I am a senior researcher at VIVE – The Danish Center for Social Science Research.
My research takes place within the fields of public administration, political science and child and youth research. Specifically, my work focusses on implementation of public programs, how citizens interact with the public sector and how we can reach them, and how citizens evaluate this interaction. Moreover, I do research on survey methodology such as question-order bias and nonresponse bias. Currently, I am working on different projects seeking to understand adoption and implementation of interventions, public employees’ choice of and use of continuing education, and citizens’ lexicographic preferences. I use quantitative, primarily experimental, methods in my work.
