Behavioral economics for environmental policy (2008, background): “…environmental and ecological economists have already taken initiative to use alternativemodels of rationality in their analyses related to environmental policy (e.g. Gowdy, in press; Gowdy, 2007; Gowdy and Erickson, 2005; Howarth, in press; Howarth, 2006; Howarth, 2003; van den Bergh et al., 2000).”
Ecological economics: themes, approaches, and differences with environmental economics (2001, unknown): “Van den Bergh et al. (2000) discuss the neoclassical approach, survey the criticism of it, and present a first analysis of the implications of alternative models of individual behaviour for environmental policy.”
Externality or sustainability economics (2010, background): “Doing this is not easy as bounded rationality and otherregarding preferences takemany different forms (van den Bergh et al., 2000): “satisficing”, lexicographic preferences, relative welfare, status seeking, habits and routines, imitation, reciprocity, myopia, changing and endogenous preferences,…”
Discourse-based valuation of ecosystem services: establishing fair outcomes through group deliberation (2002, background): “Under conventional valuation techniques, social equity and normative judgment tends to be represented in terms of the fixed preferences of presumably sovereign individuals (Norton et al. 1998; Dryzek, 1990; van den Bergh et al., 2000).”
Identifying public preferences for land preservation using the analytic hierarchy process (2002, background): “AHP studies of these problems tend to survey a relatively small number of experts or professional resource managers: 5 respondents in Peterson et al. (1994); 12 respondents in Alho and Kangas (1997), a small, unspecified number in Stagg and Imber (1990) .”
Live Better by Consuming Less?: Is There a “Double Dividend” in Sustainable Consumption? (2005, background): “…lobby has been particularly vociferous in denouncing the economic model both for its failure to protect the environment and for the oversimplicity of its underlying conception of human nature (Schumacher 1973; Douthwaite 1992; Norgaard 1994; Daly 1996; van den Bergh et al. 2000; Wilson 2001).”
Describing human decisions in agent-based models - ODD + D, an extension of the ODD protocol (2013, background): “II.ii.e Because real-world decision-making often takes place in relation to an individual’s social environment, it can be argued that social norms or cultural values should be reflected in models of decision-making (Van den Bergh et al., 2000).”
Green nudges: Do they work? Are they ethical? (2016, background): “Moreover, risk, uncertainty and complexity characterize environmental issues, but also give rise to bounded rationality (e.g. Croson and Treich, 2014; Brown and Hagen, 2010; Van den Bergh et al., 2000).”
Environmental Policy Theory Given Bounded Rationality and Other-regarding Preferences (2011, background): “A few articles have addressed the application of behavioral theories to environmental economics focusing on particular instances (van den Bergh et al. 2000; Shogren 2002; Shogren and Taylor 2008; Venkatachalam 2008; Gowdy 2008; Brekke and Johansson-Stenman 2008).”
