Research

Syed's research is in line with the University's focus on promoting well-being. He is interested in exploring how positive emotions impact consumers' personal and social well-being. His studies on emotions like gratitude and hope have caught the attention of some service companies, who recognize the role emotions play in driving profits and productivity. Syed is also investigating how positive emotions affect consumers' perceptions of brand innovation and sustainability, as well as their ability to achieve personal, professional, and social goals. In addition, he is exploring the psychological mechanisms that explain the relationship between firms' investments and positive outcomes for both organizations and consumers in various contexts, including B2C, B2B, and C2C. Syed's research also delves into the effects of positive emotions and behaviors in group settings, specifically in online groups. He is applying social marketing theories to develop campaigns against drinking and radicalization.
