About Me
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Finance at Jinan University in Guangzhou, China.
My research focuses on the processes and underlying mechanisms of human cognition, thought, and the formation of beliefs, with a particular emphasis on the interplay between cognitive processes and behavioral decision-making.
Grounded in linguistic and informational contexts, my work examines how individuals construct, evaluate, and revise their judgments and biases. Situated at the intersection of behavioral economics, cognitive psychology, social psychology, and communication studies, my research explores how cognitive architectures and informational environments jointly shape human judgment and decision-making.
