Metrics details
Understanding what drives household-level decisions to keep cooking with polluting cookstoves and fuels must be grounded in theory for sustained change to occur. New research examines the literature through a behavioural model and finds that affordability, technical aspects, and fuel supply are the main drivers of fuel stacking.
Now, writing in Nature Energy, Tash Perros, Priti Parikh and colleagues have used behavioural change theory to reveal these decision points4. They conducted a structured literature review of 100 articles to categorize drivers of stove and fuel use using Michie et al.’s Capability-Opportunity-Motivation (COM-B) model for understanding behaviour change5. The COM-B model is grounded in theory using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF), a synthesis of 84 theoretical constructs6, relevant to the implementation of new behavioural practices.
