Pilot studies
The WP covers: general functionality and health status; physical, mental, social activities; mental health / psychological intervention; sleep; and bottom-up development of “Pårørendebanken” (see separate chapter). PhD candidate Lisa Aaslestad started in September 2024 in this WP with her PhD project “Digital Interventions for Sleep and Physical Activity in Older Adults with Complex Conditions." Alongside her main supervisor, Assoc. Professor Line Iden Berge and her co-supervisors, she will focus on assessing the feasibility of digital psychological and physical interventions to enhance sleep quantity and quality. She will perform a feasibility study of digital sensors to supplement self-reported data for quantifying the activity levels and sleep metrics in older adults.
