The National Academies Policy Roundtable of the Behavioral and Social Sciences is exploring ways in which the behavioral and social sciences can better inform and otherwise contribute to more effective and efficient government policies and programs. Building upon the recent National Academies report, Using Science as Evidence in Public Policy, the Roundtable brings together those who make or advise on policy, those who conduct policy-relevant research, and those who fund research and data collection in order to provide the interaction necessary for the production of relevant research that policy makers can use. The Roundtable informs policy makers of the relevance and utility of behavioral and social science research and engages researchers in formulating researchable questions that meet their needs. The Roundtable also contributes to the development of research to better understand and advance the use of science to inform public policy and is a source of ideas for future National Academies workshops, conferences, and studies. Roundtable members discuss priority issues in the use of behavioral and social science research for public policy and engage in dialogue, share information, and suggest ideas for further exploration and further research. A public workshop usually follows with presentations and discussions on identified topics that would further advance the use of science in public policy. About three meetings of the Roundtable are to be held each year. Brief summaries of the Roundtable discussions, or meeting recaps, are provided to members and a summary or proceedings of workshops is to be publicly available. Broader Impacts. For scientific research to continue to contribute to societal well-being, it is critical that decisions on public policies are informed by relevant scientific knowledge. The creative dialogue within the Policy Roundtable and the presentations and discussions at its workshops will serve this important purpose.

行为和社会科学的国家科学院政策圆桌会议正在探索行为和社会科学如何更好地为政府政策和计划提供信息，并以其他方式为更有效和高效的政府政策和计划做出贡献。 在最近的国家科学院报告的基础上，利用科学作为公共政策的证据，圆桌会议汇集了那些制定或建议政策的人，那些进行政策相关研究的人，以及那些资助研究和数据收集的人，以便为决策者提供必要的互动。 圆桌会议向政策制定者通报行为和社会科学研究的相关性和实用性，并让研究人员参与制定满足他们需求的可研究问题。 该圆桌会议还有助于研究的发展，以更好地理解和促进科学的使用，为公共政策提供信息，并为未来的国家科学院研讨会，会议和研究的想法来源。圆桌会议成员讨论在公共政策中使用行为和社会科学研究的优先问题，并进行对话，分享信息，并提出进一步探索和进一步研究的想法。 公共研讨会之后通常会就确定的主题进行介绍和讨论，这些主题将进一步推动科学在公共政策中的应用。 圆桌会议每年约举行三次会议。 圆桌会议讨论的简要摘要或会议摘要将提供给成员，研讨会的摘要或会议记录将公开提供。 更广泛的影响。 为使科学研究继续为社会福祉作出贡献，至关重要的是，公共政策的决定必须以相关科学知识为依据。 政策圆桌会议内的创造性对话及其讲习班上的发言和讨论将有助于实现这一重要目的。
