• Default, time-pressured and incentivized deliberate reasoning 

  Abukar, Fozia Aweys (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-05-14)

  The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect time-pressure and incentives have on deliberate reasoning. A person’s tendency to engage in and enjoy processes that require reasoning, i.e., their need for cognition, and their algorithmic ability are factors that may moderate performance in reasoning tasks when they are under time-pressure or given monetary reward. Identifying how to increase ...
• Enhancing Prediction of Blast-Induced Ground Vibrations through Machine Learning 

  Jansrud, Guro (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2024-01-12)

  This Master’s thesis investigates the application of Machine Learning (ML) in predicting blast-induced ground vibrations in mining, with the aim of sur- passing the precision of the current industry-standard model that utilizes an empirical, regression-based method. The study applied a Deep Neural Network (DNN) model, selected for its capability to consider a broader range of variables than the ...

  Effect of ketosis on pain and quality of life in women with lipedema. 

  Sandnes, Frida Huhta (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-13)

  Background: Lipedema is an adipose tissue condition in females characterized by immobility, pain, and reduced quality of life (QoL). Recent publications indicate that ketogenic diets may induce symptom relief in women with lipedema. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of a low-energy ketogenic diet on pain and QoL in women with lipedema, compared to a low-energy non-ketogenic ...

  Process optimization of albumin-stabilized mitotane nanoparticle preparation by dual centrifugation and first lyophilization study 

  Zhang, Cindy Jia Ru (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-13)

  Albumin-stabilized mitotane nanoparticles intended for intravenous application can serve as a potential formulation for the treatment of adrenocortical carcinoma. However, the particle size of a nanoparticle-based formulation is crucial for the in vivo behavior of the nanoparticles following an intravenous injection. Prior to this project, the particle size of this nanoformulation had a mean of ...

  Mapping the Well-Being of Norwegian Mothers During the COVID-19 Pandemic 

  Kvalø, Marie (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-12)

  The COVID-19 pandemic has had negative effects on people’s well-being and quality of life. In order to extend existing research, we focused on Norwegian mothers with children in elementary schools, and investigated whether the pandemic influenced their well-being, stress, and worries. Our sample consisted of 231 mothers responding in the first data collection that took place June 2020, 97 mothers ...
