Abstract:
AimRather than being rigid, habitual behaviours may be determined by dynamic mental representations that can adapt to context changes. This adaptive potential may result from particular conditions dependent on the interaction between two sources of mental constructs activation: perceived context applicability and cognitive accessibility.MethodTwo web-shopping simulations offering the choice between habitually chosen and non-habitually chosen food products were presented to participants. This considered two choice contexts differing in the habitual behaviour perceived applicability (low vs. high) and a measure of habitual behaviour chronicity.ResultsStudy 1 demonstrated a perceived applicability effect, with more habitual (non-organic) than non-habitual (organic) food products chosen in a high perceived applicability (familiar) than in a low perceived applicability (new) context. The adaptive potential of habitual behaviour was evident in the habitual products choice consistency across three successive choices, despite the decrease in perceived applicability. Study 2 evidenced the adaptive potential in strong habitual behaviour participants – high chronic accessibility – who chose a habitual product (milk) more than a non-habitual product (orange juice), even when perceived applicability was reduced (new context).ConclusionResults portray consumers as adaptive decision makers that can flexibly cope with changes in their (inner and outer) choice contexts.

AbstractWe argue that the authors ignore a broad range of possible means of changing behaviour: unintentional change. Most of the behaviours that people seek to change – either in themselves or that are the subject of public health campaigns–are habitual, and hence not necessarily responsive to intentions. An evolutionary approach should take into account all kinds of evolved behavioural responses.

Abstract:
The increasing ubiquity of smartphone data, with greater spatial and temporal coverage than achieved by traditional study designs, have the potential to provide insight into habitual physical activity patterns. This study implements and evaluates the utility of both K-means clustering and agglomerative hierarchical clustering methods in identifying weekly and yearlong physical activity behaviour trends. Characterising the demographics and choice of activity type within the identified clusters of behaviour. Across all seven clusters of seasonal activity behaviour identified, daylight saving was shown to play a key role in influencing behaviour, with increased activity in summer months. Investigation into weekly behaviours identified six clusters with varied roles, of weekday versus weekend, on the likelihood of meeting physical activity guidelines. Preferred type of physical activity likewise varied between clusters, with gender and age strongly associated with cluster membership. Key relationships are identified between weekly clusters and seasonal activity behaviour clusters, demonstrating how short-term behaviours contribute to longer-term activity patterns. Utilising unsupervised machine learning, this study demonstrates how the volume and richness of secondary app data can allow us to move away from aggregate measures of physical activity to better understand temporal variations in habitual physical activity behaviour.

Abstract:
The central question of this article is, Are animals morally responsible for what they do? Answering this question requires a careful, step-by-step argument. In sections 1 and 2, I explain what morality is, and that having a morality means following moral rules or norms. In sections 3 and 4, I argue that some animals show not just regularities in their social behaviour, but can be rightly said to follow social norms. But are the norms they follow also moral norms? In section 5, I contend, referring to the work of Shaun Nichols, that the basic moral competences or capacities are already present in nonhuman primates. Following moral rules or norms is more than just acting in accordance to these norms; it requires being motivated by moral rules. I explain, in section 6, referring to Mark Rowlands, that being capable of moral motivation does not require agency; being a moral subject is sufficient. Contrary to moral agents, moral subjects are not responsible for their behaviour. Stating that there are important similarities between animal moral behaviour and human, unconscious, automatic, habitual behaviour, I examine in section 7 whether humans are responsible for their habitual moral behaviour, and if they are, what then the grounds are for denying that moral animals are responsible for their behaviour. The answer is that humans are responsible for their habitual behaviour if they have the capacity for deliberate intervention. Although animals are capable of intervention in their habitual behaviour, they are not capable of deliberate intervention.

Abstract:
This study investigates taxi drivers’ multi-day cruising behaviours with GPS data collected in Shenzhen, China. By calculating the inter-daily variability of taxi drivers’ cruising behaviours, the multi-day cruising patterns are investigated. The impacts of learning feature and habitual feature on multi-day cruising behaviours are determined. The results prove that there is variability among taxis’ day-to-day cruising behaviours, and the day-of-week pattern is that taxi drivers tend to cruise a larger area on Friday, and a rather focused area on Monday. The findings also indicate that the impacts of learning feature and habitual feature are more obvious between weekend days than among weekdays. Moreover, learning feature between two sequent weeks is found to be greater than that within one week, while the habitual feature shows recession over time. By revealing taxis' day-to-day cruising pattern and the factors influencing it, the study results provide us with crucial information in predicting taxis' multi-day cruising locations, which can be applied to simulate taxis' multi-day cruising behaviour as well as to determine the traffic volume derived from taxis' cruising behaviour. This can help us in planning of transportation facilities, such as stop stations or parking lots for taxis. Moreover, the findings can be also employed in predicting taxis' adjustments of multi-day cruising locations under the impact of traffic management strategies.

Lally, Phillippa Jane. "Habitual behaviour and weight control." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2007. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1444914/.

Full text
Abstract:
With obesity rates rising steadily in most parts of the world, there is considerable interest in novel weight loss interventions. This thesis tests the utility of habit formation theory for designing behaviour change advice for weight loss. Central to models of habit operation is the idea that habits develop through repetition of the behaviour in consistent contexts (Context Dependent Repetition CDR), but the process itself has attracted little research attention, and it has never been used as a basis for interventions. This thesis used CDR as the basis of a weight loss intervention and also examined the process of habit development for diet and activity behaviours. Study 1 was an eight week pilot study with ten participants who were given simple advice on developing diet and exercise habits associated with weight loss. Post-intervention interviews found evidence that some behaviours had acquired 'automaticity' - the hallmark of habits - and weight data showed an average 3kg weight loss. Study 2 extended the evaluation of the intervention in a randomised controlled trial of the habit-based advice compared with a no-treatment control group, incorporating standardised measures of automaticity. The results showed significantly greater weight loss in the intervention group, which was maintained over follow up. The recommended behaviours also became increasingly automatic. Study 3 tracked changes in automaticity over three months as volunteers repeated one eating or activity behaviour in a consistent context on a daily basis. The results showed that advice on CDR is sufficient to promote habit formation and supported the prediction that an asymptotic curve of increasing automaticity reflects a generalised habit-formation process. The average length of time to reach an asymptote was 70 days. This research has contributed to the understanding of habit formation and shown that it may be a useful foundation for simple, easily disseminable, weight loss interventions.

Abstract:
According to contemporary learning theory, instrumental actions are controlled, in a large part, by two dissociable systems. Whilst goal-directed actions are driven by an explicit awareness of an anticipated outcome, habitual responses are the product of previously reinforced associations between contextual stimuli and salient outcomes. Although experimental lesion studies and pathological disorders, such as drug addiction and Parkinson's disease, have advanced our knowledge of the brain circuitries important in the regulation of instrumental behaviour, we still do not have a full understanding of the executive mechanisms regulating the expression of these behaviours or the neural processes which underlie the shift from �exible goal-directed actions to stimulus-bound habits that occurs naturally following repeated practice. The present work focused speci�cally on the molecular mechanisms involved in this shift. The �rst experimental section, Chapter 3, established a protocol for modelling goal-directed and habitual instrumental responding in rats. Experiment 1 measured the sensitivity of lever press responding to changes in outcome value, as an index of goal-directed behaviour, in groups of rats sourced from either Charles River or Harlan. After three sessions of instrumental training, only rats sourced from Charles River and devalued in the same context that they were trained in, rather than in a di�erent context, reduced responding for a devalued outcome. Building on these �ndings, in Experiment 2 a separate group of rats, sourced from Charles River, was trained to level press over 10 sessions. In contrast to the �rst experiment, lever press responding at test in this group of animals was insensitive to outcome devaluation. These initial experiments demonstrated evidence consistent with a training-induced shift from goal-directed to habitual instrumental behaviour and were used to inform the design of a second set of experiments, described in Chapter 4, in which region-speci�c di�erences in gene expression were compared across groups of rats with di�erent levels of lever press experience. DNA microarray analysis of tissue samples from the dorsolateral (DLS) and posterior dorsomedial striatum (pDMS), using Rat Gene 2.0 ST A�ymetrix arrays, revealed both training group- and brain region-speci�c ef- fects. Evidence of a high proportion of non-linear regulation pro�les across the training groups was indicative of experience-dependent shifts in gene expression; further- more, the high degree of separation between the training-dependent expression pro�les of the DLS and pDMS points to the dynamic engagement of distinct, region-speci�c regulatory networks over the course of instrumental learning. The experiments presented in Chapter 5 went on to investigate the role of epigenetic mechanisms, speci�cally histone acetylation, in the regulation of instrumental behaviour by using the histone deacetylase inhibitor sodium butyrate (NaB) to interfere with endogenous chromatin remodelling processes. The e�ects of systemic injections of NaB on the sensitivity of lever press behaviour to changes in outcome value were assessed in three separate studies, each designed to target a di�erent stage of learning. NaB had no e�ect on the acquisition or consolidation of goal-directed behaviour. However, after three sessions of training, the instrumental behaviour of animals receiving an injection of NaB prior to exticntion test was less sensitive to reinforcer devaluation relative to controls, suggesting that histone acetylation may be involved in the retrieval phase of instrumental learning. In an attempt to address some of the limitations of systemic drug administration, the �nal experimental chapter, Chapter 6, describes an initial exploratory investigation into the e�ects of administering NaB directly into the brain using a microinfusion protocol. Western blot analysis showed an increase in histone H4 acetylation in the mPFC following infusions of NaB targeting the infralimbic cortex. Behavioural data suggested that NaB may act to ameliorate some of the damaging e�ects of the infusion procedure, with NaB-treated animals showing enhanced sensitivity to outcome devaluation relative to controls. These preliminary data act as proof of principle for the development of a microinfusion protocol for studying the role of histone acetylation in instrumental learning and highlight a number of practical issues which will be addressed in ongoing work. Taken together the experiments presented in this thesis provide evidence for the existence of discrete gene expression changes associated with minimal or extended training regimes, and for highly speci�c e�ects of a systemically administered HDACi on components of instrumental behaviour. These data o�er new insights into the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of instrumental learning in rodents and provide a starting point for further investigations into the role that epigenetic processes may play in the neural plasticity underlying the transition from goal-directed to habitual behaviour.

Abstract:
The amygdala central nucleus (CeN) is a heterogeneous structure lying within the medial temporal lobe and is known to be involved in the processing and reacting to emotional events. Traditionally, the CeN has been the focus of research investigating aversive Pavlovian conditioning, specifically in the acquisition and expression of fear responses. Here, a series of experiments have been conducted to examine the role of the CeN in appetitive instrumental conditioning. Generally in this type of learning, behaviours are initially goal-directed and sensitive to the outcome value, but after a period of training, behaviours shift to being habitual. The role of the CeN in habitual control of instrumental actions was investigated in an overtraining-induced habit in rats. It was found that the anterior region of the CeN (aCeN) is critical for habit acquisition. Furthermore, experiments to investigate interactions of the aCeN and its efferent and afferent structures were also conducted. Using asymmetrical lesions to disconnect regions of interest, it was found that the aCeN interacts with both the dorsolateral striatum (DLS) and the basolateral complex of the amygdala (BLAC) in habit acquisition in distinct and dissociable ways. These results are the first to implicate the CeN and its connection with the circuit involving the DLS and BLAC in habit learning. Furthermore, they imply that, in instrumental conditioning, regions of the amygdala parse the instrumental outcome into reward and reinforcement signals mediating goal-directed and habitual actions.

Full text
Abstract:
Recent media reports have drawn attention to entrepreneurs who have successfully owned several businesses. Entrepreneurs who have owned at least two businesses are known as 'habitual entrepreneurs'. However, not all habitual entrepreneurs are consistently successful. Further, studies show that habitual entrepreneurs are heterogeneous. A distinction has been made between portfolio entrepreneurs (i.e., those who own multiple businesses simultaneously) and serial entrepreneurs (i.e., those who have owned multiple businesses sequentially). It has been argued that to really understand entrepreneurship, there is a need to understand habitual entrepreneurs because they have been able to move down the experience curve with respect to the problems and processes of owning a business. If habitual entrepreneurs are distinct from other groups of entrepreneurs such as novice entrepreneurs (particularly in terms of superior performance), then there may be advantages associated with identifying their practices. Practitioners, such as providers of finance, can make sure that the qualities of habitual entrepreneurs are present in the entrepreneurs they choose to find. Policy-makers wanting to maximise the return on their investments may provide financial support to this group. In addition, guided by the knowledge of how habitual entrepreneurs behave, support can be directed to novice entrepreneurs to encourage best practice. In this study, the theoretical rationale for distinguishing between these groups is provided using human capital theory. Business ownership experience is viewed as one component of an entrepreneur's specific human capital. In particular, it is argued that as a result of their experience, habitual entrepreneurs may have had an opportunity to develop other aspects of their human capital to a greater extent than novice entrepreneurs. Consequently, one objective of the thesis was to identify differences in the human capital profile of habitual and novice entrepreneurs. The results of the study show that while similarities exist, habitual entrepreneurs display different human capital characteristics than novice entrepreneurs. Further, portfolio entrepreneurs also display different human capital characteristics than serial entrepreneurs. The thesis also explored the relationship between business ownership experience and entrepreneurial behaviour as well as performance. The evidence indicates that habitual entrepreneurs do not search for more information than novice entrepreneurs but they do use different sources of information. Further, habitual entrepreneurs (in particular portfolio entrepreneurs) identify and pursue a significantly greater number of opportunities in a given period. Using a variety of entrepreneur and firm-level performance measures, habitual entrepreneurs do not out-perform their novice counterparts. Interestingly, neither those habitual entrepreneur-s who had been consistently successful, nor those who had previously failed, report superior performance to novice entrepreneurs. On the basis of the findings presented in this study, a number of policy suggestions can be made. Unfortunately, as no particular group of entrepreneur was associated with superior performance, the recommendation than financial support be targeted to a certain group could not be made. However, given relationships between other aspects of human capital and performance, some suggestions for support, particularly in terms of training are offered. Given identified differences in the human capital and behavioural profile of novice, habitual, serial and portfolio entrepreneurs, a case for tailored support is made.

Abstract:
Re-investment is vital to the business angel "industry" because re-investing angels endorse a greater number of entrepreneurs and invest more funds than non-reinvesting angels. In this exploratory empirical analysis, the appraisal qualities of business angels are examined relative to their impact on producing successful investments as well as their impact upon re-investment. The three appraisal qualities investigated are business angels' motivations, their deal generation behaviours and the cognitive heuristics of overconfidence and representativeness. The analysis is based on the information model of the existence of the formal venture capital industry. A typology of business angels is introduced based on 1) their intentions to re-invest and 2) their exit status at re-investment. Business angels who have re-invested are classified as habitual angels. A novel data set reveals information about angels' first to fourth investments that allows for comparability between novice and habitual angels' first investments. The data set is randomly sampled from a known population of newly incorporated firms on the east coast of Canada producing a more representative sample than other business angel studies. Six in-depth case studies add to the findings. The findings indicate that financial motivations, intermediated deal generation and under-confidence are associated with financially successful informal venture capital investments. However, compared to novice angels, the representative sample of habitual angels eschew financial motivations and intermediation, and are characterised by overconfidence at the level of their first investment. Habitual angels demonstrate some qualities that indicate they learn with subsequent investments. Implications for policy makers, business angels and entrepreneurs are included.

Abstract:
Translating evidence-based guidance into practice involves healthcare professionals (HCPs) adopting new, and changing existing behaviours. Implementation research typically focuses on the reflective process that underlies HCPs’ behaviour, however there is a growing interest in the role that impulsive processes such as habit have on behaviour. Habit can be defined as a learned tendency to perform a behaviour automatically in response to a specific cue. This thesis presents four studies investigating how a habit perspective can contribute to understanding HCPs’ behaviour. Chapter 1 describes how a greater consideration of habit in the implementation literature could contribute to the field. Chapter 2 presents theory-based interviews conducted with HCPs who piloted a new self-management tool for diabetes. The study showed how HCPs formed a new habit of using the tool and how electronic reminders facilitated this process by promoting behavioural repetition. Chapter 3 describes a randomised controlled trial that aimed to test whether a planning intervention (using action- and coping planning) would be effective in supporting HCPs with habit change. While the study did not reach recruitment targets, it provided some first insights regarding the feasibility of using a planning intervention to support HCP behaviour change. Chapter 4 presents a secondary analysis of a large national data set, which found that the relationship between planning (action and coping planning) and six guideline-recommended behaviours operated indirectly on HCP behaviour via habit. Finally, Chapter 5 describes a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies investigating the association between habit and HCPs’ behaviour and showed that habit plays a significant role in predicting clinical behaviours. This thesis supports the consideration of habit when predicting HCPs’ behaviour and suggests that the use of conditional planning interventions may offer a feasible approach to support HCPs with creating and breaking habit.

Abstract:
AbstractWhen faced with uncertainty in the world, biological agents actively sense the environment to acquire the most informative input to fulfil their tasks. Actions are performed to adjust bodily sensors to maximize the collected information, which is usually known as active sensing. For instance, rodents continuously adjust the speed and amplitude of whisking to better identify objects and body location in space, which ultimately regulates navigation. Whilst, the internal mechanism that drives active sensing in humans is still under research, recent evidence points towards neuromodulators, such as serotonin, that influence whether the habitual behaviour is preferred over sensor adjustments to trigger exploration. Here, we present an active tactile-sensing model for a robot inspired by the serotonergic function viewed from the uncertainty minimization perspective. To mechanistically explain this neuromodulatory function, we associated it with precision parameters regulating habitual behaviour and tactile encoding based on previous findings. We qualitatively evaluated the model using an experiment inspired by the gap-crossing paradigm but tailored to a humanoid with tactile sensing. Behavioural switch timing results show the strong dependencies between active sensing and precision regulation. Ultimately, this work discusses how the neural microcircuitry regulates active sensing, hence opening future research of such neuromodulatory processes translated to robotics active sensing and perception.

Abstract:
Ethical concerns regarding Artificial Intelligence technology have fueled discussions around the ethics training received by its designers. Training designers for ethical behaviour, understood as habitual application of ethical principles in any situation, can make a significant difference in the practice of research, development, and application of AI systems. Building on interdisciplinary knowledge and practical experience from computer science, moral psychology, and pedagogy, we propose a functional way to provide this training.

Abstract:
Speech therapy consists in a wide range of services whose aim is to prevent, diagnose and treat different types of speech impairments. One of the most important conditions for obtaining favourable and steady results is the "immersing" of the subject as long as possible into therapeutic context: at home, at school/work, on the street. Since nowadays portable computers tend to become habitual accessories, seems a good idea to create virtual versions of human SLTs and to integrate them into these devices. However one of the main distinction between a Speech and Language Therapist (SLT) and a Computer Based Speech Therapy System (CBST) arise from the field of emotion intelligence. The inability of current CBSTs to detect emotional state of human subjects leads to inadequate behavioural responses. Furthermore, this "unresponsive" behaviour is perceived as a lack of empathy and, especially when subjects are children, leads to negative emotional state such as frustration. Thus in this article we propose an original emotions recognition framework - named PhonEM - to be integrated in our previous developed CBST - Logomon. The originality consists in both emotions representation (a fuzzy model) and detection (using only subjects' speech stream). These exceptional restrictions along with the fuzzy representation of emotions lie at the origin of our approach and make our task a difficult and, in the same time, an innovative one. As far as we know, this is the first attempt to combine these techniques in order to improve assisted speech therapy and the obtained results encourage as to further develop our CBST.

Abstract:
Abstract. Residents need to change their habitual behaviors following living space changes, such as moving or remodeling, and that may occur mental stress. This stress is a major problem, especially for the elderly, who are less able to cope with changes in their environment. To reduce this stress, a system that reflects the living information of the original houses in new houses, where habits can be retained in the new environments is needed. Many studies have been conducted to quantify life information as a habitual model using data mining and pattern recognition methods. “Process Mining” is a theory developed to visualize and improve processes in the business field and applied to lifestyle information, and it is possible to create a habit model. In recent years, several studies on habit models using process mining have been reported. However, there are no studies in which these process mining-based habit models have been adopted to design architectural spaces such as living spaces. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between habit and architectural space by utilizing a process mining-based habit model. Specifically, we propose the automatic extraction and visualization of habit behaviors through process mining and the use of habit models. The data acquisition experiment was conducted in an experimental smart home. This smart home is a mobile trailer house built by a multi-company project and is equipped with many sensors that can automatically acquire many daily living data. Subjects were recruited randomly and lived alone in this smart home for one week. An input matrix was created from the acquired data set and process mining was adapted to create habit models. In this study, two habit models were created: (1) a habit model based on behavioral information and (2) a habit model based on location information. Each input matrix consisted of (1) 16 types of behavior record data manually entered by the subject and (2) ground reaction force data in the house divided into 7 areas. We investigated the relationship between habitual behaviors and spatial conditions by integrating these two models.
