Nudges, regulations, and behavioral public choice

Behav Brain Sci. 2023 Aug 30;46:e164. doi: 10.1017/S0140525X23000857.ABSTRACTChater & Loewenstein have done a service to the field by raising the fundamental issue of how the political process distorts well-intentioned efforts at behavioral public policy. We connect this argument to broader research on government failure, particularly public choice theory in economics. We further suggest ways that behavioral research can help identify and mitigate such failures.PMID:37646282 | DOI:10.1017/S0140525X23000857
