Researchers have emphasized the child’s perspective within social science since the 1990’s which has resulted in a shift in the view of children within research towards the recognition that children are active, creative social agents in their own right. The main aim of this paper was to present methodological and ethical aspects regarding research with children on the basis of two propositions, thResearchers have emphasized the child’s perspective within social science since the 1990’s which has resulted in a shift in the view of children within research towards the recognition that children are active, creative social agents in their own right.

Bipolaris sorokiniana is the causal agent of multiple diseases on wheat and barley and is the primary constraint to cereal production throughout South Asia. Despite its significance, the molecular basis of disease is poorly understood. To address this, the genomes of three Australian isolates of B. sorokiniana were sequenced and screened for known pathogenicity genes. Sequence analysis revealed th

Welding robots that use sensors to compensate for variations in their environment pose new requirements for programming systems and for controller architectures. Tracking sensors must be programmed with the geometry of the welds and the motions of the robot. The process monitoring system must be programmed with the required process tolerances and the type of weld. Finally, the controller must be pWelding robots that use sensors to compensate for variations in their environment pose new requirements for programming systems and for controller architectures.

There is a lack of objective evaluative standards for academic work. While this has been recognized in studies of how gatekeepers pass judgment on the works of others, little is known about how scholars deal with the uncertainty about how their work will be evaluated by gatekeepers. Building upon 35 interviews with early career academics in political science and history, this paper explores how ju

The COVID-19 pandemic is classified as an infodemic with the circulation of vast amounts of true and untrue information, especially through social media. The study’s aim was to explore different articulations of people’s understanding, handling and evaluation of (true) information, misinformation and disinformation in general and specifically linked to social media related to the COVID-19 pandemicThe COVID-19 pandemic is classified as an infodemic with the circulation of vast amounts of true and untrue information, especially through social media.

Background: Older adults with pain have an increased risk of falling (odds ratio (OR) 1,7). Pain in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is more common than in older adults. The association between pain and falling in people with PD is poorly explored.Objective: To investigate the occurrence of pain in mild PD and its association with future falls/near fallsMethods. The study included 141 participants with PDBackground: Older adults with pain have an increased risk of falling (odds ratio (OR) 1,7).

In this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to- machine communication in the Internet of Things. We focus on heterogeneous networks in which multiple applications co-exist and nodes may take on different roles for different applications. Moreover, we address network reIn this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to-machine communication in the Internet of Things.

I det här kapitlet behandlas begreppet välfärd kopplat till tjänster och som det uppfattas av mottagarna av tjänsterna, ”kunderna”, men även hur välfärdens värde traditionellt aggregeras på samhällsnivå och de brister som finns i de mått som används. Syftet är att diskutera om de mått och uttryck för välfärd vi använder idag tillräckligt väl speglar det vi menar med ”välfärd”. Kan de mått som anvä

This psychometric study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Dysexecutive Questionnaire (DEX) following a cardiac event, and to examine the relationship between self- and informant-ratings. Approximately 7 months post-cardiac event, 196 participants and their informants (N = 179) completed the DEX. Reliability was assessed by confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency esThis psychometric study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Dysexecutive Questionnaire (DEX) following a cardiac event, and to examine the relationship between self- and informant-ratings.
