Expectation vs. Reality: Why Can't We Keep Our New Year's Resolutions? Science explains.
Did you begin 2022 with promises to save more, eat or drink less, or cut back on the amount of time you spend on social media—and now, just weeks later, find that all those New Year’s resolutions have fallen by the wayside? You’re not alone. A recent study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health has found that nearly two thirds of those who make New Year’s resolutions abandon them in the first month.
Turns out, it’s notoriously difficult to keep those resolutions. But why? We reached out to two experts on human behavior—Deborah Carr, a College of Arts & Sciences professor of sociology and inaugural director of the Center for Innovation in Social Science, and Joe McGuire, a CAS assistant professor of psychological and brain sciences and director of the Cognition & Decision Lab—for some insight. They also offer some tips on how to improve your odds for sticking with your resolutions.
