Theory of Change and Model DesignLewis, Owen W
This reaction may arise from a combination of factors, such as a sense of powerlessness to enact significant change after a building is constructed or the experience of growing up in environments over which individuals had little or no agency in shaping. For these reasons, architectural exhibitions...
The change model created by Kurt Lewin has three stages. To understand Kurt Lewin's change theory, it may be helpful to think of the different stages of ice when it is changed from a frozen state to a liquid state, or melted, and then refrozen. ...
The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is a well-known model that predicts eating behavior based on norms and beliefs related to fast food and snack consumption [21, 22]. Derived from the theory of reason action (TRA), TPB explains health behaviors that are not entirely under an individual’...
estimated elasticities change very little. That is not necessarily the case if knowledge seeks to expand to as many aspects (Xs) as possible of individuals’ lives. In that case, economies of scale and scope operate together, reinforce each other and operate with network effects. This makes mas...
As reviewed by Machina [4], alternative models of preferences over objectively or subjectively uncertain prospects have attempted to accommodate these systematic departures from the expected utility model, while retaining as much of its analytical power as possible. In particular, non-additive nonlinear ...
Nudge theory is a flexible and modern change-management concept for the understanding how people think, make decisions, and behave; helping people improve their thinking and decisions; managing change of all sorts and; identifying and modifying existing unhelpful influences on people. Nudge theory was...

expanding the space of possible future objects. Such events can drastically change the copy number distribution of objects at various assembly indices, depending on the emerging kinetics in the formation of new objects. By combining discovery and production kinetics in a simplified formulation, we esti...
These assumptions are essentially saying that WACC can be used as the discount rate provided that the investment project does not change either the business risk or the financial risk of the investing organisation. If the business risk of the investment proje...
