Profile

 
Dr Jen-Hsien Hsu is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Marketing at the University of Leicester School of Business. He obtained his PhD in Marketing at the University of Leeds with a special interest in psychology and decision-making.

Research

My research lies in the area of psychology and consumer decision-making with a special interest in ethical choices, social persuasion (communication effectiveness), social media behaviours, sports, and gift-giving.  I focus on consumer information processing and study how situational cues (e.g., framing and heuristics) interact with consumer's chrnoic traits/ values and inform the decisions.
