Background: In the field of movement disorders, what you see (phenotype) is seldom what you get (genotype). Whereas 1 phenotype was previously associated to 1 gene, the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has facilitated an exponential increase in disease-causing genes and genotype-phenotype correlations, and the "one-phenotype-many-genes" paradigm has become prominent.Objectives: To highli
This chapter presents a socio-historical perspective on the origin and development of the Swedish school field and the teaching professions. With Bourdieu as a source of inspiration, the school field is defined as a system of specialized institutions and agents (church, state, academy, teachers’ unions) who, based on different interests and positions, compete for recognition and power to define th
We compare classic scalar temporal difference learning with three new distributional algorithms for playing the game of 5-in-a-row using deep neural networks: distributional temporal difference learning with constant learning rate, and two distributional temporal difference algorithms with adaptive learning rate. All these algorithms are applicable to any two-player deterministic zero sum game and
Two studies conducted in Sweden tested predictions from the intersectional invisibility hypothesis for groups at the intersection of gender and sexual orientation. Results show that gender prototypes include an assumed heterosexual orientation, and that representations of sexual minority groups include a more complex interplay of gender and sexual orientation.
The current research studied effects of different gender expressions (non-normative or normative)in two phases of recruitment: applicant attraction and applicant evaluation. Experiment 1 (N = 404) investigated how Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) statements in an organisation description that emphasized gender as binary (women and men), gender as diverse (multi-gender), or gender as irrelevant (
This article examines the role of policy entrepreneurs in promoting change in flood risk mitigation at the local level in Sweden through a comparative study of two Swedish municipalities with different approaches to flood risk governance; as a technical issue or a social issue. The municipality in which flood risk mitigation is addressed as a social issue exhibits a larger size of the network miti
BackgroundIn health care workers SARS-CoV-2 has been shown to be an occupational health risk, often associated with transmission between health care workers. Yet, insufficient information on transmission dynamics has been presented to elucidate the precise risk factors for contracting SARS-CoV-2 in this group.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, we investigated association between questionnaire a
The Riksbank, founded in 1668, is the world's oldest central bank. It has played a central role in Swedish economic policymaking for centuries and enjoys a great deal of confidence among the public. This chapter explains how the Riksbank became what it is today: an independent and widely respected institution. The bank's high status has emerged because Sweden's political elites regard the delegati
