I den aktuella studien undersöktes barns förmåga att med hjälp av verktyg använda tidigare kunskaper för att lösa en ny uppgift, genom en så kallad analog överföring. Uppgiften ställde krav barnets förmåga att bortse från vilseledande visuell information, till förmån för verktygets funktionalitet. 90 barn mellan 24 och 55 månader rekryterades från sju förskoleverksamheter i en svensk kommun. BarneChildren’s ability to access previous knowledge and use tools when solving a novel analogical task was examined. When confronted with the task, the children had to ignore misleading visual tool information and attend to its functionality. 90 children between 24 and 55 months from seven preschools were recruited. The study’s design was quasi-experimental and factorial, and the children were confron

Den 1 juli 2020 infördes ett nytt regelverk gällande rapporteringspliktiga arrangemang i Sverige och i samband med detta infördes även en uppgiftsskyldighet att lämna uppgifter om rapporteringspliktiga arrangemang till Skatteverket. För att ett arrangemang ska vara rapporteringspliktigt ska det vara gränsöverskridande samt innehålla minst ett kännetecken. Ett kännetecken är en egenskap i ett arranOn the July 1, 2020, a new framework of rules regarding reportable arrangements was introduced in Sweden and at the same time a reporting obligation to give information about reportable arrangements to the Swedish Tax Agency (STA) was introduced. For an arrangement to be reportable it must be cross-border and include at least one hallmark. A hallmark is a characteristic in an arrangement which is

Two relatively new concepts in planetary science are planetary migration; wherein the planets migrate through the protoplanetary disk as they form, and pebble accretion; wherein the planetesimals which become terrestrial planets and giant planet cores grow through the accretion of small pebbles. Planetary migration has become a generally accepted concept but there is still much to be learned even

This thesis focuses on both street art and outdoor advertisements in Istanbul. Specifically, we chose Istiklal and Bağdat Avenues as our fieldwork areas to conduct our research. With its cosmopolitan structure Istiklal Avenue and high-standard lifestyle Bağdat Avenue together represent Istanbul to understand the multifaceted nature of social, cultural and political identities of the society. In re

Runt om i den Europeiska unionen (EU) utnyttjas den fria rörligheten i större utsträckning än tidigare. Företag flyttar över nationsgränserna och med företagen kommer arbetstagarna och deras familjer. Idag sträcker sig allt fler familjeband över nationsgränserna och i och med det har också familjerätten tagit steget från att ha varit nationell till att bli allt mer internationell. Inom EU finns Within the European Union (EU), the freedom of movement guaranteed in the Treaties has increased significantly the last decade. Companies may move their establishment from one Member State to another and with the companies, the employees and their families follow. An effect of the integration within the European Union is a high level of cross-border family relationships. As a result, family law ha

Lagstiftaren har gjort bedömningen att barn i åldrarna 15-17 år bör skyddas från vissa sexuella handlingar och därför har man kriminaliserat köp av sexuell handling av barn. För att ansvar ska kunna utkrävas måste gärningspersonen ha uppsåt ifråga om alla omständigheter utom barnets ålder, där måste denne endast agerat oaktsamt. Enligt 6:13 BrB kan en person dömas för köp av sexuell handling av ba

Since the mid 90s, globalisation has been an unstoppable trend in the world. To cope with the fast-changing international operations, virtual teams (VT) have been widely used. This study takes place in the context of IKEA in Sweden and is built on semi-constructed interviews and on- site observations. We have adopted the qualitative and abductive approach to interpret the underlying dynamics of VT

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 50,000 SNP-trait associations. Most of these SNPs or genetic variants map to noncoding regions, known as or gene desserts. This makes it challenging to describe the mechanism by which the variant confers susceptibility to the trait. Increasingly, there is an interest in characterization and interpretation of the effect of non-coding

Boendet har en stark koppling till äldres livskvalitet. Utformningen av äldres boendemiljö är viktig då de spenderar mycket tid i och i nära anslutning till boendet. Boendemiljön påverkar hur trygg den boende känner sig där exempelvis hala golv eller dålig belysning kan skapa en känsla av otrygghet. Sveriges befolkning ökar och antalet invånare över 65 väntas öka från 1,9 miljoner 2014 till 3 milThe living environment has a strong connection with elderly's quality of life. The design of the elderly housing environment is important as they spend a lot of time in and near their home. The housing environment affects how safe the residents feel, for example slippery floors or poor lighting can create an insecurity. Sweden's population is increasing and the population of those over 65

I takt med att världen blir allt mer globaliserad ökar möjligheterna för människor att förflytta sig över gränserna. Emellertid ökar även riskerna för att människor far illa och blir utnyttjade för till exempel människohandel. Människohandel är ett globalt och komplext problem och trots att människohandel kan syfta till att utnyttja människor på olika sätt och för olika ändamål har insatserna hittSweden faces a problem that no one could have predicted a few years ago, which is that people are exploited for forced labour in the West. The purpose of this essay is to make reference to both criminal and labour law in order to describe the regulations, the current practice, and to observe the difficulties in implementation that exist when introducing legislation in the campaign against forced l

Focal adhesions are force sensitive structures that dynamically alter their composition, protein-protein interactions, and signaling in response to external mechanical stimuli. These dynamic changes are critical for focal adhesion function and are required for cellular mechanosensing. Here, we describe a simple protocol that allows for isolation of the focal adhesion complex from adherent cells in

Aim: To identify responders to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in relation to reductions in HbA1c and percentage of time spent in hypoglycaemia after initiation of CGM for individuals with type 1 diabetes treated with multiple daily insulin injections. Materials and Methods: We analysed data from 142 participants in the GOLD randomized clinical trial. We evaluated how many lowered their HbA1c

Atomic diusion and mixing processes in stellar interiors influence the structure and the surface composition of stars. Some of these processes cannot yet be modelled from the first principles, and they require calibrations. This limits their applicability in stellar models used for studies of stellar populations and Galactic evolution. Aims. Our main goal is to put constraints on the stellar struc

Individual monitoring of radiation workers is essential to ensure compliance with legal dose limits and to ensure that doses are As Low As Reasonably Achievable. However, large uncertainties still exist in personal dosimetry and there are issues with compliance and incorrect wearing of dosimeters. The objective of the PODIUM (Personal Online Dosimetry Using Computational Methods) project was to im

Background: Commuting, transportation from the home to the work place has been claimed to increase the material wealth. Although economy and flexibility to choose where to live and work will improve for the individual, several studies have shown that health become aggravated with increased commuting. One plausible explanation to the negative health is reduced social capital. Aim: Our primary hypot

Purpose: To study the impact of pregnancy on the serum concentration/dose ratio (C/D-ratio) of topiramate (TPM). Methods: Twelve women with epilepsy using TPM during pregnancy, and 15 pregnancies were studied. The main target variable was the C/D-ratio at baseline and during pregnancy. Additional variables were changes in TPM dose, concomitant use of other antiepileptic drugs, seizure frequency, a

BACKGROUND: To compare the intrinsic virulence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) omicron variant with the delta variant in hospitalized adults with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).METHODS: All adults hospitalized in the Capital Region of Copenhagen with a positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction test for SARS-CoV-2 and an available variant dete

BACKGROUND: Current follow-up strategies for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after curative surgery rely mainly on risk models and the treatment delivered, regardless of the histological subtype. OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of RCC histological subtype on recurrence and to examine the incidence, pattern, and timing of recurrences to improve follow-up recommendations. DESIGN, SETTING
