title: Factors Facilitating and Inhibiting Good Use of Medication-Kits as a Tool in Symptom Management for Home-Dwelling Patients in the Terminal Phase: The Perspectives of Home Care Nurses, 2017

description: The purpose of the study was to develop new knowledge on home care nurses' experiences with the medication-kit as a tool in symptom management for home-dwelling patients in the terminal phase. Data were generated through two focus-group interviews with four subsequent in-depth interviews. The nurses reported that planning and clear instructions regarding the use of the medication-kit gave security and facilitated the use of the medication-kit. Good collaboration with the primary physician, accessibility and clarifying meetings in particular were necessary. Low continuity in the use of the medication-kit hindered its use. The nurses were often alone with the responsibility for assessing the patient and administering the medications. This frequently created professionally untenable situations, particularly on the night shift.

title: Critical Journalism in China: Journalists, Activists and New Spaces of Representation, 2010

description: This project aimed to understand how critical expressions can contribute to political representation in the context of the Chinese one party state. The primary objective was to explore the discursive strategies employed by journalists and activists in order to create new spaces of representation. The data collection was conducted through interviews with investigative journalists and activists located in different regions in China. Most of the activists worked with either environmental questions of were engaged in HIV/AIDS organizations.

The study is funded by the National Institute for Alcohol and Drug Research (SIRUS). The main purpose of the survey is to map Norwegians' use and habits related to alcohol, tobacco and drugs. In addition to a set of fixed questions for mapping the use of drugs and tobacco, the survey also contains a group of questions that rotates each year. These were in 2015 questions about work life and alcohol, and alcohol consumption in different contexts. There were also added certain questions in the fixed parts of the survey. These were questions regarding shopping of alcohol abroad and in tax-free.

title: India: Agrarian Contracts and Rural Poverty in India, 2013

description: This study investigated to what extent traditional contractual arrangements, which are intertwined with kinship and caste relationships and may have an exploitative character, can explain the comparative lack of economic progress in the rural sector. Also, to what extent have better options outside traditional arrangements, whether in the rural or the urban economy, changed power relations in remote rural areas? Two government interventions were in focus, the rural employment guarantee scheme and the provision of all-weather roads. Particular attention was made to how their effects differ across castes and social groups. The analysis was based on panel data from rural Orissa, whereby a new round was added to surveys previously conducted by team members. Proceeding from the panel, interview both parties of contracts that rule in labor, credit, insurance and related transactions were collected, especially those between the poor and their wealthier neighbors in Indian villages. The data includes a household survey and village survey, and interviews with linked contract partners.

title: Economic Conditions of Displacement, 2015

description: The conditions of displacement consist of a multitude of transformations that have a negative effect for a number of people affected while simultaneously generate an economy of survival and productivity for others. Understanding this requires a broad intellectual reflection on how the dynamics and patterns of inclusion and exclusion emerges, how the displaced population defined their own livelihood strategies in the new environment and what effect this had for the formal and the informal labour market that existed in local host communities. This project seeked to contribute to the state of the art of displacement and refugee studies through a series of case-studies. Data was collected in Nakivale refugee settlement in Uganda. It has two parts: Refugees and Nationals. The data is representative of the residents in the settlement area.

title: Language Mapping of Multilingual Children. A Barrier or a Tool for Inclusion, 2017

description: Norwegian kindergarten has become an ethnically and culturally diverse meeting place. This project investigated if and how language mapping can contribute to the inclusion or exclusion of multilingual children. Language mapping in kindergarten is a relatively new, but controversial phenomenon. Supporters claim that the practice helps ensure children the follow-up they need, and an important tool in the effort to neutralize social differences. The critics claim that the practice is largely based on a problem perspective - what children can not. Further, they believe that when the problem is linked to specific groups this is in itself a challenge for inclusion. The main objective of this project was to contribute to a knowledge-based understanding of mapping practices and what this implies for the inclusion of multilingual children in kindergartens and schools. Data was collected through observations and interviews in five kindergartens. The project was carried out in collaboration with Trondheim Municipality.

title: Labour Migration in Uncertain Times: Migration from Spain to Norway, 2014

description: This project aimed to further our understanding of migration between two countries that were differentially affected by the current European economic crisis, and Spanish migrants experiences with Norwegian society and working life in the wake of the eurocrisis. History has shown that economic crises play an important part in workers' decisions to migrate, but the issue of cause is much more complex. The results from this study indicated that Spanish migrants left Spain not only because of an unemployment crisis but also because of a political crisis. In addition to a possibility to more favorable conditions on the Norwegian labour market, reasons for leaving and for not returning were ascribed to politics and conditions on the labor market in Spain.
