Editorial standards
- Every post has a named author
- Money content written by nobody in particular is not worth trusting. Posts carry a byline that links to a profile with the writer’s role and background.
- Behavioral claims get reviewed
- Where a post makes a claim about psychology or behaviour, it is reviewed by our scientific advisor. A review credit means the science was checked, not that a financial product is endorsed.
- Education, not regulated advice
- PsyFi is not a licensed financial advisor. Posts on tax, credit, and investment products are general education, and say so where the distinction matters.
- Corrections over quiet edits
- When something is wrong, we fix it and note that the post was updated rather than silently rewriting history.
