Chiara Longoni

I am a social scientist and I conduct interdisciplinary work on the psychology of artificial intelligence theoretically grounded in social psychology and decision science that also draws from marketing, economics, philosophy, ethics, and computer science. I completed a Ph.D. in marketing at New York University’s Stern School of Business. I also hold a M.S. (summa cum laude) from Bocconi University, a M.A. (Honors) in Psychology from New York University, and a M. Phil. in Marketing from New York University’s Stern School of Business. Before joining academia, I worked in strategic consulting and brand management.
My primary area of research falls under the realm of investigating consumer psychological responses to applications of artificial intelligence across domains spanning healthcare, recommendation systems, automated content generation, and government service provision. A secondary area of research broadly relates to consumer and societal well-being. My work in this area looks at the determinants of positive behavior change and the drivers of sustainability and climate action.
