Foundation models have been increasingly applied to behavioral science domains such as psychology, sociology, and economics. While these models show promise in individual tasks such as survey response prediction and human-subject experiment simulation, there remains no systematic understanding of how well they perform…

'Xingzhi Cui' 'Kuang-Yu Lo' 'Ruoyi Gao' 'Xingjian Zhang' 'Jin Huang' 'Walter Yuan' 'Matthew O. Jackson' 'Qiaozhu Mei'] Despite their success in numerous fields, the potential of foundation models for modeling and understanding human behavior remains largely unexplored. We introduce Be.FM, one of the first open…

Behavior is a unifying organismal process where genes, neural function, anatomy and environment converge and interrelate. Here we review the current state and discuss the future impact of accelerating advances in technology for behavioral studies, focusing on rodents as an exemplar. We frame our perspective in three…

People work with AI systems to improve their decision making, but often under- or over-rely on AI predictions and perform worse than they would have unassisted. To help people appropriately rely on AI aids, we propose showing them behavior descriptions, details of how AI systems perform on subgroups of instances. We…

Studying ‘behavior’ lies at the heart of many disciplines. Nevertheless, academics rarely provide an explicit definition of what ‘behavior’ actually is. What range of definitions do people use, and how does that vary across disciplines? To answer these questions we have developed a survey to probe what constitutes…

Title: Simple Summary This essay presents two lines of argument to suggest that the extension into adulthood of specific processes of phenotypic differentiation that are typical of early development underlies the evolution of cognition. The first of these lines is organized around (1) human neoteny (referring to the…

This paper offers a formal account of policy learning, or habitual behavioural optimisation, under the framework of Active Inference. In this setting, habit formation becomes an autodidactic, experience-dependent process, based upon what the agent sees itself doing. We focus on the effect of environmental volatility on…

There are many situations in which it would be beneficial for a robot to have predictive abilities similar to those of rational humans. Some of these situations include collaborative robots, robots in adversarial situations, and for dynamic obstacle avoidance. This paper presents an approach to modeling behaviors of…

Ethically , behavior analysts are required to use the least aversive and restrictive procedures capable of managing behaviors of concern. This article introduces and discusses a multi-element paradigm for devising support plans that include ecological, positive programming, and focused-support proactive strategies for…

Predicting and understanding behaviour is a primary objective of many disciplines, especially human behaviour, as it is the cause of many of the world’s most pressing problems. Although it is a fundamental concept in multiple disciplines, there is no agreed operational definition of what it is. Neither is there a…

Autism spectrum is characterized by difficulties in social communication and interactions and limited, restricted patterns of behavior, interests, and activity. It is diagnosed and described on the basis of behavioral characteristics. Therefore, behavior research plays a critical role in better understanding the…

Over the past decade, several studies have demonstrated that idiosyncratic animal behaviors remain stable over long time periods. The stability of individually variable behaviors over time is often referred to as an animal’s individuality, or personality. However, most experimental studies have focused on individuality…

Researchers and practitioners recognize four domains of behavior analysis: radical behaviorism, the experimental analysis of behavior, applied behavior analysis, and the practice of behavior analysis. Given the omnipresence of technology in every sphere of our lives, the purpose of this conceptual article is to…

We present a new methodology to partition different sources of behavior change within a selectionist framework based on the Price equation – the Multilevel Model of Behavioral Selection (MLBS). The MLBS provides a theoretical background to describe behavior change in terms of operant selection. Operant selection is…

This paper presents an interdisciplinary framework, Machine Psychology, which integrates principles from operant learning psychology with a particular Artifical Intelligence model, the Non-Axiomatic Reasoning System (NARS), to advance Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) research. Central to this framework is the…

The experimentally observed swelling and collapse response of weakly charged polymers to the addition of specific salts displays quite convoluted behavior that is not easy to categorize. Here we use a minimalistic implicit solvent / explicit salt simulation model with a focus on ion-specific interactions between ions…

By way of operant conditioning, human behavior is continuously shaped and maintained by its consequences - and understanding this process is important to most fields of psychology and neuroscience. The role of the learning organism’s environment has long been contentious, however. Much relevant research is being done…

Nanoporous frameworks are a large and diverse family of materials, with a key role in various industrial processes and applications such as energy production and conversion, fluid separation, gas storage, water harvesting, and many more. The performance and suitability of nanoporous materials for each specific…
