In collaboration with the Department of Biology at SDU and several international partners, Profs Nikos Ntoumanis and Cecilie Thøgersen-Ntoumani will use behavioural sciences approaches to understand and promote such solutions within relevant citizen groups and policy makers.

Details about Fit First for All


DRIVEN has been awarded in late 2022 two projects that examine the use of performance enhancing drugs in sport.

The first project, funded by the Partnership for Clean Competition, will review the psychological literature regarding the influential predictors of doping intentions/willingness and doping use in sport and other physical activity domains.

The second project, awarded by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), will develop an assessment tool to help national anti-doping agencies to evaluate the effectiveness of their anti-doping education.
