" Om noen virkelig vil, da legger jeg sjelen i det for at de skal få det til ! " : Hva påvirker kroppsøvingslæreres valg av motivasjonsstil ? en kval…
2013
Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap Universitetet i Agder 2013 Formålet med denne studien har vært å utforske ulike faktorer som påvirker kroppsøvingslæreres valg av motivasjonsstil. Selv om en mengde forskning peker på autonomistøttende læreradferd som hensiktsmessig i møte med elevene, kan de se ut til at lærere noen ganger ender opp med å opptre kontrollerende, ofte på kompromiss med egne ønsker. Problemstillingen for denne studien er: Hva påvirker kroppsøvingslæreres valg av motivasjonsstil? Studien består av semistrukturerte intervjuer av fem lærere fra videregående skole med ulik erfaring fra læreryrket. Av de fem lærerne, identifiserer tre av lærerne seg mest med en autonomistøttende læ…
Effects of Including Sprints in One Weekly Low-Intensity Training Session During the Transition Period of Elite Cyclists
2020
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of including 30-s sprints in one weekly low-intensity training (LIT) session during a 3-week transition period in elite cyclists. Sixteen male elite cyclists (maximal oxygen uptake, VO2max: 72 ± 5 ml·kg−1·min−1) reduced their training load by ~60% for 3 weeks from the end of competitive season and performed only LIT or included 30-s sprints (SPR) in one weekly LIT-session. Performance and physiological capacities were evaluated during a prolonged (~2.5 h) test-session, including a strength test, a submaximal blood lactate profile test, an incremental test to exhaustion to determine VO2max, 1 h continuous cycling including four maximal…
Is It Possible to Predict an Athlete’s Behavior? The Use of Polar Coordinates to Identify Key Patterns in Taekwondo
2019
Elite sport psychologists help athletes develop planned competition strategies from a technical-tactical perspective, through the observation and analysis of previous performances. The aim of this study was to analyze the behavioral patterns used to score points in the 2012 London Olympic Games, by using a mixed observational methodology through a polar coordinate analysis. This analysis is a representation made into four quadrants of the relationships found between focal behavior [i.e., giving score points, (SC)] and conditioned behaviors considered as key factors in taekwondo, occurring before and after the focal behavior (i.e., retrospective/prospective behavior as indicated for each qua…
"Du gjør det, du lærer ikke bare om det". Min vei til dosent i mat og helse
2020
This chapter describes how the author, after a career of teaching the subject food & health (sometimes referred to as home economics) in lower secondary school, became a docent (professor) of the same subject at a university. Her journey included teaching experiences, curriculum development, research work, publishing textbooks, and being awarded a prize for making entrepreneurship a relevant method of teaching the subject. She reveals how she composed her application for promotion and shares with the reader some of the comments of the assessment committee. To conclude, the author describes her vision for the attained professorship.
Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) among Norwegian male athletes. Energy availability, health, and performance among male athletes at differ…
2021
Paper III is excluded from the dissertation until it will be published. Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) is a syndrome where low energy availability (LEA) has a negative impact on health [e.g., endocrine and metabolic alterations, reproductive dysfunction, impaired bone mineral density (BMD)] and performance. In females, the development and prevalence of RED-S have been well-investigated. However, research on males of all ages and performance levels is lacking. The overall aim of this dissertation was therefore to investigate RED-S among Norwegian male athletes at different age and performance levels. Three independent studies have been performed, and three original papers are in…

In the current study, we delivered the Healthy Body Image (HBI) intervention among Norwegian high school students and examined the effects on healthy lifestyle habits. Methods The HBI intervention…
Birth weight, cardiometabolic risk factors and effect modification of physical activity in children and adolescents: pooled data from 12 internationa…
2020
Abstract Objectives Low and high birth weight is associated with higher levels of cardiometabolic risk factors and adiposity in children and adolescents, and increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and early mortality later in life. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is associated with lower cardiometabolic risk factors and may mitigate the detrimental consequences of high or low birth weight. Thus, we examined whether MVPA modified the associations between birth weight and cardiometabolic risk factors in children and adolescents. Methods We used pooled individual data from 12 cohort- or cross-sectional studies including 9,100 children and adolescents. Birth weigh…
Physical Activity Levels in Preschool Children During Winter and Summer
2019
Source at https://fysioterapeuten.no/Tidsskrifter. Bakgrunn: Studier nasjonalt og internasjonalt indikerer at barn i alderen tre til fem år ikke oppnår retningslinjene for anbefalingene (2014) om minimum 60 minutter med moderat til høy fysisk aktivitet (MVPA) per dag. Studiens hovedmål var å undersøke fysisk aktivitetsnivå hos barnehagebarn i tre barnehager i alderen tre til fem år i en periode om vinteren og en periode om våren/sommeren. Metode: Fysisk aktivitet ble målt i barnehagetiden fra mandag til onsdag med aktivitetsmåleren Actigraph GT3X. Aktivitetsnivået ble kategorisert ut fra antall akselerometer- tellinger/min, hvor hovedvariabelen var tid i moderat til høy fysisk aktivitet (MV…
Explanations for use of dietary- and muscle enhancing dietary supplements among university students: a national cross-sectional study.
2022
Abstract Background Use of dietary supplements (DS) and muscle enhancing dietary supplements (MEDS) is frequent among students despite the lack of evidence of effects and health risks related to consumption. We need to increase our understanding of students’ motivation, examine potential gender differences, and explore explanatory factors, to address preventive measures related to use. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the frequency of, and the reasons for, DS use among university students, as well as explanatory factors for use of MEDS. Method Male and female students from nine Norwegian universities participated in this cross-sectional study. Participants responded to questions about…
Associations between changes in physical fitness and psychological difficulties status among Norwegian adolescents
2021
Abstract Objectives To investigate the associations for one-year changes in cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength and body mass index, with psychological difficulties status in adolescents. Methods Norwegian 14-15-year-olds (n = 925) participated in data collection at two time points separated by one year. Psychological difficulties were assessed via the Strengths and Difficulties questionnaire and data from follow-up serve as the dependent variable. Cardiorespiratory fitness (the Andersen-test), muscular strength (Eurofit) and body mass index were measured. Change scores were calculated from the physical fitness variables and serve as independent variables in linear mixed effects mo…
