"Do you see Yonder cloud?" - On priming concepts, a new test, and a familiar outcome. Reply to Lucas et al. : "Familiarity or conceptual priming? Good question! Comment on Stenberg, Hellman, Johansson, and Rosén (2009)"

Lucas, Voss, and Paller sympathize with our intentions but disagree with our findings. They argue that a relation between frequency and conceptual priming may have been obscured by methodological details in our second experiment, therefore failing to complete a bridge between conceptual priming and FN400 with name frequency as the mediator. However, renewed inspections of our experiment and a new

Data on plasma tumour and metabolism related proteins’ potential in differentiation of HFpEF-PH from PAH and in prognosis of left heart failure patients with pulmonary hypertension

The data in the current paper constitutes supplementary material to our article entitled “Plasma tumour and metabolism related biomarkers AMBP, LPL and Glyoxalase I differentiate heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with pulmonary hypertension from pulmonary arterial hypertension” Ahmed et al. (2021). The study investigated 69 plasma tumour- and metabolism related proteins in healthy con

The dis/ablement of bodies in semiotic landscapes – a citizen science approach

Much of our built environment is constructed to accommodate ‘normate’ (Garland-Thomson 1996; Hamraie 2017) bodies. This fact may remain invisible to normate users of public space, much as the ordering of human interaction through categorisation is often invisible (Bowker & Star 1999).

Recognizing diversity within everyone’s lived experience: Strengthening the theoretical foundations of Universal Design

Recognizing diversity within everyone’s lived experience:Strengthening the theoretical foundations of Universal DesignThis paper situates Universal Design (UD) within the framework ofsocial justice theory, drawing Honneth’s conceptualisation of socialjustice as mutual recognition. It takes as a starting point theperspective that UD requires a robust theorisation and rationale tosupport implementat

Critical Scenario Identification for Testing of Autonomous Driving Systems

Background: Autonomous systems have received considerable attention from academia and are adopted by various industrial domains, such as automotive, avionics, etc. As many of them are considered safety-critical, testing is indispensable to verify their reliability and safety. However, there is no common standard for testing autonomous systems efficiently and effectively. Thus new approaches for te

Modern technology against falls – A description of the MoTFall project

To meet future challenges from an older and physically less active population innovative solutions are needed. Modern Technology against Falls (MoTFall) aims to prevent falls, increase physical activity and improve self-rated health among older people by means of an information and communication technology based system. The project has developed technology-based solutions, focusing on person-centr

Sustainability science must challenge common sense : A response to Bodin (2021)

In this comment, we respond to the claim of (Bodin, Sustain Sci 16: 2151–2155, 2021) that sustainability science, as a research community, has begun to “lean to the left” in a problematic manner. On one hand, we remain unconvinced by the examples cited as indications for this tendency, and argue for caution in making such judgements. On the other hand, we hold that that there may be reasons for se

Sibling Alcohol Use Disorder Is Associated With Increased Risk for Suicide Attempt

The association between having a sibling diagnosed with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and risk for suicide attempt may be attributable to shared genetic liability between AUD and suicidal behavior, effects of environmental exposure to a sibling’s AUD, or both. To distinguish between these alternatives, we conducted a series of Cox regression models using data derived from Swedish population-based reg

Search for AL amyloidosis risk factors using Mendelian randomization

In amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis, amyloid fibrils derived from immunoglobulin light chain are deposited in many organs, interfering with their function. The etiology of AL amyloidosis is poorly understood. Summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of multiple phenotypes can be exploited by Mendelian randomization (MR) methodology to search for factors influencingALamyloidosi

Liberalism in Cambodia : Broken Lineages

This article seeks to recover strands of liberalism in Cambodian politics from the period leading up to Independence onwards. It uses Bell’s (2014) summative conception of the liberal tradition, which understands liberalism contextually as a constructed and contested historical phenomenon. The starting point of the analysis is liberalism from the vantage point of the present: today’s half-hearted
