Delaney's research specializations encompass behavioural science, behavioural economics, health, and wellbeing. He is actively developing projects exploring the ethical foundations and trustworthiness of behavioural public policy, mental health and economic policy intersections, and the measurement foundations of behavioural welfare economics. His influential publications include 'Daily emotional well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic' (2020, British Journal of Health Psychology), 'Childhood self-control and unemployment throughout the life span: Evidence from two British cohort studies' (2015, Psychological Science), 'The scarring effect of unemployment on psychological well-being across Europe' (2018, Social Science Research), 'Nudge FORGOOD' (2022, Behavioural Public Policy), and 'Psychological and biological foundations of time preference' (2009, Journal of the European Economic Association). These works, published in leading journals such as Social Science and Medicine, Journal of Health Economics, Economic Journal, and Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, have examined topics like mental health-economic outcome connections, preference measurement, self-control, unemployment scarring effects, and ethical behavioural interventions. Through supervision of student research and leadership in academic infrastructure, Delaney has shaped the field by fostering ethical and applied behavioural science applications.
