Any aspect of the choice architecture that alters

44. EAST
Make it Social
• Show that most people perform the
desired behavior
• Use the power of social networks
• Encourage people to make a
commitment to others
47. EAST
Make it Timely
• Prompt people when they are likely to
be most receptive
• Consider the immediate costs and
benefits
• Help people plan their response to
events

We overweight small probabilities
We mentally allocate money to discrete bundles
If the norm is desirable, let people know about it.
Relate the norm to your target audience as much as possible
Consider social networks
