This paper will deal with the complex interaction between our individual freedom (independence) and our deep need of other people (dependency). Western women often say that non-Western women are not free as a consequence of tradition and culture. It is rarer that we question our own so called freedom. My main purpose is to take a closer look at the relationship between independence and neediness i
Foodstuff leads too pollution of the environmental and is also a big economic issue for the municipalities in Sweden. In my study I research how different foodstuff causes different emissions of greenhouse gases. My study shows that it differs a lot between different foodstuffs but it’s hard to say how much it differs though the study’s uses different methods. I also compare different action progr
The MentLife mentorship program aims to support young researchers interested in a career within life science industry. The program was founded in 2013 by Lars Erik Edholm and is since 2019 organized by the Careers Center at the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University. Mentor Helen Sjögren and mentee Diahann Atacho share their experiences from the program. Helen Sjögren, Senior Principal Scientist a
Since the last half of the twentieth century, population ageing has increasingly become a problem for countries all over the world. The literature on population ageing is very well- established, however, it is lacking in one significant respect. That is, hardly any research has been done on how population ageing may affect international trade. Therefore, this thesis seeks to establish this effect.
Generation of good non-repeatable and non-predictable random number sequences is of increasing importance, both in security applications and in simulations. A novel, compact system is presented in which a secure random number is generated by sampling a chaotic system and using this bitstream as the input to a pseudo-random generator. An optional hash function can be used on the seed in order to de
The aim of this study was to examine the alcohol culture amongst students in social work at Lund University, but with different places of study, i.e. Lund and Helsingborg. The studies purpose was to see if there was any difference between the genders as well as between the two places of study in question about drinking behavior according to AUDIT. To be able to meet the aims of the study I used a
Tema 2022 De senaste åren har en rad initiativ* tagits för att lyfta fram hållbarhet som ett flerdimensionellt koncept, som omfattar både miljömässiga, sociala och ekonomiska dimensioner. Syftet har ofta varit att integrera de tre hållbarhetsdimensionerna i ett enhetligt system och omvandla miljömässiga värden till siffror. På så vis har man velat göra det möjligt att integrera naturen och de värd

Ever since Lipsky wrote about street-level bureaucrats in 1980 the main belief has been that certain characteristics of their jobs make it exceptionally difficult to severely reduce their discretion. However, discretion comes at a price and if public servants abuse their power the legitimacy of government is at risk and ultimately even the democracy. This thesis address this question by analysing
MARINE UTOPIAS. The Savior of the Baltic Sea and the Secret Love Life of Seaweed The marine environment has an important part to play in the change- over to a green economy, where the blue fields of the sea can form new and expanded cultivation spaces. The seas and oceans have always been a resource for food, containing complex ecosystems providing valuable biodiversity. Today we see a growing int

Lund University is now taking the next step towards a more secure IT environment. To protect ourselves against today's increased threats, secure passwords alone are not enough; we also need strong authentication to log in to our IT services. Currently, this only applies to Lund University staff, not students.Strong authentication is a way of signing in to an IT service that makes it harder for som

This thesis discusses the Swedish drug policy and its principle of prohibition. In the world of today there is an ongoing discussion about prohibition and the concept of harm reduction. This thesis is an analysis of Swedish drug policy and an investigation as to whether the prohibition concept is in a state of decline. It tries to answer the question; is the Swedish drug policy moving away from it

By combining field-theoretical methods and ab initio calculations, we construct an effective Hamiltonian with a single giant-spin degree of freedom, which is capable of describing the low-energy spin dynamics of ferromagnetic metal nano-clusters consisting of up to a few tens of atoms. In our procedure, the magnetic moment direction of the Kohn-Sham spin density functional wave function is constra
This package facilitates working with probability distributions by means of Monte-Carlo methods, in a way that allows for propagation of probability distributions through functions. This is useful for, e.g., nonlinear uncertainty propagation. A variable or parameter might be associated with uncertainty if it is measured or otherwise estimated from data. We provide two core types to represent proba

Sweden and Malmö are widely considered forerunners of climate change mitigation and adaptation, both internationally and by self-proclamation. Political will, available resources, and public knowledge are fairly high. National and local policies and regulations are in place, and a dominant majority of Swedes is well informed about climate change and the associated obligations, seeing climate chang
Genus-specific, sRNA discovery in marine Synechococcus The most ubiquitously distributed, picocyanobacteria, Synechococcus significantly contribute to global, oceanic primary productivity and are pivotal players in biogeochemical cycling. Because of the distribution and significant contribution of picocyanobacterial to global processes, there have been many studies on gene expression and their tr
Students’ beliefs about division by zero and numbers on the number line werestudied through explanations of the concepts in questionnaires and interviewsduring their teacher education to become primary school teachers in the years4–6.

Engagement in daily occupations, especially those perceived as meaningful, is essential for health and well-being. According to evaluation reports, many individuals with persistent mental illness seem to lack meaningful everyday occupations. The aim of this thesis was to investigate possible relationships between occupation, operationalised as time use and daily rhythm in daily activities, among i
