Optimal Defaults in the Prevention of Pediatric Obesity: From Platform to Practice

The term “optimal defaults” refers to imparting pre-selected choices which are designed to produce a desired behavior change.

It has been found to be a powerful behavioral determinant in areas such as pension plan enrollment, organ donation, and green energy utilization.
