A study of the everyday behavior of social workers
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study of ordinary, everyday behavior is one in a series, using a special technique for reaching the subjects at any time, anywhere. The present study was performed on a group of social workers, working in different social welfare offices, who volunteered to participate for one week, without changing their everyday lifestyle. Compared with a control group, the social workers seemed quite aware and motivated by their actions, but under rather severe strain in their life as a whole. Whether this was due to a difficult working situation or can be explained in terms of different background factors is an intriguing question. It is tentatively concluded that the working situation was the most likely explanation.

- The present study of the everyday behavior of alcohol misusers is part of a series of studies using a special technique for conveniently reaching the participants at any time, anywhere in order to sample their everyday behavior. One purpose of the study was to help a group of heavy drinkers to reduce or cease drinking. Another purpose was to study how alcohol misusers differ from matched nondrinking people and to obtain a psychological profile of them before and during their attempts to control their drinking. The belief was that an experimental design with a moral contract and electronic surveillance would facilitate drinkers' attempts to control their alcohol consumption. The results in terms of reduced and terminated drinking were very satisfactory, and the method of random action sampling made detailed and explorative analyses possible.

The effect of electronic surveillance on nicotine misuse and everyday behavior
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The present study of the everyday behavior of nicotine misusers, belongs to a series of studies using a special technique for conveniently reaching the subjects at any time, anywhere and to sample their everyday behavior. One purpose of the study was to help a group of habitual smokers to quit smoking. Another purpose was to study how nicotine misusers differ from matched non-smoking people, and to obtain a psychological profile of them before and during their attempts to quit. The belief was that an experimental design with a moral contract and electronic surveillance would facilitate the smokers' attempts to quit. The results in terms of terminated and reduced smoking were very satisfactory and the method of random action sampling made detailed descriptive and explorative analyses possible.

A study of the everyday behavior of problem drinkers
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study of everyday behavior utilized a technique for reaching the subjects at any time and anywhere, asking them to report their ongoing behavior and current mood state at randomly selected points in time. The study was performed on a group of problem drinkers who volunteered to participate for one week, without changing their everyday lifestyle. Compared with a control group, the problem drinkers consumed a good deal more alcohol on considerably more occasions, resulting in deteriorated actions, a withdrawal tendency and a bad conscience. A comparison between actions performed when drinking, and otherwise, showed that drinking made the subjects feel good, but at the same time made it more difficult and less attractive to carry out what they were doing. When sober, there were no differences between problem drinkers and the controls.
