Background

Decision Experience and Behavior (DEB) Seminar

Research

My broad research focus is on consumers welfare and decision making processes.

I focus on two main areas:

1. Field studies on how to enhance consumers wellbeing and welfare (e.g., improve healthy food consumption habits, reduce stress)

2. Individual decision making (e.g., how we decide which advise to follow and when to stop searching for information)

If you are interested on one of these topics – you are welcome to come to talk with me!
