About Measuring Behavior

Building bridges

Measuring Behavior is a conference centered around methods and techniques in behavioral research. While most conferences focus on a specific scientific area, this conference tries to create bridges between disciplines by bringing together people who may otherwise be unlikely to meet each other.

At a Measuring Behavior meeting, you will find yourself among ethologists, behavioral ecologists, behavioral neuroscientists, developmental, social and work psychologists, ergonomists, human factors researchers, movement scientists, psychiatrists, linguists, psychophysiologists, toxicologists, usability testers, and others! While the research questions and applications may be highly diverse, what all delegates share is an interest in methods, techniques and tools for the study of behavior.

Experience tells us that the focus on methodological and technical themes can lead to a very productive cross-fertilization between research fields.
