Jesper Aagaard is an associate professor at the Department of Psychology and Behavioural Sciences at Aarhus University, Denmark. His research is situated within the field of technopsychology and focuses on the interplay between humans and digital technologies, particularly in educational settings. He explores how phenomena such as distraction, multitasking, and phubbing affect attention, learning, and social interaction. Drawing on postphenomenology, Aagaard investigates how digital devices shape experience and behavior in everyday contexts. His empirical work is grounded in qualitative inquiry, often involving interviews and observational studies to understand how individuals engage with technology both in structured environments and informal routines. In addition to his research, Aagaard contributes to teaching and academic events and participates in wider discussions on the role of digital media in society. His work aims to inform both theoretical perspectives and practical considerations related to technology use and digital habits.
