Professor Claire Hardaker
Professor of Forensic LinguisticsResearch Overview
I primarily research aggression, deception, and manipulation in computer-mediated communication (CMC) for evidential, investigative, and intelligence purposes. I tend to take a forensic linguistic approach, based on a corpus linguistic methodology, but due to the multidisciplinary nature of my research, I also inevitably branch out into areas such as psychology, law, and computer science.

PhD Supervision Interests
When I have capacity I typically supervise PhD students who are using corpus approaches to investigate forensic linguistic questions. I especially welcome projects that have a clear evidential, investigative, or intelligence application.
