Research at the Behavioural Lab

The LSE Behavioural Lab facilitates world-class behavioural research by providing state-of-the-art facilities for researchers in Central London for LSE academics, students, and external partners.

In line with the LSE mottos “to know the causes of things” “for the betterment of society”, we engage with researchers and organizations, globally, who are motivated to improve the world through better understanding of human behaviour.

Researchers have used the Lab to examine behaviour in various fields, such as behavioural economics, psychology, judgment and decision making, management, marketing, organisational behaviour, team dynamics, leadership, creativity, consumer choice, behavioural public policy, and behavioural game theory.
