Anezka KuzmicovaPostdoktor

Min forskning rör olika samtida former av läsning. Jag är intresserad av läsning som intellektuell färdighet, estetisk upplevelse, och både biologisk och kulturell praktik. Min doktorsavhandling (2013) var en analys av den skönlitterära läsarens sinnesföreställningar. Den tillhörde en forskningsinriktning som kallas ”embodied cognition” och som studerar det mänskliga tänkandet utifrån kopplingarna till kroppen och den fysiska miljön. Jag samarbetar internationellt med forskare inom skilda ämnen så som pedagogik, kognitionsvetenskap eller samhällsvetenskaperna och använder gärna deras forskningsmetoder. Mina senaste artiklar handlar om följande:

• den fysiska miljöns inverkan på läsupplevelse

• den digitala ljudboken från kognitiv och estetisk synpunkt

• e-böcker i smarta mobiltelefoner

• förhållandet mellan skönlitterära läsvanor, attityder till läsning, estetisk känslighet och empati
