(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12)Resilience is the ability to cope with change. The concept of resilience originating in the natural sciences has been applied in a variety of disciplines, from physics through ecology and social ecology to psychology and cultural studies. In public library research, very little resilience research has been conducted. The derived concepts of community resilience and information resilience have been ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-12)In The Wild Duck the struggle for existence is humorously referred to in the dialogue:<p> <p>FRU SØRBY.

Examining the contribution of markedness to the L2 processing of Spanish person agreement: An event-related potentials study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-10)We used event-related potentials to investigate how markedness impacts person agreement in English-speaking learners of L2-Spanish. Markedness was examined by probing agreement with both first-person (marked) and third-person (unmarked) subjects. Agreement was manipulated by crossing first-person subjects with third-person verbs and vice-versa. Native speakers showed a P600 for both errors, larger ... -
The effect of bilingualism on brain development from early childhood to young adulthood.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-20)Bilingualism afects the structure of the brain in adults, as evidenced by experience-dependent grey and white matter changes in brain structures implicated in language learning, processing, and control. However, limited evidence exists on how bilingualism may infuence brain development. We examined the developmental patterns of both grey and white matter structures in a cross-sectional study of ... -
Vi må halde kontakten med russiske intellektuelle
(Chronicle; Kronikk, 2022-03-18)Krigen i Ukraina har til fulle vist kva slags regime vi har i vårt største granneland.

Eg vil argumentere for at det ikkje er klokt. Eg vil ... -
Vi må halde kontakten med russiske akademikarar og intellektuelle
(Chronicle; Kronikk, 2022-03-19)«Eit kvart folk, og særleg det russiske, vil klare å skilje ekte patriotar frå avskum og forrædarar og kjem ganske enkelt til å spytte dei ut som eit insekt som tilfeldigvis har hamna i munnen.» <p> <p>Med disse orda vende den russiske presidenten seg til folket i Russland for nokre dagar sidan. Språket er grovt, og meldinga er klar: Har du kontakt med vesten, skal det gå deg ille.<p> <p>Krigen ... -
Fire forslag for forskningssamarbeid med Russland
(Chronicle; Kronikk, 2022-03-25)Norske myndigheter har bestemt at vi skal fryse samarbeid på institusjonsnivå. Samtidig har myndighetene gjort det klart at Norge ikke deltar i noen akademisk boikott. Hvordan navigerer vi i denne gråsonen? -
Variable V2 in Norwegian Heritage Language: An effect of crosslinguistic influence?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-28)This paper discusses possible attrition of verb second (V2) word order in Norwegian heritage language by investigating a corpus of spontaneous speech produced by 50 2nd–4th generation heritage speakers in North America. The study confirms previous findings that V2 word order is generally stable in heritage situations, but nevertheless finds approximately 10% V2 violations. The cases of non-V2 word ... -
Un cardinal 'y medio': adjetivos y cuantificadores
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)Pese a los estudios que tratan el tema de la cuantificación mediante numerales en español, existe una cuestión que está poco investigada: las construcciones de cardinal y valor fraccionario (un libro y medio, un kilo y cuarto). El objetivo de este trabajo es arrojar algo de luz sobre sus propiedades sintácticas y semánticas, con atención especial a las construcciones con y medio, que presentan ... -
Language shift and language (re)vitalisation: the roles played by women and men in Northern Fenno-Scandia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-31)The research question of the present paper is the following: to what degree (if any) is gender relevant as an explanatory factor in, firstly, the process of assimilation and later, the process of (re)vitalisation of indigenous and minority languages in northern Fenno-Scandia (the North Calotte)? The assimilation of the ethnic groups in question was a process initiated and lead by the authorities in ... -
When Three is Company: The Relation Between Aspect and Metaphor in Russian Aspectual Triplets
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-27)The focus of the present study is the relation between metaphor and aspect: are certain grammatical forms more prone to be used metaphorically? We approach this issue through a puzzling case of Russian aspectual triplets. The study is based on the distributions of the unprefixed imperfective verb gruzit’ (IPFV1) ‘load’, its perfective counterparts (PFVs) and prefixed secondary imperfectives (IPFV2s) ... -
Stem Alternations in the Passive in Sierra Miwok
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)Central Sierra Miwok (CSM; Freeland1951) is described as having root-and-template morphology (for a recent approach and further references, see Downing 2006). There are four stem forms, referred to by number, and identified by their place in the conjugational paradigms. The exact form of each stem depends on the phonological shape of the root, specifically whether it contains two or three consonants ... -
Bilingualism and Aging: Implications for (Delaying) Neurocognitive Decline
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-02)As a result of advances in healthcare, the worldwide average life expectancy is steadily increasing. However, this positive trend has societal and individual costs, not least because greater life expectancy is linked to higher incidence of age-related diseases, such as dementia. Over the past few decades, research has isolated various protective “healthy lifestyle” factors argued to contribute ... -
Bilingual experience affects white matter integrity across the lifespan
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-25)Bilingualism has been associated with increases in compensatory mechanisms to age-related neurocognitive decline thus delaying dementia symptom onset and leading to a more favorable trajectory of neurocognitive aging. However, most research to date has examined bilingualism-induced effects on neurocognition within older age ranges or young adults – with middle-aged individuals typically not being ... -

Листи Івана Зілинського до Олафа Брока: невідома сторінка українсько-норвезьких наукових стосунків
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021)This article proceeds investigating the archive of the first Norwegian Professor of Slavic languages Olaf Broch and is particularly focused on several letters sent by the Ukrainian linguist Ivan Zilyns’kyi. It is known that the Norwegian professor Broch and Ukrainian student Zilyns’kyi met in Vienna in 1905, but it remained suprisingly unknown they corresponded for 43 years until now.

"There is (almost) 0 knowledge about CLIL" - CLIL på andre sprog end engelsk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021-12)Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) findes kun i meget begrænset omfang på andre sprog end engelsk. Der arbejdes sjældent med overgange mellem uddannelsesniveauer, og CLIL forbindes næsten aldrig med en flersprogethedsdidaktik. Sådan kan man lidt groft sammenfatte resultaterne fra en spørgeskemaundersøgelse, som blev besvaret i foråret 2021 af eksperter fra 29 lande. -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-11)Propaganda hadde stor betydning i den tyske nasjonalsosialismen, og i denne sammenheng var pressen et viktig redskap. Det ble derfor etablert tyske aviser i de okkuperte områdene. Denne artikkelen tar for seg representasjoner av nordmenn over tid i en av disse avisene i Norge: Deutsche Polarzeitung, senere Polar-Kurier, utgitt i Tromsø 9. februar 1941–6. mai 1945. Jeg viser at fremstillingene av ...
