Consumers and their behavior: state of the art in behavioral science supporting use phase modeling in LCA and ecodesign (2016, background): “It should be noted, however, that many studies evaluating these psychological models in the environmental realm, although predictively studying behavior, are still correlational in nature (Jackson 2005).”
The foundations of the environmental rebound effect and its contribution towards a general framework (2016, background): “We, however, prefer the label ‘socio-psychological’ as, following the reasoning of de Haan et al. (2005), it incorporates the cultural dimension. levels and prices, but it also has a social and cultural dimension (Hofstetter and Madjar, 2003; 304 Jackson, 2005).”
Preference and lifestyle heterogeneity among potential plug-in electric vehicle buyers (2015, background): “Preference theory, or neoclassical economic theory more generally, is silent on the motivations of consumer behavior—preferences are assumed to exist, but generally not further explored or explained by the researcher (Jackson, 2005).”
Air-conditioning Australian households: The impact of dynamic peak pricing (2010, background): “This ‘rational actor’ understanding of consumption assumes that individuals act freely and in a self-interested manner based on the information available to them in order to maximise their own wealth (utility) and avoid unnecessary labour (Jackson, 2005).”
On the Determinants of Pro-Environmental Behavior: A Literature Review and Guide for the Empirical Economist (2019, background): “Behaviors such as traveling by plane for holidays or using the car regularly are socially-accepted, guided by present norms and go unquestioned and are therefore difficult to change (Jackson, 2005; Lorenzoni et al., 2007).”
Sufficiency in energy scenario studies: Taking the potential benefits of lifestyle changes into account (2017, background): “through information campaigns or educational initiatives (Jackson, 2005).”
Sustainable development and equity (2009, background): “Behavioural change can be induced by changes in formal and civil institutions and governance, human values (Jackson, 2005a; Folke et al., 2011a; Fischer et al., 2012), perceptions of risk and causality, and economic incentives.”
Mainstreaming Sustainable Coffee (2013, unknown): “However, to understand the drivers for sustainable consumption for broader sets of consumers, not only values, norms and moral concerns, but also cost-benefit considerations, habitual behaviour and contextual factors should be taken into account (Jackson, 2005; Steg and Vlek, 2009).”
Putting practice into policy: reconfiguring questions of consumption and climate change (2014, background): “In defining the problem as one of promoting pro-environmental behaviour (DEFRA, 2008 ), policy-related documents like I Will If You Will (Sustainable Consumption Round Table, 2006 ), Changing Behaviour through Policy Making (DEFRA, 2005 ), Motivating Sustainable Consumption (Jackson, 2005 ”
Residential peak electricity demand response—Highlights of some behavioural issues (2013, background): “7 are most beneficial or least costly to them [27].”
One More Awareness Gap? The Behaviour–Impact Gap Problem (2012, methodology): “Similarly, Jackson (2005) argues that changing behaviours is difficult because individual behaviours are deeply embedded in social and institutional contexts.”
Applying the Theory of Planned Behavior to Recycling Behavior in South Africa (2018, unknown): “Over the years the TPB has been used in many research fields to understand behavior [32].”
