Eugene Chan (or Eugene Y. Chan) is a professor of marketing and consumer science at Toronto Metropolitan University.[1] He conducts research on how political ideology affects consumers' decisions and choices.[2] In one of his research papers in the International Journal of Research in Marketing, he reported that conservative or right-leaning consumers were more likely to express greater emotional attachment to brands.[3]

Early life

[edit]

He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan, master's degree from the University of Chicago, and doctoral degree from the University of Toronto.[4]

Research

[edit]

Chan has published research on how food packaging can be useful against obesity,[5] and how merely exposure to concepts related to coffee can create a "coffee buzz" even without actual coffee consumption. [6][7][8] He has also published research in how sexual identity influences financial risk-taking, [9] and about how moral beliefs predict stance towards wearing face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic.[10] For his work, he received the 2018 ANZMAC Emerging Researcher Award.[11]
