- Research and the recently revised national guideline indicate that disinfection after cleaning rooms following the admission of people with a viral respiratory infection in healthcare facilities is not necessary. However, some Dutch healthcare facilities still perform disinfection. It remains unclear which de-implementation strategies can support the discontinuation of terminal disinfection in…

- Many young gamblers are not aware of their need for help and of the different care options. Therefore, raising such awareness is imperative.ObjectiveThe proposed project will develop and test communication campaigns that aim to enhance young people’s awareness of care and their needs for care, and address stigma. With these evidence-based campaigns and a theoretical model, we deliver concrete…

This follow-up study explores why, by examining whether personal factors (e.g., stress, loneliness, health) and social factors (e.g., support) affect the link between social media and authenticity differently for boys and girls…
