Case Study Sweden
- 2016
-
Ingår i: From refugees to workers. - : Migration Policy Centre. ; , s. 123-134
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The study sets out to provide a better understanding of the emerging challenges in policy targeting the labour-market integration of refugees. What are the strategies and practices implemented in different EU Member States to facilitate access into employment? What do we know about their effectiveness? What are good practices and lessons learned in different countries? The study is based on nine detailed country case studies of the following EU Member States: Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

One size fits all? : Integration approaches for beneficiaries of international protection
- 2021
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thematic paper deals with integration policies concerning persons who aregranted international protection in EU Member States. It acknowledges that there are two general trends in integration policies - a civic turn and a local turn. The civic turn implies more integration requirements for migrants, decided upon by the state, that have an impact on the legal status of migrant newcomers. On the other hand, the local turn implies less national involvement with cities instead handling more of the integration policies, including funding and policy measures.The paper then describes four different models for the integration of beneficiaries of international protection: a national government-led model, a project based/multilevel governance model, a laissez-faire model, and a NGO-led model.

Experimental and numerical investigation on the shear strength of glulam

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- According to EC5, the shear resistance of a structural timber element should be determined on the basis of the characteristic shear strength of the material, along with classical beam theory. For glulam, the characteristic strength values are given by the European standard EN 1194 [3], which assumes a direct relationship between tensile strength and shear strength of the lamination. As an example, the characteristic shear strength of glulam class GL28c, consisting of inner laminations with characteristic tensile strength ft,0,k = 14.5 MPa, would be fv,k = 0.32·(14.5)^0.8 = 2.9 MPa. However, recent investigations both on glulam members [4] and on timber members [5] have shown that the shear strength of spruce is higher than the shear strength obtained by means of the model proposed by EN1194. Moreover, the studies show that the shear strength is nearly constant, regardless the strength class of the timber material.

Growing apart : Increasing labour market segmentation of EU-13 workers in Sweden
- 2023
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This article investigates labour market segmentation of EU-13 workers in Sweden. Labour market segmentation is a driver of income differences between natives, EU-15 migrants and EU-13 migrants in many EU member states. There are, however, indications that labour market inequalities as a result of segmentation among EU-13 migrants is less pronounced in Sweden. Previous research, both quantitative and qualitative, has shown surprisingly low levels of labour market segmentation among the employed. The structural differences on the labour market has, instead, been between the employed and unemployed, with a large employment gap between natives and all migrant groups including EU-13 migrants. We address the functional integration in the labour market from a longitudinal perspective, using several quantitative indicators to measure the degree of labour market segmentation. Natives and other migrant groups (EU-15 and refugees) are used as reference groups. Our results shows a low but increasing labour market segmentation among the employed born in EU-13 countries. The dissimilarity between employed natives and EU-13 workers is increasing, especially among men. Men from EU-13 countries is the only category where the occupational position has deteriorated. From having a similar occupational position as EU-15 migrants in 2007, their position in the labour market in 2015 is more similar to the refugee group. This development is driven by a large increase of Polish construction workers on the Swedishlabour market.

Does retrieval strategy disruption cause general and specific collaborative inhibition?

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of the experiment on collaborative memory was to investigate if the collaborative inhibition is due to collaborating pair's disruption of each others' retrieval strategies (the retrieval strategy disruption hypothesis, RSD). The participants' (N=36) task was to recall a list of 60 words individually and collaboratively. Retrieval strategies were manipulated by presenting word lists organised either by categories or by country of origin and adoption of retrieval strategies were examined by the adjusted ratio of clustering score. Half of the dyads received word lists organised by the same strategy and half of the dyads received word lists organised by different strategies. The results revealed a main effect of collaboration, i.e., collaborative recalled items were significantly fewer than the sum of the non-redundant individually recalled items. Both conditions (same strategies vs different strategies) suffered to the same extent from collaboration, which did not support the RSD hypothesis. However, focusing on words recalled individually but not collaboratively, dyads with different strategies, as predicted by the RSD, forgot more items during collaboration than did dyads with the same strategy. Additional results suggest that collaborative forgetting is mainly manifested by forgetting of non-overlapping items (as measured by individual recalls).

Opposites accord : Effects of individual performance variations on collaborative memory performance
- 2009
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Collaborative memory is traditionally assessed among persons with presumed equal memory capability, which is not always true in ecological settings. We have investigated collaborative memory performances both when a difference in memory performance within the pair is provoked and when it is not. This was manipulated by different encoding times in a within participant design. 20 pairs were presented with a word list for later recall. The word list was firstly recalled individually and afterwards collaboratively for both memory difference conditions. Nominal recall (the sum of the individual nonredundant performances) and collaborative recall was calculated. An interaction between type of recall and difference in memory performance was found, where collaborative recall at same memory performance was especially impaired by net negative effects of collaboration. These results are discussed in relation to item analysis of which words were recalled.
