心理科学对公共政策的影响越来越大。行为公共政策(BPP)在这方面是一个里程碑,因为它以一种普遍的方式影响了许多政策领域。福祉公共政策(WPP)是新兴的心理科学的第二个领域,具有普遍的适用性。然而,对WPP的宣传受到了道德和政治方面的批评。这些批评让人想起了过去十年针对BPP的批评。这一研究表明,需要开展跨学科的工作,为心理科学在公共政策中的应用建立规范原则。我们试图从关于BPP的规范性争论中提炼出WPP的这些原则。我们认为,政府对BPP的采用是其相对强大的规范和认识基础的功能,即自由意志主义的家长式作风,或简称“轻推”。我们解释了为什么轻推框架不适合WPP。然后,我们分析了促进如何提供一个严格但可行的替代框架,以证实福利和行为政策的合法性。我们阐明了一些wpp如何能够作为推动力得到有效的推广,以及它们如何可能达不到相关标准。
Psychological science is increasingly influencing public policy. Behavioral public policy (BPP) was a milestone in this regard because it influenced many areas of policy in a general way. Well-being public policy (WPP) is emerging as a second domain of psychological science with general applicability. However, advocacy for WPP is criticized on ethical and political grounds. These criticisms are reminiscent of those directed at BPP over the past decade. This déjà vu suggests the need for interdisciplinary work that establishes normative principles for applying psychological science in public policy. We try to distill such principles for WPP from the normative debates over BPP. We argue that the uptake of BPP by governments was a function of its relatively strong normative and epistemic foundations in libertarian paternalism, or nudging, for short. We explain why the nudge framework is inappropriate for WPP. We then analyze how boosts offer a strict but feasible alternative framework for substantiating the legitimacy of well-being and behavioral policies. We illuminate how some WPPs could be fruitfully promoted as boosts and how they might fall short of the associated criteria.
