      The majority of mindfulness research to date has reported only on the group-level effects of interventions. Therefore, there is a need to better understand who is most likely to benefit from mindfulness interventions. This study reports on moderation analyses from a two-centre randomised controlled trial of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) among 288 medical and psychology students. ...

      Mindfulness has attracted increased interest in the field of health professionals’ education due to its proposed double benefit of providing self-help strategies to counter stress and burnout symptoms and cultivating attitudes central to the role of professional helpers. The current study explored the experiential aspects of learning mindfulness. Specifically, we explored how first-year medical and ...

    • Mindfulness training for stress management: a randomised controlled study of medical and psychology students

      Background: Distress and burnout among medical and psychology professionals are commonly reported and have implications for the quality of patient care delivered. Already in the course of university studies, medicine and psychology students report mental distress and low life satisfaction. There is a need for interventions that promote better coping skills in students in order to prevent distress ...

    • Note to first-year university students: Just do it! In the end, the fact that you study may be more important than how you study. 

      Sæle, Rannveig Grøm; Dahl, Tove I.; Sørlie, Tore; Friborg, Oddgeir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-20)
      Education is important to society, yet many students do not complete the educations they start. In the present study of 426 students at a Norwegian university, we examined the predictive value of study-related variables with regard to student status one and five years after initial enrollment (stayers versus dropouts). The logistic regression analyses indicated that older students and students who ...

    • Poorer self-reported mental health and general health among first year upper secondary school students do not predict school dropout: a five-year prospective study 

      Goll, Charlotte Bjørnskov; Sørlie, Tore; Friborg, Oddgeir; Ottosen, Karl-Ottar; Sæle, Rannveig Grøm (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-02-08)

      Sæle, Rannveig Grøm; Dahl, Tove Irene; Sørlie, Tore; Friborg, Oddgeir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-11-22)
      Individual differences in student learning influence academic performance, and two aspects influencing the learning process are the particular learning approach the students use and procrastination behaviour. We examined the relationships between learning approaches, procrastination and academic achievement (measured 1 year later as the grade point average (GPA)) amongst 428 first-year university ...

    • Resilience to Discrimination Among Indigenous Sami and Non-Sami Populations in Norway: The SAMINOR2 Study 

      Friborg, Oddgeir; Sørlie, Tore; Hansen, Ketil Lenert (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-21)
      Discrimination is generally negative for mental health and well-being; however, few studies have examined protective effects of resilience factors, especially among minority indigenous people. Here, we validated a short version of the Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA) and examined its protective effects against discrimination among Norwegian indigenous Sami and non-Sami populations. Data come from ...

    • Women with coronary heart disease – making sense of their symptoms and their experiences from interacting with their general practitioners 

      Gundersen, Agnes Erika Berg; Sørlie, Tore; Bergvik, Svein (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 ...
