Abstract

In recent years there have been growing expectations from policymakers towards social sciences in order to reach sustainability goals. Research on social norms is often used to promote changes in pro-environmental behaviour. However, the underlying social psychological mechanisms that explain those changes are not yet well described. This special issue puts together four papers that, from different perspectives, contribute to innovation in this field, proposing theoretically relevant mediators and contextual moderators.

Resumen

Con el fin de alcanzar las metas de sostenibilidad, en los últimos años las expectativas de los legisladores en las ciencias sociales han ido creciendo paulatinamente. La investigación sobre normas sociales a menudo se emplea para fomentar cambios en el comportamiento proambiental de las personas. Sin embargo, los mecanismos psicológicos subyacentes que explican tales cambios aún no han sido descritos de manera precisa. Este número especial agrupa cuatro artículos que, desde diferentes perspectivas, contribuyen a la innovación en este campo, proponiendo mediadores y moderadores contextuales teóricamente relevantes.
