Emergent attributes in person perception: A comparative test of response time predictions.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2008)
In person perception, emergent attributes are attributes that people ascribe to members of a rare or novel category combination, although they would not ascribe the same attributes to members of either of the constituent categories. The present paper first describes the processing mechanisms suggested by three theoretical models of attribute emergence. Then, competing response time predictions are ...
Pit and fissure sealants in dental public health – application criteria and general policy in Finland
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2009-02-04)
Background: Pit and fissure sealants (sealants) are widely used as a non-operative preventive
method in public dental health in Finland. Most children under 19 years of age attend the

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2010)
o determine the genetic composition of the first VanA-type plasmid (pIP816) reported, which was isolated from a clinical Enterococcus faecium (BM4147) strain in France in 1986, and to reveal the genetic units responsible for the dissemination of the vanA gene cluster by comparisons with current, published and additionally generated vanA-spanning plasmid sequences obtained from a heterogeneous E. ...
The recent transfer of a homing endonuclease gene
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2005)
The myxomycete Didymium iridis (isolate Panama 2)
contains a mobile group I intron named Dir.S956-1
after position 956 in the nuclear small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene. The intron is efficiently spread through homing by the intron-encoded homing endonuclease I-DirI. Homing endonuclease genes (HEGs) usually spread with their associated introns as a unit, but infrequently also spread independent of ...
