Research interests
Forskningen min fokuserer på flerspråkighet, språkinlærning, språklig bevisst undervisning og grensesnittet mellom språk og kognisjon, spesielt i personer med nevrologisk sykdom.
2025-2026 vil jeg samarbeide med PhD Antti Saloranta (gjesteforsker i kvensk språk ved UiT) for å undersøke det kvenske språkets fonetiske system ved å sammenligne arkiv- og egeninnsamlede taledata. I tillegg vil vi undersøke mulige forskjeller i oppfatningen av lydsystemet og grammatikken i kvensk og finsk ved hjelp av psykofysiologiske målinger.
