Abstract

Abstract Behavioural interventions, or nudges, can be seen in public policy as a tool to help local governments in a variety of areas. The main advantages of nudges include the low costs associated with their implementation and, on the other hand, the relatively high effect if the factors acting on individuals are correctly identified (e.g., the salience factor associated with the individual’s bias, social norms, or how the individual’s surroundings react). Before implementing a behavioural intervention, it is necessary to know, the motives or causes of the behaviour of the inhabitants in the city. The paper is specifically devoted to the nudges that can be implemented in the maintenance of public spaces and waste management. The aim of the paper is to find out the attitudes of citizens towards the problems in maintenance of public spaces and waste management caused by human behaviour as well as possible solutions in the form of selected types of nudges. The paper identified several reasons that can contribute to an increase the level of citizen participation in waste separation and improve the quality of maintenance of public spaces, such as where the nudging is implemented (factor of affect), attractiveness of the nudge (factor of silence) and the commitment of individuals. The selected behavioural interventions show that there is a willingness on the part of the citizens in a local municipality to accept nudges and the citizens tendency to change behaviour in the desired way.
在公共空间维护和废物管理中公民对冰箱的态度
抽象行为干预,或轻推,可以在公共政策中被视为在各个领域帮助地方政府的工具。轻推的主要优势包括与实施相关的低成本,另一方面,如果正确识别了作用于个人的因素(例如,与个人偏见、社会规范或个人周围环境如何反应相关的突出因素),则会产生相对较高的效果。在实施行为干预之前,有必要了解城市居民行为的动机或原因。这篇论文专门讨论了在维护公共空间和废物管理方面可以实施的推动措施。该论文的目的是了解公民对人类行为造成的公共空间维护和废物管理问题的态度,以及以选定类型的推动形式的可能解决方案。该论文确定了几个有助于提高公民参与垃圾分类水平和提高公共空间维护质量的原因,例如推动的实施地点(影响因素)、推动的吸引力(沉默因素)和个人的承诺。选定的行为干预措施表明,地方市政当局的公民愿意接受轻推,公民倾向于以期望的方式改变行为。
