Research
- My research concerns aging from a life course perspective, with a focus on
lifestyle and socioeconomic factors. Ongoing research is mainly about cohort
differences in aging, examining differences and similarities between cohorts
in how lifestyle factors and living conditions change with increasing age.
I have an ongoing project about how alcohol consumption and drinking
habits in the older population are affected by various life events, and I am
also involved in various projects concerning retirement and health.
Teaching
- Responsible for Society and Healthy, 4.5 credits, in the Psychology program.
