Behavior Modeling

AIR’s applied behavioral modeling work provides scientific support to programs investigating asymmetric conflicts, behavioral threat detection, and emergency response. We support these initiatives by:

• applying statistical and measurement techniques,
• broadening the scope of the scientific basis for addressing these problems,
• evaluating research programs against best practices,
• implementing high quality database development procedures, and
• creating unique experimental designs to answer key behavioral research questions.
