{"title":"Does Promoting One Behavior Distract from Others? Evidence from a Field Experiment","authors":"Hannah (Trachtman) Luk-Zilberman","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.3941884","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3941884","url":null,"abstract":"Impact evaluations of behavioral interventions typically focus on target outcomes. As such, despite evidence that effort and attention are costly, there is little research on whether generic interventions have negative spillovers on other behaviors. I run a large online experiment in which individuals receive combinations of messages and incentives promoting two behaviors, meditation and meal logging. I find that the interventions reduce completion rates of the opposite behavior by 19-29%. Raising both behaviors by 1 S.D. is thus 28% more costly than expected. Estimating the model reveals that spillovers can be mitigated by tending toward strong interventions, all else equal.","PeriodicalId":190446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical & Counseling Psychology eJournal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125600756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Mood, Firm Behavior, and Aggregate Economic Outcomes","authors":"Vidhi Chhaochharia, Dasol Kim, George M. Korniotis, Alok Kumar","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.2584491","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.2584491","url":null,"abstract":"This study examines whether mood affects the aggregate state-level macroeconomy through its impact on firm-level decisions. Using sky cloud cover as a proxy for mood, we show that mood affects the economic expectations of small business managers. After relatively sunnier periods, managers have more optimistic expectations, and the component of their expectations related to mood influences hiring and investment decisions. Consequently, mood affects state-level job creation and new business starts, especially during periods of greater economic uncertainty. These results suggest that mood-induced economic expectations influence firm-level managerial decisions and state-level macroeconomic fluctuations.","PeriodicalId":190446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical & Counseling Psychology eJournal","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114389521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
