This thesis aims at exploring the L1 Chinese and L1Norwegian English learning difficulties in subject-verb agreement and word order and makes a comparison ...

    • Monitoring a changing Arctic: Recent advancements in the study of sea ice microbial communities 

      Matero, Ilkka; Bellas, Christopher; Turpin-Jelfs, Thomas; Anhaus, Philipp; Graeve, Martin; Fripiat, Francois; Tranter, Martyn; Landy, Jack Christopher; Sanchez-Baracaldo, Patricia; Leu, Eva; Katlein, Christian; Mundy, C.J.; Rysgaard, Søren; Tedesco, Letizia; Haas, Christian; Nicolaus, Marcel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-25)
      Sea ice continues to decline across many regions of the Arctic, with remaining ice becoming increasingly younger and more dynamic. These changes alter the habitats of microbial life that live within the sea ice, which support healthy functioning of the marine ecosystem and provision of resources for human-consumption, in addition to influencing biogeochemical cycles (e.g. air–sea CO2 exchange). With ...

      This research will use the case of Ghana’s presidential and parliamentary elections in 2020 to illustrate how polarization manifests in the power struggle and is fueled by structural violence in the constitutional and institutional arrangements towards elections. Ghana is often considered a model of African democracy with a track record of peaceful elections, regular changes of power since its return ...

    • The Anglophone crisis in Cameroon 

      Menyoli, George Ikome (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-10-28)
      The historiography of the “Anglophone Problem” has drawn a lot of ink from Cameroonian historians, lawyers, politicians, and scholars. This is because an Anglophone in the Cameroonian context is not necessarily a Cameroonian who speaks or writes English, or who is imbibed with the Anglo-Saxon culture. Cameroonians are confronted with who an Anglophone is, what is the Anglophone problem, the origin ...

    • Utbrenthet og mestringstro blant psykologer 

      Gregersen Dale, Ida; Indrevoll, Marit; Livesey, Charlèn Johansen (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-12-08)
      Utbrenthet som en stressreaksjon til økende krav i arbeidslivet, seg selv og samfunnet generelt har i de siste årene kommet mer på agendaen, både som forskningstema og i media. Utbrenthet som fenomen i samfunnet ser ut til å ha økt og det tandrere til å være relatert i større grad til yrker som omhandler følelser og hvor sosial nærkontakt med andre mennesker er mer sentralt (Kvam, 2020). Forskning ...
