Juliana Schroeder

Juliana Schroeder is an American behavioral scientist and academic. She is a professor at University of California, Berkeley.^[1]

Schroeder's educational background includes a B.A. in psychology and economics from the University of Virginia,^[2] an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business,^[1] and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Psychology and Business from the University of Chicago.^[3]

Schroeder teaches at the Haas School of Business.^[1] She is the director of the Experimental Social Science Laboratory (Xlab) at UC Berkeley,^[4] as well as a faculty affiliate in the Social Psychology Department, the Cognition Department, and the Center for Human-Compatible AI at UC Berkeley.^[1]

Schroeder is the cofounder and director of the Psychology of Technology Institute, which supports and advances scientific research regarding the psychological consequences and antecedents of technological advancements.^[5]

Schroeder also occupies a number of academic roles outside of Haas. She is an elected member of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, American Psychological Society, Society for Judgment and Decision Making, Academy of Management, International Association of Conflict Management, Association for Consumer Research. Schroeder also serves as an ad-hoc reviewer of peer-reviewed journals such as Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Group Processes and Intergroup Relations, and Academy of Management.^[1]

Schroeder's research examines how people make social judgments and decisions.^[1] She studies the psychological processes underlying how people think about the minds of those around them, and how their judgments then influence their decisions and interactions.^[6]

Schroeder co-authored numerous times with Francesca Gino. After Gino was fired from Harvard amid allegations of research fraud, Schroeder founded the "Many Coauthors" project. Schroeder revealed that a paper she had coauthored with Francesca Gino was compromised. ^[7]

Nick Brown, a scientific-integrity researcher affiliated with Linnaeus University in Sweden, said he is "100 percent" certain that the data were tampered with: “In my view, there is no innocent explanation in a universe where fairies don’t exist.”^[8]

Schroder agreed the data were tampered with: “I think it’s very likely that they were." The authors requested retraction. The journal's retraction notice alleged that Schroeder had participated in some of the data tampering.^[9]

A second article Schroder coauthored with Gino also had data irregularities.^[10] This paper was also retracted. Schroeder had contributed the compromised data. Schroeder said: “I couldn’t feel worse about that paper and that study...I’m deeply ashamed of it.”^[8]
