Bockgård's research focuses on the intersection of linguistic structures and social interaction, with particular emphasis on Swedish dialects. His work combines construction grammar and conversation analysis approaches to examine dialect syntax, particularly in northeastern Småland and southeastern Östergötland. He has also conducted historical, ideologically critical, and ethical analyses of dialect collection methods, as well as subject didactic research using recordings of teaching and group discussions in middle school settings. His recent publications demonstrate an expanding interest in qualitative research methodology, particularly regarding vulnerable populations such as women experiencing homelessness.
His scholarly contributions include numerous publications in linguistic journals and edited volumes, with a particular focus on interactional dialectology - a research area he has helped develop. His publication record shows consistent scholarly output across multiple domains within linguistics, from theoretical syntax to applied conversation analysis.
Bockgård has served as an editor for "Språk och stil: Tidskrift för svensk språkforskning" (Language and Style: Journal of Swedish Language Research) since at least 2019, demonstrating his standing within the Swedish linguistic community.
His recent work shows an interdisciplinary expansion into health research, particularly through his 2024 publication in Qualitative Health Research examining collaborative interpretation methods with women experiencing homelessness. This represents an interesting development in his research trajectory, connecting linguistic analysis with social issues.
