    • Risikofaktorer for, og beskyttelsesfaktorer mot sekundærtraumatisk stress, vikarierende traumatisering og compassion fatigue blant ansatte i psykisk helsesektor: En systematisk litteraturgjennomgang 

      Dahlberg, Hanne M.; Grindahl, Ida (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2020-04-27)
      Sekundærtraumatisk stress (STS), vikarierende traumatisering (VT) og compassion fatigue (CF) er termer som brukes for å beskrive negative, psykologiske reaksjoner som kan forekomme etter indirekte eksponering for traumatiske opplevelser. Helsepersonell som jobber med traumeutsatte kan antas å være i særskilt risiko for selv å utvikle traumesymptomer, da de i stor grad eksponeres for andres traumatiske ...

      This study looks at how emotions were associated with ski jumping competitions in world cup for four athletes representing the Norwegian national team in Nordic combined. The athletes documented their emotional experiences during competition rounds (trial-, and competition rounds) and non-competitive episodes (the period just after the competition round). The results in this study show that there ...
    • The Role of Estrogen Receptor β (ERβ) in the Establishment of Hierarchical Social Relationships in Male Mice 

      Nakata, Mariko; Ågmo, Anders j; Satoshi, Shoko; Ogawa, Sonoko (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-22)
      Acquisition of social dominance is important for social species including mice, for preferential access to foods and mates. Male mice establish social rank through agonistic behaviors, which are regulated by gonadal steroid hormone, testosterone, as its original form and aromatized form. It is well known that estrogen receptors (ERs), particularly ER α (ERα), mediate effects of aromatized testosterone, ...
    • The Role of Eye-Movements in the Representation of Value in a Reinforcement Learning Context: A Web-Based Study 

      Stensland, Pål Ovanger (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-02-15)
      The present thesis experimentally set out to try to answer if there was a correlation between reinforcement learning and eye-movements and what the implications of such a correlation might be. An important experimental factor here was the decision to do this online, to see if it was possible to get valid and reliable results, and furthermore perhaps reach out to a more diverse group of people than ...

The present investigation aimed to evaluate the role of moderating variables, such as age, sex, MMSE, and proxies of cognitive reserve (CR) on the hemodynamic response evoked ...
    • The Role of Need for Cognition in the Association Between Work Demands and Home Outcomes 

      Rødfjell, Lenita Benedicte (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-04-28)
      Kjærlighetsrelasjoner er en viktig del av våres liv og forskning viser til at kontekstuelle utfordringer (f.eks., arbeidsmengde), kan negativt påvirke slike relasjoner–et eksempel på jobb–til–liv konflikt. Arbeidet man utfører blir stadig mer komplekst og ansatte må utføre oppgaver som er både ukjente og utfordrende. Selv om slik kvalitativ arbeidsmengde er utbredt blant ansatte, vet vi lite om ...

      Stette Haarberg, Ingrid (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-05-04)
      Every year backcountry skiers are victims of avalanches, and human errors are recognized as one of the most important factors in explaining why these accidents happen. We used an embedded mixed method design, in which the qualitative data was given priority, in order to investigate how backcountry skiers plan, conduct and evaluate trips in avalanche terrain. In all, a sample of 23 backcountry skiers ...
    • Salary and power: How occupational status affects children's occupational aspirations 

      Olsen, Marte; Parks-Stamm, Elizabeth J.; Thorsteinsen, Kjærsti; Martiny, Sarah E. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-17)
      In many countries, labor markets are still highly gender segregated, with very few men working in communal occupations such as nursing. Because occupational aspirations start to develop during early childhood, it seems crucial to foster our understanding of which factors affect occupational aspirations during this period. Earlier correlational research showed that the status of occupations seems to ...
    • Sammenheng mellom mindset og tankestrategi 

      Gonzalez, Nathalie Zahra (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-09)
      Prefaktiske tanker – tanker om konsekvenser av tenkte handlinger før de utføres – kan være gunstig for å forstå hvordan fremtidige mål kan oppnås. (Epstude, Scholl & Roese, 2016), mens kontrafaktisk tanker – tanker om hva som alternativt kunne skjedd – er funksjonell ved å hjelpe individet med atferdsregulering (Epstude & Roese, 2008). Denne studien undersøker sammenhengen mellom studenters prefaktiske- ...

    • Sammenhengen mellom lav energi og prokrastinering blant studenter: En litteraturgjennomgang og undersøkelse av et norsk utvalg 

      Johannessen, Andrea; Persen, Trine (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-12-15)
      Prokrastinering er et utbredt problem blant studenter, med en prevalens på 50% eller mer. Prokrastinering innebærer å frivillig utsette oppstarten eller gjennomføringen av en påtenkt atferd, selv om man forventer at utsettelsen innebærer en ulempe. Akademisk prokrastinering innebærer at man utsetter akademiske gjøremål, slik som eksamenslesing og skriving av hjemmeoppgaver. Lav energi er en hyppig ...
    • Sammenligning av TFCBT og BMOI for voksne som lider av PTSD og som har opplevd mishandling i barndommen: en litteraturstudiet 

      Lange, Marianne Horsberg (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-12-15)
      For å vurdere og sammenligne traumefokusert kognitiv atferdsterapi (TFCBT) og kropps- og bevegelsesspesifikke intervensjoner (BMOI) for traumatiserte voksne med PTSD og som var blitt misbrukt i barndommen, ble det gjennomført en systematisk litteraturgjennomgang. To databaser (Pubmed og Psycinfo) ble søkt ved bruk av nøkkelord som PTSD, mishandling i barndommen og TFCBT- eller BMOI-behandlinger. ...
    • «Så om det er det her som har påvirket psyken min eller ikke…»: En kvalitativ studie om sammenhengen mellom hjerteinfarkt og PTSD 

      Rogogjerd, Mari; Røberg Bråten, Karoline (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-12-12)
      Bakgrunnen for denne studien er forskning som tilsier at en stor andel pasienter som overlever et hjerteinfarkt sliter med psykiske helseplager i tiden etter, samt evidens som antyder at de psykiske vanskene hos denne pasientgruppen kan være relatert til PTSD. Formålet med denne kvalitative studien var å eksplorere de psykiske reaksjonene et utvalg av disse pasientene har hatt etter hjerteinfarktet, ...
