With whom, and about what, do we compete for social status? Effects of social closeness and relevance of reference groups for positional concerns
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-24)We used an experimental approach to test if there is a link between positional preferences and the social <i>closeness</i> and <i>relevance</i> of the reference group. More specifically, we tested if people are more positional when they compare with friends and colleagues than when they compare to an anonymous person in society. We further tested if the gender of the members in the reference group ... -
Law after July 22, 2011: Survivors, Memory and Reconstruction
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)While the criminal law and security governance aspects of the July 22 terror attack in Norway have been extensively analyzed in the academic literature, much less attention has been given to processes involving civil law, legal mobilization and legal-bureaucratic processes. The slow workings of the law mean that the aftermath of July 22 is still unfolding in different legal processes. This ... -

Acute dose-response exposure of a peracetic acid-based disinfectant to Atlantic salmon parr reared in recirculating aquaculture systems
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-15)There is a high regard for peracetic acid (PAA)-based disinfectants in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) because of the low risk of bioaccumulation, fast degradation with neutral residuals and minimal impact on biofilter performance. However, the no-observed-effect concentration in Atlantic salmon parr is unknown. The present study evaluated the effect of an acute PAA exposure on Atlantic ... -
Implementation of a trauma system in Norway: a national survey
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-01-13)Background: Trauma systems have improved outcomes for injured patients, but might be challenging to implement.

Effects of music production on cortical plasticity within cognitive rehabilitation of patients with mild traumatic brain injury
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-02-01)Objective: We explored the effects of playing the piano on patients with cognitive impairment after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and, addressed the question if this approach would stimulate neural networks in re-routing neural connections and link up cortical circuits that had been functional inhibited due to disruption of brain tissue. Functional neuroimaging scans (fMRI) and neuropsychological ... -
Interaction of Phytocompounds of Echinacea purpurea with ABCB1 and ABCG2 Efflux Transporters
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-17)Preparations of Echinacea purpurea (E. purpurea) are widely used for the management of upper respiratory infections, influenza, and common cold, often in combination with other conventional drugs. However, the potential of phytochemical constituents of E. purpurea to cause herb−drug interactions via ABCB1 and ABCG2 efflux transporters remains elusive. The purpose of this study was to investigate ... -
Interpreting foreign smiles: Language context and type of scale in the assessment of perceived happiness and sadness
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-02-01)The current study focuses on how different scales with varying demands can affect our subjective assessments. We carried out 2 experiments in which we asked participants to rate how happy or sad morphed images of faces looked. The two extremes were the original happy and original sad faces with 4 morphs in between. We manipulated language of the task—namely, half of the participants carried it ... -

Long-Term Socioeconomic Impact of Informal Care Provided to Patients with Pacemakers: Remote vs. Conventional Monitoring
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-16)The impact of informal care immediately after pacemaker (PM) implantation has been well established; however, not much is known about its long-term effects. The present study compared personal characteristics, associated problems, workloads, time, and costs related to informal care provided to patients with PM under remote monitoring (RM) vs. conventional monitoring (CM) in the hospital, five ... -
Árran - levende historier i landskapet
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2006)Langs de gamle flytteveiene, fra innlandet over kjølen og ut til kysten, finner vi de samiske árran – ildstedene. De ligger der som perler på en snor, og knytter bånd mellom øst og vest. Árran ligger på boplassene i furuskogen, i tregrensen, på høyfjellet og ved havet, steder valgt ut for hver årstid. Studier av ulike árran er kilder til forståelse av tidligere generasjoners liv og virke. Ennå ... -

"Das Museum, in dem nichts fehlt und nichts zu viel ist". Zum frühneuzeitlichen Sammeln, auch von Büchern, zwischen Straßburg und Uppsala
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)<i>Musæum seu de optimo librorum genere Commentatio</i> [Museum, oder eine Abhandlung über die beste Art von Büchern] – dies ist der Titel einer bislang unbeachteten Handschrift in den Beständen der Universitätsbibliothek Uppsala.2 Diese Titelwahl mag aus heutiger Sicht verwundern, da bei einer Auswahl an Büchern doch eher an eine Bibliothek denn an ein Museum gedacht wird. Zur Entstehungszeit der ... -
Supporting Students’ Understanding of Caring Science as a Meaningful Basis for Practice
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10)Caring science has been described as abstract, difficult to apply, or unscientific common sense. An alternative view is that caring science knowledge does not pose a greater challenge because it is abstract, but because it challenges caregivers’ existence. No matter how nursing faculty perceive these challenges, it is crucial to create a context where students are supported in the integration of ... -
Opportunities for caries prevention using an ion-releasing coating material: a randomised clinical study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-04)Ion-releasing materials (containing fuoride and boron, for example) have shown caries-preventive efects in vitro. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the impact of multi-ion-releasing coating material on pH stabilisation, plaque accumulation and the bacterial composition of dental plaque during a time period of 90 days. The null hypothesis tested here was that the evaluated material ... -

A narrative inquiry of storytelling: a learning strategy for nursing students to reflect on their interactions with patients
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-28)Arts-based learning in the context of clinical placement is rarely discussed in the literature, yet storytelling is potentially a valuable tool for students to reflect on the multi-dimensional experience. Clandinin and Connolly’s approach to narrative inquiry provided the methodology to explore students’ experiences of storytelling as a learning strategy. Narrative inquiry is a relationship-based ... -
The MAX Effect in an Oil Exporting Country: The Case of Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-29)This paper assesses the effects of investors’ lottery-seeking behavior on expected returns in the Norwegian equity market, a relatively small equity market dominated by the energy industry. We use the MAX factor defined as maximum daily return over the previous month as the proxy of investors’ preference for lottery-like stocks. Despite evidence from recent literature that MAX has a negative ... -
Wirelessly operated bioelectronic sutures for the monitoring of deep surgical wounds
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-15)Monitoring surgical wounds post-operatively is necessary to prevent infection, dehiscence and other complications. However, the monitoring of deep surgical sites is typically limited to indirect observations or to costly radiological investigations that often fail to detect complications before they become severe. Bioelectronic sensors could provide accurate and continuous monitoring from within the ...
