Nudge Patterns

Methodology: how Nudge Patterns works

How we rate evidence, how our pages are made, which ethical rules apply and where our sources come from.

Nudge Patterns aims not only to explain behavioral economics but to make it checkable. These four pages describe how we go about it.

  • Evidence score: How two scores rate how well an effect is supported and how well it carries over to products.
  • Editorial process and use of AI: How a page is made, where we use AI and which errors we found along the way.
  • Code of ethics: Where a nudge ends and sludge begins, and which questions we ask ourselves.
  • Sources and bibliography: All studies behind the pages, with DOI and links to the pages that use them.
