Assistant Professor in the Behavioural Science Group at Warwick Business School, Caspar Kaiser conducts research on measuring and understanding the determinants of wellbeing. His work involves enhancing the comparability of survey data to analyze how individuals' feelings can be measured cardinally. He focuses on social comparisons and inequalities, particularly concerning household incomes, and how these factors influence wellbeing. Additionally, he explores the normative implications of using subjective data in welfare measurement and the consequences this has for social mobility and causal inference within machine learning. Prior to joining Warwick, he served as a research fellow at the Wellbeing Research Centre at Oxford University and held a postdoc position at Tilburg University. His DPhil in Social Policy was supervised by Brian Nolan and Maarten Vendrik, contributing extensively to the field of welfare economics.
