an interesting new report on demand for smoking cessation products on the RWJF website. We still have over 20% of adults puffing away. It would be interesting to think how the new behavioural economics literature would have insights in to these types of interventions.
I am working on a note about the linkage between the leisure sector in Ireland (including tourism, sport, pubs etc.,), time preferences, social capital and public policy. It builds on a lot of the policy work i did in the ESRI where we effectively did an audit on a lot of this but examines all of this within the framework of discounting and behavioural economics. I will send it to B+F in the next few weeks but would be good to chat about some of this in terms of potential research hypotheses.
