  2. 12. Immersion and recreational boating-related injuries in Alaska

    Författare :Diana Stark Hudson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Alaska; injuries; drowning; cold water; immersion; submersion; hypothermia; survival;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cold water is an ever-present hazard in Alaska, and when water-related injuries occur, they often take place in remote environments, where the nearest trained emergency response teams are several hours away. Alaska’s crude drowning death rate in 2002 was 4. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Les fonctions de l'alternance codique dans les salles d'immersion française au Québec

    Författare :Lena Molander; Georges Lüdi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; French language; Franska; French language; Franska språket; romanska språk; Romance Languages;

    Sammanfattning : The present study focusses on the code-switching by teachers and students to English - the L1 of the majority of the students - in six French immersion (L2) classrooms in Quebec, Canada. It is argued that code-switching is a dynamic notion which is given its status as such in interaction: different teachers have different ideas about what constitutes an L1 element in L2 interaction.

  4. 14. The importance of long axis function -an echocardiographic study with respect to ageing, response to treatment, prediction of survival and effect of warm water immersion

    Författare :Bente Grüner Sveälv; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Echocardiography; Long axis function; Heart failure; Age; Dobutamine stress; Recover; Prognosis; Warm water immersion;

    Sammanfattning : Echocardiographic M-mode measurement of atrioventricular plane displacement (AVPD) and determination of annular velocity with Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is a reliable method to gauge ventricular long axis function for quantification of myocardial contractility and relaxation. The aim of this thesis was to increase the understanding of the importance of long axis function with respect to ageing, response to pharmacological treatment, prediction of survival, and enhanced load condition caused by warm water immersion.

  5. 15. Bilingual lexical processing in single word production : Swedish learners of Spanish and the effects of L2 immersion

    Författare :Ulrika Serrander; Åke Viberg; Marianne Gullberg; Leah Roberts; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; The bilingual lexicon; Bilingualism; Tvåspråkighet; Linguistics; Lingvistik;

    Sammanfattning : Bilingual speakers cannot suppress activation from their dominant language while naming pictures in a foreign and less dominant language. Previous research has revealed that this cross-langauge activation is manifested through phonological facilitation, semantic interference and between language competition. LÄS MER
