MOTIVE: A Psychology & Criminology Field Study

motive101.com Observed source

Editorial interest 88/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An interactive site about memory, decision-making, social behaviour, and crime, combining short experiments with documented case files.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The Lab contains five short experiments, with the visible Congruency Test built around 16 colour-word trials and an explanation of the Stroop effect. The site also links psychological concepts to documented cases: Ronald Cotton’s wrongful conviction, the Exonerated Five, Kitty Genovese, and the Stanford Prison Experiment. A mind map organizes explanations of behaviour around development, environment, cognition, biology, and situation, while the page explicitly avoids scoring behaviour as the product of one cause.
