معرفی
Astrid Haase is a Research Fellow in the Department of Educational Psychology at Georg-August-University Göttingen, where she has been employed since 2020. Her research focuses on the psychological foundations of literacy development, with particular emphasis on morphological awareness and its connections to reading and writing skills in both monolingual and multilingual contexts. She actively contributes to the German Psychological Society and the Society for Scientific Studies of Reading.
Dr. Haase's educational background includes:
- M.Sc. in Psychology from Friedrich Schiller University Jena (2014)
- B.Sc. in Psychology from Friedrich Schiller University Jena (2011)
- Diploma in Psychology from University of Kent in Canterbury, UK (2010)
Her research examines how morphological awareness—the ability to recognize and manipulate word parts—contributes to literacy development across different language contexts. She investigates these processes in both monolingual German speakers and bilingual/multilingual learners, with particular focus on Arabic-German bilingual children. Her work explores the cognitive foundations of literacy acquisition and develops interventions to improve written language skills across diverse learner populations through projects like Morph.B. and ViaS (Reading aloud in all languages), which examines how reading aloud in multiple languages can support literacy development in multilingual settings.
Analysis of Dr. Haase's recent publications reveals a strong focus on the intersection of morphological awareness, bilingualism, and literacy development. Her work consistently examines how linguistic knowledge transfers across languages and affects reading and writing skills, with an increasing emphasis on practical applications through interventions like the ViaS project. Her research spans cognitive, developmental, and educational psychology perspectives, creating a comprehensive understanding of literacy acquisition processes across different age groups and language backgrounds.
At Georg-August-University Göttingen, Dr. Haase teaches courses including Scientific In-Depth Study: Learning Psychology, Diagnostic Basics and Performance Assessment, and Educational Psychology I. Her teaching integrates her research expertise with practical educational applications, particularly in the areas of learning disorders and educational diagnostics. She is also involved with ZEWIL (Central Scientific Institution for Teacher Education), contributing to teacher training programs.
