Research project The highly sensitive person in the making

The overall aim is to investigate how notions of sensitivity and the highly sensitive person/child (HSP/C) are discussed and negotiated in social interaction online, and how the concept is launched and distributed in a Swedish (online) context. The aim, more particularly, is to problematize discursive practices concerning HSP/C through production of knowledge, social categorization and identification in relations to the digital, cultural and societal context.
