When it comes to changing behaviour, what really works? How well? For how long? With who? Why? Professor Susan Michie describes how the Human Behaviour Change Project is trying to revolutionise evidence synthesis and use to answer the big questions about human choices.
The Human Behaviour Change Project is developing an artificial intelligence system to continually scan the world literature on behaviour change, extract key information, and use this to build and update a model of human behaviour.
