Ekaterina Enchikova is a researcher in Educational Sciences specialising in educational equity, large-scale assessment, and digital education. She holds a PhD from the Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences of the University of Porto, where her doctoral research examined the comparative assessment of youth active citizenship across Europe. Her academic background combines training in psychology and psychometrics at the National Research University Higher School of Economics in Moscow with advanced methodological training in multilevel modelling, structural equation modelling, and longitudinal analysis. Between 2021 and 2024, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Research and Intervention in Education (CIIE) at the University of Porto, as part of the FCT-funded project Equity through PISA: Results and Discourses. Her work focused on analysing two decades of PISA data to track changes in socioeconomic educational equity across 87 countries, resulting in peer-reviewed publications and evidence communicated to policy audiences. Since 2024, she has extended her research focus to digital education, contributing to empirical studies on students' learning experiences in digital environments and the conditions that shape trust and engagement in digitally mediated educational settings. Her latest research brings these two research lines together, examining how socioeconomic inequality shapes whether students can translate digital access into meaningful learning outcomes.
