摘要

激励亲社会和亲环境行为是一项敏感的工作。虽然迫切需要改变行为以减轻气候变化的后果,但货币干预往往会产生负面的副作用。此类干预措施容易产生动机挤出效应,从而阻碍持久的积极行为改变,并对其他亲社会行为产生负面的时间溢出效应。在本研究中,我们探讨了作为政策组合的一部分实施货币干预是否可以减轻这些负面影响。在一项有 3782 名参与者参与的在线实验中,我们测试了使用使个人和社会规范突出的激励措施是否能抵消动机-拥挤效应,并探讨了这种政策组合对时间溢出效应的影响。我们发现,在控制样本特征的情况下,基于规范的劝导和货币激励的政策组合在刺激参与目标亲社会行为方面比不采取干预措施更有效。对这些干预措施的时间溢出效应进行分析后发现,政策组合可以缓解货币激励对后续亲社会行为产生负面影响的趋势。这表明,以规范为基础的激励措施是货币干预措施的适当补充,有助于产生持久的积极效果。

The more the better? Synergies of prosocial interventions and effects on behavioural spillovers
Incentivising prosocial and pro-environmental behaviours is a sensitive endeavour. While behavioural change is urgently needed to mitigate the consequences of climate change, monetary interventions often have negative side effects. Such interventions are prone to motivation crowding, which can impede lasting positive behavioural change and stimulate negative temporal spillovers to other prosocial behaviours. In this study, we investigate whether implementing monetary interventions as part of policy mixes can mitigate these negative side effects. In an online experiment involving 3782 participants, we test whether the use of nudges that make personal and social norms salient can counteract the motivation-crowding effect and explore the effects of such policy mixes on temporal spillovers. We find that policy mixes of norm-based nudges and monetary incentives are more effective at stimulating engagement in targeted prosocial behaviour than no intervention when controlling for sample characteristics. Analysing the temporal spillover effects of these interventions reveals that policy mixes can alleviate the tendency of monetary incentives to negatively affect subsequent prosocial behaviour. This indicates that norm-based nudges are suitable complements to monetary interventions, facilitating long-lasting positive effects.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Environmental Economics and Management publishes theoretical and empirical papers devoted to specific natural resources and environmental issues. For consideration, papers should (1) contain a substantial element embodying the linkage between economic systems and environmental and natural resources systems or (2) be of substantial importance in understanding the management and/or social control of the economy in its relations with the natural environment. Although the general orientation of the journal is toward economics, interdisciplinary papers by researchers in other fields of interest to resource and environmental economists will be welcomed.
