Førsteamanuensis
Handelshøgskolen
I am working as an Associate Professor at the Road Traffic Section, Nord University Business School. I took my doctoral degree in psychology and my research interests lie in the areas of traffic and transport psychology.
I have some teaching in traffic psychology and quantitative research methods topics.
In my research, I mainly focus on examining the role of different psychological factors (e.g., attitudes, risk perception, and social norms) in explaining road users' traffic behaviors and travel choices. My main research topics are risky road user behaviors, road safety attitudes, use of sustainable transport modes, driving education, and cross-cultural differences in traffic safety behaviors and attitudes.
