Digital Film Preservation: The Search for the Original
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-12)The transition from photochemical to digital has without doubt profoundly affected filmmaking and film distribution.

The advantages of digitization of film are obvious: the audience gets easy access to a digital copy and, at the same time, the photochemical original (or what is left ... -

Etternamnssystemet i bygd og by på slutten av 1800-talet - ei samanlikning av Hamar, Stange og Romedal
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-03-07)I denne artikkelen vil eg samanlikne etternamnssystemet i Hamar, Stange og Romedal slik det var på slutten av 1800-talet. Ettersom Hamar er ein by, og Stange og Romedal landkommunar, vil denne un-dersøkinga samtidig innebera ei kontrastering mellom bygd og by (jf. overskrifta). -
Byron´s Corsair and the Boundaries of Sympathy
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-02)Contemporary reviewers of Byron’s work often noted his skill in cultivating sympathy for outlaw figures – a skill that was admired, but also worried over since it implied sympathy’s independence from a moral code. Recent scholarship about sympathy in the Romantic period has not focused much on Byron, but this essay highlights acomplexity and originality in his invocation of sympathy that has been ... -

Krigen i Ukraina: det språklege bakteppet
(Chronicle; Kronikk, 2022)Når den russiske presidenten hevdar at Ukraina høyrer heime i det russiske imperiet, viser han mellom anna til språklege tilhøve. Ukrainsk er ikkje noko eige språk, blir det sagt. Dei færraste språkvetarar vil vere samde i dette. La oss sjå nærmare på dei faktiske forholda. Korleis er slektskapen mellom ukrainsk og russisk? Kor ulike er dei to språka? Korleis har forholdet mellom ukrainsk og russisk ... -
Recycling in Babel: The Impact of Foreign Languages in Rule Learning
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-27)Environmental decisions and prosocial behaviors have been shown to be emotionally mediated, and language is at the core of emotions. The language context can alter the way decisions are made, and using a foreign language tends to favor an analytic approach to the decision and reduce its emotional resonance. In the present work, we explored whether or not the strategic use of a native vs. a non-native ... -
Working Paper: Progressive Cities: Urban-rural polarisation of social values and economic development around the world
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01)In contrast to the conservative values of rural populations, cities are often seen as bulwarks of liberal, progressive values. This urban-rural divide in values has become one of the major fault lines in western democracies, underpinning major political events of the last decade, not least the election of Donald Trump. Yet, beyond a small number of countries, there is little evidence that cities ... -
Individual differences in bilingual word recognition: The role of experiential factors and word frequency in cross-language lexical priming
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-22)In studies of bilingual word recognition with masked priming, first language (L1) primes activate their second language (L2) translation equivalents in lexical decision tasks, but effects in the opposite direction are weaker (Wen & van Heuven, 2017). This study seeks to clarify the relative weight of stimulus-level (frequency) and individual-level (L2 proficiency, L2 exposure/use) factors in the ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-12)The Circumpolar North has been changing rapidly within the last decades, and the socioeconomic systems of the Eurasian Arctic and Siberia in particular have displayed the most dramatic changes. Here, anthropogenic drivers of environmental change such as migration and industrialization are added to climateinduced changes in the natural environment such as permafrost thawing and increased frequency ... -
It Takes a Village: Using Network Science to Identify the Effect of Individual Differences in Bilingual Experience for Theory of Mind
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-09)An increasing amount of research has examined the effects of bilingualism on performance in theory of mind (ToM) tasks. Bilinguals outperform monolinguals in ToM when comparing groups. However, it is unclear what aspects of the bilingual experience contribute to this effect in a dynamic construct like ToM. To date, bilingualism has been conceptualized as a dichotic skill that is distinct from ... -
Future directions in examining neurological adaptation to bilingual experiences
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-16)In recent years, research examining the neurocognitive effects of bilingualism has undergone a shift in focus towards examining the neurocognitive effects of individual differences within specific aspects of language experience. The DeLuca et al study advances this direction in showing a specificity of neural adaptations to separate aspects of language experience. However, this approach is an early ... -

A Note on Resilience Perspectives in Public Library Research: Paths Towards Research Agendas
(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.

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 ...
