A nice look here at three basic scientific studies on psychological explanations for behavior. I like the analogy of Steemit and the Skinner experiment. The positive consequences of the act of posting on Steemit really do fuel more interaction with the platform as a whole. Which makes me curious: I wonder what we would find if we studied the behavior of Steemians in relation to the authority of the whales. If the whales suggested their followers do something, would they tend to obey the request? Now you've got me thinking about the psychology of Steemit. 😃
