Research Overview
I am researching social psychology on the topic of persuasive communication and consensus-building. My central research theme is environmental issues. In many cases, some aspects of actions that deal with ecological risks entail conflict between benefits for individuals and society as a whole. To solve this problem, I’ve developed educational games called “Persuasion Game” and “Stakeholders” to simulate real community as tools for risk communication.
