Forskning
- Pågående projekt
- Betydelsen av handlingar (forskningsledare)Vi undersöker mänsklig intentionalitet, hur handlingar är representerade och hur handlingar uttrycks i det mänskliga språket.
- NetWordS (forskningsledare)NetWords är ett europeiskt nätverksprogram som fokuserar på ord och ordstruktur ur ett tvärvetenskapligt perspektiv. http://www.esf.org/activities/research-networking-programmes/humanities-sch/current-esf-research-networking-programmes-in-humanities/networds.htm ...
- KONTRAST i språk, minne och tänkandeKONTRAST är en kraftfull organisationsprincip som också har stor betydelse för mänskligt tänkande, för sammanhang i diskursen och för strukturen av ordförrådet. ...
Min forskning handlar om språklig betydelse i vid mening och mina analyser gör jag inom Kognitiv Lingvistik, som är ett funktionellt ramverk. Den ledande tanken inom denna teori är att språklig betydelse är sociokognitiv och måste kunna förklaras av underliggande mentala processer och socialt beteende. Språkets betydelsebärande och interaktiva funktioner i kommunikation mellan människor står alltså i centrum. För att studera språket i bruk i text och diskurs använder jag mig både av korpusmetoder och experimentella metoder.
