In this paper, a distinctly subjectivist analysis of the nature of relational goodness or goodness for is proposed. Like the generic subjectivist analysis of value, the proposal is to analyse value in terms of attitudes. Specifically, the proposed analysis of goodness for appeals to a special kind of attitude: namely, so-called for-someone’s-sake attitudes. Unlike other analyses in the literature

Diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta methods (DIRK) are evaluated and compared to standard solution procedures for finite strain crystal plasticity boundary value problems. The structure of the DIRK implementation is similar to that of a conventional implicit backward Euler scheme. It is shown that only very small modifications are required in order to transform the numerical scheme from one into the o

This paper reports a detailed study of techniques for identifying boosted, hadronically decaying W bosons using 20.3 fb (Formula presented.) of proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy (Formula presented.). A range of techniques for optimising the signal jet mass resolution are combined with various jet substructure variables. The results o

Background: There is variability in the use of sedatives and analgesics in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). We aimed to investigate the use of analgesics and sedatives and the management of neonatal pain and distress. Methods: This was a global, prospective, cross-sectional study. A survey was distributed May–November 2022. The primary outcome of this research was to compare results between

Samhällets storskaliga digitalisering har inte bara påverkat människors vardag och yrkesliv, den har också påverkat undervisning och lärande på ett genomgripande plan – inte minst när det gäller det kunskapsbyggande som tar plats i skolor och klassrum, under ledning av lärare. Under de senaste decennierna har pappersbaserat material och laborationsutrustning ersatts av applikationer och digitala vThis thesis is about learning. It is about how younger students (6–12 years old) usethings on-screen (representations, feedback, or virtual characters) and how they handle digitalised learning environments. I have explored this subject using many perspectives and theories, not only focusing on handheld tools and physical or virtual materials, but also on the social interactions behind the screens,

This paper introduces a conceptual framework: the CPS triangle, which has evolved over four years of research on ‘older people meet robots’. It is a synthesis of domestication theory, modern social practice theory and empirical data. Case studies on the domestication of one current technology, the robotic vacuum cleaner, and two emergent technologies, the eHealth system and the service robot, prov

People’s belief that one or more environmentally friendly items that are added to a set of conventional items can reduce the total environmental impact of these items (the negative footprint illusion) could lead to unwanted environmental consequences. An averaging bias seems to underpin this illusion: people make their estimates based on the average of the environmental impact produced by the item

As the field of human-agent interaction (HAI) matures, it becomes essential to acknowledge and address the differing multidisciplinary approaches that support it to favor a common interdisciplinary understanding, thus adopting a broader methodological and epistemological perspective. The field of HAI recognizes that agents are not merely isolated technologies but embedded within society. Consequen

There has been a substantial rise in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases after adjusting the dynamic zero-COVID policy in China. We conducted a survey to investigate the self-perceived symptom profile and its association with vaccination status during this outbreak. There were 552 individuals in this survey. The infected individuals displayed various symptoms associated with different factor

An increasingly competitive environment, technological advancements and globalisation are a few of the factors placing higher demands on today’s company activities, e.g. development, production and distribution processes. Company activities have hereby become a complex system, even more so if one company is seen as part of a network of companies. The aim of this article is to present and elaborate

The aim of this study is to describe in what ways variation can be used in learning situations for pupils with autism to evoke deep understanding of activities in natural settings. The combination of variation and structure was designed to make each pupil discern new aspects of their learning objects. The analysis of the six participants’ learning was based on the variation theory, and focused on

Background and PurposeIn a previous study comparing the amount of visual field damage at presentation in patients having open-angle glaucoma (OAG) identified through screening and in patients diagnosed in routine clinical practice in the 1990s, the damage was considerably worse in the clinically diagnosed patients. In the present study we compare visual field damage at presentation in the same 402

Satellite dark field (SDF) imaging is used to show that there is a definite change in symmetry on moving across the two-phase region separating the so-called "defect fluorite" and C-type sesquioxide solid solution regions in (1 - x)CeO2 · xRO1.5 and (1 - x )ZrO2 · xRO1.5 systems. SDF images of the "defect fluorite" side of the two-phase region are characterized by a microdomain texture on the ∼100

The 8B+64Zn reaction at 38.5 MeV has been studied at HIE-ISOLDE CERN to investigate proton halo effect on the reaction dynamics. For the first time it was used the only existing post-accelerated 8B beam. The measured elastic scattering angular distribution showed a small suppression of the Coulomb-nuclear interference peak, opposite to what observed for the one-neutron halo nucleus 11Be on the sam

The academic response to Bourdieu's sociology of law has mainly followed his Weberian focus on the role of legal professionals in state transformations. However, rereading Bourdieu's “The Force of Law” through the lens of its references and relating it to the sociology of law “of the moment” (i.e. that of the 1980s), it becomes clear that Bourdieu's sociology of law is more sophisticated than has

The Nordic countries offer an ideal case study of the COVID-19 pandemic due to their comparability, high data quality, and variable mitigations. We investigated the age- and sex-specific mortality patterns during 2020–2021 for the five Nordic countries and analysed the total age- and sex-adjusted excess deaths, ratios of actual to expected death rates, and age-standardized excess death estimates.
