The same course as NUDGE MARKETING in Bachelor 3.
In the past few years, seminal work in behavioral economics have discussed choice architecture or the “nudge” approach, seeking to design effective actions aimed at encouraging behavioral change in terms of health, wealth, happiness, etc. Thaller and Sustein (2008) illustrate a simple nudge that intends to get men stop peeing on the floor: attaching an image of an houselfy in the urinals. The result: Spillage declined 80 percent. It turns out that, if you give men a target, they can’t help but aim at it.
In this course, we will cover nudges in a broad range of areas such as tax payment, energy saving, green consumption, health choices, working performance, education and poverty. We will focus on learning from theory and practice in order to better understand how to be more successful in changing people’s behavior using choice architecture.
