Abstract
Abstract. Research of the Division of Educational Psychology and Health Psychology has four main topics: 1. Analysis of processing of threat-related information in children is seen as a step towards a better understanding and assessment of vigilant and avoidant coping strategies. 2. Findings concerning gender differences in stress and coping in children and adolescents show that girls in early and middle adolescence display a more favorable coping pattern in social relations than their male peers. Therefore, a focus on the gender-specific development of coping strategies is needed when tailoring programs in stress prevention. 3. Social influences in the context of health behavior change are studied in adults. Cross-sectional and longitudinal studies focus on risk perception, intention formation, and behavior adoption. 4. Aims of the network of school based health promotion are implementation and evaluation of health promoting activities along with the opportunity for networking and training possibilities for schools.
