‘Why Do We Love Each Other?’ A Reflexive Thematic Analysis of Authentic Questions by Children in the Context of Sexuality Education in Primary Schools
Sexuality education in primary schools remains a site of socio-political contestation, yet empirical insight into children's own questions and first-person perspectives is scarce. This study addresses this gap by analysing 1901 anonymously submitted questions from eight- to ten-year-old pupils in Germany, collected during sexuality education in schools. Using reflexive thematic analysis, a two-axis framework was developed that differentiates betw…
AI as a Sparring Partner in Professional Settings
The spread of generative artificial intelligence and large language model technologies, such as ChatGPT, has sparked interest in their applicability and potential role in reproductive health counseling. This qualitative study explored the perspectives of professional counselors providing pregnancy termination counseling in Germany on the integration of ChatGPT into their work. Between November 2024 and January 2025, 20 semi-structured interviews …
AI sexuality education
Publicly available Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT have undergone rapid adoption since their release in 2022. It is likely that a large number of adolescents turn to LLMs for sexuality education, especially after their integration into mainstream search engines. However, it remains unclear what information these models provide and which underlying logics shape their outputs. This paper examines how ChatGPT responds to adolescents’ qu…
Coping with mobile-online-dating fatigue and the negative self-fulfilling prophecy of digital dating
With the rise of mobile-online-dating apps new principles have entered the dating culture, including parallel dating, acceleration, efficacy, and non-commitment. These practices negatively affect the self, inhibit dating success and contribute to the emergence of mobile-online-dating fatigue. Despite its significance, research on dating fatigue remains underdeveloped so far, with limited exploration of its underlying mechanisms and broader social…
“Loving your Work (Unfortunately, the Privilege of a Few)”
Ideas of work as a source of happiness and self-flourishing are ever-expanding in the literature of psychology, particularly positive psychology. These ideas have led to numerous academic texts exploring the notion of meaningful work, which sparks discussions about employees’ responsibility in achieving harmonious employment. While this view emphasizes the existence of work as fulfilling and personally satisfying, it also carries the danger of ov…
Where you lead, I will follow
Parasocial involvement with influencers (PII) on social media has rapidly increased in recent years. Currently, little is known about the impact of this development, as psychometrically evaluated measurement instruments capturing nuances of PII are lacking. Building on theory and qualitative findings, we developed the 39-item Parasocial Influencer Involvement Scale (PIInS), which shows good internal consistency. It comprises seven subscales empir…
Care, dying, death, and loss in children’s drawings from the Covid-19 pandemic in Sweden
Most studies gather data on children's Covid-19 experiences from proxy adults rather than from children. We explore depictions of end-of-life issues in drawings created by children in Sweden about their experiences during the Covid-19 pandemic, generated in response to an open invitation to schools, teachers, culture centers, etc. from a public archive of children's art. A transdisciplinary team inductively analyzed 172 drawings containing images…
Dystopia and Hope
Research on young people's perspectives on COVID‐19 remains limited. This qualitative serial picture analysis of Swedish children's drawings, predominately from spring 2020 ( N = 169), aimed to explore their views and meaning‐making processes. The focus was on the interconnections of two global crises in the drawings–pandemic and environmental crisis–revealing several links, such as negative emotions and dystopian expectations, as well as a lack …
Lost in Context? Critical Perspectives on Individualization
People in contemporary society are increasingly being addressed as agentic individuals who are held responsible for personal aspects of their life and beyond. These personal aspects contain the design and organization of one’s life path in terms of, e.g., (lifelong) education, work and retirement planning, health care, work-life balance, and happiness; or with regard to more abstract concepts like sustainability, individual subjects become respon…
Keeping a Foot in the Door
It is well researched that ideals of freedom and self-fulfillment through work are perpetuated by the neoliberal ideology that permeates subjective reasoning, meaning-making, and everyday practices. While these ideals may seem attractive and enticing to the subject, their pursuit usually leads to less secure working contracts and conditions. Thus, organizations can continue to enforce economic principles and increase pressure on workers while, at…

Remaining Human in Covid-19
Post-COVID-19 environments have challenged our embodied identities with these challenges coming from a variety of domains, that is, microbiological, semiotic, and digital. We are embedded in a new complex set of relations, with other species, with cultural signs, and with technology and venturing further into an era that pushes back on our anthropocentrism to create a post-human dystopia. This does not imply that we are less human or forfeit ethi…

Research related to mobile online dating so far has focused mostly on users’ specific traits or on their motives to use such applications. But which role does mobile online dating…
A Qualitative Serial Analysis of Drawings by Thirteen-to Fifteen-Year-Old Adolescents in Sweden About the First Wave of the Covid-19 Pandemic
In this article, we explore the perspectives of 13-15-year-olds living in Sweden about the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, through inductive analysis of 187 of their drawings. Through reconstructive serial picture analysis, three types of meaning were derived: (1) A new normal in dystopian scenery points to the disruption of daily life and development of new praxis and meaning in a context of threat and restriction; (2) Disrupted relationshi…

Profiling the Self in Mobile Online Dating Apps
Profiles in the widely used phenomenon of mobile online dating applications are characteristically reduced to condensed information mostly containing one or a few pictures. Thus, these picture(s) play a significant role for the decision-making processes and success, supposedly holding vital meaning for the subjects. While profile pictures in social media are omnipresent and some research has already focused on these pictures, especially selfies, …
