Classrooms are becoming increasingly digital. One novel digital technology that might enter classrooms soon is eye tracking. This is a method to estimate a person’s gaze direction and infer the point of visual attention. This technology has already provided insights into how students process computer-based instructional material. Moreover, it has been used to enhance pre-recorded video instruction
Experience tells us that results from discrete analyses in many cases may produce alternative interpretations. The choice of means of interpretation may in turn be crucial when explaining the archaeological model. Most often an adequate material for comparison is missing, which if available would have given a priority to a realistic alternative interpretation i.e. true to real life. Only through t
Segregation is a pervasive social phenomenon that separates individuals across social settings. Workplaces, as key hubs of the labor market, are not only central to economic outcomes but also potential sites for cross-cutting social ties. Yet workplace segregation can exacerbate inequality and weaken social cohesion. Existing research has largely examined highly visible categories such as rac
Do negative income shocks increase conflict risk? I study the relationship between desert locust infestations and conflict in 26 African countries. Combining geolocalized data on locust swarms and bands with information on conflict events, I construct two panel datasets at spatial resolutions 0.5◦ × 0.5◦ and 0.1◦ × 0.1◦, covering the years 1997–2017. I find a negative relationship between locust i
This article examines why some economies sustain large financial sectors without experiencing the negative effects on economic performance predicted by the finance-threshold literature. It analyzes South Korea and Taiwan during their economic transformations from the 1960s to early 2000s, combining descriptive statistics on financial depth (private credit-to-GDP) and economic shrinking (years of n
Bakgrund/Syfte*: Vilka aktiviteter som hemtjänstanvändare får hjälp med regleras viabiståndsbeslut, men det är oklart om stödet motsvarar deras önskan om vad de vill göra föraktiviteter för att få en meningsfull vardag. Syftet är att starta en diskussion kring för- och nackdelarmed att använda bedömningsinstrument som fokuserar på vad en hemtjänstanvändare vill göra.Metod/Tillvägagångssätt*: Inter
Extensive research is currently being conducted to develop anion exchange membranes (AEMs) with high hydroxide conductivity and chemical stability, aiming to increase efficiency and lifetime of alkaline membrane fuel cells, water electrolyzers, and flow batteries. In this context, poly(arylene alkylene)s have recently emerged to offer great opportunities and flexibility to molecularly design and p
BACKGROUND: Non-coding RNAs have been drawing increasing attention in recent years as functional data suggest that they play important roles in key cellular processes. N-BLR is a primate-specific long non-coding RNA that modulates the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, facilitates cell migration, and increases colorectal cancer invasion.RESULTS: We performed multivariate analyses of data from t
