Occurring at rates up to 6-7 syllables per second, speech perception and understanding involves rapid identification of speech sounds and pre-activation of morphemes and words. Using event-related potentials (ERPs) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we investigated the time-course and neural sources of pre-activation of word endings as participants heard the beginning of unfolding wOccurring at rates up to 6-7 syllables per second, speech perception and understanding involves rapid identification of speech sounds and pre-activation of morphemes and words.

During the past few decades, the Swedish spatial planning system has experienced numerous problems and challenges. In particular, there have been changes in legislation and an increased neoliberalisation of planning that gives private actors a larger influence over the planning processes in Sweden. In this article, we analyse these changes through the lenses of collaborative and neoliberal planninDuring the past few decades, the Swedish spatial planning system has experienced numerous problems and challenges.

Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown its potential by combining high combustion controllability with emission characteristics that are close to those of an HCCI engine. In order to get PPC the ignition delay needs to be long enough for the fuel and air to mix prior to combustion. This can be achieved by injecting the fuel sufficiently early while running with high EGR.In order to find out

1. Studies modelling heat transfer of bird plumage design suggest that insulative properties can be attributed to the density and structure of the downy layer, whereas waterproofing is the result of the outer layer, comprised of contour feathers. In this study, we test how habitat and thermal condition affect feather mass and density of body feathers (contour, semiplume and downy feathers) measure1.Studies modelling heat transfer of bird plumage design suggest that insulative properties can be attributed to the density and structure of the downy layer, whereas waterproofing is the result of the outer layer, comprised of contour feathers.

From Treatment First to Housing First: What does it mean for the Social Worker?In Sweden social work with homeless people is dominated by “Treatment First” (or the staircase model). The Treatment First models weak results in combating homelessness has increased the interest for Housing First. In 2015 we started a participatory design-oriented research project in the City of Helsingborg in Sweden tIn Sweden social work with homeless people is dominated by “Treatment First” (or the staircase model). The Treatment First models weak results in combating homelessness has increased the interest for Housing First. In 2015 we started a participatory design-oriented research project in the City of Helsingborg in Sweden that aims to implement principles of Housing First in a social housing programme

To satisfy customers’ desires with a maintained efficiency of the production process is a challenge for many house construction companies. Houses are one-off projects with a production process characterized by variability and complexity that often lead to unpredicted costs. Prefabricated component solutions could possibly solve these issues through modularization, mass customization and delayed pr

The Transfermium Working Group (TWG) was set up in 1986 under the joint auspices of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP). Its conclusions, duly endorsed by IUPAC and IUPAP, were published in the following three reports:1. Criteria that must be satisfied for the discovery of a new chemical element to be recogni

Even though Sweden stands out in many ways, with for example a well-developed welfare system, there are some indications that Swedish egalitarianism does not include tolerance for people with low income. The present research concerns the content of the Swedish stereotype of poor people, and examines whether the poor are associated with just as negative traits as they are in other countries. Three

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to contribute to knowledge about what is regarded as an appropriate governance model in welfare markets in healthcare, from the perspective of government. The study draws on a framework about governance in healthcare systems as a continuous process of priority setting, monitoring and accountability. It relates to various dimensions of management controls; a BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to contribute to knowledge about what is regarded as an appropriate governance model in welfare markets in healthcare, from the perspective of government.

The pricing of uncertainties, when establishing the market value of financial instruments, is problematic in tax litigation since the outcome of the litigation is binary. Different values can be equally correct, depending on the choice of models, assumptions regarding model parameters and forecasting techniques. The purpose of this article is to illustrate the challenges for tax administrations an

Introduction: Evidence-based practise is an increasing demand in occupational therapy, although multiple barriers can hinder the translation of research knowledge into practice. The article illuminates the transformation of results from a randomised controlled trial into a practice development project with future practice implementation in mind.

Augustenborg is suburb city in Malmö south of Sweden. The climate is temperate with occasional snow during the winter. Open storm water is applied in Augustenborg since late 1990s and the storm water is disconnected from the combined sewer system in order to give the area a lift up value and to solve the flooding problems in basements after heavy rainfall events. The new open system consists of po

This fouth semester thesis examines the films and film activities of Civilförsvarsstyrelsen, a Swedish state-controlled Civil Defense authority under the Ministry of Interior. Studies concerning film activities of the Swedish state are highly rare about the years following 1945 until the television breakthrough in 1956. This study concerns 1949-1952, a period characterized by an increase in welfar

This thesis has as a purpose the investigation of sustainable requirements compliance with regards to competition in public procurement contracts. This paper looks into Directive 2014/24 and notably its primary law influence in order to understand the legal foundations underlying sustainability and competition. It showcases, firstly, that Article 18(1) wording and legal interpretation provides a l
