Valence, arousal and concreteness mediate word association
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)<p><b>Background:</b> Given the impact of lexical properties such as valence, arousal, and concreteness in language processing, recent computational methods have been designed to extrapolate these values from different sources, such as word co-occurrence or word association corpora. These methods have been proven to be particularly successful approaches to extract lexical features from word ... -
Posición excepcional de sintagmas preposicionales en el sintagma nominal
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)Este artículo analiza el caso excepcional de ciertos sintagmas preposicionales que aparecen en posición prenominal dentro de los constituyentes nominales. Contra la regla general de la gramática del español, que prohíbe los sintagmas preposicionales antepuestos (*un con leche café), estas estructuras permiten la anteposición: el hasta ayer ministro de turismo, el para muchos mejor escritor vivo en ... -
Krashen’s claims through a usage-based lens
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-01)In the following, I will briefly outline how Krashen's Input Hypothesis, Acquisition/Learning distinction, and the Natural Order Hypothesis hold up when seen through the lens of usage‐ based approaches. A number of frameworks fall under the umbrella label of usage‐based approaches, including cognitive‐functional linguistics (Evans et al., 2007), usage‐based construction grammar (Goldberg, 2006, ... -
Hamsuns Markens grøde (1917) som sideskrift til Johan Turis Muitalus sámiid birra – En bog om lappernes liv (1910)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-09)I 1911 skrev Hamsun en begeistret omtale av Johan Turis Muitalus sámiid birra – En bog om lappernes liv (1910), en bok som i dag regnes som en klassiker innen samisk litteratur. I denne nylesningen av Markens grøde (1917) argumenterer jeg for at Hamsuns nobelprisroman kan betraktes som et sideskrift til Turis bok. I likhet med Turis bok om samene er Hamsuns bonderoman en bredt anlagt beskrivelse av ... -
Prepositional phrases and case in North American (heritage) Icelandic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-15)The paper investigates the use of PPs, specifically prepositions and the case marking on their DP arguments, in moribund North American (heritage) Icelandic (NAmIce), using data from a map task experiment. Since prepositional phrases combine semantic properties with morphosyntactic properties, PPs allow us to investigate the relative vulnerability of both domains at once. Our results show that ... -
Motion event descriptions in Swedish, French, Thai and Telugu: a study in post-Talmian motion event typology
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-04)Motion-event typology has moved into a “post-Talmian” terrain of approaches focusing on an open-ended number of patterns across languages and constructions. Following a proposal to distinguish between four typological clusters, we systematically compared the motion event descriptions in four languages suggested to exemplify these clusters: Swedish, French, Thai and Telugu, with the help of an ... -
Why prefixes (almost) never participate in vowel harmony
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-06)One of the most common ways of morphological marking is affixation, morphemes are classified according to their position. In languages with affixal morphology, suffixes and prefixes are the most common types of affixes. Despite several proposals, it has been impossible to identify solid generalisations about the behaviour of prefixes, in opposition to suffixes. This article argues that the reason ... -
Kjønna språk og språkbruk før og no
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-12)Denne artikkelen, som har utgangspunkt i eit plenumsforedrag med same tittel, halde på SONE-konferansen i 2019, er eit oversyn over språk og kjønn-forskinga i Norge, slik denne forskinga spring ut av feminismen og den generelle sosiolingvistikken. Langt på veg speglar den norske forskinga den internasjonale, særleg den angloamerikanske. Såleis har det vore naudsynt å referere til og å gjere greie ... -
Public libraries in Norway and the Covid-19 pandemic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)Public libraries have played a central role in natural disasters such as the tornado in the Gulf of Mexico in 2004/2005 and the tsunami in the Tohoku region of Japan in 2011, but also in the financial crisis from 2008. While public libraries in these crises took on a very active role in providing shelter and infrastructure for their citizens, health crises seem to tell a different story. The Covid-19 ... -
Verb placement variation in Swedish and Danish
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-17)This article gives a summary of the Swedish and Danish data on verb placement in the Nordic Word order Database (NWD; Lundquist et al. 2019). The data were collected using an elicited production paradigm. I discuss variation in verb placement in Danish in four constructions: in embedded clauses with respect to adverbs (embedded V2), in main clauses with respect to preverbal and sentence-medial ... -
Variable verb second in Norwegian main and embedded clauses
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-17)Norwegian has verb second (V2) word order in main but not embedded clauses. Although as a first approximation V2 is a phenomenon characteristic of root clauses, it has long been known that it occurs also in a restricted set of embedded clauses in Norwegian, as in many, if not all, of the other North Germanic languages. Many Norwegian dialects in addition allow deviations from the standard V2 word ... -
The thousand-question Spanish general knowledge database
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-29)General knowledge questionnaires have been ubiquitously used to study a wide variety of phenomena, such as illusory truth, error correction and tip-ofthe-tongue situations. However, their normings are highly restricted to the territory and the time period they in which they were obtained. This requires that new normings are obtained for each new territory in which they be used. Here, we present ... -
Nationaløkonomiske og -kulturelle udfordringer for nordiske spilindustrier i en platformkapitalistisk verden
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-30)Denne artikel undersøger de økonomiske og kulturelle forhold mellem digitale platforme og norske og danske spiludviklere. Hvor digitale platforme som Apples og Googles appbutikker, Valves Steam og Sonys, Microsofts og Nintendos onlinebutikker har gjort det lettere for spiludviklere i Norge og Danmark at nå ud til millioner af potentielle kunder, introducerer jeg nogle udfordringer og kritiske ... -
Predicting Second Language Proficiency with Resting-State Brain Rhythms.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-24)Understanding what traits facilitate second language (L2) learning has been the focus of many psycholinguistic studies for the last thirty years. One source of insight comes from quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), i.e., electrical brain activity recorded from the scalp. Using qEEG, Prat et al. [1] found that functional brain connectivity is predictive of language learning ability. This study ... -
Productivity and the acquisition of gender
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-04)Children's differing learning trajectories cross-linguistically have been at the forefront of gender acquisition research, often with conflicting results and conclusions. As a result, the source of children's different learning behaviors in gender acquisition has been unclear. I argue that children's gender acquisition is driven by the search for productive patterns. First, I provide corpus studies ... -
DOUBLE-NUMBER MARKING MATTERS for BOTH L1 and L2 PROCESSING of NONLOCAL AGREEMENT SIMILARLY: AN ERP INVESTIGATION
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-07)The present study uses event-related potentials (ERPs) to examine nonlocal agreement processing between native (L1) English speakers and Chinese–English second language (L2) learners, whose L1 lacks number agreement. We manipulated number marking with determiners (the vs. that/these) to see how determiner-specification influences both native and nonnative processing downstream for verbal number ... -
"Kassetekstens didaktikk. Korte prosatekster i klasserom og auditorium"
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-11)Å bruke korte prosatekster (såkalte «kassetekster») i litteraturundervisningen har store fordeler, både i videregående skole og i høyere utdanning. Kortformatet – anvendt i kortprosa, lynfiksjoner og prosalyrikk – er nemlig kjent for unge, utrente lesere ettersom det blir brukt i e-poster, nyhetsartikler, Twitter-tekster, Snapchat-beskjeder og andre kulturtekster, også muntlige. Ved å utnytte et ... -
The Basic Psychological Needs in the Classroom Scale (BPN-CS)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-24)Recent experimental and theoretical studies have shown that the assessment of students’ satisfaction of their basic psychological needs (BPN) can be a powerful resource to identify different areas to improve their well-being, engagement, or learning achievement in school contexts. However, currently, the number of validated tools to assess the satisfaction of the BPN is very low, hindering informed ... -
«Jeg er så veldig redd for hvordan jeg påvirker elevene.» Utfordringer og muligheter i undervisningen av folkehelse og livsmestring i norskfaget
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-10)I den nye læreplanen (LK20) ble folkehelse og livsmestring innført som tverrfaglig tema i norsk skole. Denne studien undersøker begrepsforståelse, skjønnlitteraturens betydning og didaktikk knyttet til temaet. Våren 2019 ble 13 norsklærere fra fem videregående skoler intervjuet ved bruk av en semi-strukturert intervjuguide. Den tematiske analysen av datamaterialet viser følgende resultater: Lærerne ... -
¡Hola! Nice to meet you: language mixing and biographical in- 2 formation processing
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-26)In bilingual communities, social interactions take place in both single- and mixed-language contexts. Some of the information shared in multilingual conversations, such as interlocutors’ personal information, is often required in consequent social encounters. In this study, we explored whether the autobiographical information provided in a single-language context is better remembered than in an ...
