The dynamics of power and violence in martial arts
This theoretical essay explores the levels at which, in what mimetic form, and for what purpose violence and power are employed in martial arts. The underlying research question is which dynamics and transformations of (active and passive) power alter the power equilibrium in fights and characterise the violent practices of martial arts. To clarify these questions, basic concepts from the theory of power – such as authority, dominance, prestige, …
Sustainable Futuristic Energy Scenarios for Low‐Carbon Industrial Heritage
Addressing climate challenges related to carbon emissions, particularly after the Industrial Revolution, is one of our current major global issues. Today, many industrial heritage sites have become abandoned and are known as wastelands. The adaptive reuse of these sites has been recognized as a potential and effective solution to prevent environmental damage while preserving their unique characteristics. Moreover, the conservation of industrial h…
Loet Leydesdorff, the Triple Helix and ways to capture societal impact—a tribute
Much can be said about the seminal contributions Loet Leydesdorff has made overall to the literature on science & technology indicators and innovation. Many have already highlighted the legacy that Loet has left behind (e.g., Amaral et al in Triple Helix 10:161–187, 2024). This note sets out to pay tribute to the contributions Loet has made in the space of Triple Helix, indicators, and societal impact by developing frameworks and models that brid…
Neural correlates of processing case in adults and children
Sentence-initial arguments with role-specific case markers (e.g., accusatives) have been reported to be processed slower than arguments with default case markers (e.g., nominatives), both in adults and children. However, the evidence for this comes from studies that conflate word order and case, comparing initial arguments with default case and fronted (scrambled) arguments with role-specific case. Here, we disentangle these effects by studying t…

The Agent Preference in Visual Event Apprehension
A central aspect of human experience and communication is understanding events in terms of agent (“doer”) and patient (“undergoer” of action) roles. These event roles are rooted in general cognition and prominently encoded in language, with agents appearing as more salient and preferred over patients. An unresolved question is whether this preference for agents already operates during apprehension, that is, the earliest stage of event processing,…
Patterns of Detachment
The establishment of phosphate mines and processing plants by Italian entrepreneurs in el-Quseir in 1912 revitalized a town that had faced a steady decline after the opening of the Suez Canal and re-linked it to the world economy. To this day, the now defunct industrial site occupies a large section of physical el-Quseir and plays a key role in its identity. In this article, we explore the impact of the company’s successive industrialization and …
Cognitive Benefits of Learning Additional Languages in Old Adulthood? Insights from an Intensive Longitudinal Intervention Study
Second language (L2) learning has been promoted as a promising intervention to stave off age-related cognitive decline. While previous studies based on mean trends showed inconclusive results, this study is the first to investigate nonlinear cognitive trajectories across a 30-week training period. German-speaking older participants (aged 64–75 years) enrolled for a Spanish course, strategy game training (active control) or movie screenings (passi…
Cross-linguistic differences in case marking shape neural power dynamics and gaze behavior during sentence planning
Languages differ in how they mark the dependencies between verbs and arguments, e.g., by case. An eye tracking and EEG picture description study examined the influence of case marking on the time course of sentence planning in Basque and Swiss German. While German assigns an unmarked (nominative) case to subjects, Basque specifically marks agent arguments through ergative case. Fixations to agents and event-related synchronization (ERS) in the th…

Mediatizing Slum Relocation in Egypt
In Egypt, the relocation of residents of informal areas of housing into “proper” living environments is presented as a major political achievement offering citizens a much-improved quality of life. Therefore, it is not surprising that, following the Arab Uprisings, the current regime is widely publicizing relocation projects as success stories on TV and social media. As a way of garnering legitimization and securing stability, this official repre…
How a Depressive Medical Doctor Profited in the Long-Term from a New and Short Psychological Group-Treatment against Major Depressive Disorder
Background: Individuals suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) often describe workplace-related stress as one of the main causes of their disorder. Here, we present the story of a 33 year old "Bob" (a pseudonym) who suffered from a moderate (Hamilton-21 = 18) major depressive episode. Workplace-related stress seemed to be the main stressor for Bob at the time. We were interested in long-lasting effects of a newly established group called …

Case Syncretism, Animacy, and Word Order in Continental West Germanic
To understand a sentence, it is crucial to understand who is doing what. The interplay of morphological case marking, argument serialization, and animacy provides linguistic cues for the processing system to rapidly identify the thematic roles of the arguments. The present event-related brain potential (ERP) study investigates on-line brain responses during argument identification in Zurich German, a High Alemannic dialect, and in Fering, a North…

Alexithymia Is Associated with Tinnitus Severity
We found an independent association between the subjective experience of tinnitus severity and alexithymic characteristics, particularly with regard to limitations in the fields of mental, social, and physical functioning because of tinnitus and the difficulty of identifying feelings facet of alexithymia. These findings are conducive to a better understanding of affect regulation that may be important for the psychological adaptation of patients …
Can processes make relationships work? The Triple Helix between structure and action
This contribution seeks to explore how complex adaptive theory can be applied at the conceptual level to unpack Triple Helix models. We use two cases to examine this issue – the Finnish Strategic Centres for Science, Technology & Innovation (SHOKs) and the Canadian Business-led Networks of Centres of Excellence (BL-NCE). Both types of centres are organisational structures that aspire to be business-led, with a considerable portion of their activi…
Where is applied research going
This special issue brings together a number of contributions that explore relationships at the intersection between university, industry and government. As is so often the case, a workshop provided the starting point for discussions that have ultimately led to this collection of articles. The London Triple Helix conference 2013 served as the venue for a number of us to meet and discuss where applied research might be going. Unsurprisingly, rather…

FMRI in Patients With Motor Conversion Symptoms and Controls With Simulated Weakness
Background: Conversion disorder (motor type) describes weakness that is not due to recognized disease or conscious simulation but instead is thought to be a “psychogenic” phenomenon. It is a common clinical problem in neurology but its neural correlates remain poorly understood. Objective: To compare the neural correlates of unilateral functional weakness in conversion disorder with those in healthy controls asked to simulate unilateral weakness.…

The Emergence of Novel Science-related Fields
Meyer M., Libaers D. and Park J.-H. The emergence of novel science-related fields: regional or technological patterns? Exploration and exploitation in United Kingdom nanotechnology, Regional Studies. An extensive literature addresses the emergence of new technologies in their geographical and cognitive context. Drawing on a spatial innovation systems approach, this issue is explored for a newly emerging area: nano-science and nanotechnology. This…
