The paper presents a work in progress which is part of a larger study. Studentslearning analysis was investigated with the aim to find out how their concept images changed from the beginning of an analysis course to a year after the course. Their links between concepts were studied after the year had passed. The influence of the students’ pre-knowledge was durable and sometimes prevented students
A group of pre-service teachers were studied from two social practices, as teachers and as students. Their perceptions of mathematics concepts and beliefs about the mathematics teacher role were studied through questionnaires, interviews and classroom observations. Three students were selected as cases in this paper where their links between the concepts limits, derivatives, integrals and continui
The aim of this three-year study is to further contribute to the understanding of how relations between Reality – Theoretical models – Mathematics are communicated in Swedish upper-secondary physics. A developed analytical framework (Hansson, Hansson, Juter, & Redfors, 2015; 2019) is used to focus the analysis of the classroom communication on relations made (by teachers and students) between
Agricultural intensification is widely recognised as a primary driver of pollinator loss, but the success of land-management actions designed to remediate its impact is often mixed. Payments to farmers to increase habitat connectivity or the availability of floral and nesting resources may only result in short-term gains or even unintended consequences. The reasons may lie in changes to interactio
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated an association between transplantation rate per center and postoperative mortality after heart transplantation. In 2011, Sweden centralized heart transplants and waiting lists, reducing the number of centers from 3 to 2. We aimed to assess the active waiting time and pre- and post-transplant mortality before and after centralization.METHODS: Heart tra
To examine whether the level of genetic risk in psychiatric disorders impacts the social functioning of affected individuals, we examine the relationship between genetic risk factors for major depression (MD), anxiety disorders (AD), bipolar disorder (BD), non-affective psychosis (NAP), alcohol use disorder (AUD), and drug use disorder (DUD) in disordered individuals and five adverse social outcom
Purpose: To investigate the contributors to self-rated health in people with late-stage Parkinson’s disease (PD) and cognitive impairment. Methods: A secondary analysis of baseline data from the international Care of Late-Stage Parkinsonism (CLaSP) cohort study was conducted. Participants with PD and either dementia or mild cognitive impairment or MMSE < 24/30 in the absence of major depression we
Proof logging in constraint programming is an approach to certifying a conclusion reached by a solver. To allow for this, different propagators must be augmented to produce justifications for any inferences they make, so that an independent proof checker can certify correctness. The Circuit constraint is used to enforce a Hamiltonian cycle on a set of vertices, e.g. for vehicle routing. Maintainin
IMPORTANCE Twin studies have found that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors within a generation. No study has used an adoption design, which can address questions about the degree and sources of cross-generational transmission of adverse stress responses (ASRs) and PTSD. OBJECTIVES To examine whether ASRs or PTSD are transmitted from parents
Redovisning är en process som omfattar allt från företagets transaktioner och omständigheter, till den analys och användning av företagets redovisningsinformation som slutligen sker. Redovisning ligger också till grund för en lång rad viktiga beslut. Vi vill med den här boken visa att redovisning är någonting helt fundamentalt i samhället och ett ämne som är både roligt, spännande och viktigt!Boke
This editorial introduces the issue of Journal of Scandinavian Cinema (JSCA), which focuses on representations of various social identities in diverse historical and cultural contexts. The issue includes articles on race and post-colonialism, gender and sexuality, and class and nation in Nordic films. The editorial summarizes main arguments and contributions of each article and highlights the rele
Background: Insulin resistance is a hypothesised biological mechanism linking obesity with prostate cancer (PCa) death. Data in support of this hypothesis is limited. Methods: We included 259,884 men from eight European cohorts, with 11,760 incident PCa’s and 1784 PCa deaths during follow-up. We used the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index as indicator of insulin resistance. We analysed PCa cases wit
Streak cameras are central to measurements across the sciences. By spatially modulating the entrance slit, we show a more than 20% increase in temporal resolution opening up for sub-picosecond measurements with standard streak camera systems.
In the last 30 years, molecular imprinting has been evidenced as a desirable approach to design artificial, specific, and selective recognition sites for the target molecules/cells. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are the most encouraging reflection of the advanced area of biomimetics and have attracted important popularity for the detection of many types of molecules including peptides, pro
