Abstract

The following sections present some of the more elementary and straightforward applications of random walk and diffusion models in the life and behavioral sciences. Our intention here is to convey basic concepts and to focus on central, original ideas on which these applications are based, not to scrutinize technical details of the examples discussed. The literature on diffusion models of, for example, animal movement or human decision and choice behavior both contain several thousand original studies.
