About Marta

Our beliefs, attitudes and behaviors are influenced everyday by the people around us. Adopting different methodologies from economics, psychology and psycopharmachology, I am investigating the role of social influence and conformity in shaping social preferences and behavior. My other research interests include information processing and belief updating during social conformity. 

Background

I have an assorted background: I completed my bachelor in Economics, Finance and Institutions  at Roma Tre University in Italy and finished a two year Research Master in Neuroeconomics at Maastricht University, in the Netherlands.  I attended a research internship in the Los Angeles Behavioral Economics Lab (Label)  at  University of Southern California (USC, Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences), during which I conducted research on economic decision-making, under the supervision of Prof. Giorgio Coricelli.
