What is the take away from the abstract from Behavioral science at the crossroads in public health: Extending horizons, envisioning the future Thomas A. Glass*, Matthew J. McAtee Abstract The social and behavioral sciences are at a crossroads in public health. In this paper, we attempt to describe a path toward the further integration of the natural and behavioral sciences with respect to the study of behavior and health. Three innovations are proposed. First, we extend and modify the “stream of causation” metaphor along two axes: time, tie itveis of nested systers of social and biological organization. Second, we address the question of whether ‘upstream’ features of socal context are causes of disease, fundamental or otherwise. Finally, we propose the concept of a risk Regulator so edvance the study of behavior and health in populations. To illustrate the potential of these innovations, we develop a multilevel framework for the study of health behaviors and obesity in social and biological context.
