PoLaR lab is located in the A-wing (A-1005) of Breivika 3 on the Troms\u00f8 campus of UiT. Set up as an interactive, multipurpose space, the PoLaR lab houses eye-tracking (Eyelink Portable Duo), EEG (Two 32-channel Acticap\/Liv Amp systems), and communal conference facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we work with monolingual populations as well, we are particularly interested in bi-\/multingualism across the lifespan, especially as regards the interplay and weighting of internal (linguistic and cognitive) and external (language exposure\/experience, use in various home and social contexts, access to formal literacy\/education, etc.) variables that conspire to explain variation and individual differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We collaborate with researchers and labs across Europe and North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery
