Supervision

Prospective PhD students are encouraged to send Jan a targeted proposal (maximum two pages) which relates to the dark side of social media & consumerism.

  2. Why do consumers make negative (unethical) comments towards brands, other consumers, or influencers on social media?
  3. How can brands manage hostile or hateful consumer-to-consumer interactions?
  4. The interplay between digital CSR, negative brand experiences, and consumer well-being

His teaching interests include:

  • Digital marketing
  • Consumerism & psychology
