Research

My funded research relates to gendered aspects of health, particularly in the context of school-related health, but also in relation to cyber harassment. My focus is on social determinants for health and the psychosocial environment, but I have also a specific focus on gendered conditions for health such as offline/online sexual harassment, physical violence and threats.
My research includes methods such as questionnaire studies, focus group interviews, individual interviews as well as visual participatory action research methods.
Another focus is the work environment in the adult population, currently the hospitality business in relation to sexual harassment, racism and violence/threats.
