Jannica Stålnacke

PhD Student, Licensed Psychologist

I have a Master's Degree in Economics and Business Administration from the Stockholm School of Economics (1991) and spent over 10 years working as a management and human resource consultant and manager before taking a Master's Degree in Psychology from Stockholm University (2007).

My research interests are developmental neuropsychology and cognitive development and assessment. For my PhD, I study the long term effect of prenatal stress on executive functioning.

I am also interested in intelligence, especially the psychosocial development and schooling of academically gifted children.
