Research summary
AI-generated

Torsten Reimer studies how people process information and make decisions, both individually and in groups, with a strong focus on communication, persuasion, and social influence. Much of his recent work applies these ideas to real-world sustainability topics, such as how people adopt solar panels, smart home assistants, and electric vehicles, and how they set thermostats or choose energy plans. He also examines group decision-making processes and factors like privacy concerns, social identity, and political affiliation that shape consumer and social behavior.
