The National Academies of Sciences, Medicine and Engineering (The National Academies) in Washington, DC was chartered in 1863 with the mission of advising the government on scientific matters. The Board on Behavioral, Cognitive, and Sensory Sciences (BBCSS), set up with original funding from the National Science Foundation, has functioned as the primary voice for behavioral, cognitive, and sensory sciences for nearly 20 years within the National Academies and to external national and international stakeholders. BBCSS promotes cross-disciplinary inquiry into complex scientific and policy questions, draws attention to the behavioral sciences for national policy initiatives, and engages research scientists to develop a vision of where the behavioral sciences are headed. It also provides a forum for objective, independent, and rigorous deliberation among researchers, the public, the media, Congress, professional associations, the National Science Foundation and other federal agencies in a variety of activities that it oversees. This award supports the core activites of the Board. BBCSS oversees numerous consensus studies, workshops, expert meetings, and seminars involving hundreds of volunteer experts drawn from the top echelons of the behavioral sciences. Several themes will be addressed in the five years covered by this award, including Reliable Science: Replicability, Reproducibility and Generalizability; Education and the Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences; Brain and Behavior Across the Life Span; and Social and Behavioral Sciences for National Security. Progress made on these themes (and additional ones that may emerge) can be tracked on the Board's publicly-accessible website.

位于华盛顿特区的国家科学、医学和工程学院 (The National Academies) 于 1863 年成立，其使命是就科学事务向政府提供建议。行为、认知和感觉科学委员会 (BBCSS) 在美国国家科学基金会的原始资助下成立，近 20 年来一直在美国国家科学院内部和外部充当行为、认知和感觉科学的主要代言人国家和国际利益攸关方。 BBCSS 促进对复杂科学和政策问题的跨学科探究，提请人们关注国家政策举措中的行为科学，并让研究科学家参与制定行为科学发展方向的愿景。 它还为研究人员、公众、媒体、国会、专业协会、国家科学基金会和其他联邦机构在其监督的各种活动中进行客观、独立和严格的审议提供了一个论坛。 该奖项支持董事会的核心活动。 BBCSS 监督大量共识研究、研讨会、专家会议和研讨会，涉及数百名来自行为科学顶级梯队的志愿专家。该奖项涵盖的五年内将讨论几个主题，包括可靠的科学：可复制性、再现性和普遍性；教育以及行为和认知科学；整个生命周期的大脑和行为；以及国家安全的社会和行为科学。这些主题（以及可能出现的其他主题）取得的进展可以在董事会的公开网站上跟踪。
