      Nemtcan, Efim; Sæle, Rannveig Grøm; Gamst-Klaussen, Thor; Svartdal, Frode (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2020-12-23)
      Academic attrition is a worldwide problem representing a significant economic loss and a disadvantage for students in terms of health and career prospects. We focus on the roles of academic skills, academic self-efficacy, and students' integration in exploring their relation to attrition intentions. Based on existing research, we expected a negative relation between academic skills and attrition ...
    • Safety in Avalanche Terrain: A mixed method study on how Norwegian backcountry skiers plan, conduct and evaluate trips 

      Stette Haarberg, Ingrid (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-05-04)
      Every year backcountry skiers are victims of avalanches, and human errors are recognized as one of the most important factors in explaining why these accidents happen. We used an embedded mixed method design, in which the qualitative data was given priority, in order to investigate how backcountry skiers plan, conduct and evaluate trips in avalanche terrain. In all, a sample of 23 backcountry skiers ...

      Rui, Mira (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-05-01)
      Vi undersøkte om mediers fremstilling av debatten rundt oljeutvinning kan påvirke følelsesmessige opplevelse av lofotnatur. I en eksperimentell del av studien ble en randomisert halvdel av deltakerne presentert for avisoverskrifter som var positive til oljeutvinning i Lofoten. Den andre halvparten ble presentert for overskrifter som var negative. Deltakerne rapportere enighet eller uenighet med ...
    • Aberrant uncertainty processing is linked to psychotic‑like experiences, autistic traits, and is reflected in pupil dilation during probabilistic learning 

      Kreis, Isabel; Zhang, Lei; Mittner, Matthias Bodo; Syla, Leonard Parks; Claus, Lamm; Pfuhl, Gerit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-28)
      Aberrant belief updating due to misestimation of uncertainty and an increased perception of the world as volatile (i.e., unstable) has been found in autism and psychotic disorders. Pupil dilation tracks events that warrant belief updating, likely reflecting the adjustment of neural gain. However, whether subclinical autistic or psychotic symptoms affect this adjustment and how they relate to learning ...

    • Modified prolonged exposure therapy as Early Intervention after Rape (The EIR-study): study protocol for a multicenter randomized add-on superiority trial 

      Haugen, Tina; Halvorsen, Joar Øveraas; Friborg, Oddgeir; Simpson, Melanie Rae; Mork, Paul Jarle; Mikkelsen, Gustav; Elklit, Ask; Rothbaum, Barbara O.; Schei, Berit; Hagemann, Cecilie Therese (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-21)
      Background Sexual assault and rape are the traumatic life events with the highest probability for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which can have devastating consequences for those aficted by the condition. Studies indicate that modifed prolonged exposure (mPE) therapy may be efective in preventing the development of PTSD in recently traumatized individuals, and especially for people who ...
    • Situational Cues in Thoughts About the Future: Relationships With Self-Reported and Actual Self-Regulation Success 

      Kristiansen, Ingar Mikkola; Martiny-Huenger, Torsten; Parks-Stamm, Elizabeth J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-10)
      Based on stimulus–response learning accounts, we argue that including situational cues in thought about intended actions is an important aspect of self-regulation success in general and in successfully implementing delayed intentions. Accordingly, in Study 1 (N = 328), we replicate a previous study and show a positive relationship between the self-reported inclusion of situational cues in thoughts ...
    • Effects of instagram sports posts on the athletic motivation of female elite athletes: Do they inspire or backfire? 

      Weber, Silvana; Olsen, Marte; Martiny, Sarah E. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021-10-08)
      The social networking site Instagram provides users with an abundance of photos and information in many domains including sports. The posts are often intended to inspire and motivate users. We argue that the display of success and failure of professional athletes may influence elite athletes’ own sports ambitions. Research has shown that exposure to positive ingroup stereotypes and exposure to ...

      Borda, Miguel Germán; Ferreira, Daniel; Selnes, Per; Tovar-Rios, Diego Alejandro; Jaramillo-Jiménez, Alberto; Kirsebom, Bjørn-Eivind; Garcia-Cifuentes, Elkin; Dalaker, Turi Olene; Oppedal, Ketil; Sønnesyn, Hogne; Fladby, Tormod; Aarsland, Dag (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2022-04)
      <p><i>Introduction:</i> Early markers of neurodegeneration provide an opportunity to detect, monitor, and initiate interventions in individuals who have an increased risk of developing dementia. Here, we investigated whether the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is associated with early brain neurodegeneration and whether the TUG test could be a marker of cognitive decline in people with subjective cognitive ...
    • Note to first-year university students: Just do it! In the end, the fact that you study may be more important than how you study. 

      Sæle, Rannveig Grøm; Dahl, Tove I.; Sørlie, Tore; Friborg, Oddgeir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-20)
      Education is important to society, yet many students do not complete the educations they start. In the present study of 426 students at a Norwegian university, we examined the predictive value of study-related variables with regard to student status one and five years after initial enrollment (stayers versus dropouts). The logistic regression analyses indicated that older students and students who ...
    • Neuroendocrinology of sexual behavior 

      Ågmo, Anders j (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-08)
      One of the consequences of sexual behavior is reproduction. Thus, this behavior is essential for the survival of the species. However, the individual engaged in sexual behavior is rarely aware of its reproductive consequences. In fact, the human is probably the only species in which sexual acts may be performed with the explicit purpose of reproduction. Most human sexual activities as well as sex ...
    • Sharing food with infants in Hadza communities in Tanzania 

      Abels, Monika; Osokina, Marianna; Kilale, Andrew Martin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-28)
      By analyzing mealtime interactions of Tanzanian Hadza infants with their interactional partners, we explored how two foundational schemas, namely giving/sharing and autonomy are realized and fostered in infants. We focused on three aspects of the mealtime interactions, namely how the infants’ share was protected, whether independent eating was fostered by the infants’ interactional partners, and ...
    • Should I Stay or Should I Go? The Role of Daily Presenteeism as an Adaptive Response to Perform at Work Despite Somatic Complaints for Employee Effectiveness 

      Rivkin, Wladislaw; Diestel, Stefan; Gerpott, Fabiola H.; Unger, Dana (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Our study seeks to contribute to scholarly understanding of the antecedents and consequences of the crucial, but so far overlooked within-person daily fluctuations in presenteeism. Drawing on theoretical frameworks of presenteeism, which conceptualize presenteeism as an adaptive behavior to deliver work performance despite limitations due to ill-health, we develop a within-person model of daily ...
    • Methods for Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback (HRVB): A Systematic Review and Guidelines 

      Lalanza, Jaume F; Lorente, Sonia; Bullich, Raimon; García, Carlos; Losilla, Josep-Maria; Capdevila, Lluis (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-14)
      Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback (HRVB) has been widely used to improve cardiovascular health and well-being. HRVB is based on breathing at an individual’s resonance frequency, which stimulates respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) and the baroreflex. There is, however, no methodological consensus on how to apply HRVB, while details about the protocol used are often not well reported. Thus, the ...
    • Gendered self-views across 62 countries: A test of competing models 

      Kosakowska-Berezecka, Natasza; Bosson, Jennifer K.; Jurek, Paweł; Besta, Tomasz; Olech, Michał; Vandello, Joseph A.; Bender, Michael; Dandy, Justine; Hoorens, Vera; Jasinskaja-Lahti, Inga; Mankowski, Eric; Venäläinen, Satu; Abuhamdeh, Sami; Agyemang, Collins Badu; Akbaş, Gülçin; Nihan, Albayrak-Aydemir; Ammirati, Soline; Anderson, Joel; Anjum, Gulnaz; Ariyanto, Amarina; Aruta, John Jamir Benzon R.; Ashraf, Mujeeba; Bakaitytė, Aistė; Becker, Maja; Bertolli, Chiara; Bërxulli, Dashamir; Best, Deborah L.; Bi, Chongzeng; Block, Katharina; Boehnke, Mandy; Bongiorno, Renata; Bosak, Janine; Casini, Annalisa; Chen, Qingwei; Chi, Peilian; Adoric, Vera Cubela; Daalmans, Serena; Soledad, De Lemus; Dhakal, Sandesh; Dvorianchikov, Nikolay; Egami, Sonoko; Etchezahar, Edgardo; Esteves, Carla Sofia; Yzerbyt, Vincent; Martiny, Sarah E.; Yang, Yaping; Zanello, Valeska; Zapata-Calve, Antonella Ludmila; Zawisza, Magdalena; Žukauskienė, Rita; Żadkowska, Magdalena (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-07)
      Social role theory posits that binary gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in less egalitarian countries, reflecting these countries’ more pronounced sex-based power divisions. Conversely, evolutionary and self-construal theorists suggest that gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in more egalitarian countries, reflecting the greater autonomy support and flexible ...
    • Mind-wandering: mechanistic insights from lesion, tDCS, and iEEG 

      Kam, Julia W.Y.; Mittner, Matthias; Knight, Robert T (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-24)
      Cognitive neuroscience has witnessed a surge of interest in investigating the neural correlates of the mind when it drifts away from an ongoing task and the external environment. To that end, functional neuroimaging research has consistently implicated the default mode network (DMN) and frontoparietal control network (FPCN) in mind-wandering. Yet, it remains unknown which subregions within these ...
    • A multi-lab test of the facial feedback hypothesis by the Many Smiles Collaboration 

      Coles, Nicholas A.; March, David S.; Marmolejo-Ramos, Fernando; Larsen, Jeff T.; Arinze, Nwadiogo C.; Ndukaihe, Izuchukwu L.

      Following theories of emotional embodiment, the facial feedback hypothesis suggests that individuals’ subjective experiences of emotion are influenced by their facial expressions. However, evidence for this hypothesis has been mixed. We thus formed a global adversarial collaboration and carried out a preregistered, multicentre study designed to specify and test the conditions that should most reliably ...
    • Prior Action Direction of a Novel Agent Cues Spatial Attention in 7-Month-Old Infants 

      Wronski, Caroline; Hernik, Mikoaj; Daum, Moritz M. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-13)
      The present study investigated whether 7-month-old infants attribute directionality to an object after having observed it engage in agentive behavior and whether they maintain this attribution even when the agent is presented statically. Infants were familiarized with an object displaying either agentive behavioral cues (self-propelled, context-sensitive movement) or non-agentive motion (the same ...
