Socioeconomic differences in the use of alcohol and drunkenness in adolescents: Trends in the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study in Finla…
2018
Aims: The aims of this study were to explore time-based trends of socioeconomic differences in alcohol use and drunkenness in Finnish adolescents from 1990 to 2014 and to investigate the significance of two indicators in detecting socioeconomic differences in alcohol use and drunkenness. Methods: Data were retrieved from seven surveys conducted as part of the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study in Finland from 1990 to 2014. The alcohol use and drunkenness of 15-year-old students, as well as socioeconomic status, including educational aspiration and perceived family wealth, were assessed via a self-report questionnaire. Logistic regression models were used to investigate t…
A Novel Pathophysiological Mechanism Contributing to Trigeminal Neuralgia
2016
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a form of neuropathic pain that affects the fifth cranial nerve, the most widely distributed nerve in the head. Although TN has been associated with a variety of pathological conditions, neurovascular compression on the trigeminal nerve, as it exits the brain stem, is the most frequent reported cause. This compression provides a progressive demyelination of the nerve and a subsequent aberrant neural transmission. Although several studies have clarified some physiopathological mechanisms underlying TN, the molecular basis remains vague. Very recently the substitution of methionine 136 by valine (MET126Val) in sodium channel Nav1.6 in a case study of typical TN ha…
On the mechanism of imine elimination from Fischer tungsten carbene complexes
2016
(Aminoferrocenyl)(ferrocenyl)carbene(pentacarbonyl)tungsten(0) (CO)5W=C(NHFc)Fc (W(CO)5(E-2)) is synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of the ethoxy group of (CO)5W=C(OEt)Fc (M(CO)5(1Et)) by ferrocenyl amide Fc-NH– (Fc = ferrocenyl). W(CO)5(E-2) thermally and photochemically eliminates bulky E-1,2-diferrocenylimine (E-3) via a formal 1,2-H shift from the N to the carbene C atom. Kinetic and mechanistic studies to the formation of imine E-3 are performed by NMR, IR and UV–vis spectroscopy and liquid injection field desorption ionization (LIFDI) mass spectrometry as well as by trapping experiments for low-coordinate tungsten complexes with triphenylphosphane. W(CO)5(E-2) decays thermally i…
Työn tuunaamisen profiilit sosiaali- ja terveysalan organisaatiossa : yhteydet työhyvinvointiin
2021
Työn tuunaaminen on oma-aloitteista työn kehittämistä työn voimavaroja ja vaatimuksia muokkaamalla. Tutkimme, millaisia tuunausprofiileja voidaan löytää kolmesta erilaisesta tuunaustavasta, jotka olivat työn voimavarojen lisääminen, työn vaatimusten lisääminen ja työn vaatimusten optimoiminen. Selvitimme myös, miten työhyvinvointi vaihtelee profiileissa. Sähköiseen kyselyyn osallistui 1 024 sosiaali- ja terveysalan organisaation työntekijää. K-keskiarvojen klusterianalyysin avulla tunnistimme neljä työn tuunaamisen profiilia: aktiiviset tuunaajat (19 %, monipuolinen tuunaaminen), optimoivat tuunaajat (21 %, työn vaatimusten optimointi), passiiviset tuunaajat (27 %, keskimääräistä vähemmän t…
Læringspotensial i en digital interaktiv matematikkundervisning : en analyse av læringspotensialet i geometriundervisningen på 8. trinn med utstrakt …
2016
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 The theme of this master thesis is learning potential in mathematical tasks designed for geometry teaching in GeoGebra in 8th grade. This thesis is written in connection to the project Digital interactive mathematics teaching (DIM), where the goal is to create innovative mathematics teaching by using digital tools in a pedagogic context. Previous research has documented that students learning outcome of the teaching is largely influenced and limited by the tasks that are given. In this context analysis of the tasks learning potential is particular interesting. Therefore, my research question is: What learning potential is it in …
Den Virtuelle Matematikkskolen - Ungdomstrinnet : En studie av hvilke pedagogiske konsekvenser bruk av nettressursen DVM-U kan føre med seg
2016
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 Many lower secondary school students struggle with mathematics and with motivation in the subject. To improve student achievement and motivation in mathematics, The Norwegian Centre for ICT in Education and The Norwegian Centre for Mathematics Education have developed an online learning resource that contains mathematical examples, exercises and games, called The Virtual School of Mathematics – Lower Secondary (DVM-U). The Norwegian Centre for ICT in Education suggest that DVM-U can be used in preparation of a topic, or as something students can work with if they do not benefit on a satisfactory level from the classroom teaching…
Tilpasset opplæring i matematikk på ungdomsskolen : to læreres begrunnelser for sine tilpasninger
2016
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 The theme of this thesis is adapted education with an emphasis on adapting the teaching of mathematics. I have also decided to direct my attention toward students with low attainers. My research question is: "What arguments gives two mathematics teachers in their adaptations in teaching students with low attainers in middle school?" The study discusses how teachers adapt lessons to students with low attainers in the subject. The empirical basically are two mathematics teachers who teach in the same middle school. In this study I have used qualitative methods. The data is collected through a semi-structured interview. The aim has…
Ungdomsskoleelevers bruk av symboler i algebra
2016
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 The thesis investigates the challenges students in 10th grade face while learning algebra, algebraic symbols and how they assess the subject. With the use of a theoretical test and semistructured interviews, the thesis aims to answer the following research questions: 1. What challenges do students from lower secondary education encounter while learning algebra? 2. How do these students engage with algebra and what are their views and aspects towards the subject? The thesis serves primarily as a qualitative case study, of three students from lower secondary school. In addition, quantitative research methods have been undertaken b…
Pytagoras si setning på 10. trinn : ei analyse av tre lærebøkers framstilling og ein elevs bruk av ei av lærebøkene
2016
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 This text answers two research questions. The first research question is about how three different textbooks for grade 10 presents the Pythagorean theorem through different representations. These representations are geometric, algebraic and textual. The textbooks are Tetra, Faktor and Maximum. The precision of individual representations and the precision between representations is studied. The chronology in the presentation of the representations has also been studied. The conclusion is that the textbooks have different presentations of the Pythagorean theorem. A geometric representation is presented first in all three textbooks…
