University students are considered to be at a risk sta…
Challenges and added value of measuring embodied variables in psychotherapy
2022
Research on embodied aspects of clinical encounters is growing, but discussion on the premises of including embodied variables in empirical research is scarce. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that embodied aspects of psychotherapy interaction are vital in developing a therapeutic alliance, and these should be considered to better understand the change process in psychotherapy. However, the field is still debating which methods should be used and which features of the embodied aspects are relevant in the clinical context. The field lacks methodological consistency as well as a theoretical model. In the Relational Mind research project, we have studied the embodied aspects of interaction…
Sammenhengen mellom organisert idrettsdeltakelse, opplevd tilhørighet og psykologisk distress blant norske ungdommer : en ett-års oppfølgingsstudie
2016
Masteroppgave i folkehelsevitenskap – Universitetet i Agder 2016 The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sports participation, sense of belonging and psychological distress in a sample of Norwegian adolescents during a one-year period. We also wanted investigate the potential mediating effect of sense of belonging on the relationship between the degree of sports participation and psychological distress one year later. This longitudinal study is part of a larger project called "the Relevance of Physical Activity Contexts in Every-Day Life of Adolescents" (REPAC). This study is based on data collections made in spring 2014 (N = 3049) and 2015 (N = 2890) where student…

Familial and Parental Predictors of Physical Activity in Late Adolescence: Prospective Analysis over a Two-Year Period
2021
Children’s health behaviors are highly influenced by their parents and family. This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the parental/familial factors associated with physical activity levels (PALs) among older adolescents. The participants were 766 adolescents, who were prospectively observed at baseline (when they were 16 years of age), at first follow-up measurement (FU1
The relationship between skin conductance and eye contact of spouses in couple therapy
2017
Katsekontaktin ja ihon sähkönjohtavuuden välistä yhteyttä on tutkittu aiemminkin, mutta tutkimusta ei ole tehty monitoimijaisessa terapiatilanteessa. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarkastella ihon sähkönjohtavuuden ja katsekontaktin välistä yhteyttä pariterapiassa pariskunnan välisen synkronian kautta, ja lisäksi selvittää, kuinka ihon sähkönjohtavuus muuttuu katsekontaktin eri hetkinä: ennen kuin katsekontakti alkaa, sen alkamishetkellä, ja alkamishetken jälkeen. Oletuksena oli, että ihon sähkönjohtavuuden vasteet nousevat katsekontaktin alkuhetkellä. Lisäksi tarkasteltiin, onko miehillä ja naisilla eroa ihon sähkönjohtavuuden vasteissa. Tutkimuksen otos koostui 11 pariskunnasta, joi…
Synthesis and Antitumor Evaluation of Menthone-Derived Pyrimidine-Urea Compounds as Potential PI3K/Akt/mTOR Signaling Pathway Inhibitor.
2022
A series of novel menthone derivatives bearing pyrimidine and urea moieties was designed and synthesized to explore more potent natural product-derived antitumor agents. The structures of the target compounds were confirmed by FTIR, NMR, and HRMS. The in vitro antitumor activity was tested by standard methyl thiazolytetrazolium assay and showed that 4i, 4g, 4s, and 4m are the best compounds with IC50 values of 6.04 ± 0.62µM, 3.21 ± 0.67µM, 19.09 ± 0.49µM, and 18.68 ± 1.53µM, against Hela, MGC-803, MCF-7, and A549, respectively. The results of the preliminary action mechanism studies showed that compound 4i, the representative compound, could induce cell apoptosis in Hela cells in a dose-dep…
