Some evidence for this effect can be found in programs that have paired economic disincentives, such as taxes or fines, with public education campaigns that highlight the moral case for adoption of the target behavior. For example, a tax on plastic grocery bags in Ireland paired with an aggressive media campaign led to a ninety-four percent drop in the use of plastic bags, Feb. 2

Inside the administrative state: A critical look at the practice of presidential control

94-95, noting that the selective presidential control of agency regulation, as exercised in part through OIRA, can undermine the legitimacy of such regulation. A related danger is that ad hoc review will enable agencies to overvalue one consideration at the expense of others. Many have argued that OIRA overemphasizes consideration of costs at the expense of benefits, which can tilt regulation in an antiregulatory direction

Conversation and cooperation in social dilemmas: A meta-analysis of experiments from 1958 to 1992

In a meta-analysis of over one hundred social dilemma experiments, David Sally found an average cooperation rate of forty-seven percent within one-shot Prisoner's Dilemma games, although cooperation varied widely depending on the situational variables manipulated in the studies, 60-62, In their review of this literature, Robyn Dawes and Richard Thaler state that cooperation rates in one-shot social dilemmas typically range between forty and sixty percent, even though rational choice theory where utility is measured by monetary self-interest would predict a zero percent cooperation rate

OIRA has recently noted the importance of understanding the effects of informational regulatory tools on subpopulations. For example, it has noted that with regard to default rules it may be important for agencies to "distinguish among, and to suit the diverse situations of, members of the affected group. For example, geographic or demographic information such as age might be taken into account if it helps to increase the likelihood that the default rule will be suited to the situations of those to whom it applies."
