Citations to studies done personally would be enough. As-is, I have no reason to believe this article at all.
I think it would be better if the article said, "I've done a bunch of work with depressed people and here's a technique that seems to work. Now I want to test it. Email me if you would like to volunteer for a study that will take about five minutes per day for two weeks."
I would sign up for that study.
Huh. I'd love to see such a study done. I don't know if I have the time and energy for it right now, but I will consider it and keep this in mind.
I would be willing to run a study like this for you–it would have to be long distance/online, since I'm in Canada, but I could get some of the local LW-Ottawa people to help set up an online survey format.
I'd love to participate in such a study, I've noticed my moods go all over the place and would like to see how such a survey would work.
That would be awesome! Would you be up for a skype call to discuss this? My email is shannon dot friedman at positivevector.com, drop me a line and I'll send you my skype ID and availability.
Yes, good idea. We could treat this as a prediction, and try to actually test it.
I would also volunteer for such a study. (Un?)Fortunately, I doubt I'd make a valid sample, considering my recent lack of depressive states.
