Abstract:
Using vignette experiments, this thesis examines individuals’ decision-making in various social dilemmas. A case study of littering behavior amongst university students in Lao People's Democratic Republic is used to investigate whether individual preferences are stable across littering dilemmas and other social dilemmas. This study further investigates if a visual prompt can encourage prosocial behavior in littering situations. The results show that behavior in social dilemmas is dependent on individual preferences. Additionally, the study finds little evidence that visual prompts could be use

Begreppet hållbar utveckling innefattar flera delar som påverkas stort av de val som människor gör till vardags. Nedskräpning har flera negativa konsekvenser socialt, ekonomiskt samt ekologiskt, därför är det viktigt att kunskaper kring hur man kan påverka människors benägenhet till att kasta sitt skräp på marken istället för en soptunna prioriteras. Denna uppsats syftar till att testa hur nudging kan tillämpas i Malmö genom tre olika experiment.

The unprecedented scale and cumulative impact of individual behaviour on the natural environment threatens the balance of the world’s ecosystem (Milfont & Schultz, 2015; Veiga et al., 2016; Weaver, 2015).

While environmental issues and concerns have been understood since the 1970s, the destruction and overuse of environmental resources continues (Mehmetoglu, 2010).

Sammanfattning Geocaching är en sport och hobby som blir allt mer populär i Sverige. Antalet användare ökar ständigt och det finns inget som tyder på någon avtagande trend.  I Sverige finns Allemansrätten, som ger alla rätt att fritt röra sig i skog och mark. Den fria rörligheten gör att aktiviteter och sporter så som geocaching utövas på platser långt ut i skog och mark. Utövandet av geocaching har nu blivit så omfattande att det finns behov av vetenskapliga studier.
