|
And we begin! Dr Tim
Chatterton has kicked off proceedings #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:37
|
Tim is talking about his work
on the 4 dimensions of behaviour. Easier to fill out a tax return than get a
bus to work every day #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:38
|
Focus tends to be on small
issues like carrier bag use rather than fossil fuels etc #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:40
|
Are people individual or
social in their behaviours? #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:41
|
Might want to apply different
theoretical tools to different types of behaviour change #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:42
|
E.g. individual behaviour
change is important in terms of health, but not necessarily in terms of
sustainability #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:43
|
Why focus on changing
particular people when a lot of them won't be here in 2050 or are yet to be
born at all? #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:46
|
We've made people behave more
like individuals rather than a society over time. E.g. Changes in
communities, work, social identity #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:47
|
Transport - the more
vehicles, the less social connectivity #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:52
|
Putting all individual action
within a social context is very important #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:52
|
Thatcher: no such thing as
society, there are only men, women and families #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:54
|
Questions from the floor now.
Discussing models for sustainable behaviour #esrc4
|
21/09/2015 12:55
|
Enjoy! RT @JMAGarrett: Taken
the afternoon off to attend @ESRC @BChangeSeminars - looking forward it to!
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 12:56
|
Tim C - doesn't dismiss the
importance of looking at individuals, but thinks there should be a pushback
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 12:57
|
Tim C - what is important is
that we try to do SOMETHING rather than nothing about climate change #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 12:58
|
Syrian crisis is an example
of a compassionate driver in action. Compassion is a useful motivator for
sustainable behaviour #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:00
|
Prof Lorraine Whitmarsh is
now up #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:01
|
Talking about work on
behavioural spillover. Behavioural change or lifestyle change? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:02
|
After decades of information
campaigns individuals aren't really changing behaviours #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:03
|
Problem is that there is a focus
on individual behaviour or consumer behaviour #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:04
|
We need to understand
behaviour across contexts, not just specific individual behaviours #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:04
|
Attempts to link up
behaviours across contexts are often missed #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:06
|
Where behavioural spillover
comes in. Catalyst effect - one behaviours leads to another and hopefully
overall lifestyle change #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:07
|
How consistent are people
across 'green' behaviours? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:08
|
Consistent green behaviours
within certain contexts, e.g. In the home #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:09
|
People are only moderately
consistent in their behaviours at best #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:12
|
Effects of spillover in the
real world. The Welsh carrier bag charge - did it effect other green
behaviours? No significant change #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:14
|
How can we produce spillover?
Can we make it happen? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:15
|
Get people to think like they
are a 'green' person. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:16
|
A lot of potential in
spillover research, but difficult to produce. May just be related to small
behaviours - we don't know yet #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:17
|
Lorraine Whitmarsh concludes
her talk #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:23
|
RT @IanBarrettSW: "New
ways of encouraging green behaviours that can match the scale of the..
challenge are needed" @lwhitmarsh #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:23
|
RT @BexMcIntosh: Stoked to be
in Bristol again listening to the best brains on #behaviour change @ESRC
#esrc4
|
21/09/2015 13:24
|
RT @JMAGarrett: Is it
impossible to achieve social change in an individualist nation with a right
wing government? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:26
|
Q&A done - Dan Welch is
now the last speaker before the break. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:26
|
Dan is a critical advocate of
social practice theory #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:27
|
Theories of social practice
offer novel perspective to solve the kind of problems that behaviour change
deals with #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:28
|
Social practices are
organised and recognisable, socially shared bundles of activity #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:30
|
Practices are socially
recognisable things, have a history and a trajectory #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:31
|
Practices become a unit of
intervention rather than the values we attribute to them #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:32
|
The portfolio model. Assumes
behaviour is driven by something else. Eg norms, attitudes, values etc #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:33
|
Behaving means selecting from
this portfolio. This fundamentally overestimates the role of choice in
practices #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:33
|
Also underestimates
constraints #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:34
|
From a practice perspective
the suggestion is to look to the dynamics of social practices to see how we
can change things #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:35
|
A matter of constraints,
conventions, infrastructure etc #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:37
|
Need a new evidence base
about the synchronising of practices #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:38
|
If we intervene at a level of
meaning rather than through infrastructure (or vice versa) we are far less
likely to be successful #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:38
|
It's difficult to model the
processes of change #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:39
|
Systemic change not behaviour
change? Whose behaviour needs changing? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:40
|
Demand reduction is very
important. Also there is a link between inequality and sustainability #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:40
|
Bigger income tends to mean a
bigger carbon footprint. We need to strongly link the inequality to
sustainability #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:40
|
Dan welch concludes his talk
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:41
|
RT @IanBarrettSW: Dan Welch
says understanding social practice puts "collective social change over
individual behaviour change" #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:42
|
RT @Natalie_Horne: Great talk
on spillover #behaviourchange by Prof Whitmarsh. Carrier bags and cupcakes
post: #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 13:47
|
RT @JMAGarrett: To reduce
resource demand, inequality must be strongly linked to sustainable practices:
top earners are far more responsible
|
21/09/2015 14:18
|
The break is coming to an end
(lovely pastries @wshed) #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:18
|
Adam Cooper is next up to
talk #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:20
|
What is behaviour change? We
need to get under the skin of what we're talking about #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:21
|
Within policy it's an
intermediate outcome of interest, like education innovation or growth #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:21
|
It can almost be like a flag
in the ground for policy - like social capital. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:22
|
Essentially BC is not about
people - it's about the brain, the bits of the brain that determine behaviour
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:23
|
Problematic - not really
about behaviour but about choice #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:24
|
Promotes a 'standard model'
of the human. It's the narrowing of social science input #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:26
|
Social sciences limit their
interdisciplinarity with physical sciences. Negative consequences for policy
outcomes #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:28
|
Bringing the social and the
physical together: affordances. Objects shape what we do and how we behave
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:31
|
Material properties matter.
Micro and macro infrastructure - engineers and social scientists both have a
role to play #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:32
|
Deep interdisciplinarity with
physical sciences - the material has important properties #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:33
|
To exploit this requires
socio-technical designs and integration of social and physical methods #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:34
|
Need to move beyond standard
policy levers. Recognise a lot of policy is about building infrastructure
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:35
|
Plan physical element with
social science built in to it #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:36
|
Adam Cooper has finished his
talk, questions from the floor now #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:44
|
Chris Holmes is now talking
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:45
|
Chris works in sustainability
and health and will be talking about business building behaviour #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:46
|
RT @Clairemhopkins: #ESRC4 Dr
Cooper calls for greater integration of social science with technical &
infrastructure dev'mts.
|
21/09/2015 14:47
|
There is no shortage of need,
and we know nudge works and also how it works, but still not making much
progress #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:47
|
Apple iPhone has brought the
most global behaviour change in recent times #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:50
|
Very few commercial
organisations have read the theory and research behind behaviour change
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:51
|
Need to have more evidence
based product development #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:53
|
Need to make it usable and
something that people can interact with it. Science, art and design and
economic contexts all important #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:55
|
Should we be in love with
'big data'? Probably only 1 or 2% of population are interested! #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:57
|
Big data - e.g. Nectar card
incentivising people to buy products when the data tells them they've stopped
buying them. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:58
|
But doesn't tell you WHY they
e stopped buying #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 14:59
|
We need to build-on rather
than re-build research design, develop consortia and add recognition and
reward #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:03
|
Start funding concept rather
than end product #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:05
|
Chris Holmes concludes his
talk, now for some questions #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:06
|
Dr Chatterton wants
clarification on Chris's theories in the specific context of sustainability
#ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:14
|
Adam Roberts from DECC is now
speaking. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:15
|
Nudging will remain part of
the strategy at DECC - fits with the mission of more for less #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:18
|
Energy use behaviour is
important. Only 40% of variation is explained by property type, income and
tenure #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:19
|
Newcastle heating controls
advice trials. Trusted messenger advice was welcome but no overall energy
reduction #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:20
|
Difficult to change behaviour
through advice and info alone #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:21
|
Energy is rarely consciously
interacted with #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:23
|
Discussing current DECC led
research, including Behaviours in Organisations (BIO) and Behaviour Change
Endurance #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:24
|
Hoping to do more
aspirational work soon at DECC. Should help them start chipping away at these
topics #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:25
|
There is public concern about
climate change, but little action. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:26
|
Hoping to generate a
compelling narrative about what a low carbon future will look like #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:29
|
What are the non-rational
behaviours in society? Should we target them? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:30
|
Could a sociological approach
inform macro behavioural change? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:30
|
RT @BexMcIntosh: "We
don't have time to fail" @Tim_Chatterton on #behaviour change for
#climatechange - why knowledge sharing is so important
|
21/09/2015 15:32
|
Questions for Adam now. Could
pre-payment meters reduce energy use by making us more aware of what we're
spending?
|
21/09/2015 15:37
|
Dr Spotswood - is it about
just using the right buzzwords to get people to start listening? #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:40
|
RT @BexMcIntosh: In 5 yrs
solar installation increased 100% and reduced costs by x5. Surely driven in
part by action orientated policies
|
21/09/2015 15:43
|
Broader questions from the
floor to the whole panel now. #ESRC4
|
21/09/2015 15:48
|
Signing off now as the gadget
battery life is failing us! Hopefully you have enjoyed today's tweets. More
on the blog soon #ESRC4

Thanks to all those who
attended, and to all of our speakers today. See you at our next event in
December #ESRC4
