For example, among individuals from lower socio-economic groups there appears to be a strong belief that they are not in control of their own efforts to increase participation in sport. While they understand that there are benefits from taking part in sport and that it is a good thing to do, these beliefs do not translate into higher levels of participation. There is a need, therefore, to understand better why individuals who believe in the benefits of sport and exercise feel unable to participate. The policy points to the potential role for behavioural science to help us understand what lies at the heart of these decisions not to participate. “In prioritising initiatives and programmes to engage groups with lower participation levels we will use behavioural insights and other research to better understand issues around non-participation.” (Action 10, page 36 of the NSP).Taking this as a starting point, Sport Ireland’s application to the DAF in 2018 included a research project seeking to use behavioural science insights to influence the sport and physical activity behaviour of indiv
