METHODOLOGY AND PARTICIPANTS: A qualitative inductive follow-up study with 13 individual and one focus group interview including four parents. Altogether ten mothers and seven fathers representing 12 families, who had been
We are increasingly dependent on Internet as a large aspect of our daily life is now handled via online applications. Recent years we have seen several large-scale crises. This has made crisis-related research on Internet applications important. We need the applications to be available at any time, so there is a need to increase availability during heavy overload, both in crises and during normal
In the recent decades, one of the most phenomenal changes in many universities in Western countries is the dramatically increase of students from China. Subsequently, the thesis author mentioned that general view concerning educational tourism associates educational tourists with the international students’ mobility. This has emerged as an important part of the university students’tourism market.
The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether the reverse charge mechanism is an efficient method to solve the VAT fraud problem in the construction sector in Sweden. To be able to answer the stated question, the effects of the reverse charge mechanism will be evaluated. The effects of the reverse charge mechanism are then analysed as to whether they are proportional to the goal, which is to de
The Church of Sweden has a long history of social work, and until year 2000 the Church of Sweden was a part of the government. Officially, the divorce between the two has not implied other changes than that each one is now in charge of its own economy. This study was done with a qualitative method in which semi-structured interviews were conducted with three deacons and three social workers. The a
The ever increasing volume of air transport necessitates new technologies to be adopted by the flight industry to fulfill the requirements of safety, security, affordability, and environmental friendliness while still meeting the growing demand. What we need to achieve this goal is a new type of aircraft cruise control, interconnecting all the onboard active control systems and making more accurat
Performance based building (PBB) and design is closely connected to various needs and requirements: Performance levels need to be defined, test methods for verification of performance need to be developed, and reliable performance data are needed for materials, products, constructions, and different design solutions. In contrast to other building materials, PBB and thus service life prediction of
The capacity for volatile isoprenoid production under standardized environmental conditions at a certain time (E-S, the emission factor) is a key characteristic in constructing isoprenoid emission inventories. However, there is large variation in published E-S estimates for any given species partly driven by dynamic modifications in E-S due to acclimation and stress responses. Here we review addit
The extreme weather in terms of drought and heat, which prevailed in Northern Europe during the growing season 2018, had serious consequences for food production and farmers in southern Sweden. Many questions regarding farm production came to a head as drought struck directly against farmers land, economy and wellbeing and hence created vulnerability. This paper analyzes how farmers experienced th
Despite emergency and essential surgery and anaesthesia care being recognised as a part of Universal Health Coverage, 5 billion people worldwide lack access to safe, timely and affordable surgery and anaesthesia care. In Tanzania, 19% of all deaths and 17 % of disability-adjusted life years are attributable to conditions amenable to surgery. It is recommended that countries develop and implement N
Abstracts: This study was inspired from the lecture by Nils Erik Hansson's called "Housing with special services according to LSS-Act" (2011) in which the lecturer noticed some shortcomings in the implementation of the LSS- Act, in particular concerning difficulties in moving away from institutional behavior in the housing for behavior in which the patient's wishes is the focus
Author: Mia Nelson Kurdve & Malin Törneld Title: “It’s up to each and everyone. But at the same time…” - A study about social workers’ approach to alcohol, when working with substance abuse. (Translated title) Supervisor: Hanna Wittrock Assessor: Malinda Andersson The purpose of this paper is to investigate if there are differences and contradictions between alcohol norms in society in genera
This master’s dissertation comprises a life cycle assessment (LCA) of a changing table, which mainly constitutes of FSC certified wood. Results per functional unit showed global warming potential of 12,5 kg CO2 eq, creation of ground level ozone 2,17 g C2H4 eq, emitting of acidifying substances 39,4 g SO2 eq and energy consumption 93,5 MJ during the estimated product life length of 12,5 years. The
Abstract The purpose of this study was dual. First, I aimed to examine primary care counsellors’ attitudes towards Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Socialstyrelsen’s recommendation that CBT should be the main treatment option for depression and anxiety disorders. Second, I aimed to explore the counsellors’ discretion in their daily work and whether these recommendations limit their discreti
The purpose of this study is to examine if Muslims and Jezidier from the Middle East experience changes in them self when they live in Sweden and how they feel about apply for work in the Swedish labour market. The study uses the individualistic - collectivistic dimension to describe the differences between the Swedish culture and the participants home culture. A phenomenological, theoretical and
An essential part of a performance-based service life design format for wood exposed in outdoor applications is the effect of proper detailing in terms of avoiding moisture traps. Models for predicting degradation and non-performance caused by decay are functions of arbitrary climate history of combined moisture content and temperature. Therefore it is crucial to be able to predict the behaviour o
1. Thousands of lakes in the Northern Hemisphere are experiencing a continuous increase in water temperature and colour. While increasing temperature is an effect of climate change, several factors are suggested to drive the increasing water colour, including climate change, altered land use and reversed acidification. 2. In this mesocosm study, we study the effects on pelagic production and sedim
Women in developing countries have been and are still suffering from various disadvantages on the labor market. We use a fixed effects model with a hierarchical structure to assess the empirical relationship between economic integration, measured by trade, exports and imports, and the female labor force participation rate (FLFPR). The relationship between economic integration and the female employ
Intresseområdet som la grunden för studien baseras på våra egna tankar om att upprätthålla ett musikerskap i kombination med vårt framtida arbete som musiklärare. Syftet med studien är att undersöka musiklärares uppfattningar kring deras eget musikerskap i kombination med en musiklärargärning. Fyra forskningsfrågor utformades för att genom intervjustudie samt enkät kartlägga uppfattningarna kring The topic of the study was inspired from our own ambitions of maintaining a musicianship in combination with our future profession as music teachers. The purpose of the study was to research music teachers’ perception of their own musicianship in combination with their work in schools. The empirical framework consists of four questions that through interview study and a survey aim to map out music
