Environmental sustainability is often depicted as an important attribute of consideration among consumers. Even if multiple barriers may prevent them from "walking the talk," a common implicit assumption that consumers think about but choose less eco-friendly route once confronted with such obstacles (e.g., higher prices).

Abstract Social distancing practices have been widely recommended to curb the COVID-19 pandemic. However, despite medical consensus, many citizens resisted adhering and/or supporting its implementation. While this resistance may stem from non-negligible personal economic costs of implementing social distancing, we argue that it also reside in more fundamental differences normative principles and belief systems, as reflected by political orientation. In a study conducted Brazil, test relative...
People tend to believe they are more (less) likely experience positive (negative) outcomes than similar others. While research has consistently shown that feeling unrealistically optimistic about future events influences the adoption of self-protective behaviors, much less is known opposite relationship. We address this gap by examining whether and how behaviors influence unrealistic optimism in context COVID-19 pandemic. Across two preregistered, high-powered experiments (N = 4,707), we...

This pre-registered work tests the replicability of seven studies covering most important effects associated with mental accounting across 5,589 participants from 21 countries. Findings support robustness original time and culture, confirming role as a critical driver human decision-making.
While political polarization in policy opinions, preferences, and observance is well established, little known about whether how such divisions evolve, possibly attenuate, over time. Using the COVID-19 pandemic Brazil as backdrop, we examine longitudinal evolution of a highly relevant polarizing policy: adherence to vaccination.
