I’m Jon!

I am an Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior at WashU. I am interested in human behavior--the causes and consequences of the judgments that people form and the decisions that they make.

My research spans many domains of behavioral science, including: perceptions of risk and uncertainty, behavioral ethics, political decision-making, descriptive social norms, and behavioral interventions (i.e., nudges) to improve individual decisions.

I am both personally and professionally interested in Effective Altruism, including the ways that decision science may support EA causes.
