I am Associate professor in The teaching and Learning of Swedish, and Reader in General linguistics. My research interest include on language development through the lifespan, and is particularly focused on language production and cognitive aspects of writing: How does a text come into being? Does this differ between writers of different ages, and with different experience? And are there similarities and differences between writing and speaking? Over the years, I have been involved in many research projects that have investigated these issues. I have further been engaged in developing research method, including investigating writing, for example using the keylogging program ScriptLog, which has also been combined with eye movement measurement. Another interest is research infrastructure, which I have been involved in in various ways, for example as deputy director at Lund University's Humanities Laboratory 2018–2021.
I am on partial leave to work on the research project "Based on a true story?" (at Lund University), which investigates how knowledge of language production processes in speech and writing can be used to distinguish between fictional and self-experienced stories.
My research focuses on language production, language development and writing and is characterized by interdisciplinary collaboration and methodological interest.
Some current research publications include an article on spelling development in middle school children with different hearing backgrounds who can and cannot know sign language, an article on what factors are important for increasing text quality in written stories, a methodological article describing how spoken language data can be anonymized in language databases that are openly available, a methodological book chapter on how keyboard logging can be combined with other methods, as well as a special issue on Interdisciplinary perspectives on reading and writing instruction in early school years, which I co-edited.
From 2022 I am the subject representative for the subject Swedish. I also lead the new research environment LiLL(Learning in Language and Literature).
I have written texts on cognitive aspects writing processes for the Swedish National Agency for Education's Läslyft, and worked with teacher guidance within Läslyftet. I have also worked with language support activities in preschool, a research circle on reading and writing for active learning, and conducted intervention research in classrooms. I have extensive experience of popular science lectures of various kinds and for different groups – school students, teachers, special education teachers, speech therapists and other professions.
In my research, I have many interdisciplinary collaborations, e.g. with researchers from cognitive science, psychology, phonetics, speech and language pathology and comparative literature.
For several years (2018–2021), I was deputy director of Lund University's Humanities Laboratory (www.humlab.lu.se), where I was responsible for the outreach activities. In that role, I met researchers from all faculties, from universities in Sweden and internationally, and also had plenty of contacts with stakeholders, organizations and people in the surrounding society.
