Exploring student explanations: What types can be observed, and how do teachers initiate and respond to them?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03)This article presents different types of student explanations that can were observed, and how these were initiated and responded to. The research is based on the practice of five teachers, with all interactions having been analysed and categorized to develop the concepts. First, three distinct types of student explanation were found: explaining actions, explaining reasons, and explaining concepts. ... -
Preregistration: The interplay between linguistic and embodied systems in conceptual processing
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021)This preregistration outlines a study that will investigate the dynamic nature of conceptual processing by examining the interplay between linguistic distributional systems—comprising word co-occurrence and word association—and embodied systems—comprising sensorimotor and emotional information. A set of confirmatory research questions are addressed using data from the Calgary Semantic Decision ... -

Living with socialism: Toward an archaeology of a post-soviet industrial town
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2020-11-08)While the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, it left a heavy legacy in the form of industrial towns, residential buildings, infrastructure networks, and ecological damage that extends the Soviet Union’s effective history into the present day. This paper explores this legacy through the perspective of contemporary archaeology to better understand how material culture from the Soviet period is being ... -

How Does the Shift from Handwriting to Digital Writing Technologies Impact Writing for Learning in School?
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022)The shift from handwriting to using writing technologies are widespread in today’s schools. And where handwriting still is the most used method, it is supported with digital writing technologies. My aim in this article is to show and discuss some aspects on how digital writing technologies impacts learning in school. Writing is a frequent activity in all education and the shift from handwriting til ... -
How do teachers share and develop student ideas?
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-10-03)This article aims to try out a framework describing teacher positions based on an analysis of their interactions, and through this, gather ideas for further development of the framework. This article uses shared data from TWG 19, with data from five classrooms. These were analyzed by categorizing interaction from transcripts of the data. The analysis focuses mainly on the interactions related to one ... -
Incidental changes in orthographic processing in the native language as a function of learning a new language late in life
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-25)Acquiring a second alphabetic language also entails learning a new set of orthographic rules and specific patterns of grapheme combinations (namely, the orthotactics). The present longitudinal study aims to investigate whether orthotactic sensitivity changes over the course of a second language learning programme. To this end, a group of Spanish monolingual old adults completed a Basque language ... -
Old-age mortality and social class in northern Norway in the first half of the twentieth century
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-13)The number of studies on social inequality in mortality in Norway before 1960 is limited and they often focus on early life outcomes. Little is known about socioeconomic differences in old-age mortality before the emergence of the welfare state. Linked census and church records from the Historical Population Register of Norway were used to study a sample of 10,457 men and women born 1841–1870 ... -
Impediments to mathematical creativity: Fixation and flexibility in proof validation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-15)Mathematical techniques in proof writing can be narrowed down to specific proof styles. Simply put, proofs can be direct or indirect- the latter using the Law of the Excluded Middle from logic as well as the axiom of Choice, to prove existence of mathematical objects. However, the thinking skills involved in writing indirect proofs are prone to errors, especially from novice proof writers such as ... -
Cómo ser un adverbio siendo un sustantivo sin ser una preposición
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-18)El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar por qué el español y otras lenguas admiten complementos de tiempo construidos como sintagmas nominales sin preposición. Propondremos que el motivo es que la estructura tempoaspectual de la cláusula se define en la espina dorsal del árbol sintáctico, lo cual hace innecesario emplear un elemento relacional para construir ese significado: el sintagma es un argumento ... -
What is the incoherence objection to legal entrapment?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-27)Some legal theorists say that legal entrapment to commit a crime is incoherent. So far, there is no satisfactorily precise statement of this objection in the literature: it is obscure even as to the type of incoherence that is purportedly involved. (Perhaps consequently, substantial assessment of the objection is also absent.) We aim to provide a new statement of the objection that is more precise ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)Después de revisar la estructura esquemática de la jácara quevediana, basada en una serie de microcontextos compuestos por referencias externas y sobre todo literarias previas, me detengo en explicar los versos introductorios de la jácara número 7: «Vida y milagros de Montilla» (Blecua OP, núm. 855, vv. 1-28). El trabajo se centra luego en las referencias históricas que aparecen allí, se sugiere una ... -
Dutch modality exclusivity norms for 336 properties and 411 concepts
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2018)Part of the toolkit of language researchers is formed of stimuli that have been rated on various dimensions. The current study presents modality exclusivity norms for 336 properties and 411 concepts in Dutch. Forty-two respondents rated the auditory, haptic, and visual strength of these words. Mean scores were then computed, yielding acceptable reliability values. Measures of modality exclusivity ... -
Frankenstein at 200: Introduction
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018)Derek Attridge says of James Joyce that one can never be a first-time reader of that authors work.1 The same can be said of Mary Shelley, particularly with regard to her first novel, Frankenstein: Or The Modern Prometheus. There cannot be many readers who come to it without prior ideas of what to expect. Images of the creature pervade popular culture, and most English readers know Victors tale of ... -
Refusal – opening otherwise forms of research
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-14)An increasing interest towards researching other forms of knowledges is taking place, expanding the boundaries of knowledge to include forms that have been historically marginalised, negated, and neglected by the Western academy. Parallel to this, we have identified a rising critique of how voices marginalized by colonial modes of academic knowledge production are included, through a single-sided ... -
More refined typology and design in linguistic relativity: The case of motion event encoding
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-11)Linguistic relativity is the influence of language on other realms of cognition. For instance, the way movement is expressed in a person’s native language may influence how they perceive movement. Motion event encoding (MEE) is usually framed as a typological dichotomy. Path-in-verb languages tend to encode path information within the verb (e.g., ‘leave’), whereas manner-in-verb languages encode ... -
Substituted decision making and the dispositional choice account
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-03-02)There are two main ways of understanding the function of surrogate decision making in a legal context: the Best Interests Standard and the Substituted Judgment Standard. First, we will argue that the Best Interests Standard is difficult to apply to unconscious patients. Application is difficult regardless of whether they have ever been conscious. Second, we will argue that if we accept the least ... -
Alignment and locality in the typology of affixing language games
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-30)This paper contributes to the discussion around the (extra-)grammatical status of language games (or ludlings). We collected over 60 games which are based on the affixation of a dummy morpheme, which is infixed and iterated in most cases. While some are obviously reduplicative, closer investigation reveals that all the games involving iterativity function like reduplication. Our optimality-theoretic ...
