The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted nearly every aspect of life across the globe. As decision-makers at the federal, state, and local level respond, they are grappling with numerous complex scientific questions. Many of these questions are grounded in the social, behavioral, and economic (SBE) sciences. Questions such as: • What strategies are most likely to restart economic growth in critically important sectors that were heavily affected by COVID-19? • How can governments more effectively encourage use of masks and other strategies to reduce disease transmission? • What recent knowledge will allow public and private sector educational entities to improve on-line learning outcomes? The Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education (DBASSE) at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM), in collaboration with the National Science Foundation, establishes the Societal Experts Action Network (SEAN). SEAN produce products designed to provide actionable responses to urgent policy questions asked by federal, state, and local decision-makers. SEAN is unique in its focus on rapid, readable, and research-based insights in response to questions on issues such as the reopening of businesses and economic growth, the education of children, the mental health and resilience of our communities, and many more. The resulting products are made publicly available and widely disseminated, which benefits not only the requesting official, but a broad range of decision-makers and the public. The value of SBE sciences in addressing problems of national importance is shared with an expansive audience, thus contributing to our nation’s overarching understanding of how best to deploy SBE knowledge in pandemic and other crisis situations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

COVID-19 大流行几乎扰乱了全球生活的方方面面。当联邦、州和地方各级的决策者做出反应时，他们正在努力解决许多复杂的科学问题。其中许多问题都以社会、行为和经济 (SBE) 科学为基础。诸如此类的问题： • 哪些策略最有可能重启受COVID-19 严重影响的至关重要行业的经济增长？ • 政府如何更有效地鼓励使用口罩和其他策略来减少疾病传播？ • 哪些最新知识将使公共和私营部门教育实体能够改善在线学习成果？美国国家科学、工程和医学院 (NASEM) 的行为和社会科学与教育部 (DBASSE) 与国家科学基金会合作建立了社会专家行动网络 (SEAN)。 SEAN 生产的产品旨在为联邦、州和地方决策者提出的紧急政策问题提供可行的响应。 SEAN 的独特之处在于它专注于快速、可读和基于研究的见解，以回答有关企业重新开放和经济增长、儿童教育、我们社区的心理健康和复原力等问题。由此产生的产品将公开并广泛传播，这不仅有利于提出请求的官员，而且有利于广大决策者和公众。 SBE 科学在解决国家重要问题方面的价值为广大受众所分享，从而有助于我们国家对如何在大流行和其他危机情况下最好地部署 SBE 知识的总体理解。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
