Bio/Research

Dr. Eugene Chan holds a PhD in Marketing from the University of Toronto, an MA in Social Psychology from the University of Chicago, and an AB in Honors Psychology from the University of Michigan.

He uses experimental and survey methods and draws on theories from diverse disciplines in the social sciences to study how people make choices, judgments, and decisions in the marketplace, in organizations and society. Generally, his research revolves around three themes. First, he studies how political ideology affects consumer behaviour in both for- and non-profit contexts. Second, he studies how marketing, health and science communication should be constructed and conveyed to promote attitudinal and behavioural change for the better optimally. Third, he studies how to prompt consumers to make green and environmentally-friendly choices and decisions. Many times, his research interests intersect.

His research has been published in top-tier outlets such as the Journal of Consumer Psychology; Annals of Tourism Research; Journal of Travel Research; Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes; International Journal of Research in Marketing; Journal of Experimental Psychology: General; Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin; Global Environmental Change; and Evolution and Human Behavior.
