Blame it on deadlines for your poor productivity @ Study

Time is not on your side

Olin study finds upcoming appointments affect how people approach tasks

That was the central finding of an eight-test study published May 15 in the Journal of Consumer Research titled, “When an Hour Feels Shorter: Future Boundary Tasks Alter Consumption by Contracting Time.”

The boundaries in question are upcoming appointments, meetings, tasks, etc. And the researchers found that people facing them:

(a) perceive they have less time than in reality;
(b) perform fewer tasks as a result; and
(c) are less likely to attempt extended-time tasks that can be feasibly accomplished or more lucrative.
