Sykepleieres holdninger til involvering av pårørende: - en tverrsnittsstudie
In the future there will be more patients in need of care and fewer nurses. Relatives will have a more extensive caring role, which makes nurses’ collaboration with relatives important. The aim of the study was to investigate nurses’ attitudes towards involving relatives and see if there were differences between nurses in the municipal health service and hospitals. In addition, whether there were conditions that influenced their attitudes. The study was cross-sectional using a questionnaire (Importance in Nursing Care – Nurses’ Attitudes (FINC – NA) with a convenience sample of nurses from villages, densely populated areas, and small towns in central Norway (N = 318). No differences were found between nurses in the municipal health service and hospitals, and it was usual to show care for relatives. Relatives were seen as a resource for patients, and as an important collaboration partner. Nurses with further education had more positive attitudes.Fremover blir det trolig flere pasienter med omsorgsbehov og færre sykepleiere. Pårørende får en mer omfattende omsorgsrolle, og samarbeidet med de pårørende blir derfor sentralt. Hensikten med studien var å undersøke sykepleiernes holdninger til å involvere pårørende, og se på om det var forskjeller mellom sykepleiere i kommunehelsetjenesten og i sykehus. Videre om det var forhold som innvirket på holdningene. Studien var en tverrsnittstudie med spørreskjema (Importance in Nursing Care – Nurses’ Attitudes - the FINC-NA) i et bekvemmelighetsutvalg med sykepleiere fra bygder, tettbygde strøk og små byer i Midt-Norge (N = 318). Det var ingen forskjell mellom sykepleiere i kommunehelsetjenesten og i sykehus, og det var vanlig å vise omsorg for pårørende. Pårørende ble sett på som en ressurs for pasientene og som viktige samarbeidspartnere, og sykepleiere med videreutdanning hadde mer positive holdninger
CATEGORIZACIÓN FONÉMICA DE INPUT VARIABLE POR ESTUDIANTES DE ESPAÑOL COMO L2
Este estudio analiza la categorización de input fonético variable por estudiantes de español como segunda lengua (L2), centrándose en los desafíos de reconocer y adquirir vocabulario nuevo en un contexto caracterizado por una notable variabilidad en el habla. Aunque el español presenta una amplia variedad de formas dialectales y sociales, los aprendices rara vez se exponen a dicha variación en el aula. Por lo tanto, un elemento clave de esta investigación es la fricativa palato-alveolar sorda [ʃ], ausente en la mayoría de las variedades del español, pero que puede surgir como alófono de /ʧ/ o /ʝ/ en algunas regiones. Este estudio busca determinar la habilidad de ciertos individuos para categorizar fonéticamente variedades con las que no están familiarizados. La investigación incluyó a 23 estudiantes de tercer año de español en una universidad del suroeste de los Estados Unidos. Los resultados indican que los participantes categorizaron correctamente la mayoría de las combinaciones hablante-fonema en más del 85 % de los casos, pero tuvieron dificultades significativas con el fonema /ʝ/ producido por la hablante rioplatense, donde la precisión cayó al 9.8 %. Curiosamente, la exposición previa al español rioplatense no mejoró significativamente la precisión en la identificación de sonidos, lo que sugiere que otros factores pueden influir en la categorización fonética de los aprendices. Este estudio analiza la categorización de input fonético variable por estudiantes de español como segunda lengua (L2), centrándose en los desafíos de reconocer y adquirir vocabulario nuevo en un contexto caracterizado por una notable variabilidad en el habla. Aunque el español presenta variaciones dialectales y sociales (Penny, 2000), los aprendices rara vez se exponen a dicha variación en el aula (Geeslin & Long, 2014). En base a esto, un elemento clave de esta investigación es la fricativa palato-alveolar sorda [ʃ], ausente en la mayoría de las variedades del español, pero que puede surgir como alófono de /ʧ/ o /ʝ/ en algunas regiones. Este estudio busca determinar la habilidad de los estudiantes para categorizar fonéticamente variedades con las que no están familiarizados. La investigación incluyó a 23 estudiantes de tercer año de español en una universidad del suroeste de los Estados Unidos. Los participantes completaron una tarea de identificación perceptual, una prueba de proficiencia lingüística y un cuestionario de antecedentes lingüísticos. Durante la tarea de percepción, escucharon oraciones con nombres de lugares inventados que contenían los sonidos en cuestión o distractores. Los resultados indican que los participantes categorizaron correctamente la mayoría de las combinaciones hablante-fonema en más del 85% de los casos, pero tuvieron dificultades significativas con el fonema /ʝ/ producido por la hablante rioplatense, donde la precisión cayó al 9.8%.

Risvåg (gnr.16/1, 176), ID7841, Hasvik k. Finnmark: Rapport fra utgravning i hus C (T15) 02. – 06. september 2019
The Stone Age Demographics project investigates demographic patterns, their background and implications at different scales. Stone Age sites typically are located at different heights above sea level, which suggests different ages. Signs of reuse have previously been reported or indicated from a number of excavations of Stone Age sites in Scandinavia but have very rarely been a separate issue. The associated methodological and cultural-historical implications have been addressed to a very limited extent. The issue is central to the Stone Age Demographics research project.
The Risvåg (ID 7841) site was originally registered by Povl Simonsen in 1962, and several features were excavated. Some were investigated in 1963. In 2016, 23 dwelling structures were identified. One of the previously excavated dwellings was re-investigated in the fall of 2019. The aim was to clarify whether and how multiple phases of use and possible reuse in individual structures can be demonstrated archaeologically.
The investigation in house C (T15) in Risvåg emphasized observation and documentation of stratigraphy. Even with small fields available, it was possible to extract datable material from several contexts, both in the thick wall embankment and the thin settlement layers in the floor area. The datings were made on a small number of selected charcoal samples with documented relative stratigraphic placement, so that they constituted sequences in the profiles. The dates of ten selected samples spread over several separate time periods, spanning almost two millennia. Dating samples that have been extracted in sequences from secure stratigraphic contexts proves to be a good method for demonstrating both the first establishment date and reuse.«Stone Age Demographics»-prosjektet undersøker demografiske mønstre, deres bakgrunn og implikasjoner i ulike skalaer. På boplasser fra steinalderen ligger tuftene i ulike høyder over havet, noe som antyder ulik alder. Tegn på gjenbruk har tidligere vært rapportert eller indikert i en rekke utgravninger av steinaldertufter i Skandinavia, men har svært sjelden vært en egen problemstilling. De tilhørende metodiske og kulturhistoriske implikasjonene har i svært liten grad vært adressert. Problemstillingen er sentral i forskningsprosjektet «Stone Age Demographics».
Lokaliteten Risvåg (ID 7841) ble opprinnelig registrert av Povl Simonsen i 1962. Flere tufter ble undersøkt i 1963. I 2016 ble 23 tufter påvist. En av de tidligere utgravde tuftene ble undersøkt høsten 2019. Målet var å avklare om og hvordan flere bruksfaser og mulig gjenbruk kan påvises arkeologisk.
Undersøkelsen i hus C (T15) la vekt på observasjon og dokumentasjon av stratigrafi. Selv med små felt til rådighet var det mulig å hente ut daterbart materiale fra flere kontekster, både i den tykke veggvollen og de tynne bosettingslaget i gulvarealet. Dateringene ble gjort på et lite antall utvalgte trekullprøver med dokumentert innbyrdes stratigrafiske plassering, slik at de utgjorde sekvenser i profilene. Dateringene av ti utvalgte prøver plasserte seg i flere separate tidsrom, som til sammen spenner over nesten to tusenår. Datering av prøver som er hentet ut i sekvenser fra sikre stratigrafiske kontekster viser seg som en god metode for å påvise både første etableringstidspunkt og gjenbruk.
For lokaliteten Risvåg som helhet kan det, på bakgrunn av resultatene fra 2019 og utgravningene i 1963, foreslås at alle husstrukturene ble anlagt nært samtidig strandlinje. Samtidig støtter undersøkelsen inntrykket av at det var vanlig med gjenbruk av eldre strukturer, gjennom flere tusen år. Høyde over havet kan dermed brukes til å datere når de ulike strukturene ble etablert, men gir ikke fullgodt svar på når, hvilke og hvor mange strukturer som var i bruk samtidig.
 
CARE & FAIR: Opposing or Aligning Concerns?
(Watch the RECORDING.)
The CARE principles aim to empower Indigenous peoples by promoting their active participation in the governance of Indigenous data, ensuring Indigenous responsibility, and aligning the purpose of data governance with their values and priorities. In contrast, the FAIR principles, widely adopted across various disciplines, provide a framework to enhance data stewardship and facilitate data sharing.
This paper seeks to advance the ongoing discussion on the governance of stories collected by the Norwegian Truth and Reconciliation Commission (Broderstad & Josefsen 2024). In our previous work, we applied the CARE framework to explore research ethics and the future governance of the Norwegian TRC material. The collected TRC interviews raise critical questions about ownership, access, and governance of the data. Building on this foundation, we now aim to explore how the TRC interview material can serve as a valuable resource for research while simultaneously ensuring Indigenous participation in its governance and promoting Indigenous responsibility for the collected data.
By integrating the CARE and FAIR principles, we argue that safeguarding Sámi agency in the reuse of this material is essential. Such an approach would help prevent the data from being detached from the interpretive context in which it was originally collected, ensuring that its use remains ethically grounded and culturally appropriate.
Experiences and Reflections: the PKP Sprint and CRAFT-OA Tech Event in Turin 2024
This article presents the impressions and reports of the three authors that attended three events: the national or large PKP OJS installations meeting, a PKP Sprint, and a CRAFT-OA Tech Event at the University of Turin. The events brought together a community from scholarly publishing and academia to share knowledge and collaborate with the purpose of building a stronger digital publishing ecosystem. The first day of the event concentrated on a meeting with representatives of the large and national PKP OJS installations. The meeting participants discussed technical and non-technical challenges they face and proffered solutions. The PKP Sprint on the second and third day produced some good ideas and results on documentation and new PKP software features. The CRAFT-OA Tech Event on the fourth and fifth day brought together key players in Diamond Open Access publishing to discuss technological and strategic improvements. The Tech event featured presentations and discussions on software development, indexing, and training. This article is about the sessions the three authors attended. We hope it will be useful for those who have not attended a national or large OJS installations meeting, PKP Sprint or CRAFT-OA Tech Event yet, and we hope it will motivate and inspire the readers to join in the future
Biographical Introduction, Summary of Contents and Appendix with bibliography of references
The nineteenth volume in the series presents a treatise on the aurora borealis by Lars (or Laurids) Barhow (1707–1754), a parish priest at Ørlandet, some 50-odd kilometres west of Trondheim in Norway. His theory of the aurora may not be correct from the vantage point of present-day physics, but his consistent methodological approach and independent line of reasoning certainly met the standards of the Age of Enlightenment. Unlike many other investigators, Barhow argued (correctly) that the aurora borealis never descended below the height of the clouds. He also attempted to make a classification system on various types of aurora to ensure that discussions of the phenomenon could follow a common epistemology. The text is extant in two versions, a German printed edition (Frankfurt & Leipzig, 1751) and a Danish manuscript with Latin words and phrases interspersed, which was submitted to the The Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters in 1748. The introduction, written by Neo-Latinist and historian of science Per Pippin Aspaas, contains biographical information as well as a summary with ample extracts of Bahow\u27s text in English translation. A list explaining the references in Barhow\u27s treatise rounds off the introduction.
"The greatest extravaganza of mortal combat ever staged": I guerrieri dell\u27anno 2072, classicism, fascism, and media consolidation in 1980s Italy
This paper examines the dystopian Italian science-fiction film I guerrieri dell’anno 2072 (Fulci, 1984), with a particular focus on the Battle of the Damned, a deadly televised contest in which condemned prisoners fight to the death in the reconstructed Colosseum in Rome. A consideration of this fictional game within the film’s dystopian future Rome will open onto three intertwined lines of analysis: the classicist impulse to conceive of a continuity between imperial Rome and contemporary Italy, the adoption of this classicism in fascist Italy, and media consolidation in the context of neoliberalism and political corruption in the 1980s. By pursuing these lines of analysis, the paper will argue that Fulci’s film functions as a critique of the national cultural moment from which it looks towards both Italy’s past and future as a continuity of authoritarianism and oppression

The article presents ethnographic research carried out in Sámi primary and lower secondary schools and in a Sámi upper secondary school located in the Sámi language administrative region in Norway. Based on research findings it is necessary to prioritize Sámi language visibility in the schools. Sámi language visibility is hindered by the fact that Sámi language status is not addressed in the school plans. The current language ideology in the educational institutions hinders Sámi language equality. Sámi language visibility in the linguistic landscape of the education system will promote a pluralistic language ideology and strengthen minority language policy. The Sámi language could benefit from a more pluralistic language ideology and a supportive minority language policy

This article presents a sociolinguistic cross-sectional case study. My primary material consists of 128 questionnaires that were gathered from 9 and 12 year-old North Sámi learners and their parents during the school year 2012–2013 in Finland, Norway and Sweden. I have approached and analysed the questionnaire data using the Hornbergian Continua of Biliteracy theoretical framework as my main conceptual tool.
According to my findings, the Sámi language is often conceived of as a language that is difficult to write and has more value when spoken fluently. Such views seem to, in turn, have negative effects on how literacy skills in Sámi are perceived both by the pupils and their parents. Paradoxically, when placed on the scales of the Continua of Biliteracy framework, one can see that the literacy context of many young Sámi learners of today is limited to the literary realm of school, and to literate rather than oral contexts. My findings further indicate that there are substantial interregional differences in the state of Sámi literacy due to both ideological and practical factors that arise in this complex bi- and multilingual context. Although some regions are coping better with reaching balanced biliteracy and good Sámi literacy skills among Sámi learners, Sámi literacy practices everywhere are in need of special attention and focused measures so that they can withstand the pressures that currently cause considerable lack of balance in many Sámi learners’ biliteracy
