Susanne Brouwer

Susanne Brouwer is an assistant professor in Psycholinguistics, with a PhD from the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, where she investigated how reduced words like "yesay" are recognized in communication. She has since studied various aspects of everyday communication, including the effects of background noise, prediction in bilingual adults and children, and the role of visual language like gestures. Her current research, focused on the intersection of language, cognition, and emotion, explores how factors like foreign accents, bilingualism, and environmental influences impact speech comprehension and moral decision-making.
