About the author

Hi, I’m Dr. Itamar Shatz.

I created Effectiviology to provide people with research-based information about psychology and philosophy they can use.

I have a PhD from Cambridge University, where I’m an affiliated researcher and teach quantitative research methods.

I also author a related website—Solving Procrastination—where I help people understand why they procrastinate and how to stop.

My websites are read by more than a million people each year, and are linked from places like:

New York Times
Forbes
TechCrunch
Lifehacker
Harvard Business Review
