Rundt 1900 er arkeologien i Norge formalisert som vitenskapelig disiplin med vekt på det norske (Keller 1978, Opedal 1996). Det nasjonalistiske preget var ikke noe unikt for arkeologien her til lands; som den norske arkeologen Haakon Shetelig uttalte i 1910; “ det er nesten overalt det nationale som har været det drivende i den europeiske arkeologi” (Shetelig 1910:59). Til forskjell fra arkeologi i ...

Etter innføringen av Læreplanverket for Kunnskapsløftet i 2020 (LK20) har åpne oppgaver fått en større plass i matematikkfaget, noe som kommer til syne både på halvårsvurderinger utviklet av ulike forlag og på eksamensoppgaver i matematikk for 10. trinn. Mine erfaringer fra praksisperioder i studietiden har gjort meg oppmerksom og nysgjerrig på hvordan åpne oppgaver vurderes. Denne masterstudien ...

Regulation of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is essential to match energy supply to changing cellular energy demands, and to cope with periods of hypoxia. Recent work implicates the circadian molecular clock in control of mitochondrial function and hypoxia sensing. Because diving mammals experience intermittent episodes of severe hypoxia, with diel patterning in dive depth and duration, ...

Vegetation changes in a warming Arctic may affect plant-associated soil microbial communities with possible consequences for the biogeochemical cycling of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N). In a sub-arctic tundra heath, we factorially removed plant species with ecto- and ericoid mycorrhizal associations. After two years, we explored how mycorrhizal type-specific plant removal influences microbial ...

Objective - Parenting sense of competence plays a central role in understanding the dynamics within a family and is central to positive parenting. Nevertheless, few studies have investigated parenting sense of competence among parents facing adversity. The study aimed to investigate self-reported parenting sense of competence (PSOC) and associated factors at individual, family, social and service ...

In the last decades, material discovery has been a very active research field driven by the need to find new materials for many different applications. This has also included materials with heavy elements, beyond the stable isotopes of lead, as most actinides exhibit unique properties that make them useful in various applications. Furthermore, new heavy elements beyond actinides, collectively referred ...

Background: Burnout is frequent among intensive care unit (ICU) healthcare professionals and may result in medical errors and absenteeism. The COVID-19 pandemic caused additional strain during working hours and also affected off-duty life. The aims of this study were to survey burnout levels among ICU healthcare professionals during the first year of COVID-19, describe those who reported burnout, ...

This study delves into the criteria under which referendums can legitimise political choices. It employs survey experiments regarding EU membership across seven European nations, focusing on variations in referendum outcomes, majority margins and voter participation. The empirical results reveal a consistent pattern of legitimacy attributed to referendums, emphasising the influence of majority ...

Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is linked to disruption of the Norrin/ Frizzled-4 signaling pathway, which plays an important role in retinal angiogenesis. Severe or complete knock-down of proteins in the pathway also causes syndromic forms of the condition. Both heterozygous and biallelic pathogenic variants in the FZD4 gene, encoding the pathway's key protein frizzled-4, are known ...

De siste årene har millioner av mennesker blitt drevet på flukt. De fleste flyktninger som kommer til Norge opplever det som trygt å være her, men mange har utfordringer knyttet til integrering, språk, tilhørighet, sosial kompetanse og psykisk helse. Barn og unge er sårbare og trenger støtte i integreringsprosessen, som for eksempel psykososial støtte på skolen. Yrkesgrupper som jobber med barn og ...
