 | | Well-being, control and ageing
| | Mastery is a major predictor for subjective well-being. As mastery declines with age, one should expect also a decline in well-being. When this is not the case, it might be explained by mastery becoming less important for well-being with increasing age, and a move over to more passive coping styles. The hypothesis is, however, not supported by the present findings from the Norwegian Life-Course, Ageing and Generation Study (NorLAG). | | 10.10.2007 | | [more] |

 | | Sexual abuse among adolescents
| | A new NOVA report publishes results from a unique study of adolescent´s sexuality in the Baltic Sea Region and Norway. The data show that 16 percent of the 18 year old boys and 4 percent of the girls had been sexually abusive towards others. Generally, girls were more often victims of sexual abuse than boys. | | 27.09.2007 | | [more] |
