How our content is made
What the website covers
Human psychology, personality, behaviour, relationships, communication and interpersonal dynamics — explained for everyday decisions, not for diagnosing other people.
How articles are researched
Each major article starts from a reader's real question, is grounded in established psychological research and theory, and explicitly separates observed behaviour, interpretation, alternative explanations and uncertainty.
How sources are selected
We prioritise peer-reviewed research, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, established professional organisations, recognised clinical guidelines, reputable academic textbooks and appropriate public-health sources. We do not use one small or controversial study to make universal claims.
How AI assistance is used
AI tools are used to help draft, structure and translate material under human editorial direction. Nothing is published on the strength of being generated: every claim and citation is checked against the source list, and the editorial status of each page is displayed honestly.
How articles are checked
Content moves through explicit states — Draft, Source-Checked, Editorial Review, Approved, Published — and is assessed for factual accuracy, source validity, originality, psychological precision, fairness, practical value, consistency, language quality and safety. Clinical topics are marked as awaiting qualified review until a real review has occurred.
Authorship and review
Pages display genuine authorship and review details. We do not fabricate psychologists, qualifications or review dates. Where no qualified reviewer has yet been appointed, the field is left unpublished and the page says so.
Corrections and updates
If you believe something is inaccurate, unfair or out of date, contact us with the page address and the issue. Corrections are reviewed by the editor, and the page's updated date reflects any substantive change.
