Description: Personal webpage of Adam Altmejd, Ph.D. in Economics
I am a Post-doc at the Department of Finance , Stockholm School of Economics and a researcher at the Institute for Social Research (SOFI), Stockholm University. I am a research affiliate at the IZA . I received my Ph.D. from Stockholm School of Economics in 2018.
I do research in applied microeconomics, using extensive individual-level datasets to to study the causes and consequences of important real-life decisions, and how such choices are impacted by psychological biases, non-standard preferences, and the lack of information. My current work involves topics in college choice , social preferences, and household finance. I am also coordinating SWECOV, a large research program about the COVID-19 pandemic .
