The project aims to develop action and process recommendations to empower higher education institutions (e.g. universities) to independently and autonomously conduct circumstance-oriented student surveys for the health improvement of study conditions. The goal is to derive data-driven structural measures and fulfill the legal obligation for Psychological Hazard Assessment (GBPsych) at study locations. The following research questions will be addressed:
The joint project is divided into three subprojects, comprising a total of four work packages (AP). Subproject 1 aims to provide qualitative data for deriving action recommendations. In AP 1 of this subproject, challenges/success-critical factors are identified through qualitative interviews with key individuals at higher education institutions, and these are addressed in solution-focused workshops in AP 2. Subproject 2 includes the quantitative study phase, where further statistical analyses of the dataset generated in the predecessor project "StudiBiFra" are conducted in AP 3. These analyses primarily focus on identifying areas for prevention and relevant target groups. In Subproject 3, the results from subprojects 1 and 2 are consolidated. The AP 4 located there involves synthesizing the generated qualitative and quantitative data to develop action and process recommendations ("roadmap").
