@behscientist "If products and processes are behaviorally well designed, we won’t need to nudge people to adopt them." @dilipsoman

Agreed! Looking at #designbehavior will be very important this decade! Happy and open to collaborate!
@behscientist @dilipsoman "Our greatest impact won’t come in isolated experiments on one-off decisions, but in altering the choice architecture of the complex organizations and systems those occur in." @erikleejohnson

Also, as complex systems adapt, our choice architecture should be react & be "pruned".
@behscientist @dilipsoman @erikleejohnson "I would challenge my fellow behavioral scientists to look back at ... how their findings could someday be useful in the real world—and put that idea to the test now." @DunnHappyLab

Yes, future work = researcher's next step!
@behscientist @dilipsoman @erikleejohnson @DunnHappyLab "With psychologists becoming more embedded in product development, a new code is needed to account for the unforeseen challenges of connected devices, large scale personal data collection, dissemination of misinformation, algorithmic bias, and mass surveillance. " @amybphd
👏👏

@behscientist @dilipsoman @erikleejohnson @DunnHappyLab @amybphd @PoetsAndQuants @DardenMBA Connecting #ClimateChange with people & solutions:

"1) Decreasing psychological distance for climate change by compressing space and time ...

2) Bridging the growing ideological gap on policy solutions to address climate change"

Like people, governments are inconsistent planners, with short horizons, and limited attention spans." - Eldar Shafir

An imperfect thread on some intersections of #BehavioralScience + #ComplexSystems

@DavidPerrott_ @g_arteagoitia
Some ppl recognize behavioral science is in its adolescents in a lot ways. While behavioral scientists have identified design that work really well (you know:
opt-out organ donation @ProfEricJohnson & @dggoldst
Save More for Tomorrow @R_Thaler & @shlomobenartzi)
These are wonderful & we should keep doing these!

But these are only a beginning manifestation of behavioral design & never meant to encompass all of behavioral science

The problem some see is that #nudges are designed in STABLE contexts & with specific demographics

"When making decisions, instead of asking ourselves which option will give us the best results, we should be asking which option will give us good-enough results under the widest range of future states of the world."
psyche.co/ideas/why-effi… via @psyche_the_mag
"And satisficing with an eye toward a radically uncertain future might be called robust satisficing."

Good enough seems to be a better bet - especially as we become familiar with the variability and swift state changes common to #ComplexSystems
So much of #ResilienceTheory has led us to question our #DecisionMaking ; and the hyper-focused drive toward #Efficiency rather than #Resiliency

Current problems within market transformations include:
(1) diminishing opportunities for cost-effective #energy savings
(2) there's a need for longer term savings to achieve goals
The Midwest Market Transformation initiative looks to align interests & provide the best regulatory practices given regional policy factors

Whole building system metric needs to be done to improve energy efficiency, but comes with some challenges.

Many discussions withing #SummerStudy20 remind me of @NAACP's Centering Equity in the Sustainable Building Sector (CESBS)

The burdens of #ClimateChange change are disproportionately placed on people in poverty

@CecilCorbinMark
@aceee #SummerStudy20

Which includes #buildings
For instance, as @CecilCorbinMark, demonstrates this point with:

Air Conditioning during all time high heat waves.

People in poverty may be inequitably burdened by:
Experiencing a heat wave bc their home does not have an air conditioning unit.

Heat waves can cause:
heat exhaustion,
triggering asthma,
organ damage

In elderly populations, this can result in death.
