In statistics, samples are drawn from a population in a data‐generating process (DGP). Standard errors measure the uncertainty in estimates of population parameters. In science, evidence is generated to test hypotheses in an evidence‐generating process (EGP). We claim that EGP variation across researchers adds uncertainty—nonstandard errors (NSEs). We study NSEs by letting 164 teams test the same ...

Arctic ecosystems are experiencing extreme climatic, biotic and physical disturbance events that can cause substantial loss of plant biomass and productivity, sometimes at scales of >1000 km2. Collectively known as browning events, these are key contributors to the spatial and temporal complexity of Arctic greening and vegetation dynamics. If we are to properly understand the future of Arctic ...

While belief has recently all but evaporated in the media and among North-European governments, in the Barents Euroarctic Region 1993-2022 cross-border program, modelled on EU neighborhood policies, faith was high for some decades in the institutional cross-border partnerships it facilitated, governed by top-down funding and political promotion. Among the components of this were cross-border interaction ...

Statistical learning, that is, our ability to track and learn from distributional information in the environment, plays a fundamental role in language acquisition, yet little research has investigated this process in older language learners. In the present study, we address this gap by comparing the cross-situational learning of foreign words in younger and older adults. We also tested whether learning ...

Open access is one of the most heated topics in the world of scholarly publishing. Humanities scholars sometimes critique electronic publishing – and Creative Commons licences in particular – as a threat to the publication format that they cherish the most, viz. the monograph. This article argues otherwise. Based on personal experience, its author argues that open sharing of monograph-size theses ...

This paper presents a novel protocol for reconstructing formation processes of archaeological depositional sequences, applied to Holocene-wide cave deposits located on a remote coastal island in Arctic Norway as a case study. Extensive GPR surveying is correlated with geochemical analysis and in situ environmental deposit monitoring for sedimentary fingerprinting and forecasting of future ...

Background In Norway, as in other countries, national eHealth systems, such as the Summary Care Record (SCR), have been implemented to improve the collaboration around patients by sharing patient information between health professionals across healthcare institutions and administrative levels. Although widely implemented across the health and care services in Norway, evaluations of the SCR indicate ...

Native language (L1) attrition is ubiquitous in modern globalized society, but its cognitive/psycholinguistic mechanisms are poorly understood. We investigated lexico-semantic L1 attrition in L1 Russian immigrants in Israel, who predominantly use their second language (L2), Hebrew, in daily life. We included Russian monolinguals as a control group. We tested two potential causal mechanisms of ...

Denne rapporten handler om idrettens plass i barns liv. I rapportens første del går vi gjennom hvordan barns idrettsaktivitet og organisatoriske rammer for barns idrettsdeltakelse har endret seg historisk. Vi gir også en oversikt over nyere norsk forskning om barns idrettsliv. I den andre delen undersøker vi noen sider ved norske 10 til 12-åringers treningsvaner og idrettsliv gjennom analyser av et ...
