  • Exploring adolescents’ ability to appraise health information

    Open AccessAnders Lund Hage Haugen, Kirsti RiiserARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2026

    Introduction Adolescents’ ability to evaluate health information is an increasingly important area in public health and health promotion; however, there is a scarcity of brief, psychometrically sound self-report tools focused on adolescents’ information appraisal abilities. In this study, we aim to validate a unidimensional short form of the Critical Health Literacy for Adolescents Questionnaire (CHLA-QA) domain A and to examine its convergent an…

  • Persistent musculoskeletal pain and its association with future mental distress in adolescents

    Open AccessKaja Smedbråten, Kirsti Riiser et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    The aim of this study was to investigate whether persistent musculoskeletal pain was associated with mental distress two years later in adolescents. Data for this prospective cohort study on Norwegian adolescents were obtained from the population-based Fit Futures study. A total of 535 students in first year of upper-secondary school, without mental distress at baseline, were included. The primary outcome was mental distress at the two-year follo…

  • Understanding Critical Health Literacy Among Adolescents

    Open AccessAnders Lund Hage Haugen, Marc Esser‐Noetlichs et al.ARTICLEJournal of School Health2023

    BACKGROUND: Schools are important arenas for the promotion of critical health literacy (CHL) among adolescents. Key domains of CHL are information appraisal, understanding social determinants of health, and abilities to act on determinants of health. In this paper, we examine the psychometric properties of the Critical Health Literacy for Adolescents Questionnaire (CHLA-Q). METHODS: A cross-sectional survey study was performed at 5 schools in Nor…

  • Unpacking the Public Health Triad of Social Inequality in Health, Health Literacy, and Quality of Life—A Scoping Review of Research Characteristics

    Open AccessHeidi Holmen, Tone Nygaard Flølo et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2023

    Social inequalities in health, health literacy, and quality of life serve as distinct public health indicators, but it remains unclear how and to what extent they are applied and combined in the literature. Thus, the characteristics of the research have yet to be established, and we aim to identify and describe the characteristics of research that intersects social inequality in health, health literacy, and quality of life. We conducted a scoping…

  • Fostering pupils’ critical health literacy

    Open AccessAnders Lund Hage Haugen, Kirsti Riiser et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sports and Active…2023Referencias: 9

    Background In Norway, the introduction of an interdisciplinary subject named Public Health and Life skills has brought about renewed attention to how health is conceptualized and taught within and across school subjects. Physical education (PE) is one subject that has traditionally been linked to health outcomes. However, a narrow focus on increased physical activity as the main outcome of PE could be counterproductive in the pursuit of health. C…

  • Developing Indicators to Measure Critical Health Literacy in the Context of Norwegian Lower Secondary Schools

    Open AccessAnders Lund Hage Haugen, Kirsti Riiser et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    A critical health literacy (CHL) approach is recommended for promoting health in the school context. This construct is complex and includes three interconnected domains: (A) appraisal of critical information, (B) awareness of the social determinants of health (SDH), and (C) collective action to promote health and well-being. In recent literature reviews, no measurement instrument that covers all three domains of CHL in the school-context was foun…

  • What is Known About Students and Sleep

    Open AccessAnn Kristin Bjørnnes, Astrid Torbjørnsen et al.ARTICLESAGE Open2021

    Higher education students are considered to belong to a population susceptible to poor sleep health; however, there is a lack of broader evidence reviews. This systematic review aims to map out and categorize the existing literature related to higher education students and sleep. The present evidence map is based on a comprehensive systematic literature search of ten electronic databases, which resulted in 15,286 unique citations. After title/abs…

  • First Graders’ Stationary Behavior in Norwegian After-School Programs

    Open AccessKnut Løndal, Siv Lund et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2021

    After-school programs (ASPs) might influence the activities and behaviors of children. The aim of the reported study was to investigate how stationary behavior unfolds during ASP time in a sample of Norwegian first graders. A total of 42 first graders from 14 ASPs were observed during one entire ASP day. ActiGraph accelerometers were used to measure the intensity of their physical activity (PA). Children were found to be involved in stationary be…
