Abstract

In an increasingly globalized planet, the first volume of Behavioral Science in the Global Arena aims to provide, not only to psychology students, but all kind of professionals, with the means to learn about how behavioral sciences are applied to global issues through the United Nations (UN’s). The way it instructs is through analysis of the UN’s 17 “Sustainable Development Goals,” and how behavioral science is utilized to understand serious global problems such as child welfare, mental and physical health, terrorism, environmental considerations, aging and crime.
