Stylistic Fronting (SF) is a process that fronts various types of non-subjects to the preverbal position in subjectless clauses (“that gone have”, etc.). With the exception of Icelandic and to some extent Faroese, SF has disappeared from Scandinavian varieties. It is commonly assumed that even in Icelandic it is formal and old fashioned, indicating that it might be on its way out of this language

Abstract - Vol. I In this Volume of the thesis, which consists of two volumes, a risk analysis framework for application in the maritime transport system of packaged dangerous goods (PDG) is presented. In many countries, dangerous goods risks have been ranked high among public concerns. Such concerns are mainly due to the increasing volume of dangerous goods, human safety and health and environme

Baylor and collaborators have demonstrated (Baylor & Plant, 2005; Baylor et. al., 2006) that the use of virtual pedagogical coaches portrayed as young and attractive women can increase the willingness of female students to apply for technical education and to help increase their selfefficacy. Pedagogical processes such as role modelling and identification seem to be involved (cf. Bandura, 1977

I essän diskuteras den nutida svenska kulturoffentlighetens funktioner med utgångspunkt i mottagandet av Yahya Hassans debutdiktsamling samt Victoria Benedictssons författarskap. Hur en nutida offentlighet förändras jämförs med hur en kvinno-offentlighet skapades på 1880-talet.

Filoviruses belong to the group of nonsegmented, negative-sense (NNS) RNA viruses and are members of the order Mononegavirales along with the rhabdo-, paramyxo-, nyami-, and bornaviruses. Mononegaviruses share a general mechanism to replicate and transcribe their genomes, reflected in functionally homologous proteins and a similar genome structure. Although basic mechanisms are similar between rha

Price controls are used in many regulated markets and well recognized as the cause of market inefficiency. This paper examines a practical housing market in the presence of price controls and provides a solution to the problem of how houses should be efficiently allocated among agents through a system of prices. We demonstrate that the dynamic auction by Talman and Yang (2008) always finds a core

In this thesis, I have studied continuously managed semi-natural meadows in south-central Sweden. The purpose was 1) to make a survey of meadow vegetation in the region 2) to compare two investigations of the vegetation, one from 1963-1966 and one from 1990 3) to investigate experimentally in the field how increased nitrogen supply rate as well as changed management intensity effects the nitrogen

Abstract: In Chapter 3, written together with MimmiBarmark, we try to estimate the extent to which students’choices are guided and restricted by structural and symbolicboundaries, in order to point out the possible reasons forschool segregation between the different Natural Scienceschools. The analysis is divided into seven steps and basedprimarily not only on survey data, but also on interviewswi

I artikeln kommer brottsoffrens kränkningsersättning att analyseras ur ett rättssociologiskt perspektiv. Ersättningen kommer att relateras till den svenska kriminalpolitiska utvecklingen, till olika samhälls- och rättsvetenskapliga teorier och begrepp vilka kan vara användbara för en fördjupad förståelse av ersättningen utifrån skadeståndsrättsligt, viktimologiskt och kriminalpolitiskt perspektiv.

Flexibility is a desired quality of software processes. Process flexibility implies a capability to adapt to new contexts. Another aspect of flexibility is the cost of maintaining process effectiveness as new situations arise. A lack of preparedness for future events may constitute a high risk to a software development organization. This paper presents a method for assessing the flexibility of an
