Habit and productivity research

Here you will find editorial reviews of published research and methodological notes. They help explain what the authors actually measured and which conclusions cannot be applied to a different audience.

We do not present these articles as original population surveys or clinical studies of Sinqly. Verified national data and tests of the product’s effectiveness require separate research.

How to read sources

Check the sample, date, measurement method and limitations. Correlation does not establish causation, and findings from one group do not necessarily apply to every individual.
