Therefore we combined several factors from the organizational level with cha

Paratransit services support individuals with limited mobility by providing access to healthcare, errands, and social activities. While designed to be enabling, these services impose temporal demands that require the user’s active engagement, such as booking in time and coordinating with other support services.

This article addresses the debate on structure, agency, and process in contemporary revolution theory, drawing on social movement theory and using the Haitian Revolution as an illustrative case. The article seeks to make three main contributions.

The statistical sparse jump model, a recently developed, robust and interpretable regime-switching model, is used to analyze the factors driving the return dynamics of the largest cryptocurrencies. This method simultaneously incorporates feature selection, parameter estimation, and state classification. A wide range of candidate features is considered, including cryptocurrency, sentiment, and fina

This study investigates patterns of seasonal variation in hours worked by women employed in home-based industrial production in Sweden in the early 20th century. Previous studies often describe workers in this type of production as the most flexible segment of industrial workers, and highly dependent on seasonal fluctuations in supply and demand. However, few have studied this empirically. This stThis study investigates patterns of seasonal variation in hours worked by women employed in home-based industrial production in Sweden in the early 20th century.

Frontal cortex activity in the left hemisphere during depression is reduced. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique that can increase frontal cortex activity. Therapy based on tDCS and positive psychology (PP) therapy was applied improving patients’ quality of life. The present study compared three conditions participants with clinical depression

The present meta-analysis investigated the relations between creative self-efficacy (CSE) and creativity measures and hypothesized that self-assessed questionnaires would have a different relation to self-efficacy beliefs compared to other creativity tests. The meta-analysis synthesized 60 effect sizes from 41 papers (overall N = 17226). Taken as a whole, the relation between CSE and creativity meThis meta-analysis investigated the relations between creative self-efficacy (CSE) and creativity measures and hypothesized that self-assessed questionnaires would have a different relation to self-efficacy beliefs compared to other creativity tests.

BACKGROUND: Altered microbial composition of the intestine, commonly referred to as dysbiosis, has been associated with several autoimmune diseases including primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). The aims of the current study were to study the intestinal microbial balance in pSS and to identify clinical features associated with dysbiosis.METHODS: Forty-two consecutive pSS patients and 35 age-matched aAltered microbial composition of the intestine, commonly referred to as dysbiosis, has been associated with several autoimmune diseases including primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS).

Quantitative analysis of large-scale political text data in the form of word embeddings has great potential for systematising differences between political parties. We examine the differences between embeddings obtained from speakers from the two competitors for the PM position in Sweden (Social Democrats and Moderates) over a 30-year period. The goal is to compare how off-the-shelf general pre-tr

The aim of the paper is to (re-)evaluate the treatment of reduplicative expressions as compound words in nearly all previous work on English. Examples of reduplicative expressions are listed, out of context, and they are labelled as compound words, without providing proper motivations as to why it makes sense to treat them as compounds, in the sense of lexical items that are formed of other lexica

English is spoken in a multitude of accents all over the world. But these accents are not neutral. They are a source of stereotypes. For example, people who speak with a Birmingham accent are considered less intelligent and less suitable as a university lecturer than people speaking with a standard British accent. This thesis investigates the factors that influence how English children develop the
