Ep. 4: Using ontologies to structure behavioural knowledge

  • Summary

  • This episode brings together key ideas from three essays on the use of ontologies in behavioural science. It looks at how shared frameworks can help organise behavioural concepts across sectors like public health, technology, and policy—making them easier to apply, scale, and adapt.

    It also reflects on the challenges that come with this approach: from the risk of oversimplifying complex behaviour to the difficulty of maintaining frameworks that stay useful over time.

    The podcast version was created using NotebookLM and curated by Elina Halonen. It’s designed for times when listening fits better than reading—offering a way into the ideas, with links to the full texts for deeper exploration.

    The podcast version was created with AI tools and curated by Elina Halonen to reflect the intent and tone of the original.
