Popis: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has expressed itself as an ideal opportunity to study behavior and compliance in the field. We have set up a series of studies that gather real-time data in both the United States and the Netherlands. With these studies we can examine to what extent and why people comply with the social distancing measures over time. To do so, we use a broad scientific approach, measuring variation in factors that have shown to shape compliance in criminology, psychology, sociology and economy. Here you can think of social norms, obligation to obey the law and impulsivity, among others. With this, we aim to aid public policy and fill the gap in knowledge on how to maintain compliance with the coronavirus mitigation measures for as long as is necessary. This is vital to stop the spreading of the virus and prevent a second wave. This research is funded with a grant from the Dutch Research Council (NWO).
