One such intervention, purported to stimulate pro-environmental behaviour, is green nudging. To change people's behaviour and implement green nudges more effectively, though, it is inescapable to understand the psychological processes underlying people's attitudes and...
The urgency of environmental issues, notably climate change, demands a nuanced understanding of the psychological barriers and enablers of pro-environmental attitudes and behaviors.

Public concerns about the potential effects of plastic pollution on human health are high, especially following evidence of microplastics (MPs) in food and drink. However, scientific evidence on human health effects is currently unclear, and knowledge gaps remain regarding sources, pathways and toxicity. We combined qualitative and quantitative approaches to gain insight into factors...
In interior environmental research the preference curved vs angular features was analyzed according to explicit and implicit measures. Using experimental paradigms based on reaction time (RT) focused on approach-avoidance tendencies, studies confirmed effects of curved vs. angular interior designs with experimental paradigms, i.e., associative biases with approach-avoidance words (females are...
To prevent non-optimal developmental outcomes, international guidelines recommend the avoidance of digital media use under the age of two. This recommendation is, however, rarely followed. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between screen time and early childhood development in a sociodemographically representative Hungarian sample. The study was conducted on a...
