Do people support the core idea of degrowth? A recent paper we published show the majority do. See our press release here: www.uab.cat/web/newsroom...

Important (hopeful!) new research by @krpd.bsky.social finds, after reading a 3-5 minute explanation of an alternative approach to assessing & managing the economy--called "degrowth" or the "wellbeing economy"--large majorities of Americans and Brits support the concept. @courtghoward.bsky.social

I'm excited to announce this new study, published in The Lancet Planetary Health, which explores public support for degrowth and ecosocialist transformation. The findings are quite surprising. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

New paper out in The Lancet Planetary Health on public support for degrowth in the UK & US 🌍📊 By Dario Krpan, Frédéric Basso, Jason Hickel and myself. 🔗 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Once people understand what Degrowth is, the majority support it (74–84% in the UK and 67–73% in the US), regardless of the label. See our new research in @thelancet.com www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... @giorgoskallis.bsky.social @jasonhickel.bsky.social @F. Basso @lsepbs.bsky.social @cusp.ac.uk

How will we use our time in a #postgrowth future of sustainable wellbeing?—New study by @seanfearon.bsky.social et al models how lifestyle choices to 2050 could shape wellbeing and emissions in Finland, France & UK. ➡️ cusp.ac.uk/themes/s2/sf... cc #Degrowth #WellbeingEconomy #PlanetaryBoundaries

Powerful finding in this concise & punchy report. Over 90% of UK business professionals surveyed believe businesses should align with the principles of Doughnut Economics - but most massively underestimate how many of their peers also do. @jenimiles.bsky.social www.jenimiles.com/research/pos...

Postgrowth businesses prioritize wellbeing over profit, use democratic governance, adopt collective ownership models, and rely on non-extractive finance. In this report, we for the first time investigate professionals’ views on postgrowth business practices. www.jenimiles.com/research/pos...

This new Comment calls for psychological and behavioural scientists to study degrowth. @krpd.bsky.social @jasonhickel.bsky.social @lsepbs.bsky.social #degrowth #behaviour_change #sustainability #transformation www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🍃 Degrowth means rethinking prosperity beyond endless growth, and psychological and behavioural science has a key role to play in making degrowth actionable. Read more in this new @nathumbehav.nature.com paper by @krpd.bsky.social et al 👇 #Degrowth #PostGrowth www.nature.com/articles/s41...

There are physical limits to growth — and whether we like it or not, we’ll need to learn to live in post-growth societies. We urge psychological and behavioural scientists to study this important topic and suggest ways to develop an integrated research agenda. 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

"Can synthetic survey participants substitute for humans in global policy research?" - we answer this question in our new article published in @bescipol.bsky.social #AI #Policy @lsepbs.bsky.social journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Behavioral and decision scientists, by definition, study behavior and decision, but rarely define these concepts. A Comment by Krpan et al. calls for precise definitions of these concepts. @bfasolo.bsky.social https://www.nature.c...

In this new article published in @naturehumbehav.bsky.social we propose how #behavioural and #decision scientists should report on decision and behaviour in their research to avoid misunderstandings of these concepts. rdcu.be/d8qHj

🆕 A call for precision in the study of behaviour and decision Behavioural & decision scientists should provide precise definitions of 'behaviour' & 'decision' for more effective & ethical interventions, argue @krpd.bsky.social, @bfasolo.bsky.social & Luc Schneider 👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🆕 Agenda for psychological and behavioural science of transformative behavioral change In this #OpenAccess paper, @krpd.bsky.social argues that in order to address the world's biggest challenges, an understanding of transformative #BehaviouralChange is essential ⤵️ www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Behavioural science has neglected studying the most challenging aspect of human behaviour−transformative behavioural change. Here I overview previous research on this topic and propose how psychological and behavioural scientists could study it systematically. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
