RESEARCH INTERESTS: I am investigating people's behavior with respect to privacy issues that arise from today's technologies.
My research aims to understand why people willingly to share their personal information either directly (i.e. consciously posting information online) or indirectly (i.e. granting access to services or apps). I focus in particular on investigating the perceived concern (or more often lack of concern) about possible harms and risks resulting from information sharing behavior.
My research often involves longitudinal in-the-wild experiments aimed at collecting in-situ actions in order to examine realistic usage and extrapolate people's privacy behaviors. I aim to understand the circumstances under which we should help people to safeguard their information, with the goal that my research should help guide the development of policies and regulations.
KEYWORDS: Privacy, Human Computer Interection, User Experience, Public Policy.
