    • "Good parenting” among middle-class families: A narrative positioning analysis of Norwegian child welfare workers’ stories 

      Fævelen, Malin Jørgine; Sørly, Rita; Kojan, Bente Heggem (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-28)
      This article investigates norms of parenting in the context of the Norwegian child welfare service (CWS). Research from both international and Norwegian contexts shows that current parenting ideals are built on middle-class values that are often taken for granted. However, there is limited knowledge about the interaction between the CWS and middle-class families. Through narrative positioning analysis, ...
    • Executive functions are modulated by the context of dual language use: diglossic, bilingual and monolingual older adults 

      Alrwaita, Najla; Houston-Price, Carmel; Meteyard, Lotte; Voits, Toms; Pliatsikas, Christos (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-27)
      Studies investigating the role of dual language use in modulating executive functions have reported mixed results, with some studies reporting benefits in older adults. These studies typically focus on bilingual settings, while the role of dual language use in diglossic settings is rarely investigated. In diglossia, the two language varieties are separated by context, making it an ideal test case ...
