Is It Just Me? : Why do we keep scrolling when we’re not even looking for anything?

 

For many of us, scrolling isn't something we consciously decide to do, rather we just pick up our phones, open an app and somehow find ourselves still scrolling 20 minutes later.

So why is it so difficult to stop when we're not even looking for anything

On Is It Just Me?, Lynlee Foo and producer Alexandra Parada unpack why we start scrolling without a clear purpose, what keeps us going once we've started, and what can actually help us break the cycle. Featuring insights from Dr. Luca-Maxim Meinhardt, Researcher at Ulm University, Germany.
