Partnerships for Inclusive Practices in Data-Use Teacher Communities

This article examines inclusive practices through the implementation of a data-use model in a partnership between a university and schools in a Norwegian region. Although inclusion is a key educational policy goal, research shows that its realisation in practice remains uneven. N...

Hurried science and the tracking problem

In times of crisis, science tends to move fast. However, speeding up science often involves deliberate compromises to the scientific norms that are meant to guarantee the reliability of scientific results in normal circumstances. Call this hurried science. Some of the compromises...

The emotion regulation and recognition account of empathy‐related processes in autism: a multimodal, multilevel case–control study

BACKGROUND: Recent evidence suggests that many autistic individuals exhibit heightened emotional responsiveness to others' affect despite greater difficulty recognizing others' emotions and accurately inferring their perspectives. This study introduces and preliminarily evaluates...

Comparing innovation capabilities in mountain destinations: An analysis of management systems' properties

Debate continues over which destination management systems - community, corporate, or otherwise - best foster innovation and development. Yet, recent research shows that system type alone may not fully explain outcomes. This study examines properties within these systems to clari...

Mental health and substance use in Europe: initial steps towards a common European approach

Sodium Bicarbonate Supplementation Enhances Repeated High‐Intensity Interval Training Performance and Time Above 90% of V˙O2max in Well‐Trained Cyclists

ABSTRACT This study investigated the effects of sodium bicarbonate (SB) supplementation on physiological responses and performance during submaximal exercise, high‐intensity interval training (HIT) and repeated Wingate sprints in well‐trained cyclists. Twenty‐four participants (♂...

Blueberry Workers, Legal Change, Resistance, and Accommodation in the Coastal North of Peru

Abstract This article examines the protests of blueberry workers in Peru in 2020 against an agrarian labour regime that legalizes precarious labour conditions, as well as the aftermath of that mobilization. It investigates whether the legal change demanded and achieved can be cat...

Why wolves walk – drivers of daily movement in a social large carnivore

Animal movement patterns are influenced by a range of extrinsic and intrinsic factors, including the distribution of resources, human disturbance, landscape connectivity, species interactions, and individual traits. We examined factors associated with daily movement distance (DMD...

Pica, avoidant restrictive food intake disorder and rumination disorder in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review

Abstract Background Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have an increased risk of co-occurring eating disorders such as pica, avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) and rumination disorder (RD). The aim of the current systematic review was to synthesize and ap...

K-MARVEL: K-Mer-based antimicrobial resistance virtual exploration lab

Abstract The rapid global spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) necessitates a new generation of computational tools for its surveillance. While next-generation sequencing offers unprecedented insight into the resistome, current methods face a trade-off: assembly-based approac...

Evaluating threshold management for willow grouse harvest: tracking open and closed areas during 12 years.

Managers must make decisions in the face of uncertainty, especially when available resources are limiting. Identifying thresholds when certain conditions are met or exceeded enable the potential to mitigate risks. In 2005, sustainable harvest levels of willow ptarmigan were ident...
