PhD student Caroline Eklund, Associate professor Magnus L Elfström, Professor Yvonne Eriksson (study I, II and III) and Professor Anne Söderlund (main supervisor)
This project was conducted as a PhD project with the main aim to develop and evaluate an evidence-based web-application supporting behaviour change for persons experiencing work related stress. The project was divided in four sub-studies. The first study was a development study, where evidence within several fields was considered with focus on behaviour change, stress management and informational design. The program was built on a solid theoretical framework, tailored to each unique user and contained interactive assignments. The second and the third study were the first evaluations of the program named My Stress Control (MSC). The second study was a feasibility study with a mixed method design and the third study was an interview study analysed with qualitative content analysis. The findings in the studies supported further development of the program. The fourth study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial with the primary outcome perceived stress.
