Abstract

Descriptive norm and opinion leader nudges were tested using a randomized control trial.

Opinion leader nudges have more impact than normative nudges, albeit marginally.

Students with low levels of grade importance responded positively to multiple nudges.

The same group of students who received multiple nudges also ended the course with higher grades.
