Syftet med studien är att bidra till ökad kunskap med förhoppning att producera argument till varför arbetsgivare bör investera i mental hälsa genom att undersöka frågorna: 1) Finns det samband mellan medarbetares personlighet och upplevelsen av att det är viktigt att deras arbetsgivare investerar i mental hälsa? 2) Finns det samband mellan personlighet och upplevelsen av övergripande välmående? The purpose of our study is to contribute to increased knowledge with the hope of producing arguments as to why employers should invest in mental health by investigating the questions: 1) How does employee personality relate to the experience that it is important that their employers invest in mental health? 2) How does personality relate to the experience of overall well-being? The results are ba

Due to the civil war in Yemen, a Saudi-led operation was established on 26 March 2015 in Yemeni territory. The intervention, called "Operation Decisive Storm," was legitimized by the UN as a military intervention at the request of Yemeni President Abdrabuh Mansour Hadi. This thesis aims to examine the grounds on which Operation Decisive Storm has justified and the underlying factors that

This research is investigating the socio-ecological benefits of Indigenous Knowledge in law and decision making, focusing on the inclusion of the indigenous concept Sumak Kawsay, translated to Buen Vivir, and the Constitutional Rights of Nature in Ecuador. The Eurocentric and dominant cultural model has had a monopoly on the production of knowledge ever since the start of colonialism but today'

A central challenge in water electrolysis lies with the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) where the formation of molecular oxygen (O2) is hindered by the constraint of angular momentum conservation. While the reactants OH− or H2O are diamagnetic (DM), the O2 product has a paramagnetic (PM) triplet ground state, requiring a change in spin configuration when being formed. This constraint has prompted

This chapter presents the long-term clinical outcomes and prognosis of COVID-19. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has triggered a global pandemic infecting over 773 million people and causing over seven million deaths worldwide as of December 2023 (WHO Coronavirus). Despite the United Nations proclaimed the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic officially over on M

Since Jean-Paul Sartre’s conception of le regard des autres in 1943, ‘the gaze’ has taken on many manifestations. The male gaze, the white gaze, the imperial gaze, the postcolonial gaze. All imply a power to objectify, to define an Other, usually from a distance or even, as Donna Haraway described objectivity, from 'nowhere.' Museums have always held the power to define Others while claiming objec

Outliers pose a problem in all real structure from motion systems. Due to the use of automatic matching methods one has to expect that a (sometimes very large) portion of the detected correspondences can be incorrect. In this paper we propose a method that estimates the relative translation between two cameras and simultaneously maximizes the number of inlier correspondences. Traditionally, outlie

A series of structures of trans-[MX(2)(PBz(3))(2)] [M = Pt, X = Cl(-); PBz(3) = tribenzylphosphine (1), I(-), trans-diiodobis(tribenzylphosphine)platinum(II) (2), and NCS(-), trans-di(thiocyanate)bis(tribenzylphosphine)platinum(II) (3); M = Pd, X = I(-), trans-diiodobis(tribenzylphosphine)palladium(II) (4)] have been characterized by X-ray crystallography. In all compounds each tribenzylphosphine

Många beteenden hos djur kan vara oflexibla och mer eller mindre ”hard-wired” i hjärnan. Sådana beteenden kan vara ändamålsenliga för regelbundna och rytmiska förändringar i naturen, såsom dag och natt, årstider, etc. Men många faktorer är naturligtvis oförutsägbara i naturen. För sådana oförutsägbara förändringar är det bättre för djur att vara flexibla i sitt beteende. Kognition är en process soThe Paridae (tits, titmice and chickadees) is a bird family consisting of both food hoarding and non-hoarding species. Many studies have been conducted on birds that are considered to be cognitively advanced, such as parrots and corvids, whereas much less is known about these small passerines. In this thesis, I have investigated the cognitive abilities of two members of the Paridae family; marsh t

It is hoped that information garnered from studies on population genetics will one day be translated into a form in which it meaningfully improves the prediction, prevention or treatment of type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes genetics researchers have made extraordinary progress in identifying common genetic variants that are associated with type 2 diabetes, which has shed light on the biological pat
