Emily Hofstetter is an Associate Professor and Docent at Linköping University's Department of Culture and Society, within the Division of Language, Culture and Interaction. Her research focuses on the intricate processes of human interaction, particularly through the lens of conversation analysis and embodied coordination. She investigates how voice, body, and non-lexical vocalizations facilitate real-time social coordination, with applications to climate change communication via megagames and workplace interactions in opera rehearsals.
Her research projects include "Switching the Current," using megagames to explore energy system transformations, and studies on non-lexical vocalizations' role in embodied coordination. Hofstetter applies the CARM methodology for communication training and has produced YouTube videos explaining conversation analysis techniques. She collaborates with researchers like Leelo Keevallik and Saul Albert, contributing to interdisciplinary fields spanning linguistics, sociology, and game design.
Publications emphasize multimodal interaction analysis, including healthcare communication, human-robot interaction, and board game studies. Her work bridges theoretical insights with practical applications in education, policy, and technology design, advocating for systems thinking in serious game development.
Hofstetter's academic affiliations include the Language and Culture research environment and the Division of Language, Culture and Interaction at Linköping University. Her research environment fosters collaborations across cultural and social science disciplines, emphasizing interactional studies' societal relevance.
