How effective is nudging? A quantitative review on the effect sizes and limits of empirical nudging studies (2019, background): “For example, Stutzer et al. (2011) measure the Big Five personality traits and find that conscientiousness might explain some of the differences in blood donation behavior when using defaults.”
Can nudges be transparent and yet effective (2018, unknown): “Moreover, we extend findings by Steffel et al. (2016) by examining the influence of transparency in a more realistic setting where participants’ decisions have an actual consequence for them, and for the environment.”
When and why defaults influence decisions: a meta-analysis of default effects (2019, background): “As a result, policy-makers and organizations regard defaults as a viable tool to guide individuals’ behaviors (Kahneman, 2011; Johnson et al., 2012; Beshears et al., 2015; Steffel et al., 2016; Benartzi et al., 2017).”
A Review of Nudges: Definitions, Justifications, Effectiveness (2020, unknown): “Although limited to but a few contributions, research shows that making a default option transparent does not hamper its effectiveness (Bruns et al., 2018; Kroese et al., 2016; Loewenstein et al., 2015; Marchiori et al., 2017; Paunov et al., 2019; Steffel et al., 2016).”
