Research Centre

Centre for Data and Behavioural Analytics

Applies quantitative and behavioural methods to understand how people and institutions make decisions.

About the centre

The Centre for Data and Behavioural Analytics brings rigorous quantitative methods to questions of human and institutional behaviour. We design surveys and field experiments, build datasets, and apply statistical and machine-learning techniques to surface patterns that inform policy and practice.

What we do

  • Run large-scale surveys and randomised studies on civic and economic behaviour.
  • Maintain open datasets and analysis pipelines for the research community.
  • Advise partners on evidence-based programme design and evaluation.

Collaboration

We work closely with the other centres on cross-cutting projects, contributing the empirical backbone for studies in policy, inclusion, and area studies.
