I decided to try my hand at creating an infographic. InfoGraphics are really not a new idea - just the act of translating data into an appealing visual, but infographics have become all the rage in the "twitterverse". I based this infographic on two pieces of very interesting research:
Dunn, E. W., Gilbert D. T., & Wilson T. D. (2011). If money doesn't make you happy then you probably aren't spending it right.. Journal of Consumer Psychology. 21(2), 115-125. Van Boven, L., & Gilovich, T. (2003). To do or to have: That is the question. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 85, 1193-1202. Happy to get your feedback on this graphic. To create it I used a vector drawing program called LineForm (Mac only), along with some clipart and a little Photoshop hackery. Came out pretty good I think: http://www.thepsychfiles.com/money-happiness/ I'll put a link to download the PDF on this page later today. Again, feel free to let me know if there are mistakes or areas lacking clarity. Michael Michael A.
