Episode 13: Lisa Voois on Health-related Expectations and Behaviors

In this episode, we are chatting to Lisa Voois about her PhD thesis on health-related expectations and behaviours. We are also joined for the first time by our new co-host, Andrea! We first talk about her single authored paper "When the sun goes down: Effects of sunset time on adolescent sleep, mental health and education". We then discuss research of beliefs and expectations more generally. In her thesis, Lisa analysed the accuracy of long-term care risk perceptions and retirement expectations.     Guest: Lisa Voois (Assistant Professor at the Erasmus School of Health Policy and Management.)
