Call for Papers: Behavioral Insights for AI Policy and Regulation

Behavioral Science & Policy invites researchers and scholars to submit research papers exploring the intricate relationship between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and behavioral science, with a particular focus on the implications for this rapidly evolving technology for public policy. This call aims to foster a better understanding of how AI is used and the cognitive, social, and systemic impacts it elicits, while also addressing the pressing need for effective regulation. Papers may take the form of proposals, essays, new empirical research, or reviews (see below)–but must be firmly grounded in rigorous empirical behavioral science and its application to practice.
The integration of AI into various aspects of our lives has already led to transformative changes across industries, including healthcare, finance, transportation, and education. As AI systems become more prevalent and sophisticated, it is crucial to investigate how people interact with them and the consequences of these interactions for individuals, communities, and society as a whole. AI has the potential to assist in addressing complex social issues and governance through data-driven insights and the design and targeting of behavioral interventions. At the same time, the ethical and regulatory challenges surrounding AI deployment necessitate interdisciplinary research to ensure that the technology aligns with societal values, including fairness and the protection of individual rights.

We invite researchers from diverse fields, including but not limited to behavioral economics, cognitive science, computer science, ethics, law, management, psychology, public policy, and sociology to contribute original work that sheds light on the behavioral aspects of AI, and in particular, its deployment and regulation.
