Watch Professor Kristian Myrseth's TEDx talk on temptation, technology and behaviour.

Professor Kristian Myrseth spoke at TEDxUniversityofYork in March, exploring how smartphones affect our judgement and influence our behaviour. He discussed strategies for avoiding the temptations that technology puts right in front of our eyes.

Kristian's research focuses on behavioural decision-making and judgement, addressing topics such as self-control, pro-social behaviour, risk perception, and consumer finance. His research sheds light on how to manage impulses and exert self-control.
