About Stefan Johansson

Stefan Johansson is an Associate Professor of Education at the Department of Education and Special Education, University of Gothenburg (since 2019). He coordinates two research schools (QRM and R-QRM) focusing on quantitative methods in educational research. His work primarily utilizes international large-scale assessments and register data to investigate how formal teacher competence influences student achievement. He also examines validity issues in educational assessments, such as how well PISA test scores align with national test results and grades, specifically considering the moderating role of student motivation.

Johansson serves as a member of the Questionnaire Expert Group for the OECD's Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS). He sits on the editorial board of the journal Intelligence and is a co-editor of Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability. Additionally, he reviews research proposals for the Swedish Research Council.

Johansson mainly supervises doctoral students. He teaches courses on educational assessment, evaluation, measurement quality, and statistics, including instruction in statistical software such as SPSS.
