27、tions (决心). However, resolutions present a big opportunity for self-improvement. Fortunately, social science has some ideas about how to start a good habit and stick to it.Gary Charness and Uri Gneezy, two scientists at the University of Chicago, did some research, where 120 students were asked to t
28、ake part in an experiment about exercise habits, and each of them would get $175 in the end. The students were randomly assigned (随机分配) to three groups.
