Wei James Chen (陳 暐)
I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Agricultural Economics, National Taiwan University. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the Ohio State University. I was also associated with the Krajbich Neuroeconomics Lab, the Business Administration Department at the National Central University, the Behavioral and Data Science Research Center at the National Taiwan University, and the Marketing Department at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. More detailed info about me can be found on the CV page. You can also find me on Facebook.
Our lab’s research method include experimental economics, neuroeconomics, and data science. I employ computational modeling, neuro/behavioral experiments, and machine learning models to advance our understanding of learning and decision-making in the field of environmental and political economics. You can access some of my working papers on the research page.
In my experiments, I utilize various tools including mouse-tracking, eye-tracking (including pupil dilation), EEG, and fMRI. These experiments are coded using software such as zTree, oTree, PsychToolbox, and PsychoPy, enabling me to investigate economic behavior in-depth.
I also taught some courses, and you can find the list on the teaching page.
