Silje Steinsbekk

About

I am a professor in clinical child- and adolescent psychology, and co-PI of the Trondheim Early Secure Study (TESS). TESS started in 2007 and comprises a sample of 1,250 children drawn from the 2003 and 2004 birth cohorts and their parents in Trondheim, Norway. In depth data (interviews, questionnaires, tests, and observations) has been collected every second year since the children were 4 years old,- from participants, parents and teachers. The nineth datawave is ongoing, the participants now being 20 years old.

The goal of the study is to determine the prevalence and course of common mental health problems, and to detail potential etiological factors. The TESS also aims to describe children’s typical development as well as determinants and outcomes of individual differences in different aspects of development, such as social and emotional competence, self-esteem, personality, self-regulation, sexuality, cognition, physical activity, eating, sleep, internet gaming and social media use.

My main research areas are development of health behavior (eating, physical activity, sleep), overweight, mental health and social media use. I am currently PI of two large projects funded by the Research Council of Norway, one aiming to identify predictors of health behaviors from childhood to young adulthood, the other aiming to examine the impact of social media use on youth's development and mental health.
