Abstract in French Cet article a deux objectif. À un premier niveau, nous présentons un survol de quatre aspects du DP français et leur acquisition par des apprenants adultes suédophones, à savoir l’existence d’un stade de noms dits « nus », le statut syntaxique de l’article défini, le placement de l’adjectif et l’accord en genre. À un deuxième niveau, nous souhaitons illustrer une méthode de trav

Electricity has been regarded as a typical example of a general purpose technology and important for the surge both in energy productivity and overall productivity in the American economy in the 1920s. This view was challenged by Nicholas and Moser (2004) based on patent statistics. We argue that other methods are required for studying productivity effects and propose cointegration analyses. We de

The basis for the article is the notion that man cannot be seen as simply another part of the ecosystem: human actions must be understood in terms of human culture. Culture is the filter through which humans see and interact with their environment. This means that human actions are not always the most "economical" in terms of adapting to natural conditions. In fact, sometimes the effort to fulfill

Empirical findings indicate a need of support for environmental management within the manufacturing industry for improving the environmental performance of their production systems. This paper elaborates on a generic, three step visualization tool, here called Green Performance Map (GPM). The GPM adds to the framework of ISO 14001, providing the user with a systematic procedure to visualize enviro

This study investigated how selected packaging suppliers viewed innovations in food packaging, their role and the roles of other actors in the chain. Six companies and ten respondents were selected based on suggestions from previous interviews of retailers and food manufacturers. Data collection consisted of responses to specific questions followed by responses to open-ended questions. The results

An electron storage ring acts as an approximate point source in the far-infrared spectral region with a much greater intensity than provided by conventional black body radiators. Far-infrared synchrotron radiation is therefore suitable for high-resolution spectroscopic measurements of low-frequency vibrations for metastable molecules such as the intermolecular vibrational modes of hydrogen-bonded

There has been a significant rise in the number of patents originating from academic environments. However, current conceptualizations of academic patents provide a largely homogenous approach to define this entrepreneurial form of technology transfer. In this study we develop a novel categorization framework that identifies three subsets of academic patents which are conceptually distinct from ea

Risk disclosure is generally regarded as crucial in order for investors to make informed decisions in the resource allocation process. Our study is the first to empirically investigate the value-relevance of corporate risk disclosure. We focus on the disclosure of foreign exchange (FX) risk, which is an activity notorious for its lack of transparency. Our empirical analysis involves a FX risk disc

Despite advances in anti-platelet treatments, there still exists an early increase in both ischemic as well as bleeding events following primary PCI in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Platelet inhibition data of different anti-platelet treatments in the acute phase of a myocardial infarction might offer some insight into these problems. The aim of this study was to evalua
