The researchers found that the nudges encouraged the following behaviors in participants:

• Stop and think: The timer nudge helped users reconsider their posts and allowed them a window to make edits or fix typos.
• Content feedback: The sentiment nudge caused negative reactions from users, showing that direct content feedback may not be an effective nudge.
• Pay attention to the audience: When presented with the profile picture nudge, users actively considered their audience and thus displayed greater discretion in their posting habits.
