Her peer-reviewed papers have appeared in several journals and collections of papers, among others, in Journal of Pragmatics and Mouton Series in Pragmatics. She has been teaching various courses in conversation analysis, pragmatics, statistics, and language description at the University of Szeged.

Description
In Chapter 6, in the light of cross-linguistic examinations concerning recycling and replacement in the previous literature, I analyse my Hungarian corpus and set up a preference hierarchy among recycling initiated after recognizable completion, recycling initiated before recognizable completion, and replacement. I find that speakers tend to avoid replacement cross-linguistically.
