Abstract :
Interdisciplinary approaches have been one of the successful methods of solving chronic and old problems in scientific fields in recent years. Governments in the modern era face society's problems through public policy and try to solve them. The level of realization of public policies is indicative of the government's success in advancing its goals and solving society's problems. On the other hand, the failure of the policy maker means the failure of the public policy. Reducing policy failure rate is a leading research issue. For this purpose, the application of the behavioral economics approach has been used in public policy making. By describing and predicting the behavior of policy actors and key stakeholders, behavioral economics provides the possibility of improving policy quality. Therefore, according to the existing researches in this field, the meta combination method was put on the agenda. Finally, with the systematic selection and analysis of 20 valid and relevant researches from about 100 primary relevant researches, a four-step model for formulating public policies and a list of 17 effective behavioral components were obtained separately for each stage in the public policy process.
