Lukas Tribelhorn has been an assistant/doctoral student at the Divison of Media Use & Effects of the Department of Communication and Media Research (IKMZ) at the University of Zurich since February 2022. In his dissertation, he is researching the influence of the use of social media on the perception of social reality and social norms of adolescents, and the associated effects on their health behaviour. To investigate these effects, the methodological focus lies on longitudinal analyses, and data is collected through surveys, or innovative methods such as data donation or usage tracking. As part of theExcellence Programme of the Digital Society Initiative (DSI) and as recipient of a DSI Scholarship, he also participates in interdisciplinary discourses on the digital transformation of society and acquires a wide range of interdisciplinary skills as part of the DSI curriculum.
