A scoping review of digital and non-digital interventions. Frontiers in Education. 11. doi: 10.3389/feduc.2026.1862436. Full text in Research Archive Show summary

  Introduction: School refusal poses significant challenges to children's education and wellbeing. Despite increased public, political and scholarly attention, there remains limited systematic knowledge about available interventions, in particular digital interventions. This scoping review therefore aims to identify and describe the range and nature of treatment interventions for school refusal, with a specific focus on digital approaches. Methods: A scoping review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Eligible studies were empirical, peer-reviewed articles published in 1993 or later that examined interventions for school refusal among children and adolescents. Screening and data extraction were completed independently in pairs. The data was analyzed descriptively, utilizing an adapted TIDieR framework applied to intervention reporting. Results: Thirty-one studies published between 1998 and 2025 met the inclusion criteria. Research activity increased notably from 2018 onward and was dominated by quantitative designs conducted primarily in Western, high-income contexts. Most interventions were cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)-based, delivered individually, in groups, or as multimodal programs, sometimes combined with pharmacological treatment. CBT interventions generally reported improved school attendance, although effect sizes and durability varied. Only six studies (19%) incorporated digital components, including remote therapeutic delivery, virtual reality exposure, serious games, and online parent coaching. These interventions were feasible and acceptable but showed limited evidence of direct effects on school attendance. Outcome measures were heterogeneous, though school attendance and anxiety symptoms were most consistently reported. Conclusion: The evidence-base on interventions for school refusal is growing but remains fragmented, with an underrepresentation of digital approaches. Existing digital interventions predominantly target the individual or family rather than school environments or the interaction between the individual, their family and the school environment. Future research should explore how digital tools can support integrated and systemic school-refusal approaches that address individual, family and school-related factors over time.

  Background: Artificial intelligence-based decision support systems have been suggested as possible aids for decision makers in emergency care. To balance patient safety, cost, efficiency, and professional integrity, we need to understand the views and arguments health professionals have for and against the implementation of such systems. The current study aimed to explore emergency primary care personnel’s perspectives on artificial intelligence-based decision support systems in emergencies in the municipality. Method: This study used a qualitative design with online, semistructured interviews with 12 primary emergency health care personnel. A purposive sampling strategy was used, and participants were recruited either from EPC center or municipal healthcare institutions receiving services from the EPCRU. The data were analyzed following thematic analysis. Results: Four main themes were identified, namely, “Human need, clinical evaluations,” “Balancing skepticism and confidence,” “Digital sparring partner and alternative hypotheses,” and “Health personnel’s role in procurement and development.” The participants emphasized a need for human and clinical assessments to detect illness and initiate appropriate actions. Aspects of skepticism and confidence were also discussed. However, they perceived that AI-based decision support systems could be ideal digital sparring partners. Moreover, all the participants underlined the importance of involving intended users when developing and implementing decision support systems. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the essential role of health personnel in decision-making processes in emergency primary care, as well as in the implementation processes of AI in these services. AI is suggested as a supportive tool that provides safe and trustworthy solutions. These aspects are useful for managers and other decision makers in the transformation of health services for the future.

  Background and Aims: Symptoms of anxiety and depression are common in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); the aim of this study was to assess the proportion of anxiety and depression in patients newly diagnosed with IBD, compare the rates with the Norwegian general population (NGP), and examine associations with selected sociodemographic, psychological, and disease-related factors. Methods: This prospective cohort study included newly diagnosed patients with IBD, and data from the HUNT4 survey of the NGP. Anxiety and depression were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Crude statistical comparisons were performed using t-tests, Mann–Whitney U test, chi-square tests, or Fisher’s exact tests. Adjusted associations were modeled using multiple robust linear regression and multiple logistic regression. Results: In total, 938/1562 (62.1%) patients with IBD completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (Crohn’s disease [CD]: n = 297, ulcerative colitis [UC]: n = 641). The proportion of anxiety was 37.4% in CD and 32.1% in UC, while depression was reported by 21.9% and 16.8%, respectively. Both rates were significantly higher than those observed in the NGP (17.5% for anxiety and 9.4% for depression). Compared with the NGP, males with CD had significantly higher levels of anxiety and depression, males with UC had elevated anxiety only, while females with CD and UC showed increased anxiety and depression. Both substantial fatigue and general self-efficacy were significantly associated with anxiety and depression in IBD. Conclusions: Newly diagnosed patients with IBD experienced significant psychological challenges compared with the NGP. Early identification of anxiety and depression may enable targeted interventions.

  Purpose: This study takes a unique approach by delving into the subjective experiences of individuals with dementia who engage in dementia choirs. We aim to explore how individuals with dementia perceive and experience participation in a dementia choir. Methodology: A qualitative approach was employed, using semi-structured interviews with dementia choir participants to gather insights into their experiences and perceptions. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify key themes. Results: The study revealed four key themes: the significance of a secure environment, the influence of prior musical experience, the positive impact of choir participation, and the choir as a community for social interaction and self-development. Participants reported feeling safer, more joyful, and socially connected, with choir activities providing a sense of purpose and belonging. Conclusion: The study concludes that participation in dementia choirs positively impacts emotional well-being and social inclusion. These findings strongly suggest that choirs could be valuable to dementia care, offering non-pharmacological benefits that promote meaningful engagement. Keywords: Dementia, dementia choir, quality of life, social engagement, music therapy.

  Background/Objectives: Workplace violence in the healthcare sector is a growing global concern. Defined as incidents where staff are abused, threatened, or assaulted in work-related contexts, this issue affects over half of healthcare personnel worldwide, with nurses being particularly vulnerable. The consequences are far-reaching, leading to diminished service quality, workforce turnover, reduced healthcare access, and increased costs. Despite its physical and psychological impact, workplace violence remains underreported, especially in its psychological forms, which have historically been underestimated. Methods: This study applies Per Isdal’s typology of violence to analyze incident reports from a hospital setting. By doing so, it offers a structured framework for understanding the multifaceted nature of workplace violence. By categorizing and examining how different forms of violence co-occur and manifest in daily professional interactions, the study aims to contribute to more systematic documentation and theoretical understanding of the field. Results: In total, 247 incidents were analyzed. Physical violence was the most frequently reported type with 167 incidents, followed by psychological violence with 125 cases. Material violence accounted for 28 reports, sexual violence for 10, and latent violence for 4, indicating that physical and psychological aggression dominates the spectrum of workplace violence in this context. Conclusions: The prevalence and complexity of violent incidents targeting healthcare personnel highlight the pressing need for actionable policies and evidence-based interventions that prioritize staff safety and psychological well-being. Establishing clear definitions of violence, alongside fostering a culture of reporting, is essential to create safer and more resilient healthcare environments.

Remotely Monitored Patients' Experiences of the Interpersonal Patient–Nurse Relationship: A Scoping Review. Scandinavian Journal of Caring Sciences. ISSN 0283-9318. 39(4). doi: 10.1111/scs.70166. Full text in Research Archive Show summary

  ABSTRACT Objective To explore what has been published in peer‐reviewed journals on patients' experiences of the interpersonal relationship between the patient and the nurse when the patient's health data are remotely monitored in an out‐of‐clinic setting. Introduction Interpersonal relationships are considered a cornerstone in person‐centred care and nursing. These relationships can be influenced by context and environment. Remote patient monitoring is increasing within healthcare, with the potential to impact on the relationship between the patient and the nurse. So far, there has been limited knowledge on a general basis of how remotely monitored patients experience this relationship. Inclusion Criteria Original peer‐reviewed studies in English, published year 2014–2024. Patients 18 years and over in an out‐of‐clinic setting, having their health data collected through remote patient monitoring by nurses exclusively or as part of a multiprofessional team. Patients' experiences/attitudes/perspectives/perceptions of the patient–nurse relationship. Methods The research method was based on the Joanna Briggs Institute's method for scoping reviews and the PRISMA checklist for scoping reviews was used when reporting the review. In total, four databases were used in the literature search. Thematic analysis was used for analysing the results. Results Out of 9001 articles, 31 studies were included in the review. Thematic analysis resulted in three clusters covering relational aspects and emotional responses of the patient–nurse relationship during remote monitoring. These clusters were Relational aspects of patient – nurse communication and interaction , Emotional aspects of the patient – nurse relationship and Patient participation . Conclusions Remote patient monitoring is primarily a human‐to‐human activity. In general, but not solely, patients perceive positive relational experiences with nurses during remote monitoring. Remote patient monitoring can and should be delivered with a person‐centred and ethically aware approach. Thus, the acts and efforts of the monitoring nurse play a central role in providing a positive relationship‐based experience during remote patient monitoring.

  Aim To explore how the expression of positive emotions during the interaction between patients and providers can cultivate the patient-provider relationship. Design We conducted a realist review guided by the Realist and Meta-narrative Evidence Syntheses: Evolving Standards. Methods We systematically searched CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsychINFO and Scopus from inception to March 2019. Study selection and data extraction were performed blinded in pairs. From 3146 abstracts blinded in pairs, 15 papers were included and analysed. From each included paper, we extracted contexts, mechanisms and outcomes that were relevant to answer our research questions, creating a configuration between these elements (CMO configuration). Results Our findings suggest that in the contexts of person orientation and positive outlook, patient-provider relationships improve by communication conveying and eliciting positive emotions. We found six underlying mechanisms for this that form either direct or indirect pathways between the context and the outcome.

  Patients with inflammatory bowel disease report multiple symptoms, but the relationships among co-occurring symptoms are poorly understood. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of symptoms and explore symptom clusters and possible associations between symptom clusters and socio-demographic and clinical variables in patients newly diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease. Methods The IBSEN III study is a prospective population-based inception cohort of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. This study used patient data from the three largest hospitals in the study catchment area. The Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale was used to assess the prevalence of symptoms. Symptom clusters were identified using principal component analysis. Possible associations between socio-demographic and clinical variables and symptom cluster membership were estimated using regression analysis. Results Of the 573 patients (age, ≥18 years) diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease, 350 (61.1%) completed the questionnaire (responders). Eleven symptoms were reported by >50% of the responders. The three most prevalent symptoms were bloating (84%), drowsiness (81%), and lack of energy (81%). Three symptom clusters were identified: psychological (56% of the patients), impaired energy (28%), and physical (16%) clusters. Multinomial regression analysis revealed that vitamin D deficiency was significantly associated with the impaired energy cluster (odds ratio=2.49, 95% confidence interval [1.00-6.2], p=0.05). Conclusions We found high symptom prevalence in patients newly diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease. Three distinct symptom clusters were identified, and the psychological cluster includes >50% of the patients. Vitamin D deficiency is the only factor associated with cluster membership, namely the impaired energy cluster.

  Purpose: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is currently the most prevalent childhood psychiatric diagnosis. This article reports how 10 young adults in Norway posi-tioned themselves before they were diagnosed with ADHD either during early childhood or adolescence. A central theme is how these subject-positions relate to societal norms and mental well-being.Method: Individual interviews were conducted, and the transcriptions of the interviews were analysed according to discourse theory.Result: Six central subject positions were identified which in turn related to two major positions: 1) failure with schoolwork and 2) struggle in social interaction. The findings indicated specific emotional and environmental needs and that individuals were confronted with societal norms related to the criteria for ADHD prior to and regardless of whether one had received a formal diagnosis.Conclusion: We argue that analysing subject positions provides important knowledge regarding ADHD that is useful for individuals, parents, teachers, practitioners, policymakers, and helping professionals in the field of mental health and education when it comes to interventions that support children who possess different temperaments

  There is a growing acceptance that ADHD is a multi-dimensional disorder in which not all symptoms are associated with deficits or functional impairments. This article contributes to research on the positive aspects of the diagnosis, specifically understanding the positive aspects of living with ADHD. The empirical data was based on individual interviews and self-narratives of 10 young adults with ADHD. Narrative analysis was implemented when investigating their stories. The findings showed that challenges with the diagnosis were not necessarily stably occupied, and for some, the diagnosis was thought of as a benefit and something they would not have been without. Four stories highlighted particularly the context of positive aspects: (1) insight and strategies, (2) targeted efforts, (3) balanced energy, and (4) social skills. These aspects were correlated to both the individual’s strengths as well as the strengths and support that could be related to their societal and cultural environment.

  In this review we aimed to identify and synthesize the existing qualitative research literature on women’s experiences of using wearable digital self-tracking health technology, and analytically explore the lived through and embodied aspects of self-tracking in the first-person accounts presented in this literature. Thirteen empirical studies conducted in Australia, USA, Canada, Denmark, Finland and Germany, and published within the time period 2014 to 2019, were identified through systematic searches in relevant databases, and analyzed using a method of interpretive metasynthesis. Our analysis suggests that women experienced gaining access to bodily information that was otherwise experienced as hidden through using a wearable device, and that experiencing feelings was integral to their self-tracking practices and experiences. We thus identified two core themes across the included studies: Embodying the knowing self and Embodying strong feelings. Our review contributes to the existing literature by outlining and describing an emerging body of research across different health related disciplines, and makes a theoretical contribution by highlighting the need to minimize emotional labor and to provide the opportunity for embodying agency in the context of the selftracking activities of patients and consumers. In addition we suggests methodological ways forward in producing detailed and nuanced knowledge about the practices and implications of women’s use of digital self-tracking health technology.

  Our choice to withhold or disclose displeasing information to another can motivate concern about damage to our social bonds. In two experiments, using two different samples of university students in Norway, (N = 174 and N = 217), we found that withholding unpleasant information led to greater concern for self- image and social-image than did disclosure. We also found that withholding elicited more shame, inferiority and rejection than disclosure, and in Experiment 2, withholding elicited more defensive motivation than disclosure. Consistent with our model, defensive motivation was mostly explained by concern for social-image, whereas relationship repair motivation was mostly explained by concern for self-image and felt shame. We discuss implications for the literature on shame and social bonds.

  The aim of the study was to investigate what functional difficulties young people who refuse to go to school experience in their everyday lives. Research questions where what difficulties do young people who refuse to go to school experience? Are there differences between boys and girls? The study is a retrospective journal study with 28 Swedish youngsters based on Strengths & Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Major findings where about somatic symptoms, emotional distress, loneliness, distinct gender roles, less mature and risk behavior. Although the school, social services and children- and adolescent psychiatry largely agree on the complexity of adolescents being absent from school, it seems difficult for the organizations to agree on adequate solutions.

  Background: Many employees in schools and kindergartens fail to report vague suspicions (e.g., inadequate clothing, signs of anxiety or lack of sleep, being verbally violent to peers) that children are victims of domestic violence because they are unsure whether their suspicions are well founded. Objective: We investigated the degree of emotional discomfort among school staff and student teachers when they had to 'tell ’ or ‘ not tell ’ about vague suspicions of domestic violence. We assumed that they would experience more emotional discomfort when they did not report such vague suspicions. Participants and setting: Seventy-one teachers and student teachers (20 men and 51 women; average age: 25, age range: 18 – 62) were recruited from three primary and lower secondary schools. Methods: We used an experimental design in this quantitative vignette study, and the particiants were asked to respond to 54 statements that were related to the need for acceptance by others, seriousness, appraisals (e.g. social self-image and self-image) and self-critical feelings (e.g. rejection, shame, and inferiority). Results: The results of the experimental study show that participants who did not tell about their vague suspicions of violence reported this as being more serious ( p < .05), had a more negative self-appraisal ( p < .05) and reported a higher degree of negative feelings ( p < .05). The study sheds light on the seriousness of ‘ not telling ’ about vague suspicions, and shows that ‘ not telling ’ is reported as being more emotionally uncomfortable than ‘ telling ’

  Denne rapporten er en kvalitativ studie av 33 informanters erfaringer med Kvalitetsreformens nye evalueringsformer i høyere utdanning (St meld 27 (2000-2001). Vårt hovedfokus med undersøkelsen har vært å finne frem til kunnskap som kan gi oss en forståelse av hvordan studenter forstår og vurderer fusk og plagiering i dagens høyere utdannelse og følgende problemstilling har vært utgangspunktet for vår analyse: Hvilke erfaringer har studenter med fusk og plagiering? Vårt mål med denne studien har ikke utelukkende vært rettet mot tradisjonelle former for fusk i forbindelse med eksamenssituasjoner. Vår interesse har snarere vært å belyse studentenes erfaringer av fusk og plagiering gjennom hele studiesituasjonen. Funn fra studien viser at studentene i liten grad kjenner til begrepene fusk og plagiering i deres nåværende studiesituasjon. Dette betyr at det er stor usikkerhet knyttet til begrepene og at man derfor kan anta flere studenter fusker og plagierer uten å nødvendigvis være klar over det. Vi ser en tydelig tendens til at studentene forholder seg til begrepet samarbeid på minst to ulike måter. Det er tydelig at flere studenter verdsetter læringsutbyttet som følger med samarbeid mer enn å ta hensyn til om det er en individuell oppgave, eller ikke. Vi ser også at studentene i frykt for å bli plagiert velger å ikke dele sine tanker om oppgaven de arbeider med og derfor unnlater å samarbeide. Videre ser det ut til at studentene ønsker en mer tydelig markering fra lærerne på hva som er tillat samarbeid, eller ikke. Flertallet av de samme studentene oppgir å ikke ha fått informasjon om eventuelle konsekvenser av å bli tatt i fusk eller plagiering. Studien viser også at omfanget av informasjon gitt om akademisk skriving, oppgaveskriving og referanseteknikk ved norske institusjoner for høyere utdanning ser ut til å være svært mangelfull. Vi etterlyser derfor et større fokus på denne problematikken, ikke nødvendigvis fordi vi tror at dagens studenter fusker og plagierer mer enn noen gang. Vi antar i stedet at vi trenger et økt fokus på denne problematikken fordi dette er holdninger som bør etableres som en del av dannelsesidealet for dagens studenter.
