I'm a theoretical & applied integrative design-oriented (IDO) "cognitive" scientist and inventor. I'm interested in
- sleep onset and insomnolence (~ difficulty falling asleep),
- mental perturbance (~ repetitive thought & emotion),
- contextual information retrieval (personal information management),
- meta-effectiveness (the motivation and skills of using knowledge with information technology to solve problems and improve oneself),
- effectance (implicit motivation for competence), and
- autonomous agency
I focus mainly on effectant knowledge workers.
