PhD Candidate - Department of Leadership and Organizational Behaviour
Biography
Hi! I am a PhD candidate at the Department of Leadership & Organizational Behavior at BI Norwegian Business School. My PhD project seeks to understand how emotions and psychological distance influence the way people deal with risk and uncertainty. I primarily use laboratory experiments to examine the causal nature of these relationships. My overall approach to research is guided by an interest in open science practices and reproducibility.
I am also affiliated with Trope Lab at New York University's Department of Psychology. More info about the lab and their research: https://sites.google.com/nyu.edu/tropelab/about?authuser=0
With the aim of raising awareness of open science and reproducibility, a colleague and I have set up an open science journal club at our department where people can get together and discuss everything related to open science.
For more information about my research and the open science club, check out my website here.
Have any questions or just want to get in touch? Feel free to contact me at any time!
