Circadian clock period length is not consistently linked to chronotype in a wild songbird
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-10)Circadian clock properties vary between individuals and relate to variation in entrained timing in captivity. How this variation translates into behavioural differences in natural settings, however, is poorly understood. Here, we tested in great tits whether variation in the free-running period length (tau) under constant dim light (LL) was linked to the phase angle of the entrained rhythm (“ ... -

The decline of feminine gender: a cross-dialectal study of seven Norwegian dialects
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-26)This paper presents a cross-dialectal study of grammatical gender in Norwegian nominal phrases. Specifically, we investigate the decline of the feminine gender in three age groups across seven different dialects. The dialects vary in their morphological richness of gender marking: some dialects traditionally have more distinctive marking of the feminine gender. With an elicited production ... -
The use of the Research Ethics cards for enhancing reflexivity: Case study on detection of microplastics in salmon
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-09-03)Over the past ten years, the concept of Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) has gained visibility, both in policy context as well as within academic discussions concerning science and technology. Research funding bodies in Norway do now include RRI as a requirement in calls for funding, especially in emerging technologies projects. However, the concept of RRI has been criticized for its unclarity ... -

Gross Primary Production of Antarctic Landfast Sea Ice: A Model-Based Estimate
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-04)Much of the Antarctic coast is covered by seasonal landfast sea ice (fast ice), which serves as an important habitat for ice algae. Fast-ice algae provide a key early season food source for pelagic and benthic food webs, and contribute to biogeochemical cycling in Antarctic coastal ecosystems. Summertime fast ice is undergoing a decline, leading to more seasonal fast ice with unknown impacts on ... -
Electric field gradients at the nuclei from all-electron four-component relativistic density functional theory using Gaussian-type orbitals
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-23)We present an all-electron, four-component relativistic implementation of electric field gradients (EFGs) at the nuclei using Gaussian-type orbitals and periodic boundary conditions. This allows us to include relativistic effects variationally, which is important for compounds containing heavy elements and for a property dependent on the electronic structure close to the nuclei. The all-electron ... -
Comparative study of fatty acid composition of muscles of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua Linnaeus, 1758) with natural diet and feeding near salmon farms
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-04)Coastal aquaculture and local fisheries interact in shared marine environments, influencing each other synergistically and/or antagonistically. Salmon farming, notably with open-net sea cages along the Norwegian coast, attracts wild fish due to increased food availability from uneaten feed, but it also exposes wild fish to farm emissions like waste and toxic chemicals (de-lice treatments, antifouling ... -
With the best intentions: Implications on self-determination during Covid-19 restrictions
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-05-30)Background: In times of crisis, the interests of the individual might be sacrificed for the health and safety of others. The aim of this study was to explore the situation under Covid-19 for persons with intellectual disabilities, focusing on implications on the right to self-determination within health protection.<p> <p>Method: To understand how the relevant legal framework was governed by ... -
Multiplicative and additive interactions between risk factors for coronary heart disease
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-02)There are a series of well-established risk factors of coronary heart disease (CHD): hypertension, high total cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, older age and male sex [1]. Some studies have paid attention to interactions between them, but have mainly looked at multiplicative interactions with age and/or sex. For example, relative risks associated with many risk factors are larger at younger compared ... -
Increasing physical activity through an adapted web-based exercise program for people with intellectual disabilities: Support staff are crucial for feasibility
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-17)Background: People with intellectual disabilities are less physically active and suffer from ill-health more than the general population. Support staff play an important role in the person's life. This study aimed to explore the support staff's experiences regarding the feasibility of adapted web-based exercise for people with intellectual disabilities.<p> <p>Method: Participants with intellectual ... -
When multilingualism is more than three: On the nature of gender transfer in L3+ acquisition
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-29)In this article we investigate transfer in the ab-initio acquisition of grammatical gender in two groups of multilingual learners. The first group knows two gender languages (German and French), which can potentially act as transfer sources; the second group knows three (German, French and Italian). Both groups had to assign gender to nouns in Franco-Provençal, a Romance language which is new ... -
Frequent contacts to Emergency Medical Services (EMS): more than frequent callers
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-12)Background A frequent caller is defined by The Frequent Caller National Network (FreCaNN) as an adult who makes five or more emergency calls in a month or twelve or more in three months, related to individual episodes of care. However, we believe that when limiting the definition to those who call themselves, one underestimates the impact frequent contacts have on the Emergency Medical Communication ... -
Cognitive and inflammatory heterogeneity in severe mental illness: Translating findings from blood to brain
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-08)Recent findings link cognitive impairment and inflammatory-immune dysregulation in schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar (BD) spectrum disorders. However, heterogeneity and translation between the periphery and central (blood-to-brain) mechanisms remains a challenge. Starting with a large SZ, BD and healthy control cohort (n = 1235), we aimed to i) identify candidate peripheral markers (n = 25) associated ... -

Workplace democracy: The argument from the worker–society relation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-22)Numerous arguments have been offered for workplace democracy, that is, the idea that employees should have an equal say in governing the firm. Lately, relational arguments, particularly of a republican and relational egalitarian kind, have become prominent. These claim that workers should have a say in how their firm is governed in order to avoid objectionable, for example, dominating or ... -
Long-term changes in taxonomic and functional composition of European marine fish communities
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-22)Evidence of large-scale biodiversity degradation in marine ecosystems has been reported worldwide, yet most research has focused on few species of interest or on limited spatiotemporal scales. Here we assessed the spatial and temporal changes in the taxonomic and functional composition of fish communities in European seas over the last 25 years (1994–2019). We then explored how these community changes ...
