This article focuses on the structural establishment of Swedish women’s ice hockey during the early 1980s and the years leading up to the first organised women’s hockey league in Sweden. Mainly, the article is based on archive material from The Swedish Ice Hockey Association, especially two committees that were appointed to work to establish women’s hockey between the years of 1981 and 1984: The WThis article focuses on the structural establishment of Swedish women’s icehockey during the early 1980s and the years leading up to the first organisedwomen’s hockey league in Sweden.

För att höja Sveriges anseende utomlands lät Erik Dahlbergh sammanställa ett praktverk över alla sevärdheter i den nyblivna nordeuropeiska stormakten. Dess inflytande som visuell kanon kan knappast överskattas.

Hydrogen-fuelled technologies for home heating and cooking may provide a low-carbon solution for decarbonising parts of the global housing stock. For the transition to transpire, the attitudes and perceptions of consumers must be factored into policy making efforts. However, empirical studies are yet to explore potential levels of consumer heterogeneity regarding domestic hydrogen acceptance. In r

The feasibility of South Africa's just energy transition, as dictated by the speed of phasing out coal and scaling up renewables, will rest on a range of techno-economic, socio-political, and socio-technical factors. Interactions between these dimensions of the transition carry significant implications for energy justice. In response, this paper proposes the Just Transition Feasibility Framework (

As part of its efforts to secure a ‘net-zero society’, the UK government will take a strategic decision on the role of hydrogen in decarbonising homes within the next years. While scholars have recently advanced the social science research agenda on hydrogen technology acceptance, studies are yet to engage with the prospective dynamics of adopting ‘hydrogen homes’. In response, this study examines

As the global energy transition progresses, a range of drivers and barriers will continue to shape consumer attitudes and behavioural intentions towards emerging low-carbon technologies. The innovation-decision process for technologies composing the residential sector such as hydrogen-fuelled heating and cooking appliances is inherently governed by the complex interplay between perceptual, cogniti

Hydrogen energy technologies are envisioned to play a critical supporting role in global decarbonisation. While low-carbon hydrogen is primarily targeted for reducing industrial emissions, alongside decarbonising parts of the transport sector, environmental benefits could also be achieved in the residential context. Presently, gas-dependent countries such as Japan and the United Kingdom are assess

The UK Hydrogen Strategy (August 2021) and subsequent Heat and Buildings Strategy (October 2021) affirm that a strategic decision is set to be taken by 2026 on the prospect of residential decarbonisation via ‘hydrogen homes’. As this decision date draws nearer, quantitative insights on consumer perceptions of hydrogen-fuelled heating and cooking appliances remain limited. The existing knowledge de

This article explores the transformational potential of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly generative AI (genAI) - large language models (LLMs), chatbots, and AI-driven smart assistants yet to emerge - to reshape human cognition, memory, and creativity. First, the paper investigates the potential of genAI tools to enable a new form of human-computer co-remembering, based on prompting rathe

INTRODUCTION: Epidemiological evidence suggests the association of preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) at baseline with the risk of heart failure (HF), however, the associations between transitions of PRISm and incident HF remain to be clarified. Furthermore, the causal relationship and underlying biological mechanisms linking PRISm and HF are unclear.OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to invest

This review covers recent advances (2023–2024) in neuroimaging research into the pathophysiology, progression, and treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias (ADRD). Despite the rapid emergence of blood-based biomarkers, neuroimaging continues to be a vital area of research in ADRD. Here, we discuss neuroimaging as a powerful tool to topographically visualize and quantify amyloid,

Plurisexual people report worse mental health compared to heterosexual, lesbian, and gay people, but it is unclear how well-being compares between people with different plurisexual identities and demographic characteristics. We therefore conducted an online survey with 956 plurisexual individuals identifying as bisexual (n = 563), pansexual (n = 226) or bi- and pansexual (n = 194), measuring quali

Parametric design systems serve as powerful assistive technologies in the design process by aiding the generation of a vast number of design alternatives. However, with their focus on low-level engineering and structural form, parametric systems do not automatically fulfil cognitively founded people-centred behavioural design criteria. We propose a precedent-based design approach for parametric sy

Generalist parasites must adapt to diverse host environments to ensure their survival and transmission. These adaptations can involve fixed genetic responses, transcriptional plasticity, or epigenetic mechanisms. The avian malaria parasite Plasmodium homocircumflexum offers an ideal model for studying transcriptional variation across hosts. We experimentally inoculated P. homocircumflexum into dif

Policing roles require specific work-related characteristics (WRCs) critical for effective performance. This study identifies key WRCs for various roles within the Swedish Police—patrol officers, criminal investigators, Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Teams, police chiefs, and negotiators—by analyzing data from 425 active-duty officers (30% response rate). We use the Occupational Information Ne

At the close of the sixteenth century, Archduke Charles of Inner Austria determined that only his eldest son was to succeed him. Barring his younger sons from rule was a break with the Habsburg tradition of partible inheritance and would prove to be an important step towards the introduction of primogeniture. How did the Austrian Habsburgs deal with this change in succession practice? This contrib
