Kristine M. Bratland


Job description

Kristine's project focuses on identifying where young adults (18+) find health information online and how they incorporate it into their daily lives. She is particularly interested in understanding the specific informational needs expressed by young adults in their digital interactions.

Kristine is a Doctoral Research Fellow in Health Communication on the project Healthy Choices and the social gradient, and WP5: Healthy choices and novel science communication. The object of the study is to map young adults` online health information behavior (OHISB) and their needs regarding targeted communication. The findings aim to contribute to reducing the disparity in the social gradient by facilitating informed choices.
