Keeping It WEIRD

The article critiques the WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic) bias in psychological research and draws parallels to web development. It argues that designing for a narrow demographic leads to flawed tools and experiences, using an example of culturally biased cognitive tests. The author calls for more inclusive research and design practices to better serve a global web audience.
