1. What factors make monetary incentives effective in promoting socially desirable behaviours, and what factors compromise their efficacy?
2. Paying people to engage in socially desirable behaviours might have implications for ethics and the formation of norms. What do we know about these issues?
We are proud to have two pioneering behavioural scientists as keynote speakers: George Loewenstein and Peter Ubel.
