Residential Energy-Efficient Technology Adoption, Energy Conservation, Knowledge, and Attitudes: An Analysis of European Countries (2012, background): “As for the impact of information campaigns, Reiss and White (2008) observe that consumers respond to both energy prices and information campaigns to reduce energy consumption, although – consistent with the weak correlation between attitude and conservation efforts pointed out above – a survey by…”
Population density and efficiency in energy consumption: An empirical analysis of service establishments (2012, background): “6 Metcalf and Hassett (1999) and Reiss and White (2008), for example, use heating and cooling degree days in analyzing energy consumption of residences.”

Residential energy expenditures and the relevance of changes in household circumstances (2015, unknown): “In contrast to the previous literature, which focused on the impact that changes in prices have on energy expenditures (e.g., Berkhout et al., 2004; Meier and Rehdanz, 2010; Rehdanz, 2007; Reiss and White, 2008), the analysis of the impact of changes in household circumstances and housing type allow”

Energy Efficiency: Economics and Policy (2010, background): “Richmond and Kaufmann (2006), for example, argue that the inclusion of energy prices explains the evolution of energy intensity in most countries, so that the dematerialization hypothesis should be rejected when prices are considered.”
Information Strategies and Energy Conservation Behavior: A Meta-Analysis of Experimental Studies from 1975 to 2012 (2013, unknown): “…might simply ignore the potential savings, or that the actual savings might be too small to be meaningful especially given the low price elasticity of electricity use in the short term (Lijesen, 2007; Reiss and White, 2008) and the small contribution of electricity cost to household expenses.”
