My research interest and publications fit into the field of social thinking, especially social representations (anchoring, mythical thought, beliefs, names, gift) throught mixed methods. These past few years, different themes have raised my interest (for ex : national identity, political thinking, justice, kinship and gift, health), inspired mainly by research projects and contracts. I am particularly interested in language from a communication point of view and textual analysis. A part of my publications also deals with social psychology history building and narrative.
I am currently working on:
(2023-26): SciDADE (Sciences, Digital Accessility, Deafness and Education) UL2 (ECP, DDL, GRePS), UL1 (PGNM).
