Purpose: The Workplace Dialogue is a digitalized method directed at managers. The purpose of this study was to explore managers’ experiences of using the digital Workplace Dialogue in cases of employee ill-health. Design/methodology/approach: The Workplace Dialogue provides an easy and accessible method for managers, including text, short films, client examples and concrete guides that provides su
Modeling of real-world fuels and fuel mixtures in combustion engines, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), calls for the development of compact and computationally efficient chemical kinetic mechanisms. To improve the modeling capabilities of multicomponent fuels it is necessary to transition from the single-component descriptions of fuels and move toward more complex, accurate multicomponent
Indigenous archaeology and archaeology of Indigeneity are paramount in the contemporary world. We certainly need more of it across the archaeological scale and across the archaeological globe. Archaeology’s unhealthy attachment to colonialism, colonial administration and imperialism keeps on affecting our discipline on all levels. It is therefore encouraging to read Felix Acuto’s call for an engag
Aims and Objectives/Purpose/Research Questions:Our paper outlines the development of vocabulary proficiency tests for minority languages and addresses the challenges in doing so.Design/Methodology/Approach:The strategies are exemplified based on recently developed tests for Sicilian and Venetan, two large languages in Italy without official status. Users of these types of languages tend to have on
As we become increasingly conscious of the entangled nature of human existence, we need to become more attuned to the needs of other species, and things on this planet we are bound to. This presents us with an opportunity to rethink in whose interest we approach architectural design, and to bring vital voices into the process that have – until now – been unable to make themselves heard. We conduct
BACKGROUND: Limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE) clinically mimics and often co-occurs with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Expert consensus criteria have been proposed for the LATE clinical diagnosis, integrating clinical and radiological features, and AD biomarkers. Here, we applied the newly proposed criteria in a tertiary memory clinic population. METHOD: We included participa
There is little consensus on the optimal components of gambling psychological treatments. This study aimed to identify clinical consensus statements regarding the perceived effectiveness of gambling intervention content (change techniques, participant/recruitment characteristics, delivery characteristics, and evaluation characteristics) from a panel of researchers with psychological gambling treat
Decarbonising the built environment is essential to mitigating the climate crisis, as buildings significantly contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. Adaptive reuse presents a sustainable alternative to demolition and new construction. This study evaluated the Global Warming Potential (GWP) of an adapted building through renovation and operation across three scenarios, compared to a reference scen
Digital trace data can be used to capture organizational practices in granular detail and enable the automation of a wide range of managerial tasks. One example is Digital Productivity Assistants (DPA) that harness digital trace data about knowledge workers’ performance and make targeted suggestions for how to improve and optimize their work patterns. Previous research shows that despite benevolen
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), particularly Nickel-Cobalt-Aluminum (NCA) variants, are widely recognized as essential for applications such as electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and portable electronics. The superior energy density, extended lifespan, and thermal stability of NCA batteries make them a preferred choice for demanding applications, including electric marine propulsion. In th
Working with pushbroom imagery in photogrammetry and remote sensing presents a fundamental challenge in object-to-image space transformation. For this transformation, accurate estimation of Exterior Orientation Parameters (EOPs) for each scanline is required. To tackle this challenge, Best Scanline Search or Determination (BSS/BSD) methods have been developed. However, the current BSS/BSD methods
Both trio and population designs are popular study designs for identifying risk genetic variants in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). The trio design, as a family-based design, is robust to confounding due to population structure, whereas the population design is often more powerful due to larger sample sizes. Here, we propose KnockoffHybrid, a knockoff-based statistical method for hybrid a
RNA sequencing (RNAseq) methodology has experienced a burst of technological developments in the last decade, which has opened up opportunities for studying the mechanisms of adaptation to environmental factors at both the organismal and cellular level. Selecting the most suitable experimental approach for specific research questions and model systems can, however, be a challenge and researchers i
In Sweden, urban planners are legally obligated to design neighbourhoods that allow future buildings to meet daylight requirements. However, this is challenging because planners can only define the building masses, without control over future building details such as glazing ratios, room layouts, and orientation.The Vertical Sky Component (VSC) is a well-established indicator for early daylight as
The importance of reducing environmental impacts has gained speed in the contemporary global context. Stabilization/Solidification (S/S) has become a practical method for handling polluted dredged sediments to make them usable as a construction material. This study aims to evaluate the environmental and economic impacts of a 48,586 m2 port, with stabilized dredged sediment, by focusing on the prod
Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) with a plasmid vector pET-22b (+) carrying xylanase coding gene isolated from an extremely thermophilic bacterium, Thermotoga sp. was used in this work for enhanced production of recombinant xylanase. The study was focused on optimization of lactose based induction for enhanced production of xylanase. Data collected from OFAT and DoE based trails indicated that initiati
Background: Evidence was found for the effectiveness of virtual reality-based cognitive behavioral therapy (VR-CBT) for treating paranoia in psychosis, but health-economic evaluations are lacking. Objective: This study aimed to determine the short-term cost-effectiveness of VR-CBT. Methods: The health-economic evaluation was embedded in a randomized controlled trial evaluating VR-CBT in 116 patien
