Research
- I am mainly working with the International Study of Movement Behaviors in the
Early Years (SUNRISE [1]), aiming to investigate physical activity, sedentary
behavior (screen time) and sleep for children aged 3-5 years all over the
world. Data collection for SUNRISE Sweden is currently ongoing in Stockholm
and Linköping, where we assess movement behaviors (accelerometer and
questionnaire), anthropometrics, motor skills, cognitive skills,
cardiometabolic factors and fitness for children in Swedish preschools.
