dengler

Sebastian Dengler is a PhD candidate under the supervision of Jens Prüfer and Jan Potters.

As of June 1, 2017, I joined the Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology and Society (TILT) as a researcher on the ERC Starting Grant project on "Understanding information for legal protection of people against information-induced harms" (INFO-LEG) led by Nadya Purtova. My research mainly concerns privacy choices in the wake of Big Data. Using behavioral microeconomic modeling as well as laboratory experiments, I focus in particular on the effects of limited strategic sophistication of consumers.

Primary Fields: Behavioral Economics, Industrial Organization, Law & Economics

Secondary Fields: Experimental Economics, Applied Microeconomic Theory.
