Behavioral Sciences play a critical role in healthcare by providing insights into the complex dynamics of human behavior, which is essential for effective patient care and improved health outcomes. This interdisciplinary field combines aspects of psychology, sociology, anthropology, and social psychology to understand how people think, feel, and behave.
