Welcome!  My name is Patrick Lown and I am a Research Fellow in the Government Department at the University of Essex.  My work focuses on perceptions of social inequality and economic status and their consequences for beliefs and attitudes regarding redistribution and social welfare programs.

I am also the Lab Manager of ESSEXLab, the experimental social sciences lab at the University of Essex.
