Forskning har visat att psykoterapi effektivt minskar interpersonella problem, men få studier har använt interpersonella problem som utfallsmått i en naturalistisk psykoterapikontext.

Internetkonsumtion med frakt utgör en konsumtionsform som har eskalerat i Sverige. Även om detta konsumtionsbeteende inte är miljövänligt är det samtidigt förankrat med kollaborativ konsumtion.
