Overview

Peter B. Reiner is affiliated with the University of British Columbia in Canada. Their research spans multiple interdisciplinary fields, primarily focusing on health professions, social sciences, and neuroscience. Within these areas, they have contributed substantially to subfields such as general health professions, cognitive neuroscience, safety research, public health, environmental and occupational health, as well as sociology and political science.

Reiner's main topics of research work include ethics and social impacts of artificial intelligence, psychology of moral and emotional judgment, palliative care and end-of-life issues, and ethics in medical practice. Additional areas of interest encompass the impact of technology on adolescents, digital mental health interventions, and behavioral health and interventions.

Their recent publications reflect this blend of topics and fields. Notable papers include:

  • "Blocking mobile internet on smartphones improves sustained attention, mental health, and subjective well-being," 2025, PNAS Nexus
  • "Disparities in public awareness, practitioner availability, and institutional support contribute to differential rates of MAiD utilization: a natural experiment comparing California and Canada," 2024, Mortality
  • "Ethics in the Digital Era: Nothing New?," 2020, IT Professional
  • "AI Loyalty: A New Paradigm for Aligning Stakeholder Interests," 2020, IEEE Transactions on Technology and Society
