| Term: Spring Semester 2023 |
| Description: Interventions are an important experimental tool that psychologists and clinicians have used for years to improve health and well-being. Recently, psychologists and economists have begun applying the theories of decision making and the principles of intervention to promote behavior change. In this course, we will explore the foundations of these interventions, examine how they have been used by researchers to promote human behavior change, and evaluate the ethical implications of these procedures at scale. |
