About

My name is Leonhard Reiter, but most people just call me Lenni1. I am a PhD student and pre-doctoral researcher in Marketing Management at the University of Vienna, supervised by Christoph Fuchs and Robert Böhm.

Affiliation: University of Vienna · Department of Marketing Management Contact: leonhard.reiter@univie.ac.at

Research

I study how people engage, evaluate, and interact with new technologies — from AI and algorithms to vaccines. I am also interested in behavioral public policies, especially in how to improve their public acceptance. My work has been featured in Forbes.

Methods

I am a quant-person. To study what interests me I use experiments, meta-analysis, mixed-effects models, machine learning, and text as data. I am a strong advocate for open science and reproducible workflows — I put all my code and material on OSF and GitHub.
