We end with a comprehensive research agenda to improve the precision of psychological theories. There is much work to be done here for environmental psychologists! Especially formalizing theories represents a key step forward.

To overcome one barrier, we introduce a meta-theoretical framework to help people navigate the extensive environmental psychology literature. The MAP-framework (Motivation-Agency-Past Behaviour) synthesizes key insights from 8 main behavioral theories used to explain pro-environmental behaviour.

We give an overview of the current state of modelling lifestyle change and how it links to env. psy. We identify two barriers modelers run into when they want to use environmental psychology knowledge and theory to more realistically represent pro-environmental behaviour changes.

Lifestyle change is increasingly recognized as a critical pathway to CO2 emission reduction. Yet, realistically representing lifestyle change and its drivers in models is enormously challenging.

That's lovely to hear, thank you 😁 Yes, I agree! My talk focused specifically on IAMs/climate models, but the challenge of modelling human behaviour appears in a lot of domains. For water models, psychological theories+findings on the drivers of specifically adaptation behaviour could be relevant!
