Description

Michal Kosinski, Operations Director of the Psychometrics Centre, will show how online behaviour reveals our most intimate traits, such as sexual orientation, ethnic origin, religion, political preferences, intelligence, satisfaction with life, and personality. The results are based on a large (7 million individuals) sample of Facebook users. Michal will explain how intimate details can be predicted from widely available records of online behaviour. What does that mean for our privacy online? Will you change your behaviour? We’ll also show a variety of psychological tests for you to try.
