Mission Statement for the Foundation

The Socionomics Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to advancing socionomics, the science of social prediction pioneered by Robert R. Prechter, Jr. The Socionomics Foundation provides education and funds research exploring socionomic theory and how it can benefit individuals and institutions through a better understanding of the dynamics of social and cultural change.

What is Socionomics?

Socionomics is a new theory of social causality that offers fresh insights into collective human behavior. Over twenty years of empirical research demonstrates that social actions are not causal to changes in social mood, but rather changes in social mood motivate changes in social action. Socionomics supports this research with the hypothesis that humans’ unconscious impulses to herd lead to the emergence of social mood trends, which in turn shape the tone and character of social action. This perspective applies across all realms of social activity, including economic, financial, political and cultural.
