Bakgrund/Problem: I samband med generationsskiftet på arbetsmarknaden uppstår frågan hur arbetsgivarna ur ett rent strategiskt perspektiv kan ta ställning till Generation Y (födda under andra halvan av sjuttiotalet fram till ca år 2000) i arbetslivet. Generation Y verkar nämligen ha en förändrad syn jämfört med äldre generationer när det gäller hur man ser på arbetets roll i livet. Företagen måste

The purpose of the article is to shed light on how experiences of sensory perceptions in the domains of VISION, SMELL, TASTE and TOUCH are recast into text and discourse in the genre of wine reviews. Because of the alleged paucity of sensory vocabularies, in particular in the olfactory domain, it is of particular interest to investigate what resources language has to offer in order to describe tho

The aim of this literature study was to examine the evidence of family therapy and familybased interventions for children and adolescents with depression. Additionally, this study highlights how different research perspectives and outcome measures may affect the recommendations of treatment interventions. Nine articles were reviewed and assessed for their scientific quality. Five of the articles w

Current post-carbon transition trajectories are primarily based on a belief in technical solutions wherein considerations of the citizens’ role in collective mobilisation and transformation are largely overlooked. To this end, the thesis seeks to understand how citizens can become active agents of change within transition efforts and how their political agency can be empowered accordingly. This, b

Macroeconomic crises are common as well as economically, socially and politically costly. Fiscal policy plays an important role in alleviating the costs of the crisis. However, recent experiences suggest that the public finances are often unprepared for a crisis. Deficits and debt levels prior to the crisis are commonly too high, limiting the government’s ability to support the economy through the

Introduction: Gender affirming surgery of primary and/or secondary sex characteristics has been shown to alleviate gender dysphoria. A descriptive snapshot of current treatment preferences is useful to understand the needs of the transgender population seeking health care. This study aimed to describe preferences for gender affirming treatment, and their correlates, among individuals seeking healt

There is currently interest in low strain HPHT diamond due to its expected application as various types of X-ray optical elements at Synchrotrons, where the X-ray intensity is becoming progressively too severe for the existing materials. The diamond crystals need to be synthesised with unprecedented lattice quality. In recent measurements at the ID19 beamline of European Synchrotron Radiation Faci

Bland barn och ungdomar är förekomsten av social ångest 1-2%. Studier visar att obehandlad social ångest på sikt påverkar individens livskvalitet ur många aspekter. Tidiga behandlingsinsatser är därför essentiellt för att förhindra risken för långvariga problem. Vid en Första Linjen verksamhet i Skåne valde man att renodla behandlingsprogrammet Chilled enkom för ungdomar med social ångest. Denna s

Familjeterapi är en vanlig behandlingsform för unga med anorexia nervosa. Att behandla flera familjer samtidigt, genom multifamiljebehandling, är dock relativt nytt i Sverige. Det fanns därför behov av att utvärdera deltagarnas egna upplevelser av själva behandlingen. Examensarbetet bestod av två studier. Studie 1 baserades på viktuppgifter för 72 patienter och självrapporterade data om anorektisFamily therapy is a well-known treatment for adolescents suffering from anorexia nervosa. Treating several families simultaneously through multifamily therapy, is relatively new in Sweden. This study evaluates the treatment model behind multifamily therapy as it’s practiced at Region Skånes Eating disorder Center Children and Adolescents (RSÄ-BU) and at Stockholms Center for eating disorders (SCÄ)

The diversity among Swedish university students is steadily increasing. The students have different backgrounds, experiences, interests, learning styles and abilities. Also, there are more students with disabilities at Swedish universities, especially invisible disabilities. Teachers need to adapt their teaching and curricula, and can no longer wait to do this until they spot a student with divers

In the 1990’s, the legislative power witnessed an increased pace in the work environment, and consequently also an enhanced risk for occupational injuries. Moreover, further specialization had resulted in a lack of knowledge concerning the risks that the workers were exposed to in the workplace. With the intent of increasing the safety for workers in their occupations, violations of the Work Envir

BIM, Building Information Modeling, is an increasingly common way of working. This means that different objects build up an overall 3D-model where you can find lots of information about these objects. An object can be anything from a bridge pillar to an electric pole. The purpose of this report is to, based on the Swedish Transport Administrations’ as a client, investigate the advantages and disad

De svenska grundlagarna innehåller rättigheter som anger ramen för det offentliga maktutövandet. Över tid har rättigheterna gått från att rikta sig främst till lagstiftaren, till att i större och större grad genomsyra rättstillämpningen. Inom den internationella privat- och processrätten kan en domstol ibland inte acceptera ett utländskt avgörande om det strider mot grundläggande värderingar. DettThe Swedish constitution contains rights that set the frames within which the public power acts. Over time, the rights have gone from mainly addressing the legislator to affecting the adjudication in individual cases more and more. In the area of private international law, a court cannot recognise or enforce a foreign judgment if it infringes fundamental values. This might be the case if a charter

På gränsen mellan Helsingborgs och Bjuvs kommun ligger ett område vars förutsättningar för grundvattenuttag bedöms vara dåliga. Av den anledning har en undersökning utförts över en förkastning, tolkad av SGU i just detta område, för att se om denna kan vara vattenförande eller om det kan finnas andra vattenförande strukturer i berget. Förkastningen och det omkringliggande området har undersökts meIn an area on the border between Helsingborg and Bjuv municipality a fault has been mapped by the Swedish Geological Survey (SGU) and since this area have poor prerequisites for groundwater outtake this is of big interest. This is also the reason why this survey have been carried out to try to identify if the fault is water-bearing and to find its position with a better accuracy then could be gath

A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews were conducted at Handelsbanken in southern Sweden to identify and evaluate the bank’s recruitment process, with focus on achieving greater diversity within the workforce. Five women with personnel and varying seniority in the bank participated in the study. A thematic analysis was used and the following five main themes were identified; diversi

This paper investigates whether the German Stock is efficient or not, i.e. whether there is a way to systematically beat the market. Within this framework momentum strategies with formation and holding periods over 3- to 12-month horizons are applied on the CDAX. The results do not show clear signs of market inefficiencies. While momentum strategies were successful in 67% of the cases, the winner
