Weak rTMS-induced electric fields produce neural entrainment in humans
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-20)Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a potent tool for modulating endogenous oscillations in humans. The current standard method for rTMS defines the stimulation intensity based on the evoked liminal response in the visual or motor system (e.g., resting motor threshold). The key limitation of the current approach is that the magnitude of the resulting electric field remains elusive. ... -

What are we optimizing for in autism screening? Examination of algorithmic changes in the M‐CHAT
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-26)The present study objectives were to examine the performance of the new M-CHAT-R algorithm to the original M-CHAT algorithm. The main purpose was to examine if the algorithmic changes increase identification of children later diagnosed with ASD, and to examine if there is a trade-off when changing algorithms. We included 54,463 screened cases from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study. ... -
What do I want to be? Predictors of communal occupational aspirations in early to middle childhood
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-07)Research investigating occupational aspirations in childhood is scarce. In addition, most research on occupational aspirations has focused on increasing the number of women in agentic jobs. In the present work, we investigate factors associated with communal occupational aspirations in two studies with young children (Study 1: 159 children [84 boys, 75 girls], Mage = 5.51 years, SD = 0.37; Study 2: ... -
What if becoming information literate were an adventure?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-17)What if becoming information literate were an adventure? This question was posed in a keynote for the Creating Knowledge Conference 2021. It was answered in a thought piece by examining adventure-based ways to prepare students to be information literate adults through the principles and mechanisms that people find arousing and pleasurable and that are not classically a part of university pedagogy. ... -

Data on LS were collected at T1 (6 months postpartum) and T3 (36 months postpartum), and data on life stressors at T2 (18 months postpartum) and T3. Altogether, 24,216 ... -
Where is the Child in Family Therapy Service After Family Violence? A Study from the Norwegian Family Protection Service
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-01-21)Extensive documentation on consequences of family violence laid the ground for a politically decided mandate for the Norwegian Family Protection Service (FPS) to prioritize families with children and violence. This study explores the practice of one of the country’s larger FPS offices following this mandate and its kick-off start. Data from all cases in 1 year with families with children and violence ... -
‘Where to ski?’: an ethnography of how guides make sense while planning
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-10)A ski guide’s job is to take recreational skiers into avalanche terrain. In this paper, we explore how ski guides make sense of complex social and ecological contexts while planning. Our data arises out of a one-year participant ethnography of ski guiding in Norway, and shows that guides work towards becoming socio-ecologically embedded by making sense of who the clients and what the mountain ... -
White matter correlates of gait perturbations resulting from spontaneous and lateralized attention in healthy older adults: A dual-task study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-18)To date the neural mechanisms behind gait perturbations caused by dual-task paradigms are still unknown. Therefore, the present study examined white matter correlates of gait perturbations caused by a dichotic listening task where spontaneous (free focus of attention) and lateralized attentional control (voluntary attention directed to right or left-ear) were tested. Fifty-nine right-handed, healthy ... -
Who cares? Effects of gendered self-perceptions on dropout intentions in communal degree programs
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-12)Global population aging trends create an increased need for educated workers in the health domain. At the same time, communal degree programs (i.e., health care and early education [HEE]) show high dropout rates—particularly for men. Extending person-environment fit theory and the lack of fit model, we investigate whether students' (gendered) self-perceptions relate to perceived fit and whether fit ... -
Why the belief in one’s equal rights matters: Self-respect, depressive symptoms, and suicidal ideation in Western and non-Western countries
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-21)The present research investigated the relationship between self-respect (i.e., a person’s belief of possessing the same rights as others) and depressive symptoms. Based on earlier longitudinal findings that self-respect fosters assertiveness and that assertiveness negatively predicts depressive symptoms, we tested these relationships in Western and non-Western countries. Additionally, we explored ... -
Winter is coming: Wintertime mindset and wellbeing in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-30)Previous research of the effect of winter on wellbeing has yielded contradictory findings. While there is evidence that the lack of sunlight in wintertime can lead to seasonal depression and negative emotions, many individuals are able to thrive during the winter. What might determine whether the darkness of winter leads to poor psychological outcomes? To investigate whether or not mindset contributes ... -
Women with coronary heart disease – making sense of their symptoms and their experiences from interacting with their general practitioners
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-01)Cardiovascular disease and particularly coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death among women and men worldwide. CHD in women, and their symptoms and treatment trajectory are not well understood. Studies indicate gender-related differences in symptom presentation, comorbidity, help-seeking behavior, and the quality of diagnostics and treatment of CHD. Although the incidence ... -
Working for the Best or Bracing for the Worst? Approach and Avoidance Motivation in Planning
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-11)Even though planning is generally helpful in goal pursuit, people do not always choose to plan. The inclination to plan might depend on whether we focus on what we seek to approach or what we seek to avoid. In two pre-registered experiments, we tested the relative effect of approach versus avoidance motivation on willingness to plan (total <i>N</i>=1349). With outcome framing as the experimental ...
