This paper is part of a broader multilingual research project that addresses the relationships between affective phenomena (as units of personal experience), concepts (as units of cognitive processing) and the lexical items we use in talking about affective experience (as units of verbal communication. The focus will be here on data obtained in six Scandinavian and Romance languages (N=1093) with
Arbetet med att uppmuntra allmänheten att skaffa sig en elementär beredskap för att kunna klara av till exempel längre elavbrott eller föroreningar i dricksvatten behöver förbättras på en rad olika punkter, visar ett examensarbete skrivet av Joel Rödström, Lunds Tekniska Högskola. I det moderna samhället förlitar vi oss på att leveranser av el, mat, vatten och värme fungerar. Att vi vant oss vidThe urban human of today is becoming increasingly dependent on different functions of the society to survive, such as electricity and communications, functions which are sensitive to e.g. storms. The on-going climate change is and will further put a pressure on these functions. Concerns have risen that today’s public is limited in its ability to independently deal with the consequences of societal
A science project as part of a student’s curriculum, which we call student science, might be the answer to two problems for a low-income country like Ethiopia: conventional science can be expensive and many students lack training in practical skills. Earlier studies have been conducted with respect to lay people (citizens or students) conducting (parts of) research (e.g. citizen science), but rare
Popular science ArRiyadh, the capital city of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. During the last decade the population of the city has been increased to five million due to heavy migration towards the city. Due to this population pressure, the living conditions in the different neighborhoods of the city are different. The residents in any city are mainly
Biopharmaceuticals are complex biological molecules that require careful storage and handling to ensure medication integrity. In this study, a work system analysis of real-world protein drug (PD) handling was performed with the following goals: identify main barriers and facilitators for successful adherence to accepted recommendations in PD handling, analyse differences in two organizations, and
he historical legacy of colonialism worldwide has created challenges for Indigenous peoples, including racial discrimination and marginalization. This is reflected in, inter alia, the overrepresentation of Indigenous children in child welfare systems, even in countries performing comparably high in human right advancements otherwise. While there may be a broad spectrum of reasons for this issue, t
Coalescence during emulsification has a significant effect on the outcome of the process, especially for the high volume fractions of disperse phase common in food and pharmaceutical processing. Controlling emulsification requires that the extent of coalescence during different conditions can be quantified. The step-down technique is the most commonly used method for measuring coalescence frequenc
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to compare different methods to predict acute coronary syndrome (ACS) using only data from a single electrocardiogram (ECG) in the emergency department (ED). METHOD: We compared the ACS prediction abilities of classical ECG criteria, human expert ECG interpretation, a logistic regression model and an artificial neural network ensemble (ANN). The ED ECG and d
Both empirical and theoretical studies show that an individual's spatial position within a group can impact the risk of being targeted by predators. Spatial positions can be quantified in numerous ways, but there are no direct comparisons of different spatial measures in predicting the risk of being targeted by real predators. Here, we assess these spatial measures in groups of stationary and movi
As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly embedded in organisational operations, it introduces not only efficiency but also unique information security challenges. Traditional security practices cover common threats, however, the lack of transparency in AI output and the possibility of novel attacks such as data poisoning and phishing attacks show that these systems are poorly equipped
According to results of a recent literature search performed by the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Task Forces (TF) on Quality of Life and Patient Oriented Outcomes (QoL and PO) and Acne, Rosacea and Hidradenitis Suppurativa (ARHS), most of the publications where health-related (HR) QoL of acne patients was studied were clinical trials. Members of the EADV TF on QoL and PO
