Civilization VII was announced today. The Civ series is sort of like Ender’s Game, but for management rather than murdering aliens. Business school students who were good at Civ V also turn out to be better planners, organizers, and problem-solvers, in this small experiment.

Thank you for sharing. In another study, we found that better virtual reality (VR) players are more intelligent (correlation, no causation). link.springer.com/article/10…
Games & fluid intelligence: ⌨️Performance in MOBAs like League & Dota correlates with intelligence 🎮Performance in FPSs like Battlefield 3 don't show the same pattern 🏙️ In a separate small study, good Civilization V players are better planners, organizers & problem-solvers

Green tech fosters the use of green energy; however, investment costs hinder adoption. Bar et al. show that message framing can promote a serious commitment to solar panels among the broader public. #nudging #behavior #CleanEnergy nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

We recently published a paper in @NatureComms showing that minor behavioral interventions (message framing) can boost the adoption of solar panels (by up to 40%).

As a "Civilization" player for 30 years, it's not that I need another excuse, but here goes: Civ 6 players tested much higher on organizational and planning tests in a scientific study compared to their non-gaming counterparts. #c…lnkd.in/gSyRjX_x lnkd.in/ga3e7n8h
