Individualism is a significant barrier to climate mitigation.
We evaluated eleven behavioral interventions aimed at stimulating climate change mitigation, along cultural individualism and collectivism orientations in 63 countries (N=59,440).
The more individualistic a nation, the less its residents believed in climate change, supported mitigation policy, and intended to share information (but it it was not related to tree planting in an online task).
While some interventions were more effective in individualistic nations (decreasing psychological distance), and some in collectivistic nations (emphasizing social norms), others were effective in both (writing a letter to the future generation).
These results reveal that and the efficacy of interventions hinges on cultural contexts. https://t.co/mLaOI6xgPG

@PaulQuinnBxl @bencoates1 @DutchNewsNL Just to give you some context, the term is commonly used in NL whether you want to refer to yourself as that or not (I don't but have reluctantly accepted people will refer to me as such). There are also events and businesses using that term, so it has become the norm.

In case anyone is still following the Gino lawsuit: Judge Myong J. Joun has confirmed that the final report of the HBS investigation committee is a judicial record.

This report will thus, after appropriate redactions, be accessible to the public.

What happens if you ask ChatGTP-4 to create carved pumpkins that would be scary to behavioural scientists?

All ideas from ChatGTP-4 - it knows more about this stuff than we might have imagined! /🧵
