Chen’s work explores how incomplete information and behavioral biases shape macroeconomic outcomes. Key themes include inflation effects on households, fiscal-monetary policy interactions, and financial stress dynamics. They employ heterogeneous-agent models and analyze how micro-level shocks propagate through the economy.
Their publications and working papers address topics like credit cycles, demand shock propagation, and the psychological underpinnings of economic decisions. Papers such as Low Interest Rates and Risk Taking (2019) and Confidence and the Propagation of Demand Shocks (2022) highlight their interdisciplinary approach.
