Since 2012, OpenSystems UB has be developing new lab-in-the-field experiments using citizen science strategies to study human behavior through social dilemas and games.

The approach has allowed to gather data from a more diverse socio-demographic profile and in public spaces (where everyday decisions are taken) in order to better understand our social interactions. Recently we have been developing experiments to respond to social concerns in some urban contexts or within a given ecosystem. We will revise all these efforts from the last five years paying attention on both the experimental setting design and the scientific results.
