How a list carousel is built
A list carousel promises a number of things on slide one and delivers one per slide. It is the most common format among outliers because it is easy to swipe, easy to save and easy to share.
- Slide 1: the promise, usually with a number (“7 tools that…”)
- Slides 2 to N: one item per slide, a short title and one line of why it matters
- Last slide: a recap or a reason to save, follow or comment
Use it when: You have several tips, tools, mistakes or examples that each stand on their own.

Turn one of these into your own post
- Pick the structure, not the subject. Choose a carousel whose shape fits an idea you already have: the hook pattern, the slide count, the way it ends.
- Keep what made it work. Note the first-slide promise, how much text each slide carries and what the last slide asks for.
- Write it about your world. Swap in your own topic, examples and voice. Credit the creator if you borrow something specific.
Frequently asked questions
What makes a good list carousel about psychology?
A specific first slide, like “Let's Talk About CREATIVE BURNOUT” (@studio_2am, 14×), “Why ADHD Gets 5x Worse In Your 30s” (@myadhdventure, 9.4×), “7 WAYS TO GO BACK TO WORK WHEN THE STRESS IS FRYING YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM [BACKED BY PSYCHOLOGY]” (@hannagetshired, 8.4×), then a clear structure: slide 1: the promise, usually with a number (“7 tools that…”); slides 2 to n: one item per slide, a short title and one line of why it matters; last slide: a recap or a reason to save, follow or comment.
How many slides should a list carousel about psychology have?
Most psychology list carousels in the library use 9 slides, and 42% use 9–12 slides. Across all niches, carousels with 11–15 slides were the most likely to double their creator’s usual engagement (28%), and 2–3 slide carousels the least likely (16%).
What is an outlier carousel?
An outlier carousel got more likes and comments than its creator usually gets. Top Carousels divides each carousel’s likes + comments by the median of up to 20 carousels from the same creator posted around the same time, so 3× means three times that creator’s usual engagement.
