Impact score

7/10

Summary

Published research-driven writing on attention and technology: a 30-day social-media detox case study with attention testing and QEEG; essays on the cognitive cost of generative AI; and how smartphones may reshape attention, memory, and independent thinking.

Impact metrics

Multiple public essays/case studies on davidrabinow.com and Medium spanning attention science, generative AI learning costs, and smartphone cognition.

M&T angle

Intellectual curiosity beyond shipping code — connecting human cognition to how we design and use technology.

Reflection

Writing forces hypotheses to meet evidence. The detox study especially made personal behavior change measurable rather than anecdotal.
