Ongoing projects

I'm currently dedicating most of my time to leading the TISP Many Labs study. TISP explores the global prevalence and correlates of trust in scientists and science-related populist attitudes, as well as science communication behavior and climate change-related attitudes. https://www.tisp-manylabs.com/ 

Work in this space investigates both the public's and scientists' perceptions of their role in policymaking. Current work includes the study of a large-scale, real-world case study on scientists' advocacy and its impacts on scientists' trustworthiness.

Previous work has examined individual and collective determinants of pro-environmental behavior. I'm currently interested in how attitudes towards technology influence climate change concern and pro-environmental behavior. In a manuscript that is currently under review, colleagues and I developed and tested a scale to measure technology-related attitudes.

Current research explores scientists' perceptions of the possibility of green growth versus degrowth, and analyzes the importance of GDP growth for subjective and objective wellbeing.
