In the online world users’ attention is a precious currency, and online environments are designed to capture and steer that attention. Yet users and legislators currently have little to say in how these environments are regulated and controlled; How can we respond to these challenges of the digital age and how might the design of the online world be improved? A team of researchers addressed these questions from the perspective of behavioral science and now propose some answers.

Low-quality and misleading information online can hijack people’s attention, often by evoking curiosity, outrage, or anger. Resisting certain types of information and actors online requires people to adopt new mental habits that help them avoid being tempted by attention-grabbing and potentially harmful content. Anastasia Kozyreva, Research Scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, argues that digital information literacy must include the competence of critical ignoring—choosing what to ignore and where to invest one’s limited attentional capacities. Critical ignoring is not merely about a skill of not paying attention, but about mindful and healthy information habits in the digital world.

Lisa Suckert of the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies argues for a more differentiated perception of the Brexit campaign and the economic identity of Great Britain. But Suckert argues that the EU also has a role to play in this: it must change in order to better understand the needs of those in favour of leaving the EU, to take countermeasures and to strengthen European cohesion.
