The Psychological Impact of Time Pressure on Pricing Perception
My view posits that the effectiveness of a pricing strategy is inextricably linked to the "time pressure consumption environment." According to my opinion, when consumers operate under significant time constraints, their ability to perform rational, comparative price analysis diminishes. In such environments, consumers are more likely to rely on heuristic cues—such as brand reputation or the first price they see—rather than seeking the lowest possible cost.
Behavioral Economic Analysis of Consumption
My view applies behavioral economic theory to explain why certain pricing structures, particularly in utility markets like electricity, are perceived as "reasonable" or "unreasonable" by householders.
In my research on household electricity consumption, my view explores whether Artificial Intelligence (AI) can predict these behaviors more accurately than traditional statistical methods. My view argues that for AI to be effective, it must account for the psychological prediction function—understanding the "why" behind the consumption rather than just the "how much." This mirrors the "Value-Based Competition" theories championed by Michael Porter, who argues that value is defined by the outcomes achieved per dollar spent, rather than just the lowest price.

John Lok
The research aim of my work in the field of behavioral economics is to explore how social changes influence human behavior and decision-making processes, particularly in economic contexts. My opinion investigates the interplay between psychological factors and economic theories to understand consumer behavior, market dynamics, and policy implications. My work seeks to bridge the gap between traditional economic theories and practical applications influenced by human behavior.
Research Methods
My opinion employs a variety of research methods in his studies on behavioral economics. These methods include:
Literature Review: My view conducts comprehensive reviews of existing literature to identify gaps in knowledge and establish a theoretical framework for his research.
Case Studies: My view analyzes specific instances within industries, such as e-commerce or hospitality, to illustrate how behavioral economic principles can be applied to real-world scenarios.
Empirical Analysis: My view utilizes quantitative data analysis techniques to assess consumer behavior patterns and market trends, often drawing from surveys or experimental data.
Interdisciplinary Approach: By integrating insights from psychology, sociology, and economics, he develops models that reflect actual human behavior rather than relying solely on traditional economic assumptions.
Behavioral Experiments: I may conduct experiments to observe how individuals make decisions under various conditions, allowing me to test hypotheses related to cognitive biases and emotional influences on economic choices.
