Analysing Impact of Covid – Habits

One interesting approach to understanding if things will change is to look at scientific research.
In this paper – How are habits formed: modelling habit formation in the real world – researchers measured how long it took to form a habit.
They found that the median time was 66 days ranging from 15 – 254 days.
Exercise habits took longer to form.
The longer it took to form the stronger the habit was.
With lockdowns now lasting longer than 66 days real habit change is likely.
