  • Profile

    I am conducting research about the impact of digital media use on well-being of adolescents. This research project will involve qualitative (focus groups) and quantitative (EMA, cognitive experiment) studies with adolescents. Within the project, it will be investigated how digital media use impacts well-being via identity processes in adolescence, as well as how ADHD-diagnosed adolescents experience the (negative) effects of digital media use. 

    Additionally, I am involved in different teaching activities (e.g., tutorial instruction, thesis supervision) at Bachelor's and Master's programmes within the faculty.
