Welcome to the website of CBS Well-being Lab. We work with stress prevention and well-being for students. The aim is to explore the reasons behind the increasing number of students that experience severe stress, anxiety, and lack of well-being.
Our view on stress
_____________________
We believe that stress cannot be reduced to the responsibility of the individual, as stress has a common cause in the (study) culture – it is a relational phenomenon. Tackling stress therefore needs to take place in the collective field and requires a community effort.
About this site
_____________________
This site is for students, researchers and staff at CBS concerned with the topic of stress and well-being, for external partners of the project, and for everyone interested in a new take on stress.
The research project “Stress prevention and well-being among students at CBS” is running in a three-year period and looks deeper into how and under what conditions CBS as a university can work with well-being.
The project is a crosscutting thematic strategic initiative. Its main aim is to understand issues concerning stress among students at CBS and to develop new measures and tools for students, teachers, and administrative staff at CBS, to work with well-being for the students.
The project provides a novel approach to working with wellbeing among students, which supports the Nordic Nine principles by a) approaching stress-prevention and well-being as complex and relational phenomena; b) gaining knowledge as a basis for developing measures to help strengthen emotional capabilities and resilience of students and provide opportunities for self-reflection with a particular focus on how students can support and strengthen each other.
