Dr. Daniel Derbyshire is a Behavioural Economics researcher who worked on the Inclusivity Project.
Daniel’s research is in the field of behavioural and experimental economics. In particular, his research has involved testing theoretical models of reputation building experimentally in the laboratory and also public goods games with heterogeneities.
Daniel’s research on the Inclusivity Project focused on measuring, and then finding solutions for, discrimination (often unintended bias) against older and disabled people within the recruitment process.
“Behavioural economics is about using insights from a wide range of fields – psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science – to improve our understanding of human behaviour and, ultimately, the economy.”
