00:15

So, we all have some behavior

00:17

that we would like to change about ourselves.

00:20

And we certainly all want to help someone else

00:22

change their behavior in a positive way.

00:25

So, maybe it's your kid, your spouse, your colleague.

00:29

So I want to share some new research with you

00:31

that I think reveals something really important

00:34

about what gets people to change their behavior.

00:38

But before I do that, let's zoom in on one strategy

00:41

that I think you probably use a lot.

00:44

So, let's say you're trying to stop yourself from snacking.

00:47

What do you tell yourself?

00:49

Well, most people, in a monologue, will say,

00:52

"Beware. You'll be fat."

00:54

And if this was your kid,

00:59

you would probably tell him that smoking kills

01:02

and, by the way, he's in big, big trouble.

01:05

(Laughter)

01:06

So, what we're trying to do here

01:08

is we're trying to scare ourselves and others

01:12

into changing their behavior.

01:13

And it's not just us.

01:15

Warnings and threats are really common in health campaigns, in policy.

01:21

It's because we all share this deep-rooted belief

01:25

that if you threaten people, if fear is induced,

01:29

it will get them to act.

01:31

And it seems like a really reasonable assumption,

01:34

except for the fact that the science shows

01:37

that warnings have very limited impact on behavior.

01:42

So, graphic images on cigarette packets, for example,

01:45

do not deter smokers from smoking,

01:47

and one study found that, after looking at those images,

01:50

quitting actually became a lower priority for smokers.

01:53

So, I'm not saying that warnings and threats never work,

01:56

but what I'm saying is, on average, they seem to have a very limited impact.

02:00

And so, the question is: why?

02:02

Why are we resistant to warnings?

02:05

Well, if you think about animals,

02:08

when you induce fear in an animal,

02:10

the most common response you will see is freezing or fleeing;

02:15

fighting, not as much.

02:17

And so, humans are the same.

02:19

So if something scares us,

02:21

we tend to shut down and we try to eliminate the negative feelings.

02:24

So, we might use rationalizations.

02:26

For example, you might tell yourself:

02:28

"My grandpa smoked. He lived to be 90.

02:31

So, I have really good genes and absolutely nothing to worry about."

02:35

And this process can actually make you feel more resilient

02:39

than you did before,

02:40

which is why warnings sometimes have this boomerang effect.

02:45

In other times, we simply put our head in the ground.

02:48

(Laughter)

02:49

Take the stock market for example.

02:51

Do you know when people pull their head out of the ground

02:54

to look at their accounts --

02:55

not to make a transaction, just to log in to check their account?

02:59

So, what you're seeing here, in black,

03:01

is the S&P 500 over two years,

03:05

and in gray, is the number of times

03:07

that people logged in to their account just to check.

03:09

And this is data from Karlsson, Loewenstein & Seppi,

03:12

it's control [data] for all the obvious confounds.

03:14

So, what do we see?
