Gammahydroxybutyric acid: central biochemical and behavioral effects in neonatal rats.
- 1985
-
In: Pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavior. - 0091-3057. ; 23:2, s. 185-9
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Administration of gammahydroxybutyric acid (GHBA) to 4 days old animals caused a dose dependent decrease in locomotor activity. GHBA also induced a marked hypoventilation, irregular breathing and finally apnea, while heart rate was slightly increased. Changes in monoamine neurotransmitter turnover indicated an inhibition of dopamine (DA) neurotransmission. It is concluded that GHBA mechanisms in the neonatal rat brain are biochemically as well as functionally mature at an early age and that the effects on locomotor activity and respiratory regulation at least partly may involve interactions with central DA neurotransmission.

Employer attitudes towards refugee immigrants : Findings from a Swedish survey
- 2016
-
In: International labour review (Print). - : Wiley. - 0020-7780 .- 1564-913X. ; 155:2, s. 315-337
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Based on a large-scale survey of Swedish firms, the authors identify significant heterogeneity in their attitudes towards refugee hiring, job performance, wage setting and discrimination, though experience of employing refugees reduces negative attitudes. Firms' reasons for discontinuing their employment of refugees are not related to discrimination by staff or customers, but rather to refugees' suboptimal job performance. While the majority of firms do not regard the collectively agreed minimum wages as an important obstacle to the hiring of refugees, firms with a large share of refugees on the payroll report that reducing those wage rates would enhance employment substantially.

Distributional Effects of Wage Leadership: Evidence from Sweden
- 2009
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This paper represents the first analysis of the consequences of a formal wage leadership, the Swedish Industry Agreement. We show that leadership in general has implied a lowered wage level for occupational groups having signed the agreement compared to groups that have not signed it. This is as expected as wage leadership should stabilize wage increases. However, the effects differ widely across occupations and skilled groups that signed the agreement have raised their wage level compared to otherwise similar workers outside the agreement. The agreement seems to have had a less binding effect on skilled workers. A possible explanation is that local wage formation is more common among the skilled groups. The agreement has increased the wage level among high educated compared to low educated and thus raised the education premium. Difference-in-differences models are applied using register data 1990- 2005.

EUs fria arbetsmarknad : Kan Riksbanken skrota NAIRU-begreppet?
- 2010
-
In: Ekonomisk debatt. - Klippan. - 0345-2646. ; 38:6, s. 5-15
-
Journal article (pop. science, debate, etc.)abstract
- Ökningen av området för den fria rörligheten som följde av EUs utvidgning ledde till kraftiga ökningar av arbetsutbudet i framför allt Norge, Storbritannien och Irland. Efter att krisen lagt sig kan arbetsutbudet i Sverige komma att kunna öka kraftigt under en lång tid framöver genom invandring, inte bara från nya EU-länder utan också från tredje land såsom Indien och Kina. Vakanser kan tillsättas utan hämmande löneinflation med betydelse för penningpolitiken där begreppet NAIRU efter hand kan förväntas bli irrelevant. I stället måste Riksbanken beakta t ex arbetskraftens utbudselasticitet i utvandringsländerna, konkurrensen om arbetskraft från andra höglöneländer, som underlag för sina penningpolitiska beslut.

Invandringspolitik för cirkulär migration
- 2009
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Den grundläggande tanken bakom cirkulär migration är att arbetare ska uppmuntras att flytta flera gånger mellan sändar- och mottagarländer för att på så vis effektivisera både ursprungslandets och mottagarlandets ekonomier. Diskussionerna har i hög grad handlat om högutbildad personal från utvecklingsländer, där motivet har varit att minimera risken för ”brain drain”, det vill säga att utvecklingsländernas förlust av högutbildad personal inverkar menligt på deras utvecklingspotential. Rapporten fokuserar framför allt på i vilken utsträckning det är ett problem att högutbildade utvandrar från fattigare länder och diskuterar vilka problem som kan uppstå när en politik för cirkulär migration utformas.
