Articles that might be helpful
editHey @MoniqqueK! I ran into this article which discusses how the environment of a metropolitan urban area affects the likelihood of individuals picking up a cycling habit. They've got a massive sample size, so I figured it might be of some use for you. See here: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tbs.2020.02.007. D. E. Finlay (discuss • contribs) 04:32, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Neurology and Habit
editHey @MoniqqueK! I noticed that you're leaning on a significant amount of neurological mechanisms in your discussion of habit formation. I was wondering if it would be worth discussing the memory centres of the brain alongside the executive function centres. Baladron and Hamker, 2020, (see here: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ejn.14730) explored the relationship between habit and hippocampal structures in rats. --DFaol (discuss • contribs) 03:39, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
External source suggestion
editHi, super interesting chapter so far! I was just thinking James Clears book Atomic Habits explains habit formation and environmental cues super well in a pop-psychology/ lay term way. Even though it's mostly about habit stacking, it might be a beneficial external source for explaining the basics to people. If you were interested in including it as a source for readers heres a link to James website: https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits U3239091 (discuss • contribs) 23:37, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
social contribution
edithey, you've done a great job writing the chapter clearly, and I really appreciate the link you've made between environmental cues and building positive habits. One suggestion to consider is expanding on how changing/ removing environmental cues can help break unhealthy habits. This could add to the understanding of how habits are formed and disrupted great work so far :) U3236683 (discuss • contribs) 20:59, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
