There are 3 factors that have a large impact on the motivation to help a victim. 1.) A higher willingness to help an identified, than a non-identified victim. 2.) A preference for saving a large percentage of a group at risk in comparison to only considering the total number of saved victims. 3.) A victim closer to the helpers in-group elicits a higher motivation to help. In previous studies only
This presentation focuses the emotional dilemmas of social workers who recruit and assess foster parents, in a context increasingly defined by market dynamics. Following privatization paralleled with increasing need for childcare, private and public actors today compete to contract potential foster parents in Sweden. For this paper, 43 interviews (with social workers and managers), 21 observation This presentation focuses the emotional dilemmas of social workers who recruit and assess foster parents, in a context increasingly defined by market dynamics.

Forest ecosystems, covering over a third of land on the Earth, play a significant role in the global hydrological cycle, and influence soil erosion and climate change. However, the distribution, movements, quality of water, and hydrological processes in forested ecosystems are not well understood yet.

Open-source software (OSS) is increasingly used by software applications. It allows for code reuse, but also comes with the problem of potentially being affected by the vulnerabilities that are found in the OSS libraries. With large numbers of OSS components and a large number of published vulnerabilities, it becomes challenging to identify and analyze which OSS components need to be patched and uOpen-Source Software (OSS) is increasingly used by software applications.

Factors contributing to valuable development assistance are often perceived as a "black box," due to heterogeneity of development aid motives. This research brings out that too often, the value of aid is assessed from the perspectives of the donors rather than from its recipients. Therefore, this thesis takes a focus to study the recipient's perspectives for valuable development assi
Background: In today’s dynamic market environment, change and entrepreneurship are considered important for organizations to keep gaining a competitive advantage. Previous literature on change management primarily focuses on the importance of top management and employees during change, while underexposing the potential key role of middle managers in driving and implementing change. Furthermore, th
The purpose of this study is to shed light on what motives social work students have in their choice of career, more specifically what their perceptions are regarding social services and how this guides them in their choice of career. The key research question is: how can we understand social work students’ motives in their choice of profession and career paths? The analysis is guided by the two c
Popular ScienceThe growing need for green processes in industry makes scientists design and develop processes that are more energy efficient than current processes. Naturally, some reactions require a high energy and long time to occur. This will cause high energy consumption and, typically, even more waste production. Therefore, many efforts have been done to design materials that can help to chaThe research work that I describe in my thesis deals with three different heterogenisation approaches for synthesising a heterogeneous transition metal catalyst used for direct C-H activation reactions. The three heterogenisation approaches considered in my research are: (1) heterogenisation of a molecular catalyst on a polymer support using covalent bonds, (2) heterogenisation of a catalyst on a
This thesis is based on nine papers, all concerned with parameter estimation. The thesis aims at solving problems related to real-world applications such as spectroscopy, DNA sequencing, and audio processing, using sparse modeling heuristics.

For a collection to be considered as such, and not appear only as a clutter or jumble of things, it has to be based on some kind of selection and systematisation. The research question of this article is how and why collectors structure their collections, organise, and arrange them. The research material is answers to the directive “Collecting things”, presented by the Mass Observation Archive in
Development is often looked upon in economical terms and often research tries to investigate how one country can produce or sell more in order to increase its GDP. This thesis does not exclude these considerations but focuses on health as an important aspect of development. I investigate why South Africans (SA) would place their lives at risk with full knowledge of AIDS by not using freely availab
My identity in the eyes of myself and others [translated title]. The purpose of this study was to examine how teenage girls experience their identities and how it is constructed and influenced by external factors. It was also an attempt to illustrate how mass media and social media like Facebook and blogs can be elements in the construction of identities. Berger and Luckmann‟s social construction
SSAB Tunnplåt AB manufactures high strength steel to e.g. beams to trailers, containers, trucks and cars. In high strength steel designs the ratio width to thickness is also high and therefore the risk for local buckling is high. When buckling occurs the stress will re-distribute and large deformation will occur. It is therefore important to take buckling into consideration when dimensioning high
MI, motivational interviewing, is a counseling method for increasing a person's motivation for behavior change with a large prevalence in social work. MI emphasizes building trusting social worker-client relationships and is presented as concrete and simple to follow. MI's benefit is limited by actual opportunities for change through poverty, the labor market and health.

As observed in earlier studies, there is evidently a performance gap between the predicted annual energy use from building performance simulations basedon traditional deterministic methods compared to the monitored annual energy use of a building. The hypothesis is that using a probabilistic method makes it possible to consider the uncertainties in the input data and quantify the overall uncertainAs observed in earlier studies, there is evidently a performance gap between the predicted annual energy use from building performance simulations based on traditional deterministic methods compared to the monitored annual energy use of a building.
