Formålet med kroppsøvingsfaget : Fremkomsten av diskurser innen norsk kroppsøving: En kvantitativ tverrsnittstudie
2018
Master grunnskolelærerutdanning for trinn 5-10, 5-årig masterprogram IDR507 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 Background and purpose: The purpose of physical education is a highly discussed theme today, mostly because of the unclear core of the subject. This study aims to investigate the emergence of the health-discourse, the sports-discourse and the «bildung» -discourse, as well as to examine which of these discourses that are the most prominent within Norwegian physical education. The study also aims to investigate the emergence of gender differences in the discourses in the subject, if there is a difference in experienced discourses based on schooling as well as investigating if students' wel…
Teacher education programmes in physical education and sport at master’s level: Opportunities and challenges
2021
I denne artikkelen undersøker vi fremtidige muligheter og utfordringer i femårige lærerutdanninger i kroppsøving og idrettsfag på masternivået, i lys av kvalitet og relevans for fagfeltet. I undersøkelsen ble det benyttet en kvalitativ tilnærming med to metodiske innganger. Først ble et utvalg på 96 masteroppgaver i perioden 2015–2018 innenfor fagfeltet kroppsøving og idrettsfag brukt for å undersøke hva slags tematikker, teoretiske tilnærminger og metoder som er benyttet i masteroppgavene. Med bakgrunn i denne undersøkelsen ble det gjennomført en workshop med et utvalg lærerutdannere for å få innsikt i hva de oppfattet som fremtidige muligheter og utfordringer i femårig lærerutdanning i fa…
Hvordan opplever kvinner og menn med depresjonsfølelse å praktisere yoga : Et holistisk perspektiv
2021
Master's thesis in Psychosocial health (ME504) Background: According to the World Health Organization WHO, more than 264 million people worldwide suffer from depression, this is about 4.7% of the world's population, and depression is the leading cause of disability and a major contributor to «the global burden of disease ». Some of these people who experience feelings of depression have discovered that practicing yoga can help them experience a better everyday life. Purpose: To gain insight into how people with feelings of depression experience practicing yoga. Issue: How do women and men with depression experience practicing yoga? A holistic perspective. Method: The study has a qualitative…
Muskelfunksjon blant unge toppidrettsutøvere i Sør-Norge : Finnes det en sammenheng mellom utvalgte fysiologiske faktorer og muskelstyrke, power og h…
2019
Masteroppgave idrettsvitenskap ME517 - Universitetet i Agder 2019 Background: Muscle strengthand poweris a determining feature of performance in many different sports and thephysiologicalfactors that affect muscle functionare many. Previous studies have mostly concernedadult athletes, while researchfeaturing young elite athletes or differences between sports have been scarce. Purpose: The study’s purposeis to investigate possibleconnectionsbetween physiological factors such as resting metabolic rate, protein intake, and fat-free mass and muscle functionamong young elite athletes in southern Norway.Differences between sport-groupswere alsoinvestigated. Method: A total of 36young elite athlet…
The Talk Test and nasal breathing when running below and above the first lactate turnpoint
2021
Master's thesis in Sports science (ME517) Objective: The use of lactate and heart rate as intensity control tools may be expensive for certain populations and may lead athletes to be excessively ‘numbers fixated’. The aim of this study was to investigate if the Talk Test and/or a mouth closed ‘nose breathing’ test could serve as an effective intensity control tool and differentiate between running below and above the first lactate turn point. Conclusion: At the group level, both MCT and TT responses demarcate statistically significant and practically meaningful differences in physiological intensity and perceived exertion. However, neither the MCT nor the TT consistently differentiate betwe…
Variation in exercise intensity during typical training drills in youth footballers measured via GPS tracking devices
2020
Master's thesis in Sports science (ME517) PURPOSE: The present study aims to investigate the between-athlete and within-athlete variation in intensity occurring during various small-sided games (SSG) formats to determine their relevance within soccer specific drills. METHODS:19 youth male football players (age:14.0 ±1.0 y, height: 1.6 ±7.4 m, body mass: 54.5 ±7.5 kg) were monitored during an 8-week period two times per week. The first two weeks consisted of a familiarization phase followed by 6 weeks of monitoring. Subjects performed a standardized warmup prior to completing various formats of SSG games (3 vs. 3 and 6 vs. 6). Each SSG were performed with a duration of 2 x 4 minutes interspe…
Effectiveness of traditional- vs individualized power training based on force-velocity profiling on maximal power, rate of force development, myoelec…
2020
Master's thesis in Sports science (ME517) INTRODUCTION. Muscle power is reported to be a good indicator of functional independency in elderly. Individualized power-training based on force-velocity (F-v) profiling has received increasing attention for optimizing muscle power development. The aim of this study is to investigate effectiveness of traditional- vs individualized power-training based on F-v profiling on maximal power(Pmax), rate of force development (RFD), myoelectric activity (EMG), and rate of myoelectric activity (RMA) in older men. METHOD. Forty-nine older men (67.7±5.3years) underwent physical testing before and after a 10-week training intervention. Subjects were randomized …
Sammenhengen mellom underliggende fysisk kapasitet og fysisk prestasjon på fotballbanen for toppfotballspillere
2021
Master's thesis in Sports science (ME517) For å være i stand til å opprettholde intensiteten og kvaliteten som kreves for å prestere godt i fotball gjennomenkamp og sesong, er det viktig med god fysisk kapasitet. De senere årene har det blitt observert at spillets intensitet har økt, og dermed også fysiske krav til spillere. Det er blant annet observert en økning i antall sprinter og høyintensitetsaksjoner under kamp uten at total distanse har økt nevneverdig, hvilket antyder at kravene til eksplosive ferdigheter har økt. Hensikten med denne observasjonsstudien var derfor å undersøke sammenhengen mellom underliggende fysisk kapasitet i sprint, spenst og beinstyrke, og fysisk prestasjon på f…
Tissue oxygen saturation during different blood flow restriction exercise protocols
2018
Master's thesis Sports Science ME517 - University of Agder 2018 Low load BFRRE induce more strength and hypertrophy than work-matched resistance exercise alone. Although the potential for hypertrophic adaptions seem to be comparable between high load conventional resistance exercise and low load BFRRE. Adaptions in hypertrophy following BFRRE seem to be greater with loads of 30% than 20%. There does not seem to be any relationship between the dose of low load BFRRE and the muscular adaption hypertrophy. There is lack of research of lower volumes, in terms of what is necessary for muscular adaptions. Hypertrophy is speculated to be more affected by frequency when exercising over shorter peri…
