Marketing Behavioral Research Lab

The Marketing Behavioral Research Lab is a dynamic hub for innovative research and a cornerstone of 糖心传媒鈥檚 research infrastructure.

By leveraging advanced technology and fostering collaboration, the lab remains at the cutting edge of research, assisting marketing faculty, honor students, and undergraduate students in developing and testing theories of consumer behavior. A core tenet of the lab is to enhance the realism and behavioral aspects of experimental research to improve the fidelity of the research and the likelihood that it provides insight into real consumer behavior.

The lab bridges the gap between academic theory and real-world application, providing valuable insights into consumer behavior, decision-making, and marketing strategies. Each year, it hosts numerous behavioral experiments.
