Magnus Wiberg

Lecturer, Head of Unit

I am the unit manager and director of studies for the social work program, responsible for the first five semesters’ courses. I am also a doctoral student working on a thesis about online gaming habits among
young adults with disabilities.

Young people’s gaming habits

My licentiate thesis is connected to a research project concerning
online gaming and young people with disabilities within the framework of
LSS.

The purpose of the project was to explore these young people’s gaming habits and whether their gaming habits affect their sense of coherence and social inclusion.
