▼ In this project, we’re exploring the potential of leveraging existing calendar application to create a web-based digital nudging service that helps its users increase productivity level. At a higher level, we are making use of our users’ free time on the calendar and nudging them to plan calendar events on tasks they’re committed to complete such as working on ”homework assignments” or ”side projects”. Therefore, upon our study participants granting us access to their calendar usage history, we implemented and experimented on a number of different methods that attempt to analyze users’ interests and deliver personalized nudges in terms of the timing to
nudge each individual and the event suggestions that would interest them. To evaluate this approach, we recruited participants with whom, after using our services, the goal is to not only incentivize them to schedule more productivity-related events on their calendars but also nourish the awareness of the productivity values calendar provides and organically increase their calendar usages.

▼ Recent work in behavioral economics has led to startling conclusions about the limits of human rationality. Contrary to the rational maximizer of utility assumed by traditional economics, actual decision makers make choices that are inconsistent with their own ends and are powerfully influenced by the context in which decisions are presented. Recently, some writers have argued that we ought to use the power of decision making context to offset the inconsistent choice phenomenon. Positions of this kind go alternatively under the banners of “Libertarian Paternalism,” “Choice Architecture,” and “Nudging.” The central idea is that people who shape the context of choices (Choice Architects) should opt to frame choices so all choices remain available (Libertarianism), but should ensure that the choosers are more likely (Nudged) to make choices that make them better off (Paternalism).
Despite an explosion in discussion of and use of nudges, philosophers and ethicists have in large part been missing from the conversation. The discussion that has taken place among philosophers has mostly been about whether there is something objectionable about nudges in general. However, as I will argue later in the dissertation, this discussion is of limited use because nudges vary widely in their ethical features.
This dissertation advances in five chapters. In chapter 1, I discuss what precisely a
nudge is and what it is not. In chapter two I outline a three-factor model for analyzing whether a
nudge is morally acceptable. In chapter three I discuss the question of when a
nudge makes a chooser better off. I finally defend a new version of the informed desire account which avoids difficulties with the standard informed desire account in the literature. In chapter four I discuss the question of when a
nudge is the best available choice, comparing it to rational persuasion, libertarianism and paternalism as possible alternatives. Finally in chapter 5 I discuss two real world applications of the nudging and how the ideas developed elsewhere in the dissertation are used to evaluate these nudges.

▼ Nudges are psychologically informed tools designed to promote behaviour change that improve health and wellbeing. As nudges gain global appeal through government administrations, their implementation as a tool within social policy are subject to stricter scrutiny. The need for inspection of the current underpinning theoretical framework of nudges is particularly critical given the diversity of nudge-type interventions and the mixed evidence for their effectiveness. The thesis first conceptualised nudge into Type 1 and Type 2 differed according to the amount of re-evaluation and re-structuring of knowledge representations needed to bring in alignment the evidence base and choice behaviour. Based on this conceptualisation, evidence base in the health domain were critically examined to determine which type of nudges is effective. The literature review showed that Type 2 nudges are more effective at sustaining behaviour change than Type 1 nudges. The thesis then explored the extent to which nudge undermines autonomy. From a welfarist perspective, nudges such as default rules bypass people's reflective thinking and make general presumption about people's choices which may not align with their underlying wishes. Indeed, two online questionnaires revealed that third-party judgements of choices made under pro-self default in pension enrolment and pro-social default in organ donation were less likely to represent the individual's "true" preference compared to when an active choice is made. The welfare consequence of implementing defaults were discussed in these respective contexts. From a transparency perspective, influencing people's behaviour without their awareness can be regarded as manipulation and hence a violation of autonomy. The online survey findings revealed that the public generally find interventions easier to identify, perceive them as more effective and acceptable, and more likely to align with people's values or interest when they are transparent, and have a positive rationale for how they work. In closing, the proposed theoretical framework corroborated the empirical findings which suggest that Type 1 nudges are more likely to bypass people's reflective thinking and infringe upon personal autonomy. Conversely, Type 2 nudges that work in a transparent manner are more likely to promote behavioural change in line with the chooser's higher-order desire. For policy makers, the important practical point is that Type 2 nudges are more likely to preserve autonomy in a way that will trigger sustainable behavioural change at a population level compared to Type 1 nudges.

▼ What distinguishes manipulative interpersonal influence from non-manipulative influence? When is it wrong to manipulate a person and what makes it wrong? I articulate a novel account according to which interpersonal manipulation is a process of influence that deliberately fails to track reasons. To manipulate a reasons-responsive person is to render her detached from an important aspect of reality, namely, her reasons or the considerations that ought to govern her behavior. This is what makes manipulation pro tanto morally impermissible (when it is). My account of manipulation provides a helpful framework for thinking through some of the philosophically neglected ethical issues arising out the application of social scientific research on human decision making in the domains of health care and public policy.

▼ Tutkimuksessa tutkitaan käyttäytymistaloustieteestä kehittynyttä julkista interventiota eli väliintuloa nimeltä tuuppaus (nudge). Tuuppaus saavutti suuren yleisön tietoisuuden vuonna 2008, kun Richard Thaler ja Cass Sunstein julkaisivat aiheesta saman nimisen kirjan. Kirjan oppeja ruvettiin nopeasti soveltamaan mm. Iso-Britanniassa, jonne perustettiin Behavioral Insights Team valtion hallinnon yhteyteen, joka edisti käyttäytymistieteellisen tiedon tuotantoa sekä sen soveltamista julkisessa päätöksenteossa. Käyttäytymistieteen soveltaminen on osoittautunut onnistuneeksi kokeiluksi Iso-Britanniassa ja Behavioral Insights Teamin arvioidut säästöt ovat ylittäneet merkittävästi sille alun perin asetetut tavoitteet. Tässä tutkimuksessa tutkitaan poikkitieteellisesti tuuppauksen historiaa teoreettisen viitekehyksen avulla. Tuuppauksen toimintalogiikkaa tutkitaan systemaattisen kirjallisuuskatsauksen avulla. Tuuppauksen perusteluita sekä sen ilmenemistä Suomessa tutkitaan asiantuntijahaastatteluilla. Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan myös aiheen soveltuvuutta hallintotieteelliseen tutkimukseen.
Tutkimuksessa havaittiin, että tuuppauksella on historiallisia kiinnekohtia hallintotieteeseen erityisesti Herbert Simonin aloittaneen empiirisen päätöksentekotutkimuksen kautta. Tuuppaus perustuu mielen oikopolkuihin eli heuristiikkoihin vaikuttamiseen, joiden löytäminen on helpottanut ihmisten päätöksenteon ennustamista. Tuuppaus ei menetelmänä rajoitu vain julkisen sektorin ohjausmenetelmäksi vaan sitä voidaan hyödyntää myös elinkeinoelämässä mm. myynnissä sekä markkinoinnissa. Julkisen sektorin näkökulmasta tuuppauksen rooli on regulaatiolle vaihtoehtoinen tai sitä täydentävä. Tuuppausta voidaan käyttää palvelujen ohjauksessa tai politiikkainstrumenttina. Tuuppauksen hyödyntäminen on pakkautunut viestinnällisiin keinoihin, jotka ovat mm. erilaiset muistutukset sekä viestinnän vaikuttavuuden kehittäminen. Suomeen käyttäytymistieteelliset menetelmät rantautuivat Juha Sipilän hallitusohjelman myötä, jossa painotettiin uusien toimintatapojen hyödyntämistä. Juha Sipilän hallitusohjelman yksi kärkihankkeista oli kokeilukulttuurin edistäminen, jonka myötä Kokeileva Suomi -hanke perustettiin. Kokeileva Suomi on ollut merkittävin konkreettinen käyttäytymistieteellisen näkökulman edistäjä Suomessa. Tuuppaus on yksi keskeisin käyttäytymistieteen soveltamisen muodoista. Suomessa käyttäytymistiedettä hyödyntäviä kokeiluja ollaan toteutettu hyvin vähän osittain yhdenvertaisuusperiaatteen tulkinnan myötä, joka nostaa kynnystä osallistaa kansalaisia kokeellisille asetelmille. Suomessa myös vahva regulaatio korvaa tarpeen tuupata. Kiinnostus käyttäytymistieteen hyödyntämistä kohtaan on kuitenkin kasvamassa.

▼ Föreställ dig att du har funderat ett tag på att börja äta mer hälsosamt, även om du inte kan förmå dig till att börja. Plötsligt en dag känns det där hälsosamma alternativet i restaurangen som ett mycket naturligt val att ta och en anledning till det kan bero på att restaurangen hade utformat en nudge som du blev påverkad av. Nudging syftar till att utforma den miljö som ett beslut fattas i för att påverka och styra individen till att ta ett visst beslut, som gynnar både individen och samhället. I nuläget används nudging i stor utsträckning inom politiken, även om andra aktörer har börjat tillämpa detta inom andra verksamhetsområden. Det finns relativt lite forskning som visar hur företag arbetar med nudging och den forskning som finns berör till stor del området hälsa- och livsstil. Denna studie syftar till att få en inblick i hur företag inom detaljhandelsbranschen tillämpar nudging inom fysisk butik och e-handelsplattform. För att ta reda på detta har studien tillämpat en kvalitativ metod där sex stycken intervjuer genomfördes med olika detaljhandelsföretag. Studien visade att företagens aktiviteter överensstämmer med nudging, dock uppfyllde de inte alla kriterier en nudge bör uppfylla. Studien påvisade även att företagens sätt att arbeta med nudging inte alltid gynnar både individen och samhället, och att flertalet av de aktiviteter som företagen verkställer gynnar företaget i slutändan.
Picture yourself wanting to eat healthier, but you have experienced adversity to start. All of a sudden while standing in the restaurant, that healthy option that seemed so far away, now seems like the proper decision to make. A reason for the sudden change may be due to a nudge that the restaurant has reinforced in order to influence you subconsciously. The concept of nudging aims to shape the environment to indirectly influence the behavior of an individual to make a certain decision that benefits both the individual and society. Today, nudging is mostly used in politics, however the use of nudging is expanding and is now being applied in other societal functions as well. The current research on how nudging is used in corporations is relatively limited and mainly focuses on health and lifestyle. Therefore, the aim of this study is to get an insight how retail companies use nudging in stores and on e-commerce platforms. In order to examine how swedish retail companies use nudging as a positive reinforcement technique, this study used a quality method where six interviews were conducted with several retail companies. The study concludes that the retail companies’ methods conform nudging, however all criterias included in the concept of nudging were not fulfilled. The study also demonstrates that companies way of working with nudging not always benefits the individual and society, and many of the activities does in the end benefit the companies.

▼ Nudge syftar till att knuffa individer till att ta val som är i enlighet med deras välmående genom att göra förändringar i den miljö inom vilken individen tar beslut. För att få människor att ta särskilda beslut kan nudge delas in i låg och hög påträngandegrad baserat på hur stor graden av påträngande är på individens autonomi. I jämförelse med låg påträngandegrad har hög påträngandegrad kritiserats för att äventyra individens fria val. Vidare har privata aktörer kritiserats för att utnyttja nudging på ett sätt som inte nödvändigtvis gynnar konsumenten ifråga. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka huruvida hög (jfr. med låg) påträngandegrad påverkar konsumenters attityder och således deras antagande av nudge när avsändaren är privat (jfr. med offentlig). Då kritiker menar att nudging kan likställas med marknadsföring undersöks även om konsumenter upplever nudging som marknadsföring när privata aktörer tillämpar nudging. I studien har en experimentell forskningsdesign (2x2) använts där hög (jfr. med låg) påträngandegrad samt privat (jfr. med offentlig) avsändare manipulerades för att undersöka effekten på konsumentattityder samt deras antagande av nudge. Studien fastställer att konsumenter tenderar att anta nudge med hög (jfr. med låg) påträngandegrad i mindre utsträckning, vilket förklaras av att deras attityd till hög (jfr. med låg) påträngandegrad är mer negativ. Privata aktörer bör således vara försiktiga vid tillämpning av nudge med hög påträngandegrad. Vidare upplever konsumenter nudging som marknadsföring i högre grad då nudge utfärdas av privata avsändare (oavsett påträngandegrad). Att uppmärksamma detta är fundamentalt för att privata aktörer ska kunna implementera nudge på ett så effektivt sätt som möjligt.
To get individuals to make specific decisions, nudge can be categorized into low and high degree of intrusiveness based on the degree of intrusiveness on the individual's autonomy. Nudge with high degree of intrusiveness has been criticized for endangering the individual’s freedom of choice. Moreover, private actors have been criticized for utilize nudging in a way that is not necessarily beneficial for the consumer. This study examines whether nudge with high (cf. low) degree of intrusiveness affect consumer attitudes and their adoption of nudge when the actor is private (cf. public). Since critics believe that nudging can be perceived as marketing, the study explores whether consumers also perceive nudging as marketing. An experimental design (2x2) was applied in this study and high (cf. low) degree of intrusiveness and private (cf. public) actors was manipulated in order to investigate the effect on consumer attitudes and their adoption of nudge. The results indicate that consumers adopt to nudge with low (cf. high) degree of intrusiveness in a greater extent, which can be explained by their negative attitude towards nudge with high (cf. low) degree of intrusiveness. Therefore, private actors should be careful when implementing nudge with high degree of intrusiveness. Furthermore,…

▼ Hållbarhet har under de senaste decennierna blivit ett kraftfullt nyckelbegrepp som präglar trafikplaneringens riktlinjer. I kombination med de åtgärder som under många år använts för att öka andelen hållbara resor inom transportsektorn, såsom forskning om elbilar och alternativa bränslen, har på senare år även beteendepåverkande åtgärder implementerats under konceptet mobility management. En aktuell teori i sammanhanget är nudge-teorin, vilken innefattar hur beslutsfattare kan hjälpa människor att fatta bra beslut genom mindre åtgärder: genom att ge dem en knuff i rätt riktning, utan att kräva ekonomiska incitament eller begränsa människors valmöjligheter (Thaler och Sunstein 2008). Nudging som koncept är fortfarande relativt outforskat inom trafikplanering, även det finns vissa likheter med mobility management. Syftet med denna studie är att öka förståelsen om konceptet nudging samt undersöka dess kvaliteter som planeringsverktyg för att påverka resebeteenden. Genom att studera fem kommuner som alla deltagit i det EU-finansierade projektet Knuffa resan rätt, undersöker uppsatsen hur nudge-åtgärder har använts samt hur användarna uppfattat att arbeta med verktyget. Uppsatsen ämnar också belysa hur de deltagande kommunerna tidigare arbetat med beteendepåverkande åtgärder och vilka skillnader de upplever med användandet av nudging som verktyg. Denna studie är en flerfallstudie, där intervjuer har använts som huvudmetod för att samla in empiriska data om de fem olika fallen som studien består av. I kombination med denna metod utfördes även en litteraturstudie, där relevant litteratur om hållbarhet och trafikplanering samlats in, samt ett teoretiskt ramverk om beteendevetenskap, där teorin om nudging lyfts fram. Resultatet från fallstudierna visar att nudging ses som ett nytt spännande verktyg bland kommunerna, även om somliga påpekar att verktyget omedvetet tidigare använts. Skillnaden avser etableringen av nudging som begrepp, samt att kommunerna nu fått en förståelse för teorierna bakom nudging, hämtade från beteendeekonomin. Dessa kunskaper har bidragit till en medvetenhet som kommer effektivisera, men också rättfärdiga, framtida beteendepåverkande projekt inom kommunerna. Däremot finns en problematik vad gäller arbetsprocessen vid nudge-åtgärder. I synnerhet krävs en mer omfattande utvärdering vilket resulterar i än mer resurskrävande projekt. Sannolikt kommer det krävas viss modifikation och flera omgångar av testprojekt innan ett bättre koncept eller modell har utvecklats som effektiviserar nudging som exklusivt planeringsverktyg. Tills dess bör insikterna om nudging användas främst som ett komplement till redan befintliga planeringsverktyg, med syftet att i stället effektivisera dessa.

▼ Dans cette thèse, nous proposons une modélisation de la réaction à un nudge (basé sur l'annonce de la contribution socialement optimale), dans le cadre de la régulation environnementale. Nous comparons l'efficacité de cet instrument à celle d'une taxe. Nous testons les prédictions théoriques obtenues à l'aide d'une expérience en laboratoire. Nous montrons que la réaction à notre nudge dépend de la sensibilité environnementale des sujets, contrairement à la taxe. Dans une autre expérience, nous testons la persistance des effets de ces instruments sur le long terme. Nous considérons également la mise en place d'un instrument mixte (taxe et nudge), afin de faire prendre conscience aux sujets (à l'aide du nudge) qu'ils sont taxés, car leur comportement n'est pas optimal. Dans le dernier chapitre, nous étendons l'analyse précédente en considérant des agents arrangés dans des réseaux fixes, et nous analysons les conséquences de la mise en place de notre nudge sur les équilibres de contribution.
In this thesis, we propose to mode! individuals' reaction to a nudge, based on the announcement of the socially optimal contribution. We want to compare the efficiency of this incentive, with the efficiency of a tax to improve environmental quality. We test the theoretical predictions we obtained in a laboratory experiment. We show that the reaction to our nudge depends on subjects' environmental sensitivity, contrary to the tax. ln a second experiment, we test the existence of persistent effects of these two instruments in the long term. We also consider a mix tool (tax and nudge), to raise subjects' awareness (with the nudge) that they are taxed because their behaviour is not optimal. ln the last chapter, we extend our analysis considering agents arranged in fixed networks. We analyze how the equilibria are shaped under the implementation of our nudge.

▼ Today, organizations are facing rising costs caused by increased employee sick - leave. A way to motivate employees to choose a healthier lifestyle is for the employer to offer wellness incentives. However, not too many employees are taking advantage of the incentives. According to the Transtheoretical Model of Health Behavior Change (TTM) , people are at different stages in their behavior change process. By knowing their personal obstacles to change, organizations can use nudge management and wellness incentives to help their employees to choose a healthier lifestyle. In order to get some answers, we conducted qualitative interviews at the Swedish Migration Agency. The result of our research showed seven main obstacles, and in this thesis we have explored dif erent nudges organizations can use to promote health and to lower sick - leave.

▼ Phishing is a reoccurring issue, which uses social engineering as an attack strategy. The prevention of these attacks is often content-based filters. These solutions are however not always perfect, and phishing emails can still be able to get through the filters. We suggest a new strategy to combat phishing. The strategy is a technical platform which uses the psychology concept nudge. Nudge is a concept that can be used to change a certain behaviour, in this case to make people more cautious when reading their emails.The objective of this thesis is to suggest a nudge using a technical platform regarding possible desensitization. The nudge aims to change email related behaviours to more healthy ones. To get indications if the nudge has benefits, a qualitative survey was made. When using a psychology-based solution, one must address the possibility of desensitization. To minimize possible desensitization, a quantitative analysis was made where different ways to minimize desensitization were assessed. Data for this analysis was gathered by a simulation modeling, where the simulation aimed to replicate a user performing email related events.The conclusion of the simulation results showed that a whitelist approach was the most appropriate for our nudge. The approach minimized the chance of possible desensitization while having a low risk of not performing a nudge when needed. The conclusion of the survey results was that there was an indication of behavioural change and that there existed a risk of possible desensitization.
Nätfiske är ett återkommande problem, som använder sig av social manipulation som attackstrategi. Försvar mot dessa attacker är ofta innehållsbaserade filter. Dessa lösningar är inte alltid perfekta, då nätfiske kan ibland gå förbi filterna. Vi föreslår en ny strategi för att bekämpa nätfiske. Strategin är en teknisk plattform som använder det psykologiska konceptet nudge. Nudge är ett koncept som kan användas för att ändra ett visst beteende, i detta fall för att göra människor mer försiktiga när de läser sina emails.Syftet med detta arbete är att föreslå en nudge i en teknisk plattform där man tar hänsyn till eventuell desensibilisering. Nudgens mål är att ändra emailrelaterade beteenden så att beteendena blir säkrare. En kvalitativ undersökning gjordes för att få indikationer om nudgen har möjliga fördelar. När man använder en psykologibaserad lösning så måste man ta itu med möjligheten av desensibilisering. En kvantitativ analys gjordes där olika sätt att minimera desensibilisering bedömdes, för att sedan kunna minimera desensibiliseringen. Data för denna analys samlades in genom en simuleringsmodellering, där simuleringens syfte var att replikera en användare som utför email-relaterade händelser.Slutsatsen av simuleringsresultaten visade att en whitelist-metod var den mest lämpliga för vår nudge. Metoden minimerade risken för möjlig desensibilisering, samtidigt som den hade en låg risk att inte utföra en nudge när det behövdes. Slutsatsen av undersökningsresultatet från enkäten var…

▼ Cette thèse s'intéresse à la question des changements de comportement, et notamment à la manière dont cette question s'applique au domaine informatique à travers les technologies persuasives. Dans un contexte applicatif particulier, celui de la rénovation de logements, nous nous intéressons au rôle que peuvent jouent les informations à disposition des utilisateurs sur leur façon d'élaborer leur projet de rénovation. Une façon de modifier les comportements des utilisateurs est de modifier les buts qu'ils poursuivent, soit de manière explicite, soit de manière implicite. Si l'efficacité de la première a été montrée en contexte expérimental, elle semble toutefois moins adaptée à des situations naturelles. Nous proposons donc une approche visant à modifier les buts poursuivis par les utilisateurs implicitement.Dans cette optique, nous travaillons d'abord à l'emploi de normes sociales injonctives pour inciter les utilisateurs à travailler particulièrement sur la rénovation énergétique. Au cours d'une première étude, nous comparons norme sociale injonctive et objectif arbitraire à une condition contrôle. Nous nous intéressons à la performance des participants à la tâche (améliorer la performance énergétique d'un logement) ainsi qu'à la manière dont le projet se met en place tout au long de l'étude. Les résultats montrent que norme sociale et objectif explicite ont un effet similaire sur la performance à la tâche mais différent sur l'organisation temporelle. On observe ainsi des comportements plus stables dans le cas où la norme sociale est activée, et un effet qui semble globalement moins artificiel que dans le cas où on fixe un objectif explicite à l'utilisateur. Cette première étude met également en avant la nécessité pour la norme d'être saillante, ou activée.Nous nous intéressons donc dans une deuxième étude à ce qui caractérise la saillance du message normatif.Dans la première étude, nous avions utilisé deux types d'informations différentes : le message normatif et des indices concrets relatifs au comportement désirable. Cette deuxième étude vise à distinguer ces deux informations et tester leur effet respectif. Les résultats montrent que le message normatif semble avoir un effet légèrement plus important sur la performance mais aussi plus artificiel sur les comportements des utilisateurs.Dans une troisième étude, nous nous intéressons aux caractéristiques du message, en faisant l'hypothèse qu'un message mieux perçu pourrait appuyer la saillance de la norme qu'il porte. Dans le cadre d'une collaboration avec des chercheurs en intelligence artificielle nous avons ainsi testé différents types de cadrage afin d'évaluer leur effet respectif sur la perception de l'argument auquel ils s'appliquaient.Les résultats, mitigés, montrent essentiellement que le style argumentatif (rationnel et factuel plutôt qu'émotionnel ou moral) semble avoir un poids conséquent sur la perception de l'argument. En outre, la thématique abordée par l'argument semble jouer un rôle non négligeable et devrait donc faire l'objet d'une attention…

▼ The greatest leverage of reducing anthropogenic climate impact lies within curbing the increasing trend of global meat consumption. As such, there is a need for new types of tools within policy and business, as targeting food consumption with standard policy measures has proven difficult. This study examines the role of altering choice architectures in grocery stores in Sweden by implementing three types of so-called nudges with the purpose of making consumers reduce their minced beef consumption by supplementing it with carrots and beans. The effects of the nudges were tested through a natural field experiment involving 26 ICA stores in Stockholm-Mälardalen region. The results show a significant increase of consumption of carrots and beans. To determine if the nudge-intervention has an effect (a reduction) also on the minced beef, more research is needed. The study provides insights of what could work when it comes to applying nudges in food stores and concludes that nudging has the potential of being a valuable tool for policy makers and business leaders to steer consumers towards more sustainable consumption. Moreover, the study contributes to the understudied field of green nudging and natural field experiments in food stores.

Helping Smartphone Users Manage their Privacy through Nudges.

▼ The two major smartphone platforms (Android and iOS) have more than two mil- lion mobile applications (apps) available from their respective app stores, and each store has seen more than 50 billion apps downloaded. Although apps provide desired functionality by accessing users’ personal information, they also access personal information for other purposes (e.g., advertising or profiling) that users may or may not desire. Users can exercise control over how apps access their personal information through permission managers. However, a permission manager alone might not be sufficient to help users manage their app privacy because: (1) privacy is typically a secondary task and thus users might not be motivated enough to take advantage of the permission manager’s functionality, and (2) even when using the permission manager, users often make suboptimal privacy decisions due to hurdles in decision making such as incomplete information, bounded rationality, and cognitive and behavioral biases. To address these two challenges, the theoretical framework of this dissertation is the concept of nudges: “soft paternalistic” behavioral interventions that do not restrict choice but account for decision making hurdles. Specifically, I designed app privacy nudges that primarily address the incomplete information hurdle. The nudges aim to help users make better privacy decisions by (1) increasing users’ awareness of privacy risks associated with apps, and (2) temporarily making privacy the primary task to motivate users to review and adjust their app settings. I evaluated app privacy nudges in three user studies. All three studies showed that app privacy nudges are indeed a promising approach to help users manage their privacy. App privacy nudges increased users’ awareness of privacy risks associated with apps on their phones, switched users’ attention to privacy management, and motivated users to review their app privacy settings. Additionally, the second study suggested that not all app privacy nudge contents equally help users manage their privacy. Rather, more effective nudge contents informed users of: (1) contexts in which their personal information has been accessed, (2) purposes for apps’ accessing their personal information, and (3) potential implications of secondary usage of users’ personal information. The third study showed that user engagement with nudges decreases as users receive repeated nudges. Nonetheless, the results of the third experiment also showed that users are more likely to engage with repeated nudges (1) if users have engaged with previous nudges, (2) if repeated nudges contain new in- formation (e.g., additional apps, not shown in earlier nudges, that accessed sensitive resources), or (3) if the nudge contents of repeated nudges resonate with users. The results of this dissertation suggest that mobile operating system providers should enrich their systems with app privacy nudges to assist users in managing their privacy. Additionally, the lessons learned in this dissertation may inform designing privacy…

▼ Obesity has become a major issue in advanced societies having serious impacts on various social as well as economic levels. In addition to the personal costs of obesity leading to serious and chronic diseases, obesity projects additional burdens upon society including lack of productivity, often resulting in increased dependence on governmental benefits, as well as increasing health care costs, most of which are paid for by taxes. This phenomenon has become especially prevalent in the United States and the United Kingdom, with both countries attempting to reduce obesity levels with programs that utilize varying levels of paternalism. As the costs to these societies have become unsustainable, both have begun to experiment with behavioral insights to address the faults in their current programs. The resulting policy tool, known as a nudge, focuses on consumers' choice environments that contribute to poor health decisions and reframes the choice structures to intuitively encourage healthier choices. While both countries continue to study the use of nudges to reduce obesity, there are large differences in how each country has utilized nudges as a policy tool. For this large-scale problem and others like it, having the resources to develop policy solutions is not enough to resolve the problem: a country must be able to properly implement the solutions for them to be effective. This paper examines the development of nudging in each country and determines whether their differences in policy application reflect a broader problem of obesity-related policy intervention.

▼ Nowadays, consumers are being exposed to a large selection of food alternatives with an aim of helping with health matters. For that reason, the consumption of healthy food has been increasing among people, but at the same time, the consumption of unhealthy food has expanded. Due to the advanced technology, there is more information available about health, which makes the consumers’ knowledge about diseases caused by their way of living to grow. Simultaneously, there has been studies proving that consumers’ choices do not often resemble their attitudes. Since consuming healthy food is more popular nowadays, this study had the aim of examining if consumers will choose a grocery store based on different attributes. The study is based on several theories that are the starting point for the study’s research questions which are; Does the selection of healthy food affect consumers’ choice of a grocery store? Does nudging of healthy food affect consumers’ choice of a grocery store? The theories that are used in this study are nudge theory, libertarian paternalism theory, behavioral economics, theory of reasoned action, theory of planned behavior, social marketing theory, choice architecture, cognitive architecture and status quo. The data was collected through a questionnaire, where different questions had the aim to measure what affects consumers when choosing a grocery store. In total, the study gathered a sample of 136 responses whereas 8 of them were removed from the study as outliers. The outcome of this study is based on two independent variables; healthy food and nudging and one dependent variable; choice of grocery store. These variables are composite variables created from a range of other variables. The composite variable healthy food is created from variables checklist, avoidance of unhealthy/unnecessary food, people’s affection, healthy thinking, food habits, attitude of healthy eating, past purchasing behavior, intention and behavior, same groceries and new groceries. The composite variable nudging is created from variables product placement, memory, product placement affection on consumers’ purchasing behavior and visible healthy food. The dependent variable choice of grocery stores was created from the variables; number of healthy food alternatives, price of healthy food, marketing of healthy food and place of grocery store. This study was analyzed in the data program STATA where a multiple linear regression was used to test the hypotheses. According to the result from the regression analysis, there is a significant level between healthy food and consumers' choice of grocery stores. In addition to that, the study shows that there is a significant level between nudging and consumers' choice of grocery stores. Thus, the null hypothesis of this study was rejected.

▼ Perinteinen taloustiede ja behavioraalinen taloustiede eroavat toisistaan ihmisten rationaalisuusoletuksen perusteella. Perinteinen taloustiede luo kuvan rationaalisesti toimivasta homo ecnomicuksesta, joka osaa valinnoillaan aina maksimoida hyötynsä. Behavioraalinen taloustiede puolestaan huomioi myös inhimillisen käyttäytymisen realiteetit. Sen mukaan taloudessa toimivat homo sapiensit eli ihmiset, jotka eivät aina osaa valita itselleen sopivinta vaihtoehtoa ja näin ollen tarvitsevat ajoittain yhteiskunnan ohjausta valinnoilleen.
Ihmisten epärationaalisuutta voidaan perustella lukuisilla eri esimerkeillä. Harhavalinnat voivat aiheutua niin kognitiivisen kapasiteetin rajallisuudesta kuin ympäristön ja tahdonheikkouden aiheuttamista houkutuksistakin. Oleellista päätöksentekijöille onkin havaita valintojen harhat ja luoda oikeanlaiset ohjailukeinot eli valinta-arkkitehtuurit yksilöille. Tätä ohjailua kutsutaan paternalismiksi. Paternalismi voi olla luonteeltaan kovaa ja rajoittavaa tai pehmeää ja ohjailevaa. Tässä työssä keskitytään kuitenkin paternalismin hentoisimpaan muotoon eli liberaaliin paternalismiin, jossa erilaisten keinojen avulla pyritään ohjailemaan ihmisiä kohti optimivalintaa siten, että päätöksenteosta ei aiheudu yksilöille kustannuksia ja valinnan vapaus säilyy heillä itsellään.
Tavoitteena on siis empiiristen näyttöjen perusteella osoittaa ihmisten ajattelun harhat ja heikkous vastustaa houkutuksia. Olemassa olevan kirjallisuuden ja tutkimusten avulla voidaankin kattavasti osoittaa behavioraalisen taloustieteen havainnot ihmisten käyttäytymisestä todeksi ja siten ainakin osittain perustella liberaalin paternalismin hyödyllisyyttä yhteiskunnassa. Useissa tilanteissa yhteiskunnan onkin tehtävä ainakin jokin valinta yksilön puolesta. Tällöin päätöksentekijöiden tulisi kiinnittää paljon huomiota rationaalisen ohjailukeinon valintaan. Ohjailun avulla voidaan suhteellisen pienillä kustannuksilla vaikuttaa suuresti ihmisten elämään. Liberaali paternalismi tarjoaakin päätöksentekijöille paljon mahdollisuuksia ja toimivien ohjailukeinojen luomiseen kannattaisikin tulevaisuudessa suunnata enemmän resursseja.

▼ This study looks at potential polycentric solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emission by engaging and nudging residents to lower their household s electricity consumption. More specifically, it seeks to nudge respondents towards energy conservational behavior using libertarian paternalism ideology and the principles of choice architecture. The study is focused on subjects in Finland, where the electricity bill is not a financial burden and society is environmentally responsible. Based on the limited data provided by an energy company, the analysis provides insights on the patterns of household s electricity consumption and comparison of electricity usage between household s with smart solutions and without. Based on previous research and findings of the study, a prepaid contract is suggested to nudge people to more sustainable behavior in regards to their energy consumption with long-term effects and without the need for any financial incentives.

▼ Bakgrund: Den ökade medvetenheten om miljöpåverkan leder till att organisationer i högre utsträckning arbetar för att uppnå FN:s hållbarhetsmål genom att säkerställa en hållbar värdekedja. Dels för att allt fler e-handelsföretag vill minska sin klimatpåverkan men även för att hållbarhet har blivit ett konkurrensverktyg. Forskning visar att konsumenter vill agera hållbart men att de inte alltid tar beslut i linje med deras önskan om att agera hållbart. För att influera konsumenter till ett mer hållbart beteende har e-handelsföretag möjlighet att titta på beteendeekonomi och nudging som ett arbetsverktyg. En nudge är ett sätt att påverka individers beteende i syfte att få dem att fatta ett visst beslut. Tidigare studier inom beteendekonomi visar på att sättet ett val presenteras påverkar vilket val individer väljer. Syfte: Denna studie ämnar undersöka hur e-handelsföretag kan använda sig av nudging på sin hemsida genom att utforma beslutssituationen på ett sätt som påverkar konsumenter till att välja miljöfrakt. Metod: Denna kvalitativa tvärsnittsstudie utgår från en abduktiv ansats. Studien bygger på tidigare forskning, fem semistrukturerade kvalitativa intervjuer med e-handelsföretag samt en semistrukturerad fokusgrupp bestående av sex konsumenter. Slutsats: Studiens empiriska resultat indikerar att det finns ett intresse för miljöfrakt hos e-handelsföretag. Vidare visar studien på att konsumenter uppfattar miljöfrakt som något positivt. Studien visar även på att nudging som verktyg med fördel kan användas för att uppmuntra konsumenter till att välja miljöfrakt framför andra typer av fraktalternativ. Resultatet av studien är en praktisk rekommendation kring designen av beslutssituationen vid checkouten för e-handelsföretag inom modebranschen, i syfte att uppmuntra konsumenter till hållbara beslut.

▼ It is commonly believed that paternalism is at odds with libertarianism. Recent literature has suggested that there are forms of paternalism which are acceptable to libertarians: namely “nudging”, sometimes even referred to as “libertarian paternalism”. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, to investigate the taxonomical question of how libertarianism, paternalism and nudging relate to each other. Secondly, to investigate whether, and if so when, paternalism is compatible with libertarianism. I argue that any action which is not coercive is compatible with libertarianism. Thus, any non-coercive paternalist action is compatible with libertarianism. I also argue that there are several paternalist action types, such as nudges, informing and incentivizing, which are not coercive, and thus are compatible with libertarianism.

▼ Samtidigt som konsekvenserna av förändringar i klimatet blivit alltmer uppenbara för varje år som gått är det tydligt att en stor del av miljö- och klimatproblematiken grundas i ohållbara beteenden hos en minoritet av världens befolkning. Ett viktigt steg mot en hållbar utveckling är därför att förändra dessa beteenden och göra dem mer hållbara. Nudging, en teori om människors beslutsfattande och beteendeförändring, syftar till att arrangera en valsituation på ett sätt som gör det enkelt att fatta önskvärda beslut. Denna uppsats undersöker nudgings potential att uppmuntra till mer miljövänligt och resurssnålt beteende genom att studera huruvida skyltar kan påverka människor att använda mindre pappershanddukar vid toalettbesök. Resultaten från undersökningen visar att en skylt kan skapa en statistiskt signifikant minskning i pappershandduksanvändning.

▼ This dissertation comprises of essays in the field of development economics. Leveraging insights from psychology, mingling them in economic theory, and testing them through experimental (and quasi-experimental) methods, I study three policy questions: Does grading system affect student performance? Does symbolic incentive offered in a competitive game increase student attendance? Does institutional quality affect the provision of public goods and the perception of tax as a burden?
In the first chapter, I study whether level of discretization of reported grades to students affect their academic performance? This is the first experimental study to test how performance reporting using a coarse grading scale: {A,B,C,D,F} (Letter Grading System or LGS - the treatment group) or a very fine grading scale: [0,100] (Numerical Grading System or NGS - the control group) affects student performance. While I find no difference in average student performance between LGS and NGS, this negligible effect, however, masks important gender-differences in student performance with female students responding more positively to NGS and male students responding more positively to LGS. The theoretical model presented in the paper throws light on a possible mechanism (risk-attitudes) causing these gender-differences. This evidence is informative of the role that the chosen grading scale may have played in the widely seen gender-gap in student learning.
In the second chapter, I report the results of a field experiment conducted to study how student attendance changes when transformed into a strategic-decision using a competitive game setting. The game awarded points to students based on their daily attendance. Each student could track the weekly status of his/her game points, along with the game points of every other student in the class, thereby bringing an explicit strategic element to the intervention. The scoring rule had a novel weighting mechanism, designed to lower absenteeism by a greater degree in the weeks when students are more likely to be absent. This experiment was conducted with 217 classrooms, divided into two treatments (Group Game and Classroom Game) and one control group of a not-for-profit educational institution in India. Symbolic rewards were provided to the winners of the game in the treatment classrooms. The results show a significant positive effect on students whose attendance was greater than 75% while not much effect on the rest. This provides evidence of how the use of a simple competitive game with low-cost, symbolic rewards can efficiently and positively impact student attendance.
In the third chapter, coauthor Alberto Chong and I study the role that institutional quality plays in determining government’s effectiveness in delivering public goods and in, therefore, mediating the effects of higher taxation in an economy. This study is inspired from the observation that poorer countries, despite having a much smaller public sector and correspondingly a smaller tax burden than richer countries,…

▼ Since a large portion of our behaviour is automatic, what kind of agency and control do we humans have, and what are its limits? I address the question both from a historical perspective (through Aristotle’s philosophy) and a contemporary approach (engaging with recent empirical research).
I begin with Aristotle’s action theory, which has remarkable resonances with current issues. He claims our goals are determined by non-rational habituation, so the question arises how we can control our life’s ends if they cannot be set rationally. I argue that for Aristotle we control our goals insofar as we carefully shape our habits. Care for habits belongs, not just to the individual (who cannot care for her habituation’s first stages), but primarily to the political community. So individual autonomy depends on social care practices; and reason can establish goals not directly, but by carefully shaping habits.
I go on to argue that empirical evidence justifies a broadly similar account.
Intellectualists hold that all actions must be produced through reflection (i.e. a top-down coordination by reference to a goal); anti-intellectualists argue that some actions can be produced without reflection. Anti-intellectualists receive preliminary empirical support from evidence that there is a kind of normativity proper to automatic (i.e. reflection-independent) processes, which reveals the existence of automatic control. Is automatic control sufficient for the production of intentional actions? Anti-intellectualists have often pointed to skilful bodily action to argue that it is, but I contend that even skilled action requires top-down, reflective control, confirming recent intellectualist proposals.
So anti-intellectualism cannot find support in skilled-action phenomena; but it may find more promising evidence in decision-making studies. Framing effects in decision-making reveal that we control intention-formation processes automatically through background control: intuitive sense- making processes that are nonetheless susceptible to cognitive biases largely incorrigible by reflection. However, smart environmental design is able to protect intuitive control over decision-making. This supports a thesis called indirect intellectualism: like Aristotle, we should conceive of individual control over action as significantly dependent on reflectively shaping our practical environment.

▼ This dissertation comprises three essays that empirically evaluate the effects of policy interventions that have been inspired by insights from behavioral economics. The essays apply experimental or quasi-experimental designs to environmental, health and labor issues, in field and laboratory settings. They analyze if these nudges are effective in market environments, and if they are likely to continue to have the impact as their popularity continues to grow. The first chapter analyzes policy banning pharmaceutical representatives from providing off-site meals to doctors. It examines the effect on the type of medications prescribed, pharmaceutical and overall medical spending, and self-reported health measures, using the Medical Expenditures Panel Survey, and individual level difference-in-differences regressions. The analysis focuses on medications which are still on-patent but are in the same class as a generic medication, and finds that the regulation significantly decreased the likelihood that an individual took one of these medications, implying savings. There is no adverse impact on rates of physical or mental health, or whether they report that health limits daily activities.
The second and third chapter use laboratory experiments to test how awareness impacts nudges. Awareness has been suggested as a way to make defaults more ethical, but could make these nudges less effective. Awareness of the impacts of a
nudge could also occur as subjects gain experience, providing information simulates experience.
The second employs a loss framing
nudge in a real effort task. I replicate the standard empirical finding that loss framing (penalties) increases performance (in comparison to bonuses), but show that this effect disappears when participants are aware of the
nudge. Additionally, I find that the majority of subjects prefer gain framing. Awareness increases the preference for gain framing.
In the third a default
nudge is employed in a carbon offsets purchase decision. All
subject are given the option to buy an offset. One option is randomly selected. Subjects in the Aware condition then see information about the typical impacts of defaults. I find that the default was not effective at increasing purchases, and that information did not make it more likely that subjects change their selection.

▼ This dissertation consists of three essays that evaluate the effectiveness of interventions promoting residential energy conservation. I study three programs that were implemented as natural field experiments by energy utilities in the United States. In the experiments, households were randomly assigned to a control group that was not exposed to the program or to treatment groups that participated in the program(s). The main objective of this research agenda is to generate insights that help design effective energy policy.
In the first chapter, I study a program that provided weekly emails containing information about a customer's natural gas expenditure to more than 150,000 households in California. I find that exposure to the emails caused significant reductions in natural gas use. Additional analyses suggest that households changed their heating behavior in response to the program. Furthermore, reductions in usage persisted over a 20-month treatment period.
The second chapter focuses on the interaction between a voluntary financial rewards program for reductions in energy use and the Home Energy Report (HER), a repeated mailer that compares a recipient's consumption to that of similar households. We test whether the introduction of financial incentives increased energy savings by households that also received the HER. Our findings show that the two programs complemented each other in several important ways and promoted larger energy savings by a broader set of customers than the HER alone.
Finally, the third chapter investigates whether social nudges, such as the HER, are
subject to crowd out effects. Crowd out occurs when the effectiveness of a new social
nudge is negatively affected by previous exposure to an existing social
nudge. We use two distinct social nudges in an experiment in which households are exposed to no
nudge, one
nudge in isolation, or both nudges in combination. To determine the extent of crowd out, we compare the effect of the combined intervention to the summation of the effects of each
nudge in isolation. We do not find evidence of crowd out. In contrast, the combined effect was marginally larger than the sum of the individual effects, although the difference is not statistically significant.

▼ Dans cette thèse, nous utilisons l’approche Nudge pour résoudre des problèmes comportementaux auxquelles les entreprises peuvent être confrontées. Dans le premier chapitre, nous commençons par exposer certains des problèmes que l’économie classique peine à résoudre, puis nous présentons l’approche Nudge et expliquons en quoi elle peut être une alternative efficace. Dans le deuxième chapitre, nous utilisons le Nudge pour changer la formulation d’invitations à participer à des enquêtes sur internet afin d’en augmenter le taux de participation. Nous trouvons que la plupart des Nudges parviennent à convaincre les individus de laisser leur adresse e-mail, mais que seuls ceux qui reconnaissent leurs efforts améliorent le taux de participation. Dans le troisième chapitre, nous utilisons le Nudge pour développer des enquêtes de satisfaction très courtes, administrées chaque mois, et comparons les résultats ainsi obtenus à ceux d’une enquête plus longue en fin de stage. Nous trouvons que la satisfaction lors du premier mois est fortement corrélée à la satisfaction finale, ce qui rend possible de détecter d’éventuels problèmes très tôt. Dans le chapitre final, nous utilisons les Nudges pour rendre une tâche simple plus ludique, une approche appelée « gamification ». Les Nudges augmentent la productivité autant que des incitations monétaires, sans coûter autant que ces dernières. Par ailleurs, les Nudges améliorent la motivation intrinsèque quand ils ne sont pas implémentés en même temps que les incitations. Nous concluons avec des conseils pratiques pour les décideurs souhaitant essayer le Nudge.
In this work, we use the Nudge approach to solve behavioral problems that business firms may have to face. In the first chapter, we start by exposing some issues that the classical economic approach struggles with, before presenting the Nudge approach and why we believe it is relevant to the problems that businesses still face today. In the second chapter, we change the formulations of the invitations to participate to web surveys, using Nudge principles, in order to improve participation rate. Most Nudges increase the proportion of individuals giving their e-mail address, but only those that acknowledge the respondent's effort increase participation rate. In the third chapter, we use the Nudge approach's teachings to improve the measurement of job satisfaction. We measure the satisfaction of interns every month during their internships with a very short survey, and compare it to a lengthy survey administered at the end of the internship. We find that satisfaction during the first month of the internship is highly correlated with final satisfaction, which makes it possible to detect potential problems very early. In the final chapter, we use Nudges to improve productivity by making a simple task more playful, a process called “gamification”. Nudges generate the same increase in productivity as the monetary incentives, without the added cost of the latter. Moreover, unless monetary incentives are implemented at the same time, Nudges…

▼ This thesis aimed to understand current marketing practices, knowledge, facilitators and barriers of
nudge marketing of fruits and vegetables (FV) by food service (FS) management in post-secondary institutions. Nudging uses subtle marketing techniques to promote purchasing of products or behavior changes without coercing customers or forbidding options. Twelve participants from 10 institutions were recruited from the Canadian College and University Food Service Association for semi-structured phone interviews. Quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed via thematic and descriptive analyses. All institutions were marketing FV in various ways. Six out of 10 were implementing nudging for FV. Feasibility of nudging depended on the type of
nudge. Nudges perceived as difficult were typically costly and required structural changes and/or communication with external departments. Nudges perceived as easy were least costly and required little coordination. The results provide needed information on the most acceptable and feasible FV
nudge interventions for future testing.

▼ This thesis explores the question: Why do even those with environmental awareness and attitudes often fail to act in an environmental manner? This question begs a second: How can environmental behaviors be engendered? To explore these questions, I first worked to understand the current state of the environment to determine if there is an environmental crisis. The evidence suggests there is an environmental problem, and further, that a majority of humans are aware and opposed to environmental degradation. I then study the environmental value-action gap, or the gap between an individual's environmental attitudes and lack of environmental action. To understand this phenomenon, I studied the individual barriers to action presented in the literature. While compelling, I believe a study of the systemic barriers must also be addressed and discussed the ways in which structural factors work to hinder environmental action. I conclude my thesis with a novel discussion of the use of
nudge theory to remove the gap between environmental values and action. However, I note there must be the development of a Critical
Nudge Theory, within a new world vision—an Ecosocial vision—to work toward a truly socially and ecologically harmonious future.
