academic

Ragný Þóra Guðjohnsen is an associate professor in pedagogy and educational studies at the University of Iceland. She has a professional role in overseeing the Icelandic Youth Research, which focuses on understanding youth behavior, including substance use. Recent discussions led by her have highlighted concerns about the accuracy of youth substance use statistics, suggesting that certain groups of children may not respond to surveys conducted during school hours. Ragný has noted that while there is anecdotal evidence of increased substance use among youth, recent research findings did not indicate this trend, prompting a need for further investigation into the complexities of youth behavior and the factors influencing survey results.
