This study aims to discover the impact of face-to-face and digital communication channels on effective communication, focusing on their roles in mitigating resistance and creating readiness for change, ultimately leading to a reduction in resistance during change processes. The result is generated through a mixed method: literature research that reveals the role of communication in change processe
Uppsatsens syfte är att identifiera faktorer och undersöka hur värderingen av dessa påverkat entreprenörer som valt EQCF vid deras val av finansieringsmetod samt om dessa entreprenörer värderar faktorerna annorlunda jämfört med entreprenörer som inte valt EQCF. Ytterligare ämnar vi undersöka huruvida EQCF idag används som en komplementerade finansieringsmetod till traditionella finansieringsmetode
Bakgrund: Tvångsåtgärder fyller en funktion inom psykiatrisk slutenvård, framförallt i syfte att öka säkerheten för personal och patienter. Användandet av tvångsåtgärder är förenat med en stor inskränkning i patientens autonomi och kan medföra fysiska såväl som psykiska skador. Syfte: Att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser av tvångsåtgärder inom psykiatrisk slutenvård. Metod: Uppsatsen genomförd
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is a global arbitration court which has ruled in sports law since its establishment in 1981. The arbitration court is the main court in sport disputes and acts as the last resort where subjects of sport can appeal decisions from different sport bodies to which they are bound and that includes an arbitration clause to CAS in the relevant statute. Although pa
Sweden is one of the countries in Europe with the largest percentage of volunteers in the population. At the same time, challenges in the society are increasing. Events such as the migration crisis 2015, the wildfires 2018 and the Covid-19 pandemic have shown an expanding interest among people to contribute to society. As a private person it can be hard to know where to start when wanting to becom
Tail risk metrics such as VaR and, especially ES are and have become of great importance to both investors and financial institutions such as banks in determining their amount of loss absorbing capital given the Basel framework. Estimating these metrics have become trivial, but to do it accurately while also taking market conditions such as periods of market stress into account still presents chal
Syftet med studien är att öka kunskapen kring samspelet mellan varumärkens hållbarhetsuppfattning hos konsumenter och deras kundbaserade varumärkeskapital. Undersökningen bygger på en kvalitativ studie i form av semistrukturerade intervjuer med nio respondenter i varierat åldersspann. Ett abduktivt angreppssätt har tillämpats för att möjliggöra en mer flexibel arbetsprocess vid insamling av empiri
Syftet med studien var att undersöka upplevelsen av sexualitet och sexuell tillfredsställelse i klimakteriet. Studien är en del av forskningsprojektet “Faktorer som påverkar den sexuella tillfredsställelsen: En explorativ och tvärkulturell undersökning av sexuella och estetiska ideal, självmedkänsla och kroppsmedvetenhet” vid Lunds universitet. Insamling av data gjordes genom semi-strukturerade inThe aim of this study was to examine the experience of sexuality and sexual satisfaction during menopause. As a part of the research project “Factors affecting sexual satisfaction: An exploratory and cross-cultural examination of sexual and aesthetic ideals and norms, self-compassion and body awareness” at Lund University we conducted eight semi-structured interviews. The interviewees were between
We study the solvability for a system of pseudodifferential operators. We will assume that the systems is of principal type, i.e., the principal symbol vanishes of first order on the kernel, and that the eigenvalue close to zero has constant multiplicity. We prove that local solvability is to condition (PSI) on the eigenvalues as in the scalar case. This condition rules out any sign changes from -
This paper presents a first prototype of ClimaSynth, a web-based interactive application that allows to creatively transform environmental sounds in response to climate change scenarios. ClimaSynth serves as an instrument for enhancing environmental perception through sonic interaction. The underlying algorithm uses real-time granular synthesis and web technologies to encode climatic effects in so
Synthetic biomaterials used as bone graft extenders (BGE) in spinal fusion surgery can supplement but do not replace autologous bone. This pilot study evaluated a calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite (CaS/HA) material as an antibiotic-eluting BGE and a carrier for bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) in a rabbit posterolateral lumbar (L4–L5) spinal fusion model (PLF). Pre-set CaS/HA beads were loaded wi
By combining ab initio downfolding with cluster dynamical mean-field theory, we study the degree of correlations in monolayer, bilayer, and bulk breathing-mode kagome van der Waals materials Nb3(F, Cl, Br, I)8. Our new material-specific many-body model library shows that in low-temperature bulk structures the Coulomb correlation strength steadily increases from I to Br, Cl, and F, allowing us to i
An increase in large-scale agricultural investment in land has been going on since the global food crisis in 2008. Import-dependent countries have acquired large plots of land to secure food supplies. The investments had disastrous impacts on the local communities living on the land before the investment took place. Many have been expropriated and evicted from their lands, affecting their human ri
Background: The aim of this study was to clarify the possible causal associations between education phenotypes and non-fatal suicide attempts. In particular, we evaluated the roles of academic achievement (school grades), cognitive performance (IQ), and educational attainment (education level). Methods: Based on longitudinal Swedish registry data, we included 2,335,763 individuals (48.7% female) w
This paper explores the processing of sensitive personal data for genealogical purposes by studying how the privacy policies of three direct-to-consumer genetic testing companies relate to the general Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The methodological approach is content analysis. The privacy policies are analysed in relation to the three core principles of 1) adherence to GDPR; 2) transparent
The process to elaborate a legally binding instrument on Business and Human Rights started in 2014. The stated ambition animating UN process is to deliver a broad-spectrum treaty that significantly increases remediation for victims. However the treaty has polarized opinion from the very beginning. To come closer to genuine points of disagreement and possible paths forward, this chapter explains an
Background. To determine whether genetic risk factors for major depression (MD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) interact with a potent stressor – death of spouse, parent, and sibling – in predicting episodes of, respectively, MD and AUD. Methods. MD and AUD registrations were assessed from national Swedish registries. In individuals born in Sweden 1960–1970, we identified 7586, 388 459, and 34 370
