Robert Johansson Associate Professor

About me

The main area for my research is in the field of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Our research is based on the premise that general-purpose intelligence can be seen as an instance of a kind of abstract response patterns called arbitrarily applicable relational responding (AARR). For a longer definition of AARR and how it relates to AGI, please see my 2019 paper linked below:

Johansson, R. (2019). Arbitrarily applicable relational responding. In International Conference on Artificial General Intelligence (pp. 101-110). Springer, Cham. Link to paper.

I also do research in clinical psychology, where I have a broad range of interests, with a particular interest in emotion-focused psychotherapy models. Please see my Google Scholar page for representative publications.
