Behavioral Economic applications in the assessment, prevention and psychological treatment of addictions. Pap. Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.2, pp.91-98. Epub 02-Ago-2021.

Behavioral economics is a discipline that can be useful for studying the aspects involved in the genesis and maintenance of addictive behaviors through the application of the principles of economics and psychology. In the addictions field, this discipline has been beneficial not only in accounting for the severity of addictions, but also in designing universal and selective prevention strategies, as well as treatments. However, the described model remains largely unknown among psychologists. The aim of this work is to present the principles of behavioral economics and bring the reader closer to the methodology used in this field. Evidence is presented of its application in the understanding of addictive behaviors. Clinical implications for assessment, prevention, and psychological treatment are highlighted.
