Profile
Lisa Herbig is a PhD Candidate at the University of Amsterdam and the Duitsland Instituut Amsterdam working within the COVIDEU project. In her thesis she focuses on the public justification of restrictive measures and the effects thereof. Specifically, her research is concerned with the justification of border policies during the COVID-19 pandemic and the so-called migration crisis in Germany. To learn more about those topics she applies various quantitative (DiD designs), qualitative (content analysis), text-as-data and experimental methods (factorial survey experiments).
Previously, Lisa has worked on the Viral Communication Project, which explored changes in public opinion through the course of the pandemic in Germany. Topics covered in the project included the support for preventive measures, vaccination willingness, trust in political and scientific actors as well as conspiracy beliefs.
Lisa holds a Master in Intercultural Psychology from Osnabrück University and a Bachelor in Psychology from the Goethe University Frankfurt.
