This paper develops a conceptual framework grounded in economic theory to examine how quasi-markets differ from traditional markets along five key dimensions: (1) revenues, costs, and profits, (2) the matching of supply and demand, (3) competition, (4) structural change, and (5) rent-seeking.

This study examined the prevalence, stability, and fluidity of sexual orientation as well as the prevalence of gender discontent. From a community sample (i.e., all adolescents of the age cohort were invited), this study analyzed data from 1513 adolescents (50.5% females), who replied to questions about sexual attraction on at least one of three occasions (age 14: n = 623; age 15: n = 1322; and ag

This paper presents a reflexive, transdisciplinary reassessment of the Nabberör boat grave, dated to the 8th century CE, on the Baltic island of Öland. The osteological material and the grave goods are carefully re-examined and recontextualised using a multiproxy approach, including new archaeological, bioarchaeological, zooarchaeological, isotopic, and aDNA analyses. The results reveal a multiple
