- Choice Architecture
- choice architecture is a framework setting out different ways in which choices could be presented to consumers, and the impacts of that presentation on choice
- governments can use behavioural insights to design choice architecture so that citizens are nudged to opt for choice that are deemed to be in their best interest. this would achieve a socially desirable option
- farming is the tendency for people to be influenced by the context in which the choice is presented when making a decision
- Choice
- default choice: an option that is selected automatically unless an alternative is specified
- restricted choice: means offering people a limited number of options so that they are not overwhelmed by the complexity of the situation
- therefore, making poorly-thought-out decisions or no decisions at all
- mandate choice: means people are required by law to make a decision and not just go along with the default position
- Behavioural Interventions
- - Nudge
- - Smack
- - Shove
- - Hug
- Heuristics
- these are mental short cuts or rules of thumb for our decision making to help people make a quick satisfactory answer to a complex question
- these aren't always perfect + Ger G. argues that heuristics can be an optimum way to make decisions on occasions where we lack information or time
