About Kristina Holmqvist Gattario
PhD in Psychology since 2013, Associate Professor since 2018.
My main research interests are in the areas of health psychology and developmental psychology and concern young people's health and well-being, body image, and experiences of bullying and sexual harassment.
I am a member of the Gothenburg group for Research in Developmental psychology (GRID), and part of the editorial board of the international journal Body Image.
I teach both basic and advances level courses, primarily within health psychology and psychological research methods.
