In this article the initiation, development and nature of the indigenous psychologies are characterized. The psychologies in question are those versions of psychology that are, mostly non-western, critical reactions to mainstream psychological research. The heterogeneous and complex nature of the indigeneous psychologies are high-lighted. The enterprise of building a (psychological) science on the

At present, the conversion of oils to biodiesel is predominantly carried out using chemical catalysts. However, the corresponding lipase-catalysed process has important advantages, which include mild reaction conditions and the possibility of using cheap, low quality feedstocks with a high free fatty acid content. Further increases in the efficiency of the enzymatic process are desired to make it

Glacier retreat caused by global warming alters the hydrological regime and poses far-reaching challenges to water resources and nature conservation of the headwater of Yangtze River, and its vast downstream regions with dense population. However, there is still lack of a robust modeling framework of the “climate-glacier-streamflow” in this water tower region, to project the future changes of glac

Background and aims: Ethnicity influences the prevalence of gestational diabetes (GDM) and its progression to manifest diabetes postpartum, being higher in non-European populations. This may partly be explained by differences in insulin secretion and action. Aims of the present study were to evaluate glucose homeostasis after GDM, the impact of ethnicity and other determinants of glucose toleranceBackground and aims: Ethnicity influences the prevalence of gestationaldiabetes (GDM) and its progression to manifest diabetes postpartum, beinghigher in non-European populations.

T. Larspers har presenterat en väl genomarbetad presentation utifrån flera aspekter av det kristna livet kring Siljansbygden vid sekelskiftet 1800-1900. Han har visat att lokalhistoria inte bara handlar om beskrivningar av det lokala utan är både informationsberikande och har en förklaringspotential som förutsätter både resultat från kvalificerad forskning och fördjupande reflektion.
