It is generally agreed that children are able to acquire two languages to which they are exposed from birth as two L1s. Little attention has been drawn to cases when one language develops slower and is weaker in different aspects. A question under debate is whether the weaker language develops as an L2 rather than as an L1. The goal of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the weaker

Denna studie behandlar Frankrikes utvisningar av romer under augusti 2010 och hur de förhåller sig till den Europeiska konventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och de grundläggande friheterna (Europakonventionen). Fokus läggs framförallt på Europakonventionens skydd mot utvisningar, rätten till rörelsefrihet, rätten till respekt för hem och förbudet mot diskriminering. Studien har ävenThis study deals with France's expulsion of Romanies during August 2010 and how they relate to the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The focus is primarily on the European Convention’s protection against expulsion, the freedom of movement, the right to respect for home and the freedom from discrimination. The study has also resulted in a deeper ex

Background: In a workshop about working with the Canvas learning platform, three librarians at Lund University started a project to create a resource for the reference management program EndNote. We started in January 2020 and launched our Canvas course with EndNote X9 in August 2020. In 2021, the entire course was updated to adapt to EndNote 20 and we also added an English version due to request.

It was long held as an axiom that new neurons are not produced in the adult human brain. More recent studies have identified multipotent cells whose progeny express glial or neuronal markers. This discovery may lead to new therapeutic strategies for CNS disorders, either by stimulating neurogenesis in vivo or by transplanting multipotent progenitor cells (MPCs) that have been propagated and differ

Popular Abstract in Swedish Författaren undersöker de djuretiska idéerna hos tre tyska tänkare: Arthur Schopenhauer, Ernst Grysanowski och Albert Schweitzer. Genom att placera in dem i deras intellektuella kontext, söker författaren undersöka de skilda dimensioner som innefattas i deras djuretik och svara på frågan hur man kan förstå deras åsikter utifrån deras specifika historiska kontext. FörfatThe study examines the character and development of the animal ethical ideas of three German thinkers: Arthur Schopenhauer, Ernst Grysanowski, and Albert Schweitzer. By situating them in their cultural and intellectual context, the study explores the differing meanings of their ethical views of animals and seeks to answer the question of how their ideas can be explained historically. It is argued

Health care currently constitute one of the largest parts of the Scandinavian welfare system, with private as well as public providers competing on a quasi-market. In order to ensure an egalitarian and safe provision of health care services this sector is governed by several policies, laws and regulations. Previous research demonstrates that these services are regulated by processes of decommodifi

Lakes are important natural resources and carbon gas emitters and are undergoing rapid changes worldwide in response to climate change and human activities. A detailed global characterization of lakes and their long-term dynamics does not exist, which is however crucial for evaluating the associated impacts on water availability and carbon emissions. Here, we map 3.4 million lakes on a global scal

This contribution analyses and discusses the use of 3D technology in education and learning. Basing the discussion on a case study performed during two seasons of a field school for 1st-year archaeology students, we explore how to expand traditional didactic programs by developing and testing a web-based system for educational purposes. We examine how these technologies can be used as educational

The goal of this master’s thesis was to investigate if the possibilities for Swedish companies to protect their innovations have decreased due to a shift towards more software and business method-based innovations. The investigation was based on interviews with respondents working as IPR consultants, with technical development or as patent attorneys at different Swedish companies together with col

Directional crack growth criteria in compressed elastic-plastic materials are considered. The conditions at the crack tip are evaluated for a straight stationary crack. Remote load is a combined hydrostatic stress and pure shear, applied via a boundary layer assuming small scale yielding. Strains and deformations are assumed to be small. Different candidates for crack path criteria are examined. MDirectional crack growth criteria in compressed elastic–plastic materials are considered.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Melamisufism (melamet) fanns i olika delar av Osmanska riket. Den sista perioden, då melamirörelsen var särskilt märkbar, tar sin början i slutet av 1800-talet, och då med en koncentration i den europeiska delen av det osmanska riket (Rumeli). Detta hänger samman med att melamiordens huvudschejk Sejjid Muhammed Nur el-Arebi, bodde och var verksam där under denna tid. MeThis dissertation focuses on Melami history in Bosnia with emphasis on the 20th century. The well-known Melami master Hajrullah Abdurahmanovic (d. 1965) in this study becomes an exponent for changes in the political and social role of religion in course of the 20th century. The purpose of this research is to describe and analyze the theology of the Melami movement in the environments created by su

A better physical understanding of mesoscale and microscale mechanisms behind deformation and failure of paperboard material is important to optimize industrial packaging converting processes and decrease waste. In this study, these mechanisms were investigated using synchrotron X-ray tomography during in situ continuous uniaxial tensile loading. High spatial and temporal data resolution enabled q

Studien syftade i första hand till att utföra en uppföljningsstudie av etableringen av lokaler i bottenvåningar i flerbostadshus på Liljeholmskajen i Stockholm. Inventeringen hade sitt ursprung i detaljplanebestämmelser och exploateringsavtal för fastigheterna och i huvudsak reglerades lokalerna i bottenvåningar i detaljplanerna med användningsbestämmelser som innehöll “Bottenvåningar ska utformasThe purpose of this study is mainly to do a follow-up investigation considering the establishment of non-housing premises on the ground floor in dwelling houses at Liljeholmskajen in Stockholm. In detailed development plans, the usage of the ground can be regulated with usage provisions and sometimes a developer must build something particular that the city’s planners decide, without other options

Syftet med denna studie är att ta reda på hur elevers pianistiska och musikaliska utveckling kan stöttas genom att spela enkelt arrangerade jazzlåtar. Bakgrunden till studien är en tanke om att kunna spela svängiga och roliga men enkla jazzlåtar med pianoelever redan från nybörjarstadiet, vilket ledde fram till att jag valde att göra egna arrangemang av ett antal jazzstandards för nybörjare i pianThe purpose of this study is to find out how students' pianistic and musical development can be supported by playing simple arranged jazz songs. The idea behind the study is the thought of being able to play rhythmic and fun but simple jazz tunes with piano students from the beginner's stage, which led to my decision of making my own arrangements of jazz standards for piano students, indiv

Background: Occupational heat exposure can provoke health problems that increase the risk of certain diseases and affect workers’ ability to maintain healthy and productive lives. This study investigates the effects of occupational heat stress on workers’ physiological strain and labor productivity, as well as examining multiple interventions to mitigate the problem. Methods: We monitored 518 full
