Jarrod Burgh
PhD Candidate at Indiana University
I am a Ph.D. candidate at Indiana University, scheduled to graduate in May 2025 . My research interests revolve around applying quantitative theoretical methods to behavioral economics. This involves developing systematic modeling approaches to capturing the roles of cognitive biases and information frictions in decision-making. Of particular interest is modeling the effects of overconfidence/optimism.
