Bakgrund: I flertal länder rapporterar sjuksköterskor en brist på vård av hög kvalitet och ett utbrett missnöje på arbetsplatsen. Detta leder till en hög omsättningen av sjuksköterskor då de väljer att lämna professionen. Arbetsmiljön är starkt kopplad till stress och personalbrist vilket innebär att omvårdnadsarbetet blir lidande. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka vilka faktorer som påve
The aim of this thesis is to study how social workers experience and understand the laws they are regulated by, and if they perceive that the laws give them the right conditions to fulfil their purpose(s). Social Services have the important task of protecting society’s vulnerable groups, one of them being children, which entails huge power over other people’s lives, which is why social workers are
The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is an upcoming experiment to test the existence of dark matter in the mass range of 1 MeV - 1 GeV. It does so by looking for missing momentum and energy in collisions of an electron beam and a tungsten target, which could potentially indicate the existence of dark matter. One of the main detector components of LDMX is the hadronic calorimeter, which is used
Environmental policy should be made up of scientific evidence. This thesis paper supports science based policy and its formulation through innovative communication strategies. It is important to be innovative in communicating science when dealing with the policy community as there could be confrontations owing to the nature of relation between science and policy. This is where the professional env
Credit rating agencies’ influence on capital markets has been a highly debated topic in the last decades, as their power and impact have not been established with clarity. Different characteristics have been found especially between larger and smaller markets, which makes it interesting to investigate how the Nordic market as a smaller market reacts to credit changes. This study investigates how t
Worldwide, many fisheries are under severe stress and extensive depletion of fish stocks is common. Besides overfishing an important problem preventing depleted stocks from recovery is that fish stocks are commonly managed following administrative rather than biological reasons. This stresses the importance of sub-stock-specific assessments for sustainable fisheries. The present study performed su
Informationssäkerhet blir allt mer aktuellt inom företagsvärlden. Information anses vara en organisations största tillgång och organisationer utsätts ständigt för inre och yttre hot. Traditionellt har man sett detta som ett tekniskt problem med tekniska lösningar, men det största hotet är de anställda som genom illvilja, omedvetet slarv eller brist på kunskap inte beter sig säkert. Detta hanteras
‘Fee & dividend’ (F&D) would incentivize the energy transition by levying an annually rising fee on fossil fuels. Simultaneously, all revenues would be given straight back to citizens, protecting a majority against price increases on products and services. Proponents say that this translates into broad popular support and makes the policy the most feasible option for realizing adequate car
A specific class of signaling proteins has been shown to affect adult hematopoiesis in mice, but little is known about the role that these proteins play during hematopoiesis in the fetal liver of the embryo. Here, we have studied and compared the in vitro and in vivo response to a cytokine in bone marrow and fetal liver hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). We have found that fetal live
This master thesis is a study of how three public libraries in Scania approach refugees in 2015: Helsingborg, Lund and Malmö’s public library. The Swedish Library Act states that public libraries should be available to and usable by all people. The purpose of this research is to find out to which degree public libraries have the possibilities to fulfill this Act, in terms of their organizational s
Ensuring a predefined level of reliability for applications running in distributed environments is a complex task. Having multiple identical copies of a task increases redundancy and thereby the reliability. Due to varying properties of the often heterogeneous and vast number of components used in distributed environments, using static analysis of the environment to determine how many copies are n
In this thesis I examine how the aggressive fracking-debate in the Canadian Province New Brunswick from 2010 onwards, and how the three participating actors (the fracking-critical Native Canadian group Elsipogtog First Nation, the non-native fracking-critical group New Brunswick Anti-Shale Gas Alliance (NBASGA) and the fossil fuel company Southwestern Energy Resources Canada) view nature in differ
In this Master’s thesis I aim to examine the usability in the Swedish National Archival Database to find out the archivists’ view on the usability in the database and how this may affect record finding in their everyday work. The empirical data consists of interviews with five archivists from five different archival institutions. NAD is a digital finding-aid for archival information. It is availa
In Europe, there are still a significant amount of residential fires. Particularly fires in the living room are a major threat to the occupants. Much research has been done to residential fires. However, there is still little known about the impact of the development of building structures and building content on the fire behaviour and room conditions. This report shows a clear view of how these d
The purpose of this report is to evaluate the fire safety for the visitors at China Teatern. The theatre is situated in central Stockholm, Sweden, and houses up to 1249 visitors. This report does not consider damage done to property or to the surrounding environment. After a visit at the theatre in February 2016, various data was gathered and analyzed. A dozen fire scenarios were identified and ev
Bakgrund: Kommunikation är en av hörnstenarna inom palliativ vårdfilosofi. Imogen Kings måluppfyllnadsteori lyfter kommunikation som en avgörande faktor för god omvårdnad. Syfte: Belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenhet av kommunikation med vuxna patienter inom palliativ vård Metod: Litteraturstudie Resultat: Utbildning och erfarenhet avgjorde hur bekväma sjuksköterskor var med att kommunicerade med pati
Humanitarian crises require a quick and effective emergency response to answer the needs of vulnerable populations. Deploying mobile health clinics in the field is an example of an outreach activity that can be undertaken for this purpose. This study is based on a real mission implemented by a medical international aid organization (MSF or Médecins Sans Frontières) in Cameroon during the recent Ce
A fire barriers are widely used in the industry as a passive fire protection system. Fire barriers are built according to specifications from manufacturer after the construction was tested in full scale furnace in accordance to the appropriate codes. Those tests are made private and the test results are not published apart from the failure/success of the tested sample. In order to accurately prote
The primary objective of the present study is to evaluate the effect of the fire source elevation on the main fire parameters, by implementing laboratory experiments. In modern Fire Safety Engineering practice, it is often assumed that fire always commences at the floor level. However, it is not always the case. For instance, many residential fires were initiated by the ignition of ovens and stove
