Social Media Fatigue, Brainwave Tuning, Self-Cooling Tent

Today we discuss what causes a sense of social media fatigue, how scientists are tuning into our brainwaves to make us learn new tasks faster, and how a researcher invented a self-cooling tent that only needs sunshine and water to work. Social Media Fatigue “Too much overload and concerns: Antecedents of social media fatigue and the mediating role of emotional exhaustion” by Nan Sheng et al.https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S074756322200320X“New research sheds light on the underlying psychological mechanisms linked to social media fatigue” by Emily Manishttps://www.psypost.org/2023/02/new-research-sheds-light-on-the-underlying-psychological-mechanisms-linked-to-social-media-fatigue-67670Brainwave Tuning“Tuning into brainwave rhythms speeds up learning in adults” by Fred Lewseyhttps://www.cam.ac.uk/stories/brainwavelearning“Learning at your brain’s rhythm: individualized entrainment boosts learning for perceptual decisions” by Elizabeth Michael et al.https://academic.oup.com/cercor/advance-article/doi/10.1093/cercor/bhac426/6814397?login=falseSelf-Cooling Tent   “A Self-Cooling Tent that Runs on Just Water and Sunshine” by Mac Murrayhttps://today.uconn.edu/2023/01/a-self-cooling-tent-that-runs-on-just-water-and-sunshine/“Tent with a solar-powered cooling system and antimicrobial properties” researched by Alei Ahmadi Kasanihttps://uconn.flintbox.com/technologies/adf221a3-8ce8-471e-8707-18e35656301b“Evaluation of titanium alloy as heat absorber for solar-based water treatment system” by Nattadon Pannucharoenwong et al.https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352484721005473“UConn researcher invents a self-cooling tent to fight rising temperatures for campers, disaster victims” by Amy Covalhttps://www.ctinsider.com/living/article/uconn-researcher-self-cooling-tent-17741837.php“Water-cooled tent would drop camping temperatures by up to 20 °F” By C.C.
