Using judges and stage actors as instructive polar types this article elucidates factors that influence the inclination to empathise. Both come in close contact with dramatic life stories on an everyday basis but approach empathy from contrasting vantage points: emotional distance versus emotional engagement. Similarities between these polar types can thus disentangle some of the factors that inflUsing judges and stage actors as instructive polar types this article elucidates factors that influence the inclination to empathise.

This study investigates understandings of the concept of ‘participation’ within the context of a Swedish school, focusing on the differing perspectives of teachers, students, and school leaders.

The production, reading and correcting of article proofs is a highly important part of scholarly publishing, and the proof of an article is the only place where researcher, journal production team and publisher come together, directly or indirectly. Yet, the proof process is rarely examined or discussed, and scholars seem to regard it as something separated from the research process.

There is limited understanding of how education initiatives geared toward faculty and support staff can foster a capacity for long-term and integrated societal engagement and collaboration within higher education institutions. Using the experiences from a cross-disciplinary pilot course in Sweden, the current study aims to identify features that explicate how skills and academic rigor for engaging

SWEAH-doktorander på IAGG-konferens i San Francisco 23-27 juli Under några dagar i juli samlades 6000 forskare i San Francisco från mer än 75 länder vid en tvärprofessionell konferens om gerontologi och geriatrik. Konferensen anordnas vart fjärde år av International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (IAGG). Årets konferenstema var - Global Aging and Health: Bridging Science, Policy, and Pr

Gender-based violence (GBV) be it in peace or conflict settings is a persistent problem that has gained grounds and concerns for activists, women’s organisations, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) in general and international bodies like the United Nations. Social inequalities and cultural ideologies inform GBV and other forms of violence that are amplified in war times. Women in war play differe

Migrants do not only affect the societies in which they arrive. When people leave in large numbers, their absence will also have indirect consequences for the societies from which they left. Between 1860 and 1930, 1.4 million Swedes emigrated abroad, most of them settling in the United States. In this essay I look at how this historic migration episode, in which a quarter of the population left th

In 2015 the Swedish government declared itself to be feminist as the first government in the world. Margot Wallström, foreign minister at the time, said: ”It’s time to become a little braver in foreign policy. I think feminism is a good term. It is about standing against the systematic and global subordination of women” (Nordberg 2015). The declaration of a feminist foreign policy is remarkable in

Prominent research of creativity and affect has historically illuminated the relationship between positive affect and creativity, whereas little is known about the effects- influence of negative affect on creativity. The present study aimed to investigate how negative affect influenced creativity by using a divergent and convergent creativity task. A sample of 54 participants was recruited and ran

Autoxidation of SO2(aq) in the presence of manganese(II) is one of the important pathways for sulfuric acid formation in atmospheric clouds and fogs. Recent experimental results indicating that the catalyzed reaction takes place via a complex free-radical mechanism are discussed. Previous literature is reviewed in the light of this mechanism.

It is well-known and experimentally conrmed that the mechanical re-sponse to loading of small enough structures diers from what applies to themacro-scale. This is valid for structures of linear measures at the nano-scale,typically below about 50nm. In addition to pure size eects also the crys-tallographic orientation becomes important at this scale. This study demon-strates the mechanical response

Public health care systems face major challenges. The burden of resource constraints and continuous demands of rationings urge decision makers in countries like Sweden, Norway and the UK to find new financial solutions. One proposal that has been put forward is co-payments. In this presentation we explore ethical problems associated with co-payments in publicly funded health care systems.

The burden of resource con-straints and continuous demands of rationings urge decision makers in countries like Sweden, Norway and the UK to find new financial solutions.
