Use behavioral research to improve the feasibility and effectiveness of system-level policy

Behav Brain Sci. 2023 Aug 30:46:e153. doi: 10.1017/S0140525X23000985.

Abstract

Individual-level interventions are inadequate to address complex societal problems. Meaningful solutions require system-level policies that alter the incentives that govern behavior. We argue that individual-level interventions can help improve both the feasibility and effectiveness of system-level interventions, especially when designed as an integrated policy package.
