Multiple social positions and well-being among Nordic adolescents
BACKGROUND: Research on well-being inequalities has typically examined the independent effects of social positions, often overlooking how the interplay of multiple social categorizations can shape well-being outcomes. This study explored how multiple social positions based on gender, age, immigrant background, family structure, and perceived family socioeconomic status shape patterns of inequality in three well-being outcomes-psychosomatic compla…
Poor mental health and adverse psychosocial conditions among adolescents in the Nordic countries
Background: The aim is to compare conclusions about the role of adolescent mental health in adverse psychosocial conditions depending on the analytic approach used (variable-centered vs. person-centered). In the variable-centered analyses, three mental health indicators (psychosomatic complaints, self-rated poor health, and low life satisfaction) were examined in relation to adverse physical, school, interpersonal, and personal conditions. In the…
Global change in adolescent social media use (2018–2022)
Given growing concerns about the role of social media in adolescents' lives, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, this study investigates changes in social media use (SMU) between 2018 and 2022 across 28 countries. The main aim is to detect any change in adolescents' SMU, as reflected in the rates of four categories of social media users (i.e., non-active users, active users, intense users, and problematic users) between 2018 and 2022, and exp…
Time trends in cluster profiles of psychosomatic problems, self-rated poor health, and low life satisfaction from 2002 to 2022 among adolescents in five Nordic countries
The cluster profiles reveal different trends of poor health status among adolescents over time, increases and decreases, with sex being a significant factor. The increase in poor health status over the last two decades appears concentrated in psychosomatic symptoms, possibly reflecting an increase in everyday stressors during the survey period or increased sensitivity to these stressors
Associations between eating habits and mental health among adolescents in five nordic countries
Eating habits should be considered when promoting mental health in the adolescent population. While gender differences and cross-country variations exist, even minor enhancements in eating behaviors could yield meaningful benefits
Mental health profiles of 15-year-old adolescents in the Nordic Countries from 2002 to 2022
The comparatively lower incidence of adjustment problems among adolescents in the high psychosomatic profile relative to the dual mental health group challenges the prevailing view that there has been a sharp increase in mental health problems among Nordic adolescents. This view was largely based on the observed rise in psychosomatic symptoms. Indeed, there was a doubling in the proportion of adolescents in the high psychosomatic complaints profi…
Secular trends in mental health profiles among 15-year-olds in Sweden between 2002 and 2018
Background Studies of secular trends in mental unhealth indicate that adolescents in the Nordic countries, especially girls, have an increased reported prevalence of mental health problems the last decades. This increase needs to be seen in the light of the adolescents' assessments of their perceived overall health. Objective To investigate whether a person-centered approach to research can enhance understanding of changes over time in the distri…
Nordic adolescents responding to demanding survey scales in boring contexts
INTRODUCTION: Straightlining, or identical responses across all items within a multi-item scale, is often taken as an indication that responses to all items in a questionnaire are of poor quality. The purpose of this study was to examine straightlining on two scales: The Sense of Unity Scale (SUS) and the short version of the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (SWEMWBS). METHODS: Data stem from the 2017-2018 data collections in four Nordic…
Family Structure through the Adolescent Eyes
This study aimed to investigate how family structure varies and identify its time trends in European and North American countries using data from seven surveys conducted between 1994 and 2018 according to the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study. The current family structure in 44 countries was described and time trend analysis of 28 countries was performed. Adolescents were asked whom they lived with in their home to describe fa…
Does the Delivery System Matter? The Scaling-Out of a School-Based Resilience Curriculum to the Social Services Sector
Background: The context is highly relevant to the implementation of new health-related programs and is an implicit or explicit part of the major implementation models in the literature. The Resilience Curriculum (RESCUR) program was developed to foster the psychosocial development of children in early and primary education. RESCUR seeks specifically to decrease children's vulnerability. It aims to promote the emotional and social learning of chil…
The Association between Loneliness, Mental Well-Being, and Self-Esteem among Adolescents in Four Nordic Countries
Positive mental health is central to adolescent well-being. The present study examines the prevalence of loneliness and positive mental health indicators (mental well-being and self-esteem) in four Nordic countries and associations between loneliness, mental well-being, and high self-esteem. This study is based on data from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study which was conducted in 2018 in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, and Swed…
Family Support as Smoking Prevention during Transition from Early to Late Adolescence
Family support has a beneficial impact on protecting health-risk behaviour in adolescents. This study aimed to explore whether family support is associated with risk of smoking during transition from early (11 years) to late (15 years) adolescence across 42 countries. The data from the cross-national Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study in 2017/2018 were employed (N = 195,966). Family support was measured using the four-item Fami…
Perceived Social Support from Different Sources and Adolescent Life Satisfaction Across 42 Countries/Regions
Although previous research established a positive association between perceived social support and adolescent life satisfaction, little is known about the relative importance of different sources of support for adolescent life satisfaction and cross-country variations in this respect. Using large-scale representative samples from the 2017/18 Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study, this study examined to what extent the association …

Effects on alcohol use of a Swedish school-based prevention program for early adolescents
The lack of positive effects highlights the need for policy-makers and public health officials need to carefully consider and evaluate prevention programs in order to ensure that they are worthwhile from school, health, and societal perspectives
Enabling relationship formation, development, and closure in a one-year female mentoring program at a non-governmental organization
Mentorships that are in line with perspectives of the relational-cultural theory meet the relationship needs expressed by the female protégés. Mentor training should focus on promoting skills such as active listening and respect for the protégé based on an engaged, empathic, and authentic approach in a non-hierarchical relationship. These insights have the potential to inform interventions in several arenas where young women create authentic rela…

A Resilience Curriculum for Early Years and Primary Schools in Europe
About twenty percent of school children experience social, emotional and behaviour problems during the course of any given year and may need the use of mental health services. The number may rise to up to fifty percent amongst children coming from socio-economically disadvantaged areas and from vulnerable communities. The economic crisis which Europe is undergoing at the moment has exacerbated the risks among those already facing disadvantages su…
Neighbourhood development and public health initiatives
Citizen participation in neighbourhood development is one way to promote public health and contribute to the well-being of individuals. However, some people participate while others do not. This study examines the individual characteristics of people who during the past 2 years have participated in a neighbourhood development process compared with potential and non-participants. Socio-demographic factors, perceptions and behaviour were analysed i…
Effects of a parental program for preventing underage drinking - The NGO program strong and clear
The results of the study suggested that Strong and Clear contributed to maintaining parents' restrictive attitude toward underage drinking during secondary school, postponing alcohol debut among the adolescents, and significantly reducing their drunkenness
Neighbourhood characteristics, social capital and self-rated health - A population-based survey in Sweden
The importance of the neighbourhood and social capital for individual health is confirmed in this study. The neighbourhoods could be emphasized as settings for health promotion. They can be constructed to promote social interaction which in turn supports the development of social networks, social support and social capital--all important determinants of health
Mental health symptoms in relation to socio-economic conditions and lifestyle factors – a population-based study in Sweden
Our results support the notion that a ground for good mental health includes balance in social relations, in domestic work and in employment as well as in personal economy both among men and women. In addition, physical inactivity, underweight and risk consumption of alcohol are associated with mental health symptoms independent of socio-economic factors
Adolescent Girls’ and Boys’ Perceptions of Mental Health

Partnership for Healthy Neighbourhoods
Social polarization in the urban landscape means that there are a lot of neighbourhoods with a concentration of residents suffering from high crime rates, a loss of feeling of safety, ethnic conflicts and general decay. Local and national governments respond to these challenges by adopting urban development programmes with a pronounced area-based orientation. Inspired by the global Healthy Cities Programme, some of these initiatives have an expli…

Psycho-social determinants for sexual partner referral in Uganda
Individual characteristics, area social participation, and primary non-concordance with medication
Our results indicate that people in central Sweden with younger age, financial difficulties, low self-rated health, and low trust in the health care system may have a higher probability of primary non-concordance with medication. However, the area of residence--as defined by administrative boundaries--seems to play a minor role for primary non-concordance
Anxiolytic-hypnotic drug use associated with trust, social participation, and the miniaturization of community
Socioeconomic conditions, lifestyle factors, and self-rated health among men and women in Sweden
BACKGROUND: Socioeconomic conditions and lifestyle factors have been found to be related to self-rated health, which is an established predictor of morbidity and mortality. Few studies, however, have investigated the independent effect of material and psychosocial conditions as well as lifestyle factors on self-rated health. METHODS: The association between socioeconomic conditions, lifestyle factors, and self-rated health was investigated using …
