OUR RESEARCH

We collaborate with the Department of Clinical Neuroscience at Karolinska Institutet. This collaboration helps us gain a deeper understanding of young people's lifestyles, well-being, and digital media usage. As part of our research, we are evaluating the impact of using our tool in municipal schools in Linköping municipality, Sweden.

Furthermore, Linköping University is conducting a qualitative study utilizing our ongoing project within the municipal schools.

The University of Skövde is actively engaged in research across Skaraborg's municipalities, with a specific focus on investigating the potential benefits to young people's mental health through participation in the 'Det syns inte' program. This initiative is a crucial component of the broader "Kraftsamling Fullföljda studier" (Power Collection for Completed Studies) effort, which is coordinated locally through the Knowledge Node Skaraborg and generously supported by public health funds from the Västra Götaland region. Through this collaboration, we aim to shed light on how programs like 'Det syns inte' can contribute to the well-being and resilience of our youth.
