Economic psychology in the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science brings together experts in social psychology and behavioural science who seek to understand and shape economic behaviours.
Researchers in this field bring multidisciplinary expertise - along with cutting-edge research techniques such as Subjective-Evidence Based Ethnography (SEBE) that have paved the way for understanding human behaviour and perspective taking in context - to address some of the pressing issues in the world today, including ethical consumption, digital and smartphone use and behaviour change.
Experts in the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science work across the following broad themes and topics:
- Consumer psychology
- Environmental psychology
- Smartphone use and digital behaviours
- Subjective Evidence-Based Ethnography (SEBE)
- Installation Theory.
Our research is anchored in a shared evidence-based approach that is theoretically informed and policy relevant.
