The “alla kan blomstra” (“everyone can flourish”) vision is a framework adopted by Åland’s government that attempts to institutionalize integrative inner-outer transformation within governmental structures, policies and operations. It aims to merge conventional external approaches (e.g., traditional ecological services and technologies) with inner-led change (e.g., addressing collective perception

This study examined how self- and teacher-rated executive functioning (EF), measured with the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function – Second Edition, differed between adolescents with and without self-reported neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs; e.g., autism), across levels of internalizing symptoms, and how EF, NDDs, and internalizing symptoms related to academic achievement. Analyses i

The 1990s were significant for several events promoting environmental protection and the sustainable use of natural resources. For instance, both the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in 1992, which stressed the need to stop the overconsumption of natural resources and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change endorsed a framework to combat climate change. Si

In this chapter, I reflect on the use of sociologist Erving Goffman’s dramaturgical metaphor to understand the victim-offender mediation process. Using metaphors can both open unexpected, valuable views, as well as be limiting. Having entered a specific metaphoric realm means that we are able to perceive particular aspects and perspectives (as crucial) but not others. One benefit of the dramaturgi

Sjunkande tittarsiffror och avtagande samtidsrelevans har fått många att undra om inte dagarna är räknade för tv:s late-night talkshows. Men nu verkar den förmodade nådastöten – motståndet från Trump och Maga-rörelsen – i stället gjuta nytt liv i det amerikanska 50-talsformatet.

The growing vulnerability of cities to extreme heat underscores the urgency of effective urban adaptation policies. Despite the progress in developing urban climate policies and strategies, there remains a significant disparity between intended goals and actual outcomes. This could entrench social and climate vulnerabilities that are costly and challenging to address, potentially resulting in rein

The first results of K*(892) ± production at midrapidity (| y | ' 0.5) in pp collisions at s=13 TeV as a function of the event multiplicity are presented. The K*(892) ± has been reconstructed via its hadronic decay channel K*(892)±→π±+KS0 using the ALICE detector at the LHC. For each multiplicity class, the differential transverse momentum (p T) spectrum, the mean transverse momentum ⟨ p T⟩, the p

The transverse momentum spectra and integrated yields of anti-Σ hyperons (Σ¯±) have been measured in pp and p-Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV with the ALICE experiment. Measurements are performed via the newly accessed decay channel Σ¯±→n¯π±. A new method of antineutron reconstruction with the PHOS electromagnetic spectrometer is developed and applied to this analysis. The pT spectra of Σ¯± are meas

Background: – Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is rare in children, and results in kidney failure in up to one third of cases. There is very limited knowledge on kidney transplantation in childhood-onset AAV. We assessed kidney transplantation outcomes and prognostic factors in a multicentre cohort of patients with childhood-onset AAV.Methods: – Patients diag

Background:Utilization of the maternal continuum of care (CoC)—comprising adequate antenatal care (ANC), skilled birth attendance, and postnatal care (PNC)—is critical for improving maternal and child health outcomes. However, dropout from the CoC remains substantial in Bangladesh, with women discontinuing services at different stages of pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum care.Objective:This stud

The circular economy is a concept which has received increased interest from built environment research and industry in recent years. This study explores two circular business models of adaptive reuse and shared spaces through employing a single-case study of a former factory, refurbished to shared offices and workshops. As circular economy has been criticised for ignoring social sustainability, w

The training of the state-of-the-art Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) consumes massive amounts of energy, while the human brain learns new tasks with remarkable efficiency. Currently, the training of DNNs relies almost exclusively on Backpropagation (BP). However, BP faces criticism due to its biologically implausible nature, underscoring the significant disparity in performance and energy efficiency b

The Nuclear Renaissance is a term that describes today’s socio-political attitudes toward nuclear technology. The renewed optimism surrounding nuclear power frames it as a solution to climate change and environmental inequality. However, the popular visual culture that accompanies these attitudes rarely portrays nuclear power in a positive light, but rather as a form of destruction we are expected

PurposeStreptococcus pyogenes is a cause of endometritis, a severe infection in women of reproductive age. S. pyogenes is classified into emm-types based on variations of the emm-gene. We aimed to compare the distribution of emm-types in endometritis to that of controls with bacteraemia, and to assess associations between emm-types and disease severity or clustering of cases.MethodsVaginal or cerv

PURPOSE: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) frequently exhibit atypical cognitive profiles, sensory processing challenges, sleep disturbances, and co-occurring psychiatric and somatic conditions. This exploratory prospective study, with a single-arm pre-post design, investigated the effects of a 10-12 weeks structured physical activity program on psychological symptoms, cognitive functio
