Research
When given an opportunity of unfair enrichment, do different people react differently to varying sums offered, punishment risks and moral climates? And does this difference lay in their personal morality, self-control capacity or something else? Founded in situational action theory, Andrzej’s planned research will use experimental methods derived from behavioural economics to study the interplay of incentives, norms and controls in corrupt decision-making.
Alongside his main project, Andrzej is also passionate about (and open to collaboration on) several further topics: offender decision-making, sentencing inconsistencies, punitive sentiments in the general public, and the experiences of criminal justice involvement among middle-class individuals.
