The current entry summarizes research bringing together the linguistic relativity hypothesis (the idea that language affects thought, in predictable ways) and the field of bi/multilingualism, broadly conceived to include learning, knowledge, and use of more than one language. After a brief historical introduction, the entry covers empirical research conducted in five main domains of enquiry, namel
This article investigates social media users’ attitudes towards Swedish dialects. It presents an analysis of 778 comments from Facebook and TikTok reacting to five short videos featuring a girl speaking a dialect typical of Värmland on Swedish national television. The analysis reveals that most comments express positive evaluations, describing the dialect as underbar ‘wonderful’, härlig ‘lovely’ a
BackgroundLongitudinal data on weight change, its timing, and the age of obesity onset in relation to cause-specific mortality are limited.MethodsFrom ODDS, a nationwide pooled cohort study in Sweden, we included 258,269 men and 361,784 women with at least three weight assessments between ages 17 and 60, collected in 1963–2015. We applied linear mixed-effects models to estimate weight trajectories
Nucleotides and coenzymes play critical roles in energy metabolism and cellular signaling and as building blocks of nucleic acids. This work addresses the challenges in the measurement of the phosphorylated metabolites using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, which facilitates the separation and detection of polar metabolites. Here, we present optimized H
Paper on the Hungarian-Jewsih doctor Miklós Nyiszli who was forced to assist Joseph Mengele in medical experiments in Auschwitz-Birkenau.
Recent decades have seen rapid development of energy-efficient technologies and designs.However, despite significant effort to ensure that new technologies meet energy-efficiency criteria, thereare discrepancies between predicted and actual energy use. To bridge this gap, it is important that suchtechnologies and designs align with users’ experiences and behaviours. This Ph.D. thesis aims to castl
For decades, scholars have debated the decline in political trust as both an indicator and a driver of democratic crisis and civic disengagement. The focus of this previous research has been primarily on how political trust can be bolstered or maintained. Drawing on research from interpersonal and organizational mutual trust, we argue, however, that political trust is not only influenced by govern
Industrial and urban symbiosis (IUS) is increasingly promoted as a means to reduce resource use, lowerenvironmental impacts, and support local sustainability transitions. Municipalities are often assigned akey role in facilitating such arrangements, yet research has primarily focused on inter-firm collaborationand external coordination, paying limited attention to how municipal organizations thems
Internal branding processes have become unavoidable features of organisational life, relating to the practices, efforts, and labour surrounding cultural production through which organisational actors seek to circulate understandings of what an organisation is and stands for. This thesis explores internal branding processes in the professions, using the example of the academic context, and how prof
Classroom-based language learning has typically taken place in relatively static body positions, but research suggests that embodied learning through sensorimotor engagement and technical immersion, using virtual realities, can significantly enhance learning outcomes. Recent research has linked differences in the learning context to different cortical structures within the language learning networ
Den senaste tidens utveckling av artificiell intelligens har möjliggjort framställning av AI-genererad media som bilder och videor. Med tiden har de blivit kallade deepfakes som på ett mycket trovärdigt sätt kan föreställa verkliga personer. Till följd av detta uppkommer frågor om hur gällande svensk rätt förmår skydda individens personliga integritet mot nya tekniska utvecklingar. Syftet med uppsRecent developments in artificial intelligence have enabled the creation of AI-generated media, such as images and videos. Over time these have been known as deepfakes, which can convincingly depict real individuals in multiple different scenarios. This technological development raises questions regarding how well-equipped Swedish law is to protect individuals personal integrity against this new f
Uppsatsen analyserar rättstillämpningen av 33 § avtalslagen (lagen [1915:218] om avtal och andra rättshandlingar på förmögenhetsrättens område) med fo-kus på Högsta domstolens (HD) avgörande i målet ”Nätkasinot” (T 607-24, den 1 juli 2025). 33 § avtalslagen, som behandlar tro och heder, har sällan tillämpats i domstol men har nyligen aktualiserats genom ”Nätkasinot”. Syftet är att analysera hur räThe essay examines the application of Section 33 of the Contracts Act (SFS 1915:218), with particular focus on the Supreme Court’s (HD) ruling in the case ‘Nätkasinot’ (T 607-24, 1 July 2025). Section 33, which addresses good faith and honour, has rarely been applied by the courts but has recently gained renewed relevance through the ‘Nätkasinot’ judgment. The purpose of the essay is to analyse th
EU:s direktiv om tillbörlig aktsamhet för företag i fråga om hållbarhet (Corpo-rate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive, CSDDD) innebär att större före-tag åläggs att identifiera, förebygga och hantera negativa effekter på mänskliga rättigheter och miljö i den egna verksamheten, dotterföretags verksamhet och i verksamhetskedjan. Direktivet aktualiserar frågor om hur företags hållbarhets-ansvar The EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) requires large companies to identify, prevent and address adverse impacts on human rights and the environment in their own operations, in subsidiaries and across the value chain. The Directive raises questions regarding as to how corporate sustainability responsibilities relate to the role of the board under Swedish company law. The p
Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda hur en förvaltningsdomstol ska hantera utredningsbrister i förvaltningsmål när en förvaltningsmyndighet har brustit i sitt utredningsansvar. Mot denna bakgrund undersöks vilka handlingsalternativ som står till domstolens förfogande och hur dessa förhåller sig till förvaltningsprocessens funktion och ändamål. Förvaltningsprocessen syftar till att kontrollera förvaltnThe purpose of this thesis is to examine how an administrative court should address deficiencies in the investigation of administrative cases when an administrative authority has failed to fulfil its duty to investigate. Against this background, the study explores the courses of action available to the court and how these relate to the function and purpose of administrative procedure. Administrat
Barnets bästa är en grundläggande princip i svensk familjerätt. Enligt 6 kap. 2 a § föräldrabalken (FB) ska barnets bästa vara avgörande i alla frågor om vårdnad, boende och umgänge. Den 1 januari 2025 trädde en lagändring i kraft, vilket innebar en omformulering av bestämmelsen. Lagändringen medförde att risken för att barnet far illa ges en mer framträdande plats i bedömningen av barnets bästa. The best interest of the child constitutes a fundamental principle in Swedish family law. Pursuant to Chapter 6, Section 2 a of the Swedish Children and Parental Code (FB), the best interests of the child shall be decisive in all matters concerning custody, residence, and visitation. On 1 January 2025, an amendment to the law entered into, force entailing a reformulation of the provision. The amen

Species of the ascomycetous genus Cladobotryum (Hypocreales, Hypocreaceae) are ecologically and economically important mycoparasites that cause cobweb disease in cultivated and wild mushrooms. Despite their significance as fungal pathogens and producers of bioactive metabolites, the taxonomy of Cladobotryum remains unresolved due to extensive morphological plasticity, complex teleomorph–anamorph c
Children with disabilities and medical conditions are at an increased risk of injury or death during road vehicle transportation. In 2020, a national Australian survey of health professionals and organisations involved in the safe transport of children with disabilities and medical conditions identified a critical need for improved access to training, education, and resources. In response, Mobilit
