The questions Annika works with are related to how we can get people to travel in a more eco-friendly manner or how we can get people to accept different necessary policies directed towards dampening the effects of environmentally harming behavior. The common denominator for all these questions is the investigation of how attitudinal factors, personal resources, contextual factors, and habits/routines affects related thoughts, intentions and behaviors.

Annika Nordlund is associate professor in psychology. Director of Research, Transportation Research Unit (TRUM), Umeå University. She is interested in the human dimension of the environmental problems in the world. Her research interest is broadly found within the areas of environmental and social psychology and more specifically within the influence of psychological factors in different types of environmentally relevant behavior.
