  Bias and Discrimination in Clinical Decision Support Systems Based on Artificial Intelligence 

  Hauglid, Mathias Karlsen (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2024-04-26)

  One of the most promising utilisations of Artificial Intelligence in healthcare is Clinical Decision Support (AI-CDS) systems: AI systems that support clinical assessments and decision-making by producing relevant classifications and predictions that may be relied on by clinicians and patients. However, an oft-cited concern is that AI systems can be ‘biased’ – a nebulous term often used to describe ...

  Is the diet cyclic phase-dependent in boreal vole populations? 

  Ims, Rolf Anker; Kamenova, Stefaniya Kamenova; Devineau, Olivier; Soininen, Eeva Marjatta; neby, Magne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-17)

  Herbivorous rodents in boreal, alpine and arctic ecosystems are renowned for their multi-annual population cycles. Researchers have hypothesised that these cycles may result from herbivore–plant interactions in various ways. For instance, if the biomass of preferred food plants is reduced after a peak phase of a cycle, rodent diets can be expected to become dominated by less preferred food plants, ...

  Literacy overrides effects of animacy: A picture-naming study with pre-literate German children and adult speakers of German and Arabic 

  Dolscheid, Sarah; Schlenter, Judith; Penke, Martina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-17)

  Animacy plays a key role for human cognition, which is also reflected in the way humans process language. However, while experiments on sentence processing show reliable effects of animacy on word order and grammatical function assignment, effects of animacy on conjoined noun phrases (e.g., fish and shoe vs. shoe and fish) have yielded inconsistent results. In the present study, we tested the ...

  Associations Between Learning Environment and Study Satisfaction Across Time: Two Cross-Sectional Analyses of Occupational Therapy Students 

  Mørk, Gry; Johnson, Susanne Grødem; Gramstad, Astrid; Stigen, Linda; Carstensen, Tove; Bonsaksen, Tore (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04)

  There is increasing attention toward students’ satisfaction and how they perceive the quality of the program they attend. This study examined stability and change across time with regard to the relationships between learning environment factors and occupational therapy students’ satisfaction with the program. In the two consecutive cross-sectional analyses performed in this study, 163 second-year ...

  Consequentialism and Its Demands: The Role of Institutions 

  Tanyi, Attila Geza; Miklos, Andras (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-17)

  Consequentialism is often criticized as being overly demanding, and this overdemandingness is seen as sufficient to reject it as a moral theory. This paper takes the plausibility and coherence of this objection—the Demandingness Objection—as a given. Our question, therefore, is how to respond to the Objection. We put forward a response relying on the framework of institutional consequentialism we ...
