Research interests
In my multidisciplinary doctoral dissertation, I investigate correlates (e.g., personality characteristics and life transition factors), cumulation and stability of health behaviors during late adulthood transition. I am particularly interested in psychological correlates of physical activity. My research is based on data from the Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Personality and Social Development (PI Katja Kokko).
