Her research interests include the study of bilinguality and social influences that affect bilingual speakers. Since most of the world\u2019s population speak more than one language, and all bilinguals code-switch (switch between spoken languages) on a regular basis, Dr. Halsted has always been interested in the factors that contribute to this phenomenon. To seek answers to this question, she has conducted studies on code-switching among bilinguals who speak Arabic, German, Spanish, and French. Her most recent research focuses on German bilinguals and the reasons why they code-switch less frequently than speakers of other languages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
