Research Interests: My research explores the intersection of human behavior, technology, and ethics in organizations, with a focus on goal-setting, (subconscious) motivation, and evidence-based management in AI-enabled workplaces. I examine how AI can enhance, rather than replace, human decision-making, creativity, and learning. Keywords: AI in Human Resource Management and Employment Relations; Human–AI Collaboration; Evidence-Based Management; Ethical and Responsible AI; Goal-Setting and Motivation; Cross-Cultural Management.

Research Interests: My research explores how algorithms and AI shape social, cultural, and political life, and vice versa. Much of my work focuses on how people learn about and make sense of (social media platform) algorithms. In this, I'm interested questions about power, individual and collective agency, governance of algorithms (particularly bottom-up governance), life chances and opportunities, among other matters.

Research Interests: Max Crowley is a prevention scientist investigating how to optimize investments in healthy development and wellbeing. This work sits at the intersection of social policy, prevention science and public finance. His program of research is motivated by a desire to increase the use of cost-effective, evidence-based preventive strategies to improve the lives of children and families. To accomplish this, his work aims to (1) strengthen methods for benefit-cost analyses of preventive interventions, (2) optimize prevention strategies’ impact and (3) develop best practices for how to translate these investments into evidence-based policy. In this manner, Dr. Crowley seeks to not only understand the costs and benefits of prevention, but aim to develop better interventions and encourage them to be disseminated widely.Dr. Crowley's research is funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, National Institute of Nursing Research, National Institute of Child Health & Human Development and National Institute on Aging as well as the Robert Wood Johnson, Laura & John Arnold, Annie E. Casey, Michael and Susan Dell and Doris Duke Charitable Foundations.
