BOF Sabbatical 2021-2022 - Heidi Vandebosch.

During my sabbatical I plan to devote my time to the ongoing research projects that I am currently (co-)supervising, and often involve international and/or interdisciplinary collaborations. These projects try to extend our current knowledge 1) on evidence-based technological interventions to tackle online aggression and 2) on evidence-based technological interventions to address mental and physical health issues. Apart from that, I plan to 3) co-edit a book on Health Communication and 4) follow-up on other projects (related to eudaimonic media use, vaccine hesitancy and teacher interventions to tackle traditional bullying) and initiate new research (on digital disconnection, boredom and mobile phone use).
