Prosjekter

1) Adapting a complex systems approach in investigating resilience against and transitions into common mental health disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic
Prosjektet undersøker psykiske lidelser konseptualisert som komplekse dynamiske systemer gjennom bruk av dynamiske nettverksmodeller og non-lineære strukturelle modeller for å identifisere prosessene involvert i dannelse og vedlikehold av depresjon og angst under COVID-19-pandemien.

Veiledere: Sverre Urnes Johnson (Hovedveileder), Ole Andre Solbakken (Biveileder), Asle Hoffart (Biveileder), og Daniel J. Bauer (Biveileder).

2) Psychological Adaptiveness to Critical Events (PACE)
Psykisk helse i før, under, og etter kritiske hendelser (PACE-studien) er en nasjonalt representativ, longitudinell undersøkelse av psykisk helse i den generelle voksne befolkningen i Norge. Ved å følge over 16 000 voksne nordmenn over en 15-års periode gjennom hendelser i deres daglige liv i tillegg til kritiske hendelser av nasjonal og internasjonal omfang (f.eks. pandemier, økonomisk resesjon, og naturkatastrofer), har PACE-studien som mål å fange opp det komplekse samspillet mellom kritiske hendelser og individuelle faktorer som øker risikoen for å utvikle psykiske lidelser.

3) Psykisk helse og dens sammenheng med sosiale distanseringstiltak, isolasjon og karantene knyttet til Koronaviruset (MAP-19)
MAP-19 prosjektet er en longitudinell studie av den voksne norske befolkningen som er blitt fulgt helt siden starten av pandemien siden mars 2020. Prosjektets hovedfokus hviler på forståelsen av prosesser som samvarierer med psykiske plager under pandemier, i tillegg til forståelsen av smittevernsatferd som etterlevelse av tiltak og vaksineskepsis under pandemier.
