Megan E. Weber
PhD Candidate in Behavioral Decision Making
University of California, Los Angeles - Anderson School of Management
I'm a behavioral science researcher studying how people make judgments and decisions involving costs and benefits that unfold over time. This includes investigating what strategies people are willing to use to pursue their goals, what aspects people consider when making moral decisions, and what factors influence perceptions of public policies. I'm especially interested in applying these insights to improve choice architecture, inform communications, and drive behavior change.
Before starting my PhD, I worked at Ipsos Public Affairs in Washington, DC. At Ipsos, I managed market research surveys, conducted qualitative and quantitative research for government clients, and worked on a variety of consulting projects related to improving communications and operations.
