About
Using mainly experimental methods, Dr Peryman’s research focuses on cultural differences in decision making, especially in situations involving uncertainty or risk.
Dr Peryman holds a PhD in Economics from the University of Exeter, a Masters in Behavioural Economics from the University of Nottingham, and a BCom (Hons) in Economics from the University of Canterbury. She has presented the results of her research at conferences in the UK, The Netherlands, and China.
Jo is also keen to apply behavioural insights to policy. During her PhD she completed an internship with a UK Government Department, where she applied ideas from behavioural economics to real-life problems. Her work has attracted funding from the UK’s Economic and Social Research Council, as well as numerous small grants from the University of Exeter’s Behaviour, Decisions and Markets Research Centre.
