With the emergence of the digital surveillance society, and especially since the turn of the 21st century, artistic explorations of key questions of visibility, observation, and surveillance have multiplied into what can be identified as a genre of its own, “surveillance art.” As surveillance has become increasingly central to societal developments and crept into everyday life, it has been the sub
This paper presents a joint model of multivariate longitudinal data and multistate data with application to modeling and predicting autoantibody development in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study. The model quantifies the risks of state transitions based on observed time-varying and non-time-varying risk factors. Based on the estimated model, a dynamic prediction
Early Ordovician (Late Arenig) limestones from the SW margin of Baltica (Scania-Bomholm) have multicomponent magnetic signatures, but high unblocking components predating folding, and the corresponding palaeomagnetic pole (latitude = 19degreesN, longitude = 051degreesE) compares well with Arenig reference poles from Baltica. Collectively, the Arenig poles demonstrate a midsoutherly latitudinal pos
The difference between the Western and the “Indian” view of nature has sometimes in the literature on environmental ethics been expressed as the difference between an anthropocentric and biocentric worldview. This argument often juxtaposes two models, without consideration of context. My aim in this article is to investigate those aspects of Amerindian cosmologies that have led Western scholars to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling presenterar en bred och kritisk översikt av litteraturen och forskningen angående inlärning av uttal och språkljud. De problem som framför allt vuxna har med att lära sig uttalet i ett främmande språk diskuteras och de olika hypotesen granskas. Jag argumenterar att inlärning är i stort sett en härmningsprocess. Två modeller av inlärning presenteras. DThis work is concerned with the acquisition of the phonetic characteristics of languages and dialects, and with the issue of learner talent or individual achievement in learning second languages. Following a survey of the literature on language learning limits, it is argued that the concentration on group trends in most of the existing literature, whilst convenient, serves more to obscure the reas
In this note we discuss some aspects of the peakon-antipeakon interaction for the Camassa-Holm equation.
Browning offers rich information on theories in current moral psychology. He criticizes these theories and states the superiority of the Christian narrative for the understanding and grounding of morality. This short text is a critical comment to his standpoint.
BACKGROUND: The 30-item disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) questionnaire is increasingly used in clinical research involving upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders. From the original DASH a shorter version, the 11-item QuickDASH, has been developed. Little is known about the discriminant ability of score changes for the QuickDASH compared to the DASH. The aim of this study was to
