Penn Center for Social Norms and Behavioral Dynamics
Working Papers
The Center for Social Norms and Behavioral Dynamics is a major research center at the University of Pennsylvania, which aims to support positive behaviors on a global scale, across both informal and organizational settings. The Center for Social Norms and Behavioral Dynamics has undertaken a range of projects with different partner organizations around the world by leveraging our expertise in measuring behavior, analyzing behavioral data, and identifying systematic behavioral drivers.
Our work is driven by our three-pronged mission: To continue developing our social norms framework and provide cutting-edge theory for practical applications, to educate partners and the public about how to use the framework for positive behavioral change, and to work directly with organizations to develop measures and design interventions tailored to the social networks, norms, and behaviors they aim to impact.
