Research library

The research behind the reflection.

The primary, peer-reviewed sources behind FocusMirror’s vocabulary — blocks, switches, recovery, reflection. Filter by topic; each source shows the finding, how we apply it, and the caveat we hold it under.

The limits of the evidence

What we
do not claim.

A research library is only honest if it’s clear about its edges. These are the claims FocusMirror will not make.

  • We do not diagnose attention disorders.
  • We do not claim all switching is bad.
  • We do not claim more deep work is always better.
  • We do not score human worth or discipline.
  • We do not provide medical, psychological, or educational diagnosis.
