(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-05)Long-term management of more than one language has been argued to contribute to changes in brain and cognition. This has been particularly well documented in older age, where bilingualism has been linked to protective effects against neurocognitive decline. Since memory difficulties are key aspects of this decline, herein we examine potential effects of bilingualism on the hippocampus, a brain ... -

Riding the (brain) waves! Using neural oscillations to inform bilingualism research
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-04)The study of the brains’ oscillatory activity has been a standard technique to gain insights into human neurocognition for a relatively long time. However, as a complementary analysis to ERPs, only very recently has it been utilized to study bilingualism and its neural underpinnings. Here, we provide a theoretical and methodological starter for scientists in the (psycho) linguistics and neurocognition ... -

Sofie Charlotte av Preussen og kvinners handlingsrom i filosofien
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-16)Hvilket handlingsrom har kvinner hatt i filosofien? I artikkelen benytter jeg Sofie Charlotte av Preussen som eksempel for å drøfte dette spørsmålet. Kvinner har tradisjonelt ikke hatt samme forutsetninger som menn til å skrive filosofi og publisere verk. Likevel har flere av dem spilt viktige roller som samtalepartnere og korrespondenter for kanoniserte mannlige filosofer, roller de i heller liten ... -
