Sean Tung-Xiung Wu's focus is on the interdisciplinary and initiative studies that endeavor to integrate sciences, information systems and human behaviors. He has investigated general theories on "How Humans Make Their Selections". They are two longitudinal research series: Internet Users' Behavior and Voters' Behavior that foundationally define his research scope.

Wu developed a forecast model for internet users' growth and a "Digital Divide" model to explain the impact of the launch of the internet. The model has reached a satisfactory estimation ffor more than decades. He also suggested a hybrid model, both quantitative and qualitative, to predict voters' decisions in nation-wide elections. This model has accomplished very successful results for more than 20 years in Taiwan. Wu extracts common factors that influence the selection processes when adopting new technology or choosing politicians.

Since behavioral research results vary by their methodology, Wu is devoted to the innovation of these methodologies and developed the Survey Knowledge Management System (SKMS) to ensure data quality of survey research that is the most popular data gathering method in behavioral sciences.

Wu also has directed a web-based learning community and designed an aesthetic engineering process for the production and management of digital/web-based media.
