Psychology research
Many people are fascinated by human behavior. Why do we act the way we do? How is our behavior influenced? To measure human behavior, all kinds of research instruments are at our disposal. We can use them for qualitative and quantitative research. An important part of studying human behavior is performing observations, for example using video recordings, physiological measurements, and facial expression analysis.
Human behavior research
Applications
Capture how infants interact socially and how their learning behaviors develop.
Interaction between children and their parents is a classical study object in developmental psychology, pediatrics, and child psychiatry.
Research on mental disorders is vital to improve early diagnosis and treatment. Learn more about our solutions for mental disorders research.
Researchers in this field aim to understand the brain mechanisms supporting cognitive and social behavior in humans.
Data integration and visualization is vital in multimodal research.
Easily code behavior, start and stop recordings, and automatically import video, audio, eye tracking, physiology, and emotions.
Many researchers have turned towards using automated facial expression analysis software to better provide an objective assessment of emotions.
The Facial Action Coding System provides a technique for the reliable coding and analysis of facial movements and expressions.
Quantify spatial behavior and gain insights into consumer behavior, place-preference, social interactions, and many more parameters.
For unobtrusive and objective observation and analysis of human behavior.

Blog post: How to study human behavior
Everyone is unique; everyone behaves differently. What is more fun than sitting somewhere - on a park bench, at the beach, or on a terrace, and watch people go by? Postures, movements, nonverbal and verbal behavior - all can be observed.
In this blog post, we describe several behavioral theories, as well as different ways to measure human behavior. Also, we discuss research fields in which human behavior plays a central role.
