Evidence-based productivity systems

January 2, 2014 8:51 AM

Following on from the recent question on scientific personal development books, are there any scientific writings on productivity systems? I am aware of systems like GTD, and find parts of these useful, but they also seem to be "this worked for me" rather than based on significant empirical research.

I don't see how it's possible given that every person is unique and what works for one wouldn't work for another. Or like me, what works for me works for about 6 weeks before I have to start another one. I think the closest to it would be CBT techniques geared toward productivity.
