Today, "55% of the world´s population lives in urban areas, a proportion that is expected to increase to 68% by 2050" (United Nations, 2018).Each day, urban areas are getting more important for the economic and social development of all societies in the world; this fact implies the necessity to design new urban policies committed to mitigate climate change and to adapt cities to actual or expected future climate. This necessity comes from the broader concept of sustainable development, defined by the World Commission on Environmental and Development, as the "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs" (World Bank, 2015). More recently, the United Nations encourages among its members the implementations of 17 Sustainable Development Goals calling to action to end poverty, protect the planet and improve the lives and prospects of everyone."Goal 11: Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable"; explicitly declares that rapid urbanization is resulting in a growing number of slum dwellers, inadequate and overburdened infrastructure and services. One of these urban problems is the excessive use of private cars and the infrastructure dedicated exclusively to this way of mobility. This way of mobility causes a significant number of negative externalities, which include road congestions, road accidents, unequal urban development, pollution and high mobility logistics costs. In particular, air pollution is a major and serious problem in large urban areas, causing severe impacts on human health (Gallo & Marinelli, 2020).An interesting approach that helps to answer the problem about how to promote walking and cycling within the behavioral economic framework, involves making people aware of the negative impacts of their transport choices and potentially nudge them towards the use of sustainable modes of transport. Applications of these kinds of strategies rely on the concept of persuasive systems which have been successfully utilized in domains such as health, education, environmental awareness, and sustainable mobility.These systems refer to the application of psychological principles of persuasion intending to change users´ attitudes and behaviors; they guide users towards the adoption of desired attitudes or actions by infusing persuasive strategies; they use traveler´s information behavior to generate recommendations that correspond to their needs; and they may consist of primary task support, 2 computer-human dialogue support and perceived system credibility (see e.g., Anagnostopoulou et al. (2020). In the transport domain, these systems are usually tested on GPS´s smartphone applications. Also, economic and psychological experiments are often run over these applications, which categorize them into field experiments.Sometimes, running field experiments could have some limitations when looking to replicate them in other sociodemographic contexts. Also, nowadays in the middle of the covid world pandemic, economists not only have limitations in running field experiments; but also, laboratory-based experiments due to social distancing.This situation has encouraged novel methodologies that help to contribute to the literature of experiment replications and economic online laboratory experiments. In this sense, I aim to test a persuasive system, that potentially could increase sustainable mobility behavior, by employing a methodology consisting of a description of an urban commuting situation as a public good game.
