Maria Rasmusson serves as a Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University's Department of Pedagogy, Didactics and Educational Sociology, where she conducts research at the intersection of reading literacy, educational equity, and quantitative analysis of large-scale assessments. Her work bridges theoretical frameworks with policy-relevant investigations into school systems across Nordic and international contexts.
Her research program centers on comparative analyses of reading comprehension in digital versus print formats, emergent literacy development in multilingual preschool settings, and sociodemographic determinants of school absenteeism. Methodologically rigorous in quantitative approaches, she leverages PISA and other international datasets to examine equity dimensions across educational systems, with particular attention to how socioeconomic status, immigrant background, and gender influence learning outcomes. Her scholarship consistently connects empirical findings to practical implications for educational policy and classroom practice.
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals a sustained focus on school attendance patterns using cross-national PISA data (2023-2024), digital reading literacy trajectories (2018-2023), and early childhood literacy prerequisites (2023). The corpus demonstrates methodological consistency in large-scale quantitative analysis while expanding into emerging areas like online learning platforms and critical digital literacy. Geographic scope spans Sweden, Germany, Japan, the UK, and Nordic regional comparisons, reflecting her commitment to internationally contextualized educational research.
