This paper studies the cultural causes and consequences of mass emigration from Scandinavia in the 19th century. I test the hypothesis that people with individualistic traits were more likely to emigrate, because they faced lower costs of leaving established social networks behind. Data from population censuses and passenger lists confirm this hypothesis. Children who grew up in households with no
Background: There is still a lack of knowledge regarding the natural course of resolution of hydronephrosis after pyeloplasty, and no consensus exists on how resolution of hydronephrosis is defined or when resolution is expected to occur. Objective: To determine when resolution of hydronephrosis occurs following pyeloplasty, by type of obstruction and by surgical approach. Methods: This retrospect
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy is a type of molecular radiotherapy that has been used in the treatment of patients with neuroendocrine tumours for over two decades. It is not until recently, however, that it has achieved regulatory approval. The currently approved treatment regimen is a one-size-fits-all scheme, i.e. all patients receive a fixed activity of the radiopharmaceutical (177Lu-DO

The study of diffusion anisotropy via diffusion NMR was pioneered 40 years ago in systems pertaining to the field of porous media. Since then, its combination with MRI has attracted overwhelming interest within the neuroscience community as a way to perform non-invasive in vivo assessment of tissue microstructure. However, most conventional diffusion MRI techniques measured diffusion anisotropy me
Universal Design (UD) is a design approach that recognises and anticipates diversity as a fundamental human condition. UD is also frequently referred to in relation to the social dimension of sustainable development. Central to both UD and sustainability is the way “everyone,” as the target of UD and sustainability goals, is understood. The purpose of the study is to identify how UD’s “everyone” i
I argue that given a plausible reading of John Williams’s Stoner (2012 [1965]) the novel throws light on the demands and costs of pursuing a strategy for self-realisation along Platonic lines which seeks unification through the adoption of a single exclusive end in a manner that emulates the Socratic maieutic teacher. The novel does not explicitly argue either for or against such a strategy but ra
Despite a wealth of studies on effects of switch locations in code-switching (CS), we know relatively little about how structural factors such as switch location and extralinguistic factors such as directionality preferences may jointly modulate CS (cf., Stell & Yapko, 2015). Previous findings in the nominal domain suggest that within-constituent switching (within the noun phrase) may be easie
Brief account of the history of Filmform foundation, that began as a club for cinephiles and amateur filmmakers and now is a nationwide distribution agency and archive for experimental film and video art.
För att hantera samhällets globala och mest komplexa utmaningar krävs ofta en nära samverkan mellan forskning och samhälle, ibland även kallat ett akademiskt engagemang. Frågan är vilka former denna samverkan ska ta, om forskningen även ska nå fram till politiska beslutsfattare. Detta kapitel har redogjort för hur samverkan mellan den statliga kommittén Tillitsdelegationen och akademin organiserad
Was bedeutet es, eine iranische Komponistin zu sein? Anahita Abbasi, Niloufar Nourbakhsh, und Aida Shirazi wurden alle zwischen 1985 und 1992 geboren, leben heute in den USA und gehören zu den ersten Frauen aus dem Iran, die sich trotz vieler Hindernisse im Geburtsland und auf internationaler Ebene – etwa den strengen Sanktionen und Trumps Travel Ban – eine erfolgreiche Karriere als Komponistinnen
