The Four Dimensions of Embodiment and the Experience of Illness
2018
In this paper I will try to systematically lay out and describe the multiple dimensions of the embodied experience of illness, which until recently has been the main focus within the field of the phenomenology of medicine. In order to do this, I will turn to analysis of the nature of embodiment in Husserl’s phenomenology. I will argue that based on Husserl’s phenomenology of the body, one can distinguish four ways of experiencing one’s body, or four dimensions of embodiment. I will distinguish between experience of one’s body as 1) a bearer of sensations (the affective dimension of embodiment); 2) a seat of free movement, characterized by the faculty of “I can” (the functional dimension of …
From research question to dissemination: how to design, analyse and present study results
2018
Today, the term “study” is very frequently used in quite a broad sense: survey, clinical trial, analysis, research and other terms with deeply different meanings are often generally indicated as “studies”. A “study” can be generally defined as a process composed of several actions aimed to verify one or more hypotheses (objectives), with the ultimate goal of sharing the answers (results) with a target audience, in the form of a scientific paper, presentation or poster.
Empathy in children practising judo compared to their non-practicing peers
2019
[EN] Many authors dealing with martial arts and combat sports indicate that this form of activity contributes to limiting aggressive behavior towards other people. Contemporary psychological and pedagogical knowledge explains that empathy is one of the factors that determines a friendly and aggression-free attitude of people towards others. This study we compared the level of empathy between children practicing judo for a minimum of two years and their peers who did not practiced any martial art. Results showed higher levels of empathy in the group of judo practitioners. Judo trainers also agreed that judo participation may improve children’s emotional development (emotional self-regulation…
Development of basic psychological need satisfaction in physical education
2019
Research shows that sports-active students experience more basic need satisfaction (autonomy, competence, relatedness) in physical education (PE) than their non-sports-active peers, and thus, reap most of the benefits of PE. This study aimed to investigate the role of a two-year PE programme, referred to as Interest-based PE, in contributing to students’ basic need satisfaction in PE, and in particular, to assess potential basic needs-benefits among students who were not involved in leisure-time sport. Among 693 students, 348 were offered a choice of two different PE approaches (“explorative” vs. “sports” approach) for the next two years, while the remaining students continued to receive tr…
The choral conductor's competence, education, and practice – an emerging meta-theory
2020
Korsang har en fremtredende posisjon i Skandinavia. Alle de ulike korene som finnes – fra barnekor til seniorkor, fra hygge-kor til profesjonelle kor – trenger korledere. Korlederen må mestre et omfattende kompetansesett i det hun eller han virker som både musiker, leder og pedagog. Forfatterne har de siste årene gjennomført en rekke studier av korlederes utdanning og praksis, som involverer varierte tilnærminger både når det gjelder metoder og materiale. På grunn av begrensningene i det klassiske vitenskapelige artikkelformatet har resultatene fra disse studiene så langt ikke blitt diskutert i sin helhet. I denne artikkelen tar vi et overordnet blikk og utøver en «kvalitativ meta-analyse» …
Why do female and male taekwondo athletes win the bout? An analysis based on the Olympic weight category and the result of the bout
2020
Combat sports such as taekwondo, where athletes compete against an opponent require control of technique and tactics, as well as knowing the optimal performance of opponents to win the bout. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to analyse the Olympic competitors (London Olympic Games), according to the weight category (fly, feather, light and heavy) and according to the performance in their fighting (winner vs. loser) in each gender. An observational methodology was used, following a nomothetic, follow-up and multidimensional design of 302 individual performances. The statistical analysis used an ANOVA and T Student test for comparing frequencies. The results obtained indicate signif…
A Group-Based 8-Week Functional Interval-Type Outdoor Training Program Improves Physical Performance in Recreationally Active Adults
2022
Even though physical activity is an important aspect of health, lack of time or motivation impede people from working out regularly. One type of training program that is both efficient and motivating is functional interval-type outdoor training. To evaluate this, our study had 81 participants complete a battery of physical performance tests (incremental treadmill test, core stability test and functional fitness test) before and after an 8-week outdoor interval-type training intervention. Training procedures included multimodal and high-intensity exercises performed in consistent, small groups. Results showed that the interval training program produced significant increases in the interventi…
Uddannelse som social kunstform?
2018
Malet med denne artikel er at undersoge nogle af de kunstneriske og paedagogiske dilemmaer, der kan opsta, nar man anvender praksisstyret aktionsforskning i udviklingen af egen undervisning i og gennem de kunstneriske fag ved et universitet. Ved at fokusere pa vanskelige situationer onsker artiklen at diskutere, hvad der sker, nar laerere og studerende sammen udforsker egne roller i de utydeligt afgraensede mellemrum og spaendinger mellem praksisformerne undervisning, forskning og kunst. I forste del av artiklen praesenteres didaktiske, kunstneriske og metodiske aspekter af forskningsprojektet Art as Education/Education as Art, hvor min kollega og jeg i efteraret 2016 sammen gennemforte en …
Indefra og udefra – serendipitet som kunstfagdidaktisk princip i teater bag murene
2020
Udgangspunktet for denne studie skal findes i et kunstnerisk projekt med det norske scenekunst-kompagni Teater Bak Murene. I foråret 2019 arbejdede kompagniet med at udvikle forestillingen Innefra og Ut, som blev vist og udviklet sammen med indsatte i Trondheim Fængsel i forbindelse med dansefestivallen Multiplié. I vores undersøgelse af arbejdet med Innefra og Ut fokuserer vi på de kunstfagdidaktiske potentialer, som opstår i krydsfeltet mellem det kunstneriske udviklingsarbejde, deltagerne og publikums møde med forestillingen. I analysen gennemfører vi en fænomen-grafering (Juelskjær, 2019) af to hændelser fra forestillingen. Gennem fænomen-graferingen og begreberne serendipitet, som vi h…
Students’ motivation in a disc golf-lesson and a soccer-lesson: An experimental study in the Physical Education setting
2017
The purpose of physical education (PE) in both Norway and Denmark is that PE should inspire to a lifelong active lifestyle. Based on the self-determination theory, the aim of the present study was to compare students’ intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and perceived competence in a lifestyle sport inspired PE-lesson (disc golf) to a traditional PE-lesson (soccer) and general PE. In addition, we aimed to investigate whether differences in motivation and perceived competence was conditional of the students´ relative attitude toward PE. The result of the study revealed that perceived competence was higher in the disc golf-lesson compared to the soccer-lesson and general PE. No overall…
