In the normal case, a reflexive pronoun is bound within its containing clause. More exceptionally, a reflexive is instead related to a binder in a higher clause – a phenomenon known as long distance binding. Long distance binding can be found in Norwegian, but as I will show here, with considerable variation between speakers. Quite a few speakers accept long distance binding only across indefinite

This work describes the research conducted in order to assess possible changes and uncertainties in future energy performance of the residential building stock in Stockholm. The investigation is performed on a sample of 153 existing and statistically selected buildings and covers the period of 1961-2100. Four uncertainty factors of the climate have been considered: global climate models, regional

Many pathogenic bacteria have been reported to interact with human platelets to mediate platelet activation and aggregation. The importance of these interactions to the immune response or pathogenesis of bacterial infection has not been clarified. It may therefore be valuable to assess platelet responses mediated by diverse strains of bacteria. Here, I describe a method to study platelet integrin

We consider optimal channel shortener design for reduced-state soft-output Viterbi equalizer (RS-SOVE) in singlecarrier (SC) systems. To use RS-SOVE, three receiver filters need to be designed: a prefilter, a target response and a feedback filter. The collection of these three filters are commonly referred to as the “channel shortener”. Conventionally, the channel shortener is designed to transfor

Antenna current optimization is often used to analyze the optimal perfor-mance of antennas. Antenna performance can be quantied in e.g., minimumQ-factor and maximal gain over Q-factor ratio. The performance of MIMOantennas is more involved and a single parameter is, in general, not sucientto quantify it. Here, the capacity of an idealized channel is used as the mainperformance quantity. An optimiz

Pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) include synaptic and neuronal degeneration and the presence of extracellular deposits of amyloid-beta (Abeta) in senile plaques in the cerebral cortex. Although these brain lesions may be seen also in aged non-demented individuals, the increase in brain Abeta is believed by many to represent the earliest event in the disease process. Accumulating

Background Specialist training provides skilled workforce for service delivery. Stroke medicine has evolved rapidly in the past years. No prior information exists on background or training of stroke doctors globally. Aims To describe the specialties that represent stroke doctors, their training requirements, and the scientific organizations ensuring continuous medical education. Methods The World

The Swedish educational policy for upper secondary English, which took effect in 2011 and adopts a globalised perspective on language, is explored with respect to how skills and awareness related to local, national, and international roles of English are represented in policy documents. A discourse analytic approach to language policy is used to offer a critical reading of the national syllabus fo

The public sector in Sweden has been an early adopter of public management reforms and the health care sector has been in the forefront of the development. In recent years, process orientation has been one key component in this endeavour. Studies in two health care organizations show that an increased focus on horizontal processes leads to changes in the management control system. However, it also
