Denna studie undersökte undersköterskor och sjuksköterskor inom den offentliga sektorn i Sverige (N = 139). Via en digital enkät undersöktes deltagarnas intentioner att stanna eller lämna sin
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) is an EU agency, providing scientific advice and standards surrounding risk assessment in order to maintain food safety in Europe. The aim of this study was to investigate how EFSA communicates uncertainty in conditions of their assessment and if the recommended guidelines by EFSA 2019 is fulfilled. 15 Randomly picked scientific articles produced during th
Bakgrund: På grund av krig, förföljelser och kränkningar ökar flyktingströmmarna i världen. Antalet människor på flykt 2021 var 89,3 miljoner. Miljöförändringar som asylsökande och flyktingar upplever påverkar alla aspekter av deras dagliga liv och uppfattning om sig själva. Begränsade möjligheter till meningsfulla aktiviteter i mottagarlandet har en ytterligare negativ påverkan på hälsa och välbeBackground: Refugee flows worldwide are increasing due to war, persecutions and harassments. In 2021 the number of refugees globally reached 89,3 million. Environment changes influenced asylum seekers and refugees in all aspects of daily living and self-concepts. Limited opportunities to participate in meaningful activities in the host country had a further negative impact on health and well-being
Suicide prevention consists of several different types of strategies ranging from strengthening the individuals’ mental health to spatial planning. Studies have shown that preventing suicide within the scope of spatial planning by restricting the accessibility to dangerous sites is effective and helpful. Two Swedish authorities have been commissioned by the government to develop a new national str
The main topic of this thesis is the storage location assignment problem, which can also be seen as a traveling salesman problem. The objective is to find the shortest path between items to be picked at a medium-sized warehouse. Orders come in batches consisting of items that will be assembled in-house. Therefore, it is essential to pick up all the items contained in the batch before they are drop
In an evermore competitive environment for companies and business, predictive customer behaviour models can give companies a competitive edge over its competitors. Two such important predictive behaviour models are customer churn models and customer lifetime value (CLV) models. As it is more expensive for companies to acquire new customers rather than retaining existing ones, it is important for b
Previous studies of the neural correlates of episodic memory formation have been limited because the design of experiments tended to restrict natural viewing behavior, and thus they overlooked the role of eye movements in memory formation. The goal of the present study is to offer new insights into understanding the neural mechanisms of episodic memory formation in naturalistic viewing at the leve
Syftet med denna avhandling är att utveckla en ny metod för att producera bilder med syntetisk aperturradar (SAR), med utgångspunkt i scenarier med arbiträr rörelse vad gäller radarsensorn. SAR är en väletablerad metod för att skapa 2- eller 3-dimensionella radarbilder, som traditionellt sett antar att radar-sensorns rörelse är linjär och förutsägbar. Därmed är positionerna för varje radardata-punThe purpose of this thesis is to develop a novel approach to producing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images, assuming the scenario of arbitrary motion in regards to the radar sensor. SAR is a well-researched method for creating 2- or 3-dimensional radar images, traditionally assuming the radar sensor's motion to be linear and highly predictable. Thus the locations where each radar data is sam
Tidigare forskning om traumabehandling har framför allt undersökt verksamma behandlingsmetoder kvantitativt. Den här studiens syfte var därför att kvalitativt undersöka vad psykologer upplever som viktigt i en lyckad traumabehandling av personer med posttraumatiskt stressyndrom. Intervjuer genomfördes med tio legitimerade psykologer som har klinisk erfarenhet av att arbeta med traumabehandling. En
Sialic acids are prominent on the cell surfaces of mammalian cells and partake in modulating cellular mechanisms. N-acetyl neuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) is one of the most prominent sialic acids on mammalian cells. Bacterial pathogens can acquire Neu5Ac from the environment and display them on their cell surfaces, in a process known as molecular mimicry, thus evading the immune system. Many pathogens a
In recent years, influencer-founded brands such as Kylie Jenner’s “Kylie Cosmetics” and Huda Kattan’s “Huda Beauty” have been consistently capturing people’s attention. Despite the mainstream media’s coverage of their success, research on the strategic communication of these brands is still lagging behind. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to fill the research gap in this field by exploring
Byggbranschen är en av de mest klimattunga branscherna och står för cirka en femtedel av Sveriges totala utsläpp av växthusgaser. För att möta samtidens klimatkris krävs det att byggbranschens utsläpp minskar. En av de faktorer som orsakar mest utsläpp inom byggbranschen är framställningen och användandet av nyproducerad betong. Trots betongens stora inverkan på klimatet fortsätter byggbranschen aThe study focuses on the organizational work of reuse of concrete elements. Reusing concrete elements in new buildings could be one of the solutions of how the construction sector becomes more environmentally friendly. Throughout this study factors like political decisions, governmental instruments, laws and regulations as well as cooperation between organizations within the construction sector ar
Agriculture in India is characterised by low productivity, and structural change has been slow and unconventional. Nevertheless, at state-level one can identify different patterns for these process. The attempt in this work has been to understand the linkages between farm mechanisation, agricultural productivity and structural change at the state-level during the post-reform period. The aim was to
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a devastating disease and is almost always synonymous with a poor outcome. Chemotherapy is the standard treatment and is administered in either an adjuvant or palliative setting. However, nearly all patients, regardless of treatment intent, eventually develop chemoresistance. Little is known about the events causing chemoresistance, but increased knowledge is essential fo
This thesis is composed within the framework of the supplementary course in psychotherapy concentrating on family therapy (60 credits) arranged by Lund University's affiliate in Västerås, Sweden. The purpose of this thesis has been to explore how the idea to initiate evidence based methods in the workings of the Individual and Family Care Department of the City of Västerås was born. Furthermo
Bakgrund: Problematisk skolfrånvaro har på senare år ökat och kommit att bli ett samhälleligt problem. Barns framtid och utveckling är till stor del präglad av att de klarar av skolan. Ett arbetsterapeutiskt perspektiv som innebär förståelse för hur miljön kan påverka aktivitetsutförandet kan bidra till att förbättra elevers delaktighet i skolan. Syfte: Syftet är att undersöka arbetsterapeuters erBackground: Problematic school absenteeism has increased in recent years and has become a societal problem. Children's future and development is largely determined by their ability to complete school. An occupational therapy perspective that involves an understanding of how the environment can affect the performance of activities can contribute to improving students' participation in schoo
