This report presents an overview of a set of data collection methods that can be used for the study of wildfire evacuation during community drills. A demonstration of a set of suitable data collection methods is performed during an evacuation drill conducted at Roxborough Park, Colorado (USA) in June 2024. Data collection methods reviewed and adopted included both quantitative and qualitative meth

At the heart of this research are relational encounters between people and textile materials. As the title, Crafting Material Bodies, indicates, the research explores how human bodies are crafted by material bodies (costume) and vice versa. In the research textile materials and people are my co-creators and as co-creators they are invited to relate to, affect and become affected by other human bod

The editorial discusses the importance of Special Issues devoted to a particular topic or theme and welcomes readers to this Special Issue, ‘Contemporary Scandinavian Art Cinema and Screen Cultures in Transition’, curated by Joel Frykholm and Anna Estera Mrozewicz.

Dietary diversity has been widely used as a proxy indicator for micronutrient adequacy. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), including Rwanda, women are at high risk of inadequate micronutrient intake resulting from poorly diversified diets. This study was conducted to examine the factors associated with women's dietary diversity, with emphasis on homestead production diversity and market

Both in the social and natural sciences, methodologies have been developed to deal with relatively stable conditions, where findings can be validated based on past experiences. At a time when both social and natural phenomena are rapidly changing, new approaches are urgently needed to produce knowledge for systemic change, inform high-stakes decisions, and enable sustainability transitions in the

Background: The affective profiles model, operationalized as the combination of individuals’ high/low positive/negative affective experience, is a well-established method for providing insights into adolescents’ affective functioning and self-regulation: self-fulfilling (high positive affect, low negative affect), high affective (high positive affect, high negative affect), low affective (low posi

Background: Individuals’ perception of their work climate is expected to strongly influence personnel’s organizational commitment. However, the evidence about the association between organizational commitment and important outcomes, such as performance at work and turnover, is mixed. If this was not enough, little attention has been paid to how individual differences in basic personality (e.g., in

CoSAXS is a state-of-the-art SAXS/WAXS beamline exploiting the high brilliance of the MAX IV 3 GeV synchrotron. By coupling advances in sample environment control with fast X-ray detectors, millisecond time-resolved scattering methods can follow structural dynamics of proteins in solution. In the present work, four sample environments are discussed. A sample environment for combined SAXS with UV–v

Innovation plays a crucial role in shaping technological, industrial, and social progress in modern societies. The quantification of the benefits technologies offer in specific decision-making scenarios can foster their innovation process providing a guide in their development and diffusion. Decision Value Analysis provides metrics to assess the value of technologies for increasing maturity levels

High-resolution x-ray tomography is a common technique for biomedical research using synchrotron sources. With advancements in laboratory x-ray sources, an increasing number of experiments can be performed in the lab. In this paper, the design, implementation, and verification of a laboratory setup for x-ray nano-computed tomography is presented using a nano-focus x-ray source and high geometric m

This paper aims to contribute to the field of policy enactment studies with a deepened understanding of the significance of the students when a pedagogical vision is enacted. The paper is based on a single case study using observations, surveys, interviews, and document studies. Informed by policy enactment theory, we analyse the students’ role in enacting the vision at the newly established Newsc

Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of saphenous vein grafts (SVG) is associated with poor outcomes and is often regarded as inferior to native vessel PCI. We investigated clinical outcomes of SVG-PCI using contemporary drug-eluting stents (DES), in a complete, nationwide population. Methods: The complete Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR) was used to id

In five sentence continuation studies we investigated how different forms of negation (negative quantifier, clausal negation, lexical negation) impact discourse structure in Swedish. We looked at what set of referents (the reference set for which some property holds, or the complement set, for which the property does not hold) speakers considered most noteworthy (speaker salient), and what form th

Misogynistic attitudes have surged in the past few years and the “manosphere” – an online milieu promoting toxic and rigid masculinity norms – is often seen as an arena for spreading such ideas. Within the manosphere, manfluencers (i.e., male influencers who espouse misogynistic content and beliefs) are known for trying to persuade men to view women and feminism as a threat to their masculinity an

This study presents a novel approach for object detection and tracking in aerial images using a multi-scale Northern Goshawk Pyramid Generative Adversarial Network (NGPGAN). The research evaluates different algorithms and features to identify people, trees, cars, and buildings in real-world drone videos, addressing challenges in pinpointing specific objects among multiple entities. Object detectio

Brain connectivity arises from interactions across biophysical scales, ranging from molecular to cellular to anatomical to network level. To date, there has been little progress toward integrated analysis across these scales. To bridge this gap, from a unique cohort of 98 individuals, we collected antemortem neuroimaging and genetic data, as well as postmortem dendritic spine morphometric, proteom

What if Women Ruled the World? Yael Bartana stages this question in her performative piece Two Minutes to Midnight. The all-female government of a fictional nation is tasked with addressing an imminent nuclear threat posed by a foreign power. A panel composed of actresses and real-life experts in defense, law, politics, and psychology gathers in a democratic “peace room.” This space reflects the t
