FAQs

What is this blog?

It’s a space where I examine technology through the lens of Industrial-Organizational Psychology—exploring how design, behavior, and systems thinking shape the human experience behind digital work.

Who runs this site?
How often is content posted?
Can I contribute ideas here?
Is this research peer-reviewed?

Posts appear regularly, often expanding on my LinkedIn research series and ongoing Human Web Project studies. Each entry builds on the last, creating a growing body of work on human-centered technology, digital cognition, and the psychology of design.

While the ideas and methods here are grounded in established I/O Psychology and UX theory, the posts themselves aren’t part of a formal peer-review process. Think of this as applied research in motion—real-world analysis shared for open discussion.

I’m Tony Cromwell, M.S., Industrial-Organizational Psychologist and Founder of The Human Web Project. I lead the research and write all content, drawing on my background in psychology, UX research, and leadership design.

Absolutely. Thoughtful questions and reader insights are what keep this project human. You can reach out through my contact page or comment on LinkedIn to suggest themes, challenges, or collaborations worth exploring.

What makes the Human Web Project different?

It’s more than a blog—it’s an evolving research initiative focused on aligning technology with how people actually think, decide, and collaborate. Every post aims to bridge academic insight with practical design and leadership strategies that make the web more human.
