Andrew Caplin is the Silver Professor of Economics at New York University, where he co-directs the Center for Experimental Social Science and leads multiple research initiatives. His primary affiliations include ongoing roles at NYU and as a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER).
Professor Caplin's research spans behavioral economics, household finance, cognitive foundations of decision-making, and economic data engineering. Key themes include:
- Modeling of economic decision-making under cognitive constraints
- Labor market dynamics and retirement behavior
- Design and evaluation of economic policies
- Integration of machine learning with economic theory
His recent publications (2019-2025) demonstrate a consistent focus on experimental economics and behavioral insights, with emerging emphasis on AI interactions and judicial decision-making. The work increasingly employs field experiments and large-scale surveys across international contexts.
Honors include election as Fellow of the Econometric Society. He leads significant grants including the Sloan-Nomis Program and Vanguard Research Initiative, supporting investigations into cognitive-economic interfaces and retirement planning.
At the Center for Experimental Social Science, Professor Caplin coordinates interdisciplinary research on human behavior using experimental methods, facilitating collaborations across economics, psychology, and data science.
