Journal of Behavioral Economics and Policy (JBEP) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal dedicated to advancing the understanding of how psychological, cognitive, emotional, cultural, and social factors influence economic decision-making and policy outcomes.

Positioned at the intersection of economics, psychology, and public policy, JBEP provides a platform for interdisciplinary research that bridges theory and practice. The journal welcomes contributions that explore human behavior in economic contexts and offer evidence-based insights to inform policy design, regulation, and intervention strategies at local, national, and global levels.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Behavioral insights in public policy and governance
  • Nudging, choice architecture, and decision-making heuristics
  • Financial decision-making and consumer behavior
  • Health, environmental, and education economics through a behavioral lens
  • Social preferences, cooperation, and trust in economic systems
  • Behavioral labor economics and workplace dynamics
  • Risk perception, time preferences, and intertemporal choice
  • Behavioral game theory and experimental economics
  • Behavioral responses to taxation, subsidies, and welfare programs
  • Cultural and cross-country perspectives on economic behavior
