    • Anime in Tourism: An Analysis of Norwegian Anime Enthusiasts’ Motivation for Conducting Anime-Induced Travels to Japan 

      Steine, Isabella M T (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-15)
      Anime is a part of Japan’s biggest growing markets outside of Japan (JNTO, n.d. a; AJA, 2018). What attracts overseas consumers to watch anime ranges from everything to having coherent and interesting storylines, Japanese culture elements (Thelle, 2009; Yegulalp, 2018) to unique styles and drawings (JNTO, 2011; Yegulalp, 2018).

      Kvalsvik, Ellen-Johanne (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-15)
      Waitt and Duffy (2010) emphasised the loss of information in tourism research by arguing that a new understanding of knowledge, social power and interconnection between actors and tourism can be uncovered by focusing our attention on the ear and the world of sound. This thesis focuses on the importance of sound and soundscape in Sámi tourism. Inspired by abductive procedures (Alvesson & Sköldberg, ...

      Alikhani, Elahe (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-14)
      Dark or disaster tourism is a phenomenon in tourism studies, which refers to an interest in travelling to places, which have suffered from natural or human-made disasters. Even though in recent years the study of dark tourism has increased, few efforts have been undertaken to research local communities’ perceptions of dark or disaster tourism. There is a sensitivity to conducting such research, as ...

    • The Norwegian Mobile Army Surgical Hospital in the Korean War (1951-1954): Military Hospital of Humanitarian "Sanctuary?" 

      Lockertsen, Jan-Thore; Fause, Åshild; Hallett, Christine E. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-01)
      During the Korean War (1950–1953) the Norwegian government sent a mobile army surgical hospital (MASH) to support the efforts of the United Nations (UN) Army. From the first, its status was ambiguous. The US-led military medical services believed that the “Norwegian Mobile Army Surgical Hospital” (NORMASH) was no different from any other MASH; but both its originators and its staff regarded it as a ...

    • Novel specular meteor radar systems using coherent MIMO techniques to study the mesosphere and lower thermosphere 

      Chau, J. L.; Urco, Miguel; Vierinen, Juha; Volz, Ryan; Clahsen, Matthias; Pfeffer, Nico; Trautner, Jörg (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-05)
      Typical specular meteor radars (SMRs) use one transmitting antenna and at least a five-antenna interferometric configuration on reception to study the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) region. The interferometric configuration allows the measurement of the angle-of-arrival (AOA) of the detected meteor echoes, which in turn is needed to derive atmospheric parameters (e.g., mean winds, momentum ...

    • Does the Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management Programme Improve Child–Teacher Relationships in Childcare Centres? A 1-Year Universal Intervention in a Norwegian Community Sample. 

      Tveit, Håvard Horndalen; Drugli, May Britt; Fossum, Sturla; Handegård, Bjørn Helge; Stenseng, Frode (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-08)
      The Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management (IY TCM) programme has shown promise in reducing behaviour problems among high-risk children in childcare. However, at present, we do not know whether the IY TCM successfully improves the child–teacher relationship in childcare and whether the effects manifest in both the population and in high-risk groups. Hence, we conducted a quasi-experimental ...

    • «Det är ingen människa. Det är någonting annat.» Det fantastiske i Stefan Spjuts Stallo (2012) og Stalpi (2017) 

      Sæbø, Martin Skjelmo (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-06-16)
      Avhandlingen undersøker fantastiske elementer i Stallo (2012) og Stalpi (2017) i relasjon til en tematikk omkring avfortrylling og gjenfortrylling. Utgangspunkt hva gjelder dette er Tzvetan Todorovs definisjon av fantastisk litteratur, og Max Webers perspektiv på oppløsningen av et tidlig-moderne «magisk» verdensbilde. Dette er en prosess som Weber beskriver som en «avfortrylling av verden» ...

    • Glial activation and inflammation along the Alzheimer's disease continuum 

      Nordengen, Kaja; Kirsebom, Bjørn-Eivind; Henjum, Kristi; Selnes, Per; Gisladottir, Berglind; Wettergreen, Marianne; Torsetnes, Silje Bøen; Grøntvedt, Gøril Rolfseng; Waterloo, Knut; Aarsland, Dag; Nilsson, Lars; Fladby, Tormod (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-21)
      <p><i>Background - </i>Neuronal and glial cell interaction is essential for synaptic homeostasis and may be affected in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We measured cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neuronal and glia markers along the AD continuum, to reveal putative protective or harmful stage-dependent patterns of activation. <p><i>Methods - </i>We included healthy controls (<i>n</i> = 36) and Aβ-positive (Aβ+) ...

Therefore, in the first part of the study we focus particularly on the research around motivation, specifically how to motivate the student to read literature. In the second part, we present ...

    • «Vi har inget värde alls i samhällets och folks ögon alls. Vi är sämre än djur.» Ei nærlesing av Lars Norén sitt drama Skuggpojkarna (1999) 

      Åse, Siren Julianne Jensen (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-15)
      Denne masteroppgåva er ei etisk perspektivert tolking av Lars Norén sitt drama Skuggpojkarna (1999). Dramaet er skrive i den politiske perioden av forfattarskapet, der Norén sitt uttalte mål er å gje menneska som på ein eller anna måte finn seg på utsida av samfunnet, ei stemme. Metoden eg har nytta, er nærlesing. Gjennom døme frå dramaet, vil eg utforske kva grep Norén nyttar for å gje ‘skuggpojkarna’ ...

Åtte av dem er i alderen 17-19 år, fire er mellom 30 og 45 år og de fire i den eldste gruppa er mellom 59 og 70 år. ...

    • Didaktisk anvendelse av Helga Flatlands Bli hvis du kan. Reis hvis du må. 

      Pedersen, Birgitte Amalie Solem (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-15)
      I tillegg til å gi elevene en opplæring i fag, har skolen et samfunnsmandat som går ut på å utvikle elevene til å gode medmennesker som både er utdannet og dannet. Gjennom skolegangen skal elevene både få en faglig tyngde, men også utvikle seg til dannede medborgere for et framtidig samfunnsliv. Dette er ikke et ansvar forbeholdt norsklæreren alene, men mulighetsrommet for danning kan vi finne i ...
