Biography

Mathias Broth is a Professor at Linköping University, specializing in human interaction in naturally occurring situations. His research focuses on how people collaboratively accomplish recognizable actions, with particular attention to activities that are produced, maintained, and altered in real time. His work employs video analysis to explore the role of spoken language and other communicative resources in interactions, especially how these resources are utilized alongside physical gestures and context. Broth's current research interests include the study of mobility in traffic, particularly regarding autonomous vehicles and how preschool children learn to engage in traffic. His scientific approach is grounded in detailed analyses of video recordings that capture a range of spoken interactions in languages such as French, Swedish, and English. He has published findings on various aspects of everyday and professional communication, highlighting practical applications in settings like theater and television production. In addition to his research, Broth teaches courses in interaction analysis and linguistics in the Department of Culture and Society (IKOS) at the bachelor's and master's levels, particularly within cognitive science programs.
