Rafał Jończyk is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Pragmatics, Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland, where he conducts research at the intersection of psycholinguistics, affective neuroscience, and bilingualism. His work primarily investigates how emotional processing differs between native and second languages using neurophysiological methods, particularly EEG. With a Ph.D. in English Linguistics from Poznań (2015) and postdoctoral experience at Pennsylvania State University, he has established himself as a leading researcher in bilingual emotional processing. His research interests span Affective Neuroscience , Experimental Pragmatics , Psycholinguistics , Bilingualism and Emotion , and the Neurophysiology of Creativity . His methodology heavily relies on EEG to examine language processing, with particular focus on emotional language comprehension and production in bilingual contexts. His work has demonstrated how bilinguals process emotional content differently in their native versus second languages, revealing reduced sensitivity to negative content in the second language. Jończyk's research program has evolved from early work on hemispheric specialization for emotional words to sophisticated EEG studies of emotional anticipation and metaphor processing in bilinguals. His most recent work explores hyperscanning methodologies to study real-time bilingual communication and the neural correlates of creative thinking in bilingual contexts. His publications show a clear progression from foundational studies of emotional word processing to increasingly complex investigations of emotional communication in naturalistic contexts. Cognitive Neuroscience Society Post-doctoral Fellows Award (2018) START scholarship for most talented young Polish scientists (2018) Scholarship from the Minister of Science and Higher Education (2020) Travel Grant Award for International Symposium on Bilingualism (2013) As Principal Investigator, Jończyk leads two major National Science Center projects examining psychophysiological correlates of affective language processing in bilinguals (2016-2018) and neurophysiological correlates of emotional speech production in bilingualism (2021-2025). He also participates in multiple international collaborations including NSF-funded research on divergent thinking in engineering education. His editorial roles include Topic Editor for Brain Sciences and Associate Editor for Applied Psycholinguistics, reflecting his standing in the field.

His scholarship uniquely connects historical analysis of reform milestones with contemporary policy challenges, particularly examining how state-market interactions shape technological advancement and global economic integration. This dual focus on institutional evolution and sectoral transformation has established him as a critical interpreter of China's development model for both academic and policy audiences. Analysis of his 2020-2024 publications reveals a decisive shift toward examining China's industrial policy architecture and state capitalism mechanisms. Key thematic clusters include the conceptualization of 'Grand Steerage' in state-economy relations, the restructuring of science-technology systems, and the sectoral implementation of industrial policies. These works collectively document China's evolving governance approach—from market liberalization to targeted state direction—while analyzing implications for global trade and innovation ecosystems. His scholarly recognition includes: Ohira Memorial Prize for 'Growing Out of the Plan: Chinese Economic Reform, 1978-1993' (1996) Administrative leadership has been integral to Naughton's career, serving as Associate Dean of GPS (1992-1995, 2001-2003) and Chair of UCSD's Chinese Studies Program (1998-2000).
