Research interests
Astri’s research covers assessment and development of intervention programs targeting people with cognitive, emotional, and social challenges due to somatic and/or psychiatric conditions. From a focus on patients with neurological disorders, she moved on to a more general interest in cognitive aging, followed by engagement in interventions targeting frail older adults and adults with early symptoms indicating Alzheimer’s disease. Astri was a core member of the longitudinal Bergen Child Study during four waves of data collection, and is a member of a research group focusing on adults with ADHD. More recently, she has become involved in the develoment of interventions targeting emotion regulation in adults with ADHD; a project assessing emotion regulation across different neuropsychiatric disorders, and studies focusing on cognitive and emotional problems associated with the brain-gut disturbance characterizing patients with Irritable bowel syndrome
