Biography

Jannis Kraiss is an Assistant Professor at the University of Twente, specializing in research related to clinical mental health and field research methodologies. His primary focus is on understanding the dynamics of mental health that occur in daily life, particularly how individuals react to stressful events and the associated health resilience. He aims to personalize interventions based on information from approaches like positive psychology and compassion-focused techniques, specifically targeting mechanisms that can effectively enhance individual health resilience. Utilizing intensive longitudinal methods, including experience sampling, he seeks to capture a valid and nuanced picture of individual mental health dynamics in everyday situations. Kraiss employs advanced statistical techniques, such as dynamic structural equation modeling and network analyses, to explore these phenomena. He also examines the methodological aspects of intensive longitudinal methods, looking at differences between individual and within-person models, measuring constructs in daily life, and their implications on study design and conclusions drawn from intensive longitudinal studies. He possesses extensive experience in conducting systematic reviews, applying multilevel meta-analyses, and analyzing randomized controlled trial data.
