Key investigations include social norm influences on hand sanitizer use in hospitals, probability discounting in IT projects, and prosocial behavior patterns in Norwegian 'dugnad' traditions. Her work bridges academic theory with practical organizational implementation through pracademic approaches. Analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals strong thematic continuity in behavioral interventions, with increasing focus on digital decision environments (2023-2025) and executive education design (2024). The research demonstrates methodological diversity across field experiments, systematic reviews, and theoretical frameworks, consistently applying behavioral science to organizational challenges in healthcare, fundraising, and professional development contexts. Mobekk actively disseminates findings through academic publications, research reports, and professional seminars including Fundraisingkonferansen, NITO events, and Prosperastiftelsen breakfast seminars. Her 2021 doctoral thesis 'Influencing choice behavior and improving well-being by applying behavior analysis and behavioral economics' represents a significant foundational contribution to the field. Current work shows expanding application domains from healthcare settings (2018-2020) toward broader organizational contexts including executive education, fundraising psychology, and digital decision-making. Recent projects emphasize emotional communication in growth contexts and practical implementation challenges in continuing education design.

Ragnhild Fugletveit serves as Associate Professor at Oslo Metropolitan University's Faculty of Social Sciences within the Department of Social Work, Child Welfare and Social Policy. Her research focuses on critical examinations of digital welfare systems, substance abuse treatment in child welfare contexts, and work inclusion strategies for vulnerable populations. Her research interests center on digital welfare systems and their impact on citizen-state interactions, particularly examining power dynamics in Norway's NAV (Labour and Welfare Administration). She investigates how digitalization creates new forms of exclusion while analyzing resistance strategies employed by users. Her work on substance abuse in child welfare explores institutional responses to drug addiction among youth, including controversial practices like single-child placements. Additionally, she studies work inclusion as a recovery strategy for individuals with substance abuse and mental health challenges, emphasizing meaningful activity in rehabilitation processes. Analysis of her recent publications reveals a clear trajectory toward critical digital welfare studies, with increasing focus on assemblage theory applications to understand complex welfare state transformations. Her work consistently bridges theoretical frameworks with practical case studies from Norwegian institutions, highlighting tensions between policy intentions and on-the-ground implementation. Her research portfolio includes significant projects on substance abuse mapping in Oslo's child welfare department and investigations into specialized institutions for youth with drug addiction. She actively contributes to understanding digital resistance practices and develops alternative frameworks for welfare service delivery that prioritize human agency over system efficiency.
