Discourse for Normalising What? The Learning Organization and the Workplace Trade Union Response

Recent critics of organizational learning and its normative offshoot the ‘learning organization’ have posited that conceptualisations of organizations based on knowledge and learning constitute a rhetorical device enabling elites to assert different forms of control through a new ‘normalising discourse’. The paper, whilst welcoming such critique, nevertheless asks whether it is adequate to dismiss

Older people and local public transit: Mobility effects of accessibility improvements in Sweden

Several transportation factors concerning older and disabled people are under transition in Sweden at present. By the year 2010, the public transit system must be fully accessible for all passengers. The present survey studied older people, in order to assess the perceived travel opportunities. Questionnaires were sent to a sample of older citizens (75+) in three Swedish mid-sized municipalities.

Realism in actor’s and observers confidence judgments: The effect of considering the actor’s arguments and/or confidence

The present study investigated the difference between Actors’ and Observers’ realism in confidence and frequency judgments of general knowledge assertions, and how types of information given to the Observers about the Actors’ choice of answers affect that difference in the realism in confidence judgments. In general, compared with the Actors, the Observers showed higher accuracy and higher confide

Dataspelande inte orsak till dåliga skolresultaten

Vi forskare som står bakom den här artikeln har tidigare kritiserat debatten kring nät- och dataspelsberoende för att vara missvisande. Vi menar att nättid eller dataspelande i sig inte har något att göra med vare sig försämrade studieresultat eller rubbad dygnsrytm. Forskningen har på senare år antytt att överdrivet dataspelande bör ses som ett uttryck för underliggande problem, på samma sätt som

Modeling of plasticity at large strains

This thesis is concerned with various aspects of the constitutive modeling of plasticity. Both theoretical issues and issues related to the numerical implementation of the constitutive models are addressed. An approach to the modeling of kinematic hardening plasticity when large strains are present, taking the microstructure into account, is developed. Kinematic hardening is modeled using a varia
