Underveis Menns og kvinners lederkarrierer
I denne artikkelen undersøkes hvordan mannlige og kvinnelige lederes karrierer preges av stiavhengighet, ulike karrieredrivere og generasjonsforskjeller. Analysen er dels basert på paneldata fra AFFs lederundersøkelser, og følger et representativt utvalg av norske ledere i midtfasen av deres karrierer mellom 1999 og 2011. Funnene viser at menn starter på et høyere stillingsnivå og investerer mer tid i lederjobben, men at kvinner som blir stående …
Aldri fred å få? – Rollekonflikter midt i lederlivet
European grandparents' solicitude
The mechanisms linking grandparental gender and involvement with grandchildren are probably more complex than previously understood. Grandmothers are likely to benefit from their central role as kin-keepers in their provision of care, while grandfathers in their older years benefit more from having a partner at their side. A basic argument here is that this indirect advantage for grandfathers dampens the general age-related reduction in their cap…

Inpatient service providers’ perspectives on service user involvement in Norwegian community mental health centres
Background: For two decades, mental health services in Norway have focused on service user involvement. Despite this, there is little knowledge about how inpatient mental health services have promoted user involvement. Aim: To examine service providers’ reports of service user involvement at the individual and departmental levels in Norwegian community mental health centres (CMHCs). Methods: One hundred and eighty six (186) inpatient service prov…
Striking a different balance
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how male and female managers may regulate their workload differently in response to conflicting job‐home pressures. The main hypothesis is that female managers seek to reduce anticipated discord by investing less time in their work role. The paper investigates this postulated link between managers' gender and work‐family conflict via their workload, based on a conceptual model and within a Scandinav…
Shared or separate? Money management and changing norms of gender equality among Norwegian couples
Over the last generation the male breadwinner/housewife family has gradually become outdated as the dominant normative model for family households. The new ideal has become the adult worker family model, where gender equality defined as economic independence and sharing of household work and childcare between spouses/partners is the norm. The Nordic countries are the frontrunners of this development, and the Nordic welfare model is assumed to be …

Interaction in the dyad : Life satisfaction for spouses on Norwegian farmsIn this article we analyse spouses’ subjective quality of life for farm couples. A conceptual model is presented, postulating individual well-being as resulting from own and spouse’s background, common conditions on the farm, as well as partner’s well-being. We argue for reciprocal mechanisms of life satisfaction within the dyad at the holding, and specify alternative hypot…
National Context, Individual Characteristics and Attitudes on Mothers' Employment
This article examines how a general social process—the struggle toward gender equality—is reflected in the public opinion on mothers' employment in three different modern welfare states: Great Britain, Sweden and Norway. Viewing such attitudes as reponses to structural changes in women's relation to the labour market, the possible between- and within-country variations in these attitudes are hypothesized. The data are drawn from the International…
Scandinavian Neighbours with Different Character? Attitudes Toward Immigrants and National Identity in Norway and Sweden
This article takes up a theme of growing importance in the European and Scandinavian context, namely national sentiments and reactions toward new immigrants. More specifically, I analyse possible links between aspects of national identity and fear of foreigners - or xenophobia - in Norway and Sweden. Such ideas involve hypotheses at different levels and imply a step-by-step approach, analytically and empirically. It is argued that the concept of …
Norwegians' Attitudes Toward New Immigrants
During the 1980s Norway, together with Denmark and Sweden, experienced an influx of immigrants, refugees and asylum-seekers from the poorer nations of Asia. Africa and Latin America. The encounter forced Norwegians to confront their established values and attitudes. One of the most homogeneous and uniform countries in the world underwent a unique experiment: new groups and colors changed the traditional picture- and perhaps as a result the nation…
The Iron Law of Inequality
Two general hypotheses about education and social stratification in socialist and non-socialist societies have been proposed in the literature. The first states that the impact of family background on educational attainment will be weaker in socialist state-systems, the second that the association between education and social position will be stronger than in Western countries. On the basis of recent comparative studies it is hypothesized, howeve…
Shorter Working Hours, Lower Retirement Age or Longer Vacations? Ambivalences in Public Attitudes on Alternative Working-Time Reforms in Norway
This article investigates inconsistent attitudes on working time reforms in a Norwegian survey In the survey the respondents were asked both a general and a specific question about preferences among alternative working time reforms Those who stick to the direction of their original preference are called consistent respondents, while those who 'shift' direction from the general to the specific question are called ambivalent respondents The main ar…
Class Identification in Norway
This research note examines class identification in the Norwegian population. A simple causal framework is presented where subjective class is seen as the result of expenences in origin family, the educational system and current family. It is argued that direct effects of family background and family earnings on class identification should interact with life-cycle period To test expectations we use a Norwegian national survey from 1982 (N = 1376)…
Accident Risk in Middle Age Years and in Old Age
In this paper a sociological role theory for the explanation of variations in accident rates is presented. Accident Risk is seen as a combined result of a person's exposure to dangerous situations, here labeled Role Strain, and his ability to avoid and survive potential accidents which is called Individual Capacity. Married women, married men, single (never married) women and single (never married) men are examined with respect to Role Strain and…
