I am Elena, a PhD student in Experimental Psychology supervised by Dr. Titone. I earned my BSc degree in Linguistics (Mari State University, Russia) and MSc degree in Education and Dyslexia (Southampton University, the UK). My research interests encompass interdisciplinary studies of bilingualism, reading, reading comprehension, executive functions, as well as language education. In my research, I use behavioural, eye-tracking, and EEG methodologies.
My doctoral research specifically examines the role of comprehension goals during reading (e.g., reading for entertainment, studying, etc.) in bilingual individuals with diverse linguistic profiles.
