do resolution changes effectively average data ?

GRASS resamples based on the value of the center cell. If there is no center
cell (as in your example), it would take the value of the upper-left cell
out of the center four, *not* the upper-left cell of the 10 x 10 block.

How about when importing? If I have a DEM with 30m res. and import it into a 100m
res. region, what is the methode GRASS uses to derive the value of the 100m cell?
