The basic hypothesis is that mind is an emergent property of the processes that produce natural language expressions. The shape of the mind of a particular person can be discovered through the mechanisms forming the corresponding language space. Although covered by textual surface properties, this space is approachable with VERTEX, which is a new version of Perspective Text Analysis (PTA). Due to
Resistance to antibiotics is a major threat to the effectiveness of modern health care. This study examines if pay-for-performance (P4P) to care providers stimulates the appropriate use of antibiotics; in particular, if P4P can induce a substitution away from broad-spectrum antibiotics, which contribute more to the development of resistance, to less resistance-driving types. In the context of Swed
This article analyses the history of the Swedish welfare state, with a special emphasis on the development of Swedish family policy between 1930 and 1975. It is argued that a coalition between state officials and state-appointed experts was active in the shaping and legitimising of the concept of family as well of family politics. The underlying assumption of the paper is that the concepts of the
This paper presents an analysis of an island-operated distribution network with distributed induction generation under different fault conditions. In the first part, the behavior of an island-operated induction generator connected to a distribution network is presented for short-circuits at different locations in the network, with varying values of fault resistance, initial loading conditions and
Galiellalactone is a fungal metabolite found in the basidiomycetes Galiella rufa and the unidentified strain A111-95. It has been shown to possess promising activities as an inhibitor of the IL-6 mediated STAT3 signaling in HepG2 cells. Targeting this pathway is very important when it comes to understanding intracellular signaling and also for developing drugs for treating diseases associated with
Människor som lever under social utsatthet bor ofta i särskilda delar av städer. I grannskap som präglas av strukturella riskfaktorer som arbetslöshet, otrygg boendemiljö, trångboddhet och territoriell marginalisering (utsatta bostadsområden), tenderar också befolkningen att utsättas för social stress, ohälsa, social oro och oönskade sociala händelser i högre utsträckning än andra. Detta tydliggör
The expansion in the supply of energy services over the last couple of centuries has reduced the apparent importance of energy in economic growth despite energy being an essential production input. We demonstrate this by developing a simple extension of the Solow growth model, which we use to investigate 200 years of Swedish data. We find that the elasticity of substitution between a capital-labor
The purpose of this paper is to explore in what way the place becomes important for those who are affected by disasters or sudden death. According to human geography people have affective bonds to the concrete physical places where they are living and moving in their everyday live. Places are also constructed as meeting places where people create social relations. In the discotheque fire in Gothen
This study comprises three parts, each of which illustrates different aspects of insurance fraud. The three parts can be seen as independent presentations with their own research findings; but these parts may also be seen together as a whole, giving further perspectives regarding the subject of the study. Part I presents different procedures regarding insurance fraud. This part includes a survey w
The book describes and discusses the langguage policy and planning in Sweden 1500-1800. It treats the status of Swedish in relation to other languages in Sweden (Latin, German etc.) during that time as well as the standardization of the written language from the 16th century when the reformation bible appeared in Swedish.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur upplever och ser personer med blödarsjuka eller sockersjuka sig själva och närstående andra. I den första delen av denna avhandling studeras 27 patienter, 16 till 39 år gamla, med blödarsjuka.
