Many international studies show that adolescents in coercive institutional care display high prevalences of mental disorders, especially in the form of disruptive behavior disorders [including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD), oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder], anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. High degrees of overlap across mental disorders have also been r

Abstract Conclusion: When measured together, it seems that vision and proprioception as well as position of the vestibular organ affect postural sway, vision the most. Mediolateral (ML) sway does not seem to be influenced by the position of the vestibular organ. Objective: To investigate how postural sway was affected by provocation of vision, by the position of the vestibular organ, and by provoc

Conversation of Lithuanian philosopher and writer Tomas Kavaliauskas with Niklas Bernsand and Andreas Johansson Heinö about Swedish identity, multiculturalism and historical memory. Text in Lithuanian.

In this paper, we report the results of a systematic study of the scaling effects of Young's modulus of nanowires of body-centered cubic iron. The investigation is performed by employing molecular statics tensile simulations. Two different crystallographic orientations are studied. The simulations show that there is a size dependence in Young's modulus, where the different crystallographic orienta

This paper studies the potential of spatial multiplexing for measured 60 GHz radio channels by estimating the number of eigenchannels. It is well-known that the number of available eigenchannels is dependent on a propagation channel condition as well as antenna array conguration. We evaluate a spatial degrees- of-freedom (SDoF) metric that depends on the propagation conditions and the antenna aper

This article focuses on the cultural and political landscape of the Danish islands of Lolland and Falster in the Middle Ages. The close economic and dynastic relationships between medieval Denmark and the Slavic area south of the Baltic Sea, as well as Slavic settlement on the islands,contributed to the emergence of complex realities and attitudes, as well as a particular ‘inbetweenness’of the isl

BACKGROUND: The Nottingham Health Profile index of Distress (NHPD) has been proposed as a generic undimensional 24-item measure of illness-related distress that is embedded in the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP). Data indicate that the NHPD may have psychometric advantages to the 6-dimensional NHP profile scores. Detailed psychometric evaluations are, however, lacking. Furthermore, to support the

INTRODUCTION: More knowledge is needed about structural factors in society that affect risky sexual behaviors. Educational institutions such as universities provide an opportune arena for interventions among young people. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sociodemographic and religious factors and their impact on sexual behavior among university students in Uganda.

This dissertation has three major ingredients: the experience of love, two Swedish middle-class couples, and the letters they wrote to each other during their courtship - that is, from the time of their first dream of a relationship, and their eventual marriage. The purpose is to use a biographical study of the two couples, Erik and Sophia and Hanna and Harald, and through their letters gain knowl
