Board Games
Response to today’s WordPress writing prompt: What’s your favorite game (card, board, video, etc.)? Why? I chose to focus on board games. I learned to play lots of board games from about age 8. One of the first board games I learned was Checkers (called Draughts) from my father. My father loved the game and… Continue reading

Relationships at work
This #ThrowbackThursday I am thinking of relationships at work. In a post more than two years ago, I noted that the relationship with one’s boss is important and that employees need to ‘manage up’ (Link to post: https://fahmeenaodetta.blogspot.com/2022/06/relationship-with-god.html?m=1).

Replicating Papers
I read a post in LinkedIn that made me aware that replication research could be a good option for publishing high-quality research in journals.

Birthday coming up
My birthday is going to be in a few days. A family member asked me what I wanted for my birthday. I did not have an answer! I was not sure what would make me happy. It is not that I don’t know what makes me happy. A lot of things do. I just couldn’t… Continue reading

Salt and Vinegar
Good afternoon from Linden, Guyana! I am in the mood for some salt and vinegar potato chips. I think the chips will make me feel better. I got sick today after eating food. Continue reading
FEATURED
I am working to be published.
I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.
About THIS BLOG
I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.
I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability. If you are here for information on my success research, click on the ‘success’ tag. If you are here for information on my hometown, click on the ‘lindenguyana’ tag.
I welcome comments. Submit your comments and feedback at any time. I prefer that you use Facebook for comments, but feel free to comment in any of the blogs or on Twitter.
