    • Institutional inequality and individual preferences for honesty and generosity 

      Birkelund, Johan; Cherry, Todd (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-10)
      This paper reports on an experiment that investigates how inequality in advantage affects individual preferences for honesty and generosity. In a two-stage experiment, subjects first earn money according to self-reported production, which can include honest and dishonest reports. Subjects then play the dictator game and decide how much, if any, of their earnings to share with an anonymous recipient. ...
    • Intentions to Consume Sustainably Produced Fish: The Moderator Effects of Involvement and Environmental Awareness 

      Skallerud, Kåre; Armbrecht, John; Tuu, Ho Huy (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-18)
      The purpose of this study is to apply the conceptual framework of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) to explain the consumption of sustainable produced fish in Sweden. We seek to understand the moderating role of food product involvement and environmental awareness as extensions of traditional constructs such as attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control. The data were derived from ...

Baseline data from 2019 is compared with data from 2020, the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. A methodology based on Big Data is developed through the Skyscanner metasearch engine, working with 20,756 million flight searches and 1979 million ...
    • Investigation of the influence of product variety on inventories in hospitals 

      Aravazhi, Agaraoli; Helgheim, Berit; Jæger, Bjørn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2020-05-10)
      The literature on product variety provides great insights into various businesses. However, little research has been conducted on product variety in the healthcare industry. This study aims to explore the influence of product variety on inventory in hospitals. Since most hospitals are known to replenish products using a homegrown ad-hoc system, a model is developed for exploring all possible ...
    • Investment and revenue cap under incentive regulation: The case study of the Norwegian electricity distributors 

      Zhang, Dengjun; Xie, Jinghua (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-07)
      Electricity distribution operators are regulated as monopolies around the world. Incentive regulation is further applied to relate their allowed revenues (revenue cap) to cost efficiency and investment. Incentive regulation varies cross countries and has evolved over time for individual countries. Norway is one of the first countries reforming the network distributors by incentive regulation. Using ...
    • Is migration important for regional convergence? Comparative evidence for Norwegian and Swedish counties, 1980-2000 

      Westerlund, Olle; Østbye, Stein (Working paper; Arbeidsnotat, 2006-06)
      Regional convergence studies have relied on net migration data in assessing the impact of migration. With heterogeneous labour, the implied symmetrical treatment of immigration and emigration cannot be justified a priori.. Because of heterogeneity among migrants, gross migration flows may lead to considerable interregional redistribution of human capital even when net migration is zero. Moreover, ...
    • Is the Norwegian cod industry locked into a value-destructive volume logic? 

      Bertheussen, Bernt Arne; Dreyer, Bent (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-02)
      Wild cod is a scarce and valuable natural resource. However, cod fishing along the coast of northern Norway has largely been about fishing as much as possible with the least possible resource effort, and thereby at the lowest cost. This traditional volume logic is rooted in biology, meteorology, and small scale capture technology. The logic is further enhanced by new large scale capture technology ...
    • Japanese tourists’ relatedness and connectedness with nature 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine; Lee, Young-Sook; Kim, Hyelin Lina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-15)
      Nature-based tourism continues to gain importance globally. Research on sustainability claims that disconnection between nature and humanity may contribute to the environmental problems that we face in the 21st century. It is, thus, quintessential to better understand the underlying variables for sustainable behaviour in a tourism context. Research suggests scales on nature relatedness (NRS) and ...
    • Kan kornkrisen redde flere brød? 

      Alm, Siril; Aadland, Eli Kristin; Almli, Valerie Lengard; Capodistrias, Paula; Grimsby, Gard Sveinung; Nordbø, Torunn Karlsen; Schrøder, Anne Marie; Skallerud, Wenche; Elstad Stensgård, Aina; Wergedahl, Hege; Østergaard, Sofie (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2022-03-27)
      Krig, nedbør og økte priser på olje, kunstgjødsel og papiremballasje fører til kornkrise som gjør at Ola og Kari Nordmann må betale mer for sitt daglige brød i tiden fremover.
    • Kappfiske - problem eller løsning? 

      Flåten, Ola; Hermansen, Øystein (Working paper; Arbeidsnotat, 2005-02)
      Landingene av torsk i Norge er sterkt sesongvarierte. Fangstene i første halvår i årene 1983- 84 utgjorde om lag 85 % av årets totalfangst. I 1986-88 var andelen sunket til om lag 70 %, mens den steg til 80 % i 1999-2000 og til 90 % i 2001-02. Dette landingsmønsteret for kystflåtens fangster av torskefisk er et resultat av en rekke faktorer; fiskens tilgjengelighet, kvalitet, pris, flåtestruktur, ...
    • Keep on fighting: The dynamics of head starts in all-pay auctions 

      Clark, Derek J.; Nilssen, Tore (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-22)
      We investigate a model of a series of contests in which a contestant's past and present success gives a head start over a rival in the future. How this advantage from winning affects contestants' efforts, whether the laggard gives up or keeps on fighting, and how the head start develops over time, are key issues. We find that the expected effort of the laggard will always be higher than the rival ...
    • Keeping up with Jeremy Jones: Positional preferences and risky terrain choices 

      Mannberg, Andrea; Hendrikx, Jordy; Johnson, Jerry (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018-10-07)
      We use results from an online survey distributed in North America (N = 796), to analyze if backcountry riders’ level of contentment is affected by others’ backcountry activities, i.e., if they are positional, and if positionality for backcountry experiences is associated with increased risk-taking behavior. Our findings suggest that many are positional, and that positional preferences for challenging ...

    • Kritisk viktig, men samfunnsøkonomisk ulønnsomt … 

      Bardal, Kjersti Granås; Solvoll, Gisle; Mathisen, Terje Andreas; Østbye, Stein (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021-04-19)
      <p>Samferdselsprosjekter som oppleves som kritisk viktige lokalt og regionalt, vurderes ofte som samfunnsøkonomisk ulønnsomme. Med mange prosjekter som konkurrerer om begrensede offentlige midler, er det da svært viktig at beslutninger om hvilke prosjekter som skal prioriteres er velbegrunnede og gjennomtenkte. <p>Den samfunnsøkonomiske analysen skal – ved å synliggjøre tiltakenes samfunnsøkonomiske ...
