Folkehelsearbeid i barnehagen . Ein case-studie av kva som har fremja og hemma ein kapasitetsbyggjande endringsprosess knytt til kosthald etter Fiskesprellkurs
No full textBakgrunn: Kosthaldsundersøkingar syner store sosiale skilnadar i kosthald også hjå born (Departementene, 2017, s. 16). Godt folkehelsearbeid utjamnar sosial ulikskap i helse (Helsedirektoratet, 2018c). Barnehagar er ein viktig bidragsytar innan folkehelsearbeid, og kan bidra med gode og sunne mat- og måltidsvanar (Departementene, 2017, s. 29). Fiskesprell er eit befolkningsretta tiltak for at born skal ete meir fisk og sjømat (Fiskesprell, 2021). Effektevaluering av Fiskesprell (Ipsos, 2020) har nokre tilrådingar som kan fremje positive effektar av Fiskesprell. Denne masteroppgåva studerer nokre barnehagar som har delteke på kurstilbod som Ipsos tilrår.
Formål: Studien kartlegg korleis tilsette opplever nytten av Fiskesprellkurs for kosthald og måltid i barnehagen. Vidare søkjer den å forstå kva som har fremja og/eller hemma barnehagen i å endre kosthaldspraksis. Studien ser også på i kva grad endra kosthaldspraksis kan føre til betre effektivitet og kvalitet.
Metode: Metodekombinasjon av spørjeundersøking og kvalitativt telefonintervju (Kvale & Brinkmann, 2015, s. 151). 26 av 54 tilsette svarte på spørjeundersøkinga (Fekjær, 2016, s.21). Seks kvalitative telefonintervju i tre av barnehagane (Kvale & Brinkmann, 2015, s. 21, 22, 42). Temasentrert analyse er nytta der teori har gitt temarammene for koding (Braun & Clarke, 2006). Kapasitetsbyggjande planleggingsteori (J. Amdam & Amdam, 2000; R. Amdam, 2005, 2011, 2021) og leiingsteori (Strand, 2007) forklarar funna.
Resultat: Fleirtalet av informantane i studien opplever at Fiskesprellkurset har vore nyttig. Nokre melder mellombels effekt av kurs. Funn tyder på at dette har samanheng med ein svak organiseringsvariabel (R. Amdam, 2011, s. 152–159), der styrar ikkje sikrar det organisasjonen har behov for. Dette hemmar endringsprosessen (R. Amdam, 2011; Strand,2007, s. 433).
Konklusjon: For at barnehagen skal lukkast med ein kapasitetsbyggjande endringsprosess knytt til kosthald, trengst ein god balanse mellom top-down legitimitet og bottom-up legitimitet. Styrar si leiing er avgjerande for å sikre det organisasjonen har behov for til ei kvar tid (Strand, 2007, s. 433). Variablane i endringsprosessen (R. Amdam, 2005, s. 151) må vere stabile eller veksande over tid, og den svakaste variabelen må stimulerast mest
Nytten av Fiskesprellkurs. Kva faktorar fremjar og hemmar kapasiteten i ein barnehage til å endre kosthaldspraksis etter Fiskesprellkurs?

Quality Public Health work equalizes social differences in health (Helsedirektoratet, 2018c). Kindergartens are important contributors within Public Health Work, and can contribute to healthy food and meal habits (Departementene, 2017, s. 29). Fiskesprell is a measure aimed at the general population to increase childrens` intake of fish and seafood (Fiskesprell, 2021). Effect evaluations of Fiskesprell (Ipsos, 2020) have some recommendations, which can promote positive effects of Fiskesprell. This master`s thesis studies some kindergartens that have participated in seminars that Ipsos recommends.
Objective: This study maps how employees experience the usefulness of Fiskesprell seminars for diet and meals in the kindergarten. Further, it seeks to understand what may promote and/or hinder the kindergarten in changing its nutritional practice. The study also looks at to what degree a changed nutritional practice may lead to improved effectiveness and quality.
Methods: Combined methods of survey and qualitative phone interview (Kvale & Brinkmann, 2015, s. 151). 26 of 54 employees participated in the survey (Fekjær, 2016, s. 21). Six qualitative phone interviews, in three of the kindergartens (Kvale & Brinkmann, 2015, s. 21, 22, 42). Theoretical thematic analysis has been used (Braun & Clarke, 2006). Empowerment-planning models (J. Amdam & Amdam, 2000; R. Amdam, 2005, 2011, 2021) and leadership theory (Strand, 2007) explains the findings.
Results: The majority of the informants in the study experience the Fiskesprell seminar as useful. Some report only intermediate effect of Fiskesprell seminar attendance. Findings here point towards a weak organizational variable (R. Amdam, 2011, s. 152–159), where the kindergarten director is not securing the needs of the organization. This hinders the process of change (R. Amdam, 2011; Strand, 2007, s. 433).
Conclusion: For the kindergarten to succeed in a capacity building process of nutritional change; a good balance is needed between top-down legitimacy and bottom-up legitimacy. The kindergartens directors`management skills are crucial to secure what the organization needs at any point in time (Strand, 2007, s. 433). Development variables (R. Amdam, 2005, s. 151) need to be stable or growing over time, and the weakest variable needs to be stimulated the mos
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
