    • Effects of Experimentally Induced Pain on Value-Based Decision-Making in Healthy Adults 

      Klakegg, Ina (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-16)
      Every day we make decisions that influence our well-being. Because of this, it is crucial that we make the most optimal decisions possible in order to minimize unnecessary loss or suffering. Some groups might be more vulnerable to making maladaptive choices, such as those suffering with chronic pain, which is associated with various cognitive impairments. As it currently stands there is not a clear ...
    • The Shame of Buried Giants and the Courage to Dig Them Up 

      de Besche, Torstein (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-16)
      Sammendrag Når gruppen din begår en handling som du ser på som moralsk feil, kan du enten ta eierskap av det moralske nederlaget og beklage, aktivt prøve å gjemme bevis og unngå tema, eller ikke gjøre noe som helst. Vi replikerte studier på gruppe-basert skam som skiller skam inn i to forskjellige emosjonskalaer, rykte skam og moralsk skam. En konfirmatorisk faktoranalyse viste at gruppe-basert ...
    • Combining Prolonged Heat Pain with Low Controllability Over Rewards and Losses Results in Minimal Effects on Value-Based Decision-Making 

      Kuprejeva, Anastasija (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-16)
      Previous research has shown that experimental manipulations aiming at inducing choice strategies resembling learned helplessness (LH) in healthy adults influence the arbitration between simple and complex decision-making strategies. However, research regarding decision-making and LH-manipulations with experimental pain is lacking. Therefore, the present study applied the new LH-induction method with ...
    • Editorial: New Perspectives on Procrastination, Volume II

      The field of procrastination is growing almost exponentially, with the academic search engine Semantic Scholar indicating approximately half of the more than 16,000 articles written on the topic were published in the previous 6 years. At this point, review articles of the field are becoming increasingly important. In addition, foundational issues still are being addressed, in particular the diagnosis ...
    • Feeling and Thinking about It Are Two Different Things: How to Capture Momentary Emotions of Extreme Sports in the Field 

      Hetland, Audun (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-24)
      To learn about extreme sports and what motivates such activities, we need to understand the emotions embedded in the experience itself. However, how we go about assessing these emotions might provide us with very different answers. An experience is a fleeting and ever-changing phenomenon, rich in detail and filled with nuances. What we remember and, therefore, what we are able to report from our ...
    • From thought to action: On the relevance of including situational cues in thought about intended actions 

      Martiny-Huenger, Torsten; Damanskyy, Yevhen; Parks-Stamm, Elizabeth J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-23)
      Successful everyday self-regulation often hinges on implementing intended responses at a later time–often in specific situations. We address this self-regulation challenge by examining the role of individuals’ thought about intended actions–and specifically whether it does or does not include situational cues. We hypothesized that including situational cues when thinking about intended actions enables ...

    • Unintentional response priming from verbal action–effect instructions 

      Damanskyy, Yevhen; Martiny-Huenger, Torsten; Parks-Stamm, Elizabeth J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-02)
      Action–effect learning is based on a theoretical concept that actions are associated with their perceivable consequences through bidirectional associations. Past research has mostly investigated how these bidirectional associations are formed through actual behavior and perception of the consequences. The present research expands this idea by investigating how verbally formulated action–effect ...
    • Replicating the effect of brain stimulation on mind wandering: A pre-registered study 

      Alexandersen, Andreas (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-15)
      Mind wandering (MW) is a common mental phenomenon. Despite this, there is still much we don’t know about this pervasive mental state. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been proposed to be able to modulate mind wandering propensity, but a large variability in results paints an inconclusive picture in the current brain stimulation literature, and a satisfactory conclusion is still ...
    • Can a happy relationship predict a happy life? A population-based study of maternal well-being during the life transition of pregnancy, infancy, and toddlerhood

    • Structural differences in brain structure after trauma An analysis based on The Tromsø Study 

      Christensen, Maren Angel (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-15)
      Research conducted on trauma patients has shown that the local brain regions in patients diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is smaller than in people who are not diagnosed with PTSD. Therefore, the research question we address in this master thesis is: Are there structural brain differences in participants that have experienced traumatic incidents in their lives? We also use anxiety ...
    • The use and misuse of methods for publication bias assessment and adjustment in meta-analyses of psychotherapeutic interventions: A systematic survey of the literature 

      Aas-Hansen, Espen; Røst, Susanne; Syla, Granit (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-16)
      Publication bias poses a threat to the validity of meta-analytic reviews, as it can lead to summary effect size estimates becoming inflated. Meta-analysts are advised to utilize multiple methods for detecting and controlling for publication bias. Our study aims to examine which and how many methods meta-analysts of psychotherapeutic interventions for depression, anxiety and PTSD utilize to ...
    • Helseplager som følge av stress - til forveksling lik CFS/ME? Hvordan kan foreliggende empiri hjelpe oss til en bedre differensialdiagnostisk vurdering av personer med stressutløste helseplager og CFS/ME? 

      Danielsen, Lisa; Nordvang, Simon (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-14)
      Artikkelen presenterer en sammenfatning av helseplager som kan følge av stressbelastninger, sammenlignet med diagnostiske kriterier for kronisk utmattelsessyndrom/myalgisk encefalomyelopati (CFS/ME). Forskningsfeltet viser at fatigue, søvnforstyrrelser, smerter og mageplager, samt ulike kognitive, autonome og immunologiske forstyrrelser, er plager som kan oppstå både som følge av stressbelastninger ...
    • Tenkningens form og innhold i det Schizofrene spektrum - En empirisk studie av relasjonen mellom de bisarre vrangforestillinger og formelle tankeforstyrrelser 

      Evenrud, Anders; Kvalnes, Rakel (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-14)
      Schizofrenispektrum lidelsene har en høy personlig og samfunnsmessig kostnad. Forskning på disse lidelsene har dessverre ført til det mange i feltet omtaler som begrenset og mange av måloppnåelsene i nevrologisk, biologisk og klinisk forskning har ikke blitt oppfylt. Fenomenologisk psykopatologi er en retning som har blitt re-aktualisert i kjølvannet av debatten om årsaken til denne stagnasjonen. ...
    • «Mamma, er du mest glad i telefonen eller i meg?» En kvalitativ studie av småbarnsforeldres erfaringer med og forhold til mobilbruk rundt barna 

      Augustson, Anders; Klepaker, Peder Tanke (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-14)
      Det er gjort mye forskning på hvilke innvirkninger småbarnsforeldres mobilbruk kan ha på forelder-barn-interaksjoner og potensielt barns utvikling. Færre studier har undersøkt foreldres holdninger til mobilbruk og blant norske populasjoner er forskningen knapp. Vi gjennomførte en kvalitativ studie med semistrukturerte intervjuer for å undersøke hvilke holdninger småbarnsforeldre har rundt sin egen ...
    • Forholdet mellom foreldres telefonbruk og oppfattet relasjonskvalitet: En experience sampling studie 

      Hanssen, Martin Kristoffer; Mørk, Pia Stoltenberg (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-14)
      Foreldres telefonbruk i samvær med barn øker, og tidligere studier antyder at dette kan ha negative konsekvenser for foreldre-barn relasjonen. Formålet med denne studien var å gi økt kunnskap om hva foreldre bruker telefonen til, hvor distraherte de ble av de ulike aktivitetene, samt hvordan telefonbruken påvirket relasjonen til barnet. Vi brukte experience sampling-metoden til å samle inn data om ...
    • Metakognisjonen bak valg av studietaktikker hos "Elitestudenter". -En kvalitativ studie 

      Karlsson, Annie-Justicia (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-14)
      Media har de siste årene laget dokumentarer og skrevet en del artikler både i avisa og på internettet om studenter som går et såkalt ”elitestudium” (Medisin, juss, eller psykologi profesjon). Denne type omtalen har bemerket seg hos meg, da det gir et inntrykk om at disse studenter på noen måte er annerledes enn andre studenter. Selv om det ikke er forbeholdt ”elitestudier”, er det høye krav for å ...
