Daily occupations form a pattern dominated by a few main occupations intertwined with hidden occupations. A third category is denoted unexpected occupations or minor events that interrupt the rhythm of main and hidden occupations. The phenomenon of unexpected occupations can be interpreted as an illustration of interruptions in daily life or daily minor stressors. The study aimed to investigate wo

The theme of men and women is conspicuous in T. S. Eliot's early poetry. It constitutes the subject of this study, which is an investigation of the symbolic images, metaphors and similes associated with this theme. When a man/woman relationship is referred to, the relevant imagery is often taken from historical or mythical narratives, suggesting an element of universal applicability. Painful feeli

Efficient policy instruments for reducing the emission of greenhouse gases are essential for the realisation of a successful climate policy. General economic policy instruments have the potential for providing efficient emission reduction as they equalise marginal costs for emission reduction between different actors. They also provide incentives for a great variety of responses such as energy eff

Predators exert strong regulating forces on lower trophic levels through predation. As most fish are visual foragers, visual conditions in the water may alter the strength of this regulation. We evaluated effects of turbidity and humic water on foraging efficiency and prey-size selectivity in Northern pike (Esox lucius) feeding on roach (Rutilus rutilus). Encounter rates decreased in both turbid a

Using a multilevel approach, this study investigates direct (perceptual, emotional, and physiological responses [qEEG]) and reflected (preference, attitude, and intention to accept conservation measures) appraisal of different levels of biodiversity in temperate deciduous broad-leaf forest biotopes. Thirty-five participants viewed three series of zoomed pictures from biotopes assessed according to

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate technical skills in a coronary angiography (CA) simulator to establish the performance level of trainees and experts in virtual CA.The traditional master-apprentice way of learning CA is by practicing on patients despite a known risk for complications during training. Safe CA training is warranted, and simulators might be one possibility. Simulat

There are obvious and essential links between human rights (often referred to as fundamental rights in the internal EU context) and administrative action – also at the level of the EU. Administrative law may negatively interfere with human rights positions. At the same time good administration is in itself an entitlement guaranteed by human rights as most prominently evidenced by Article 41 of the

Det finns huvudsakligen två typer av polygama äktenskap i svensk rätt. Det första är fall av tvegifte, vilka utgör ett brott enligt 7 kap. 1 § BrB. Det andra är fall av polygama äktenskap som ingåtts i utlandet. Polygama äktenskap som ingåtts i utlandet erkänns i Sverige under förutsättning att personerna vid äktenskapets ingående saknade anknytning till Sverige. Därutöver krävs att det polygama äThere are mainly two types of polygamous marriages in Swedish law. The first is the case of bigamy, which constitutes a crime under Chapter 7. § 1 of the Swedish Penal Code. The second is the case of polygamous marriages contracted abroad. Polygamous marriages contracted abroad are recognized in Sweden, provided that the persons in the marriage lack any kind of connections to Sweden. In addition,

Commercialising low-carbon innovations implies complex issues to be managed but is a necessity to attain a transition of industries for a sustainable future. This thesis investigates how an innovator can facilitate the adoption of their low-carbon innovation among stakeholders within the food industry. The case of Volta Greentech’s commercialisation of methane-reducing feed supplement for cattle i

Ingen tidigare forskning har belyst hur social önskvärdhet som en faktor kan påverka sambanden mellan personlighetsdragen i Big Five och den mörka triaden. Den föreliggande studiens syfte är således att undersöka relationen dem emellan för att se hur tendensen att svara på ett socialt önskvärt sätt påverkar dess relationer. Respondenterna (N=249) var mellan 18 och 73 år, dominerades av det kvinnli
