Abstract Authors: Nina Niemelä and Christian Persson Title: About the art of being a relative – a qualitative research about being the relative of a person who is abusing drugs Supervisor: Lars Harrysson This study is written as an attempt to shed light on the relatives to people who are abusing drugs or alcohol. We have aimed to explain and research how the relatives are effected by and handle t

It’s widely known that adolescent crime is a problem and work as a threat to our society. Even though it’s not a new phenomenon we still don’t know for sure how to explain the youth’s criminal behavior. Instead we tend to create our own understanding which is heavily affected by our surroundings. How can one explain adolescent crime? Are there risk factors that are more dominant than others? To ge

The trope solution to the problem of mental causation combines a trope monism, i.e. that properties are tropes and all tropes are physical, with a type dualism, i.e. that although all tropes are of a physical type, there are subsets of tropes that are also of a mental type. It does so in order to reconcile three individually plausible yet seemingly incompatible principles that together would ensur

Syftet med examensarbetet var att undersöka hur användbarhet beaktas och inkluderas vid köp av verksamhetssystem inom kommunal vård och omsorg. Verksamhetssystem som upplevs som användbara av personalen kan effektivisera det dagliga arbetet samt bespara kommuner tid och pengar. Målet med arbetet var att besvara fyra frågor om användbarhet relaterat till kravspecifikationerna samt slutanvändarna. The purpose of the thesis was to investigate how usability is included when purchasing operational systems within the Swedish municipal health care sector. Systems, which are perceived as usable by the users, may cause the daily tasks to be executed more efficiently and effectively. Consequently, the municipalities can save time and money. The goal of the thesis was to answer four stipulated que

Non-communicable, or chronic, diseases (NCDs) are the major contributors to the mortality worldwide. In Ukraine, where the primary causes of deaths are chronic cardiovascular diseases, a healthcare domain suffers from insufficient financial provision, facilities and resources, and the lack of attention to social aspects of poor health conditions. The aim of this research is to explore social conse

58 million children around the world lack access to education, and another 250 million children only have access to unfit schools with poor quality. Through interviews with volunteer teachers and social workers conducted during three weeks of fieldwork in Tehran, this study maps the educational situation of undocumented Afghan migrant children living in Iran, in order to understand the role of edu

The aim of this thesis is to survey and map out what it means to believe in unexplainable phenomena, that is phenomena not scientifically explained, in a secular late modern society. The study is explorative and used methods are five focus group interviews supplemented with a questionnaire, performed in southwest of Sweden. Used theories in the inductive analysis to explain belief in unexplainable

Dark matter accounts for about 85% of all matter in the Universe, yet its particle nature remains unknown. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is a proposed fixed-target missing-momentum experiment that intends to probe the predominantly experimentally uncharted MeV-GeV mass range for "light dark matter". A significant challenge for LDMX is to efficiently veto rare photo-nuclear back

The COP21 Paris Agreement is considered a milestone on the way to limiting global warming to 1.5°C. For the first time in history, a climate convention is signed by all 198 members of the UNFCCC, with each signatory state being responsible for developing their own climate strategy that considers the national circumstances. Given Canada’s colonial history, the Canadian government has a special res

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka psykologers attityd och kunskap avseende transpersoner och icke-binära, samt hur det påverkar bemötande. Med utgångspunkt i binäritet och icke-binäritet studerades detta utifrån ett socialpsykologiskt perspektiv med integrering av genusvetenskaplig teori. Studien var en mixed methods design då den hade både en kvantitativ samt kvalitativ datainsamlings- ocThe aim of this study was to examine the attitude and knowledge of psychologists in regard to transgender and non-binary people, and how it affects their treatment. Based on gender binary and non-binary this was investigated by integrating the main perspective of social psychology with gender studies. This study was a mixed methods design, producing and analyzing both quantitative and qualitative

This chapter explores the evolution and effectiveness of Sweden's climate policy mix for decarbonizing the transport sector—a major contributor to national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Despite early leadership in climate policy, Sweden faces challenges in aligning policy implementation with ambitious goals, such as a 70 % reduction in transport emissions by 2030. The chapter shows that Sweden's

The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence and comorbidity of persisting attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adult psychiatric outpatients. Consecutive patients, first visits excluded, at a general psychiatric outpatient clinic were offered a screening for childhood ADHD with the Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS). One hundred and forty-one patients out of 398 (35%) com

Development of artificial neural network (ANN) models using real plant data for the prediction of fresh steam properties from a brown coal-fired boiler of a Slovenian power plant is reported. Input parameters for this prediction were selected from a large number of available parameters. Initial selection was made on a basis of expert knowledge and previous experience. However, the final set of inp

We present deep Hubble Space Telescope ACS observations of the G1 clump, a distinct stellar overdensity lying at similar to 30 kpc along the southwestern major axis of M31, close to the G1 globular cluster ( from the work of Ferguson and coworkers). Our well-populated color-magnitude diagram reaches similar to 7 mag below the red giant branch tip with 90% completeness, and allows the detection of

The field of phylogenomics has emerged during the last five years, as the number of fully or partially sequenced genomes has increased rapidly. Using whole genomes for phylogenetic studies greatly increases the accuracy of the trees determined, and can potentially resolve phylogenetic questions that could not be resolved bu studies using only a few gene sequences. In the current thesis selected p

BACKGROUND: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common infection diagnosis in children, and efficient diagnosis and treatment are important to avoid serious complications. In this study we investigated whether urinary levels of neutrophil-derived heparin-binding protein (HBP) can be used as a marker of UTI in children. These results were compared to those of dipstick analysis, interleukin-6 (IL-6)
