Supports research that studies the behavior of individuals and groups by leveraging data and network science and the development of data infrastructure that makes such work possible.
Supports social scientific studies of the connections between law and law-like systems of rules, law and human behavior, as well as studies of how science and technology are applied in legal contexts.
Supports research and research infrastructure on issues broadly related to global and national security, including international conflict and dispute resolution, domestic political instability and civil war, and the security implications of climate change.
Supports theoretically motivated research on governance-related attitudes, behavior and institutions in democratic and non-democratic settings, in areas such as preference formation and expression, voting and elections, and decision making and public policy.
Supports research that increases understanding of how individuals, organizations and societies make decisions. Areas include judgment, decision analysis and aids, risk analysis and communication, public policy decision making and management science.
The Economics program supports research designed to improve the understanding of the processes and institutions of the U.S. economy and of the world system of which it is a part. This program also strengthens both empirical and theoretical economic analysis...
Supports doctoral dissertation research that increases understanding of how individuals, organizations and societies make decisions. Areas include judgment, decision analysis, risk communication, public policy decision making and management science.
Supports the development of analytical and statistical methods and models with potential utility in multiple fields of the social, behavioral and economic sciences.
Supports historical, philosophical and social scientific studies of the intellectual, material and social aspects of STEM — including ethics, equity, governance and policy issues relating to scientific theory and practice.
Supports research to advance theory on the design and management of organizations; the behavior and well-being of individuals within organizations; and the relationships between people, organizations and systems.
Supports the development of theories, models, analytical tools, data and metrics that can inform the science of science, science policy, public outcomes and the advancement of the scientific enterprise, with a focus on the biomedical sciences.
Supports research focused on advancing knowledge and theory on the social science of scientific discovery; theories, models and data improving our understanding of scientific communication; and how science advances evidence-based policymaking and public value.
Supports interdisciplinary collaborations integrating research on behavioral and/or social processes in mathematical epidemiological models. The goal of this program is to minimize unintended outcomes of public health interventions in response to pandemics.
