Marie-Pierre Dargnies

Dr. Marie-Pierre Dargnies is an Assistant Professor in Economics at DRM Finance, Paris Dauphine University (PSL Research University). Her research focuses on behavioral economics and finance with experimental methodologies, particularly examining gender differences in competitive behaviors, algorithmic hiring transparency, and public goods contributions. She holds an HDR (Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches) defended in March 2024, titled 'Experiments on gender, self-confidence and trust in scientific truths.'

Education:

• HDR in Economics, Paris Dauphine University, 2024
• PhD in Economics, Paris Dauphine University, 2012 (Dissertation: 'Gender and taste for competition: An experimental economics approach')

Research Interests: Behavioral economics, experimental finance, gender disparities in labor markets, algorithmic transparency, public goods experiments, and competitive behavior analysis. Her work bridges theoretical models with controlled experiments to understand real-world economic decisions.

Publications Trends: Over 15 years, her work examines how self-confidence, gender profiling, and exogenous matching mechanisms influence economic outcomes. Recent focus areas include algorithmic hiring biases and transparency effects, as seen in her 2024 Management Science paper. Earlier studies (2011–2019) explored gender differences in competition and team dynamics.

Teaching: Teaches Behavioral Finance, Experimental Economics at M1 level, and Applied Statistics for Management at L3. Coordinates the 'Statistiques appliquées à la gestion' course.

Labs/Teams: Active within DRM Finance, part of PSL Research University's economics network.
