ND Methods Dynamic Messaging Replication Project_Smith

This project is focused on replicating a study about how effective dynamic norms are at promoting personal behavior change regarding harmful sleep-related behavior despite this behavior seeming harmless. It has been proven that looking at electronics before bedtime can be very damaging to the quality of sleep an individual gets, yet this is a common habit that is tough to break across many age groups. We will test if a dynamic norm about others reducing their screen time before bed, changes the participants' belief that this behavior is now important, and therefore, promote personal change of the participant to this dynamic norm.
