About me

I’m a researcher in psychology at IGDORE and the Director of the IGDORE Sweden Foundation. My main professional interests are investigative psychology, girls in institutional state care, and open and replicable science. I strive to use my knowledge and skills to do good things for the world we live in. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I don’t.

In 2016, I finished my PhD at University of Gothenburg, Sweden, with a thesis on police interviewing techniques and verbal deception detection. The thesis included retroactive disclosure statements (RDS; p’s 27-28 & 50-51 in the thesis) which I followed up on in 2018 with additional statements published on my website. My decision to publish RDS has been covered in an episode of Everything Hertz, mentioned in a piece in Undark Magazine, and I’ve co-authored a paper on similar statements.

After 5 years abroad (Indonesia, Canada, Netherlands), I returned to Sweden in December 2019. I currently reside in Gothenburg, Sweden.

I’m a first generation university student and a proponent of viewpoint diversity.
