Welcome!

Christian Walter – Postdoctoral Researcher at
Ghent University

 Hello
I am a researcher at Ghent University. My research fields are behavioral economics and experimental economics with a wide range of different applications.

All projects share the common goal to receive a better understanding of human decision-making.
I use field and lab experiments to obtain answers to relevant social, policy-relevant, and economic questions. 

Current Research Topics

How to motivate employees?

Why there are
no men in childcare?

How to structure leadership?

When and why do people discriminate?

News

Happy to have been selected for the 3-year Special Research Fund scholarship by Ghent University. The topic of the project: An economic perspective on Game Elements, Gamification, and Playful Work. 


After a long time lurking big names on Twitter and enjoying fruitful content on diverse discussions, I started my own Twitter account for research-related topics. Planning to communicate more of my current work and research-related matters (conferences, talks, thoughts) to the broader public.
