# Introduction

The Behavioral Insight Design (BID) framework guides developers in integrating behavioral science into UI/UX design. It helps in understanding behavioral tendencies, psychological principles, and common biases that affect user interactions.

The five stages of the BID framework are:
1. **Interpret the User's Need**: Clarify the core question and build a data narrative.
2. **Notice the Problem**: Identify friction points and areas of high cognitive load.
3. **Anticipate User Behavior**: Mitigate biases such as anchoring and framing.
4. **Structure the Dashboard**: Organize layout and design to enhance usability.
5. **Validate & Empower the User**: Summarize insights and facilitate collaborative decision-making.

This vignette introduces the core ideas behind each stage and how they interact to create effective, bias-aware dashboards.
