I tried to find elements that influence preschool teachers to choose to work with gender and equality. Some of these elements a

The aim of this paper is to analyze Peter Linde’s sculpture the Statue of Zlatan as a work of art in a public space and what kind of meaning is produced through its different kinds of expressions. Based on theories concerning public art, ancient Greek and Roman sculptural traditions and iconoclasm, this paper explains how the sculpture is drawing on older sculptural traditions to narrate the obser

The work as a social worker comes with a great responsibility when it comes to making decisions that may impact people's lives. The social worker has the opportunity to make a professional decision by using the information that has been provided from the clients.

Previous literature and studies state that youths having sex for compensation often have

I och med den fria rörligheten i Europa så kommer utländska företag med största sannolikhet även framöver att utföra byggnadsarbeten i Sverige. Därför krävs fler studier om säkerhets- och arbetsmiljöarbetet på byggarbetsplatser med utländsk arbetskraft. Likaså behöver fler undersökningar göras om hur kommunikationen kan förbättras mellan svenska och utländska arbetstagare. God kommunikation är en Since the number of posted workers and companies on the Swedish labour market most likely won’t decrease in the foreseeable future, more studies on safety and working environment on construction sites with foreign workers will be needed. Likewise more studies on how the communication can improve between Swedish and foreign workers are required, since good communication is a determining factor when

Distinctive new features of the Egyptian bureaucracy have followed the process of economic liberalization and privatization that began in 1991. The Egyptian bureaucracy is excessively large and suffers from inefficiencies and low capacity, but dealing with prioritized policy areas, such as privatization, experts have been recruited to so called “Technical Offices” that are closely tied to the cabi

While the Swedish debate on crime often centers around crime, punishment, and offenders, there is notably less attention dedicated to those who are exposed to crime. This discrepancy is particularly evident in the lack of comprehensive theories explaining who becomes a victim. This thesis investigates whether a pattern can be identified between what kind of background or exposure of crime and bein

The traditional engineering approach to manage urban drainage is by combined or separated sewers. In urban catchments, drainage systems may include different types of storage and detention facilities to avoid flooding from heavy rainfall. However, during recent decades, alternative ways to manage floods have evolved since traditional methods often harm the riverine ecosystems by pollution and eros

Severe obesity during childhood is associated with cognitive deficits. Studies in adults have suggested improvements in executive functioning and memory after bariatric surgery. Our aim was to explore changes in cognitive function in adolescents over two years after bariatric surgery or intensive non-surgical treatment. Methods: The Adolescent Morbid Obesity Surgery 2 (AMOS2) is a multicentre, ope

We report post-hoc 24-month efficacy and safety data from this trial to evaluate the longer-term effects of etranacogene dezaparvovec in indiv
