Aims of the HBCP/APRICOT
The HBCP (2017-2023) and APRICOT (2024-2029) projects are collaborations between behavioural scientists, computer and data scientists and ontologists.
Building on the development of the Behaviour Change Intervention Ontology (BCIO) which has been used to report research in detail, synthesise evidence, link data sets and predict intervention outcomes in novel scenarios, future work aims to:
- Extend and improved the Behaviour Change Intervention Ontology
- Develop tools and resources for ontology development, alignment and application
The ultimate aim is to transform behavioural science and dramatically accelerate progress towards developing more effective interventions.
