  3. 3. Dangerous Liaisons : Why Ex-Combatants Return to Violence. Cases from the Republic of Congo and Sierra Leone

    Author : R. Anders Nilsson; Thomas Ohlson; Kristine Höglund; Mats Hammarström; Joanna Spear; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ex-combatants; reintegration; demobilization; DDR; conflict resolution; peacebuilding; civil wars; Republic of Congo; Sierra Leone; Peace and conflict research; Freds- och konfliktforskning;

    Abstract : After disarming and demobilizing, why do some ex-combatants re-engage in organized vio-lence, while others do not? Even though former fighters have been identified as a major source of insecurity in post-civil war societies due to their military know-how, there have been few efforts to systematically examine this puzzle. This study fills this research gap by comparing the presence or absence of organized violence in different ex-combatant communi-ties – all the former fighters that used to belong to the same armed faction and who share a common, horizontal identity based on shared war-and peacetime experiences.

  4. 4. Learning Chemistry at the University level : Student attitudes, motivation, and design of the learning environment

    Author : C. Anders R. Berg; Johan Lithner; Lisbeth Lundahl; Helge Strömdahl; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : laboratory work; open experiments; attitude; university level; motivation; cognitive load; laboratory instruction styles; attitude change; design of learning situation; student questions.;

    Abstract : The main purpose of the research this thesis is based upon was to study students’ attitudes towards learning chemistry at university level and their motivation from three perspectives. How can students’ attitudes towards learning chemistry be assessed? How can these attitudes be changed? How are learning situations experienced by students with different attitude positions? An attitude questionnaire, assessing views of knowledge, learning assessments, laboratory activities, and perceived roles of instructors and student, was used to estimate students’ attitude positions.

  5. 5. A component framework for autonomous mobile robots

    Author : Anders Orebäck; Henrik I. Christiensen; Iiiah R. Nourbakhsh; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Datorteknik; robotics; mobile robots; autonomour robots; component-based software engineering; software architectures; Datorteknik; Computer engineering; Datorteknik;

    Abstract : The major problem of robotics research today is that there is a barrier to entry into robotics research. Robot system software is complex and a researcher that wishes to concentrate on one particular problem often needs to learn about details, dependencies and intricacies of the complete system.
