Human beings create meaning from the fact that concepts tend to occur together in a predictable way. When we see a dog, we also see a tail, paws, eyes, legs, fur, and etcetera. In this context, we would see an owner who goes for a walk in the park with the dog that is attached to a leach, and the dog might bark. Thus, the concept of a dog is connected with these other concepts, and when these conc
It is becoming increasingly evident that the field of language documentation and the docu¬mentary multimedia resources it produces rely on expanding their relevance and usability to disciplines beyond linguistics in order to increase their chances of being sustainable in the long term. This paper argues that more attention should be paid to the needs and interests of such disciplines in language d
Today, negative induced polarization (IP) time-domain responses and responses with non-standard shapes are generally considered as measurement errors and removed in data processing before inversion. However, synthetic and field measurements show that these responses are in fact physically possible and that a simple theoretical explanation of the basic mechanism for their origin can be found by mea
Developments in medical technology and treatment have increased the survival rates of children with serious illnesses or injuries, including those receiving home mechanical ventilation, which is a small but growing group. The aim of this study was to explore everyday life experiences of children and young people living with home mechanical ventilation (HMV). Data were obtained through interviews w
It has been suggested that the new (and controversial) endoscopic techniques are more successful than standard operation for the preservation of the ligamentous pulley function across the carpal tunnel and for the separation of the gliding structures from the subcutaneous tissues after release of the carpal ligament in carpal tunnel syndrome. We therefore decided to study the possible importance o
The 3 GeV electron storage ring of the MAX IV laboratory is the first storage-ring-based synchrotron radiation facility with the inner surface of almost all the vacuum chambers along its circumference coated with non-evaporable getter (NEG) thin film. The coating provides a low dynamic outgassing rate and pumping of active gases. As the NEG coating was applied on an unprecedented scale, there were
Basis pursuit (BP), basis pursuit deNoising (BPDN), and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) are popular methods for identifying important predictors in the high-dimensional linear regression model (Formula presented.). By definition, when (Formula presented.), BP uniquely recovers (Formula presented.) when (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) implies (Formula presented
The magnon Hedin's equations are derived via the Schwinger functional derivative technique, and the resulting self-consistent Green's function (GF) method is used to calculate ground state spin patterns and magnetic structure factors for two-dimensional magnetic systems with frustrated spin-12 Heisenberg exchange coupling. Compared with random phase approximation treatments, the inclusion of a sel
Author of Biographia Literaria (1817) and The Friend (1809-10, 1812 and 1818), Samuel Taylor Coleridge was the central figure in the British transmission of German idealism in the 19th century. The advent of Immanuel Kant in Coleridge’s thought is traditionally seen as the start of the poet’s turn towards an internalized Romanticism. Demonstrating that Coleridge’s discovery of Kant came at an earl
We discuss remarkable constructions in Icelandic that have the distributive pronoun hvor ‘each’ in common: the reciprocal construction hvor annar ‘each other’, and the distributive construction hvor sinn ‘each their’, which also comes in a sinn hvor ‘their each’ version. We provide the first detailed description of these constructions, in particular their case and word order properties, which rais
With roots in social psychology, second language (L2) motivation has largely been investigated using self-report techniques. Studies drawing on observational data gathered in contexts where learning takes place are rare, and understandings of how motivation evolves in classroom interactions remain limited (Boo, Dörnyei, & Ryan, 2015). In a position paper in Language Teaching, Ushioda (2016) ma
The significant environmental impact of the current fossil fuel-based industry is a major concern for society. Consequently, various initiatives are being undertaken to establish a more sustainable industrial model. One example is via the transition from conventional fossil fuel refineries to biorefineries, where renewable raw materials are utilised. Amongst these raw materials, the use of lignoce
Personal growth as a process remains vaguely understood. We introduce the Personal Growth Process (PGP) model based on Carl Rogers’s organismic valuing process (OVP). The PGP model explains personal growth as a sociocognitive embodied process whereby an individual undergoes multiple mental shifts that make up an ongoing, fluctuating process over the long term, starting from a place of psychologica
Reindeer pastoralism, practiced by groups of the Indigenous Sámi people in Sweden, is being threatened by a new wave of encroachments. In this paper I take stock of how the Sámi movement has mobilized around grievances related to the ecological conditions that support natural pasture-based reindeer pastoralism. I apply the contentious politics approach to social movement theory, and Felix Kolb’s c
This article explores Christian education and learning in the Church of Sweden and the Church of Norway today. Given the impact of major changes in society and in school curricula over the last fifty years, the conditions of this work are changing. What major challenges are identified today? How have these two churches responded to the new circumstances? The Church of Norway has developed a system
The construction industry is often described as mature, conservative and resistant to change in research studies, governmental reports as well as in media. Both scholars and policy makers thereby find it critical to encourage innovation, development, and change within the construction industry. This study takes on a different perspective by investigating changes that have actually taken place. The
The United Nations (UN)-led global consultations on new development goals, which will replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), started in 2012. In comparison with the creation of the MDGs, the road towards the post-2015 goals is much more inclusive and participatory. The consultations are part of a longer trend, in which intergovernmental organizations seek to strengthen their legitimacy
Demands on the quality and reliability of volunteered geographic information have increased because of its rising popularity. Due to the less controlled data entry, there is a risk that people provide false or inaccurate information to the database. One factor that affects the effect of such updates is the structure of the database schema, which in this paper is described by network models. By ana
