Values, worldviews, and self-construal are strong correlates of pro-environmental behavior. In this brief empirical note, we argue that these constructs overlap conceptually and share underlying dimensions. Using an international sample of 11,964 individuals, we demonstrate that values, worldviews, and self-construal can be reduced to two dimensions, self-focus and other-focus, capturing 67 % of v

While foreign direct investments (FDI) are promoted as a vehicle for economic development their environmental consequences are less established. This study tests the hypotheses that 1) FDI led to environmental degradation in form of increased greenhouse gas emissions during Sub-Saharan Africa´s recent growth spurt but that 2) this impact was felt to a lesser extent in countries with a higher quali

Factor H is an inhibitor of the complement system, essential for controlling the alternative pathway and also playing a crucial role in various cellular functions. In this thesis, we identified new intriguing functions of FH as a survival factor for primary human monocytes, promoting their differentiation into immunosuppressive macrophages. We showed that FH is expressed by human breast cancer cel

New Media and Modern Democracy The NEMO project has been a three-year research project, finished December 2014, which aims to develop new knowledge and explore new ways of understanding the significance of social media and online communication for individuals and organizations in a thriving democratic society. NEMO research is underpinned by four key themes that come together to inform fresh think

Educational reforms including community-based educational initiatives maintain crucial roles in the processes of democratization in the Middle East. The patterns of reform are diverse and reflect domestic factors as well as varying linkages to global forces. Among the factors driving and defining the effects of reform we find: 1. Socio-economic development;2. Growth of the civil society;3.

Postgraduate course IntroductionThe aim of the course is to introduce the PhD students to the Monte Carlo-methods for simulation of the interaction of photons and charged particles, which mainly apply to applications in image generation and dosimetry. The theory behind interactions of photon and charged particles (electrons and protons) will be examined in detail and with this, different type of m
