Behavioral sciences are based on the study of human behaviour and societal relations. By using diverse methodologies, this research group strives to understand the behaviour of human beings, both individually and in groups. Besides fundamental knowledge connected to fields such as Psychology and Sociology, this group seeks interdisciplinary evidence that can be applied to different settings - such as health, law, environment, politics, enterprises, community organisations and society in general - with different purposes - such as assessment, promotion, prevention and intervention.

This research group is aligned with the following SDGs: SDG 3, SDG 5, SDG 16
