The cognitive science of human decision making suggests a novel kind of approach to modifying people’s behavior: nudging.
|
|
A nudge intervention implies a non-coercive and typically small change of the choice context that exploits inherent tendencies of agents in order to promote beneficial outcomes.
|
|
Studies show that—if properly motivated, devised, and tested—nudges can improve practice in internal and emergency medicine facilities.
|
|
Nudge interventions are not meant to displace more traditional tools to promote beneficial behavior (training, regulations), but to combine with them.
