Habitus and climate change: Exploring support and resistance to sustainable welfare and social–ecological transformations in Sweden

We explore peoples' dispositions and practices with regard to social–ecological transformations based on a sustainable welfare policy strategy in Sweden. We draw on Bourdieu's concept of habitus to highlight the relations between social positions, dispositions, and position-takings. Using data from an own survey, we identify habitus types and place these in the space of social positions. We apply

Northern Khanty Clothing and Footwear Dataset (Lower Ob' Region, Northwest Siberia)

This ethnographic dataset provides a trait-based survey of variability in traditional clothing and footwear among seven Northern Khanty communities living in the Lower Ob' region of Northwestern Siberia. The data were originally gathered by A.M. Siazi and published in Russian (2000). The information was then translated and converted into the current binary dataset which records the presence/absenc

Walnuts, salmon and sika deer : Exploring the evolution and diversification of Jōmon “culinary” traditions in prehistoric Hokkaidō

The goal of this contribution is to stimulate a wider reflection on the role of food consumption practices throughout prehistory. We focussed on the Jōmon communities of Hokkaidō Island in Northern Japan since these mobile foragers underwent a process of economic diversification and intensification, eventually leading to higher levels of sedentism across the Pleistocene-Holocene transition.

Guiding the Selection of Research Methodology in Industry-Academia Collaboration in Software Engineering

Background: The literature concerning research methodologies and methods has increased in software engineering in the last decade. However, there is limited guidance on selecting an appropriate research methodology for a given research study or project.Objective: Based on a selection of research methodologies suitable for software engineering research in collaboration between industry and academia

Towards Grounded Theory Perspectives of Cognitive Load in Software Engineering

Background: The socio-technical characteristic of software engineering is acknowledged by many, while the technical side still dominates research. As software engineering is a human-intensive activity, the cognitive side of software engineering needs more exploration when trying to improve its efficiency.Aim: The aim of this study is to increase the understanding of the impact of cognitive load in

Crystal structures of Val58Ile tryptophan repressor in a domain-swapped array in the presence and absence of l-tryptophan Sprenger Janina

The crystal structures of domain-swapped tryptophan repressor (TrpR) variant Val58Ile before and after soaking with the physiological ligand l-tryptophan (l-Trp) indicate that l-Trp occupies the same location in the domain-swapped form as in native dimeric TrpR and makes equivalent residue contacts. This result is unexpected because the ligand binding-site residues arise from three separate polype

Fall-related activity avoidance among persons with late effects of polio and its influence on daily life : A mixed-methods study

Falls are common among persons with late effects of polio (LEoP), which may lead to fear of falling and activity avoidance in everyday life. Here, we assessed the occurrence of fall-related activity avoidance among persons with LEoP and explored how these experiences influenced daily life. Fourteen ambulatory persons (seven women; mean age 70 years) with LEoP participated. They responded to the mo

Professional Coping Strategies in a Temporal Perspective : A Pilot Study on How Swedish General Practitioners Deal With Challenges Inherent in Pain Management

The aim of this study was to explore how general practitioners cope with the challenges they face when trying to provide effective interventions to pain patients within the organizational context of a health center. Based on interviews with 15 Swedish providers, the study suggests that the challenges that general practitioners experience in the consultations with patients must be understood in a tThe aim of this study was to explore how general practitioners cope with the challenges they face when trying to provide effective interventions to pain patients within the organizational context of a health center.

Att göra högre studier tillgängliga - ett lärarperspektiv

Från politiskt håll finns idag en tydlig politisk intention att studenter med funktionshinder ska inkluderas i högskolornas och universitetens utbildningar. Denna artikel tar upp vad som hindrar respektive möjliggör att dessa politiska intentioner om tillgänglighet och mångfald implementeras i undervisningen. Analysen baseras på en fallstudie av en samhällsvetenskaplig institution vid ett svenskt

Tjänstemän hanterar förändringar : - kampen mot ohälsan i nytt ljus

Artikeln berör problematiken om hur tjänstemän reagerar på förändringar i sin yrkesroll. Som specifikt fall används kampen mot ohälsan och Försäkringskassans handläggare. Författaren, Stina Hall, är doktorand vid Lunds universitet i ämnet statsvetenskap. Studien som redovisas är en del av ett större projekt om tjänstemannaroller i förändring.

Persistence of hSBA titers elicited by the meningococcal serogroup B vaccine menB-FHbp for up to 4 years after a 2- or 3-dose primary series and immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability of a booster dose through 26 months

Background: To demonstrate extended protection against meningococcal serogroup B (MenB) disease after MenB-FHbp (bivalent rLP2086) vaccination, this study evaluated immunopersistence through 26 months following MenB-FHbp boosting after 2 or 3 primary doses in adolescents. Study design: This phase 3, open-label study was an extension of 3 phase 2 studies with participants aged 11–18 years randomize

Safety and immunogenicity of a prototype recombinant alpha-like protein subunit vaccine (GBS-NN) against Group B Streptococcus in a randomised placebo-controlled double-blind phase 1 trial in healthy adult women

Background: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of life-threatening infections in new-borns and may cause invasive disease, stillbirth and preterm delivery during pregnancy. While no licensed vaccine exists, maternal immunization might protect against neonatal disease and adverse pregnancy outcomes. We assessed the safety and immunogenicity of a prototype vaccine consisting of the fus

Uncoupling key determinants of hematopoietic stem cell engraftment through cell-specific and temporally controlled recipient conditioning

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are typically characterized by transplantation into irradiated hosts in a highly perturbed microenvironment. Here, we show that selective and temporally controlled depletion of resident HSCs through genetic deletion of Gata2 constitutes efficient recipient conditioning for transplantation without irradiation. Strikingly, we achieved robust engraftment of donor HSCs

Structure and dynamics of highly concentrated LiTFSI/acetonitrile electrolytes

High salt concentration has been shown to induce increased electrochemical stability in organic solvent-based electrolytes. Accompanying the change in bulk properties is a structural ordering on mesoscopic length scales and changes in the ion transport mechanism have also been suggested. Here we investigate the local structure and dynamics in highly concentrated acetonitrile electrolytes as a func

Okunskap och riskkommunikation : Att knuffa eller ge en karta

Around the world Covid-19 has been battled by trying to get the public to change how they behave: to reduce social interactions and the risks associated with them. In order to change behaviour it is not enough, however, to simply tell people what to do. Successful interventions also need to communicate how to do it. Here I dis-cuss the difference between nudges (influencing behaviour) and boosts (

Resource processing, early pottery and the emergence of Kitoi culture in Cis-Baikal : Insights from lipid residue analysis of an Early Neolithic ceramic assemblage from the Gorelyi Les habitation site, Eastern Siberia

In the early Holocene, Mesolithic hunter-gatherer communities inhabiting the Cis-Baikal region of Eastern Siberia were participating in a series of important cultural changes. These included the establishment of large cemeteries in the Angara Valley and on the Southwest shores of Lake Baikal, culminating in the formation of the distinctive Early Neolithic Kitoi cultural pattern ca. 7560 cal.
