The aim of this study is to, with depth in the coping theory presented by Lazarus and Folkman, analyse two different self biographies written by people brought up in families with an alcoholic mother. Namely “Vi har inga hemligheter i den här familjen” by Therése Eriksson and “Glöm mig” by Alex Schulman. The focus is to investigate which coping resources the authors used to deal with their life si
This thesis was written in collaboration with an anonymous European automotive company, Company X, which uses online marketing as a part of their business model. In online marketing it is of inrest to estimate conversion rates, that is the quota of a population at an initial state that will go on to perform a certain action. The action could be, but is not limited to, clicking on an advertisement,
Vi befinner oss i en tid där väl utformad design utgör en eftertraktad konkurrensfördel vid reklam- och saluförandet av produkter. Det blir därför allt viktigare för formgivare och företag att kunna skydda sina immaterialrättsliga prestationer för att kunna kapitalisera på dem. Inom ramen för de immaterialrättsliga regelverken finns det möjligheter till skydd för en designprodukts utseende inom upWe are currently at a day and age when well-designed products represents a sought after competitive advantage in the advertising and sales of goods. It is therefore becoming increasingly important for designers and companies to be able to protect their intellectual property rights and capitalize on them. Within the framework of intellectual property rights, it is possible to achieve protection of
Tidigare forskning visar att västerländsk konstmusik efter 1945 är en stilistiskt pluralistisk musikform som tillhandahåller verktyg för att främja elevernas musikaliska förmågor. Studiens syfte är att undersöka tyska och svenska musiklärares föreställningar om västerländsk konstmusik efter 1945 i relation till deras egen musikundervisning. I samband med arbetet genomfördes kvalitativa intervjuer Earlier studies have shown that Western classical music after 1945 is characterised by a pluralistic style which offers a range of tools for nurturing pupil's musical abilities. The purpose of this study is to examine German and Swedish music teacher's ideas about Western classical music after 1945 in relation to their own music classes. Three German music teachers and three Swedish music
With population that exceeds 90 million inhabitants, Egypt is one of the large Arab developing countries where the government policies headed towards constructing new urban communities to absorb the vast increase in population. Although the physical planning of the new urban settlements took into consideration the existence of outdoor recreational services and facilities, the quality and adequacy
Med globalisering och internationalisering har det blivit allt vanligare för företag att skicka chefer eller andra anställda att jobba utomlands. De som skickas kallas för utstationerade. Vissa utstationerade anställda misslyckades med sina uppdrag eftersom de inte kunde anpassa sig till den nya kulturen. Syftet med studien var att undersöka relationen mellan tid i värdlandet, kulturell intelligen
This thesis studies the distribution of accessibility by public transport to retail concentrations and public hospitals in Athens, using spatial autocorrelation analysis based on Local Indicators of Spatial Autocorrelation (LISA) method and Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR). For this reason, the study area was divided in a 300x300 meter square grid of points representing the location point
Den här fallstudien undersöker hur Rädda Barnen arbetar opinionsbildande i sin kampanj för att få hem de svenska barnen med föräldrar som har IS-kopplingar från Syrien. Studien har gjorts i syfte att få förståelse för hur Rädda Barnen använder sig av medier för att bedriva sitt kampanjarbete och sätta sig själva och de frågor de bedriver på agendan. Vi har genomfört en studie där vi analyserat fle
Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa bland barn och unga ökar i Sverige. Skolan är en av de miljöer som barn spenderar mycket tid i och forskning visar att detta kan påverka deras hälsa. Svenska skolor saknar idag modeller för att förstå och tolka barns svårigheter utifrån ett aktivitets- och delaktighetsperspektiv. Ny kompetens behövs i skolan och arbetsterapi skulle kunna vara ett komplement till elevhälsan
Food is a fundamental human need – a physical requirement for survival. At the current historical juncture, the global food system is entangled in a web of neoliberal capitalist exchange relations and suffers from heavy dependence on fossil energy inputs. Today’s agro-industrial complex, which has evolved jointly with fossil capitalism and is organized according to its principles, is firmly entren
Studien syftar till att undersöka hur el- och kontrabaslärare i gymnasieskolan arbetar för att väcka och bibehålla motivation hos sina elever. Jag har valt att göra denna studie då jag sett och upplevt att elevers motivation påverkar undervisningen i hög grad. I studien intervjuas fyra el- och kontrabaslärare om vilka faktorer som de beskriver är betydelsefulla för elevers motivation och hur de arThe study aims to investigate how electric and double bass teachers in Swedish gymnasium work to inspire and maintain student’s motivation. I have chosen to do this study because I have seen and experienced that student’s motivation affects the teaching to a great extent. In the study four electric and double bass teachers are interviewed. The focus of the interviews is to see which factors the te
Wildlife crossing structures are needed to enable animal movements in an all more broken up landscape. The Swedish Transport Administration need to know how to build these. Previous studies have focused on passing frequencies and indices. Few have looked at the behavior of the visiting animals. In this study, I have complemented passage frequencies with vigilance behavior for roe deer and fallow d
The search for doubly charged Higgs bosons (H±±) aims at resolving the mass generation mechanism of neutrinos in the Standard Model. The current search by the ATLAS Same-Sign Dilepton group uses the decay product of H±± to a pair of same-sign hadronic τ-leptons, which is an extension of their previous search using same-sign dielectrons and dimuons. This thesis focuses on the study of one of the ba
This Letter reports on a first measurement of the inclusive W + jets cross section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC, with the ATLAS detector. Cross sections, in both the electron and muon decay modes of the W-boson, are presented as a function of jet multiplicity and of the transverse momentum of the leading and next-to-leading jets in the event. Measureme
This Letter presents a search for new resonances decaying to final states with a vector boson produced in association with a high transverse momentum photon, V gamma, with V = W(-> l nu) or Z(-> l(+)l(-)), where l = mu or mu. The measurements use 20.3fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of root s = 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector. No deviations from the Standard
Background: One of the main causes of mortality and morbidity following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is the development of cerebral vasospasm, a frequent complication arising in the weeks after the initial bleeding. Despite extensive research, to date no effective treatment of vasospasm exists. Prostacyclin is a potent vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. In vitro models have shown
Abstract in UndeterminedRelevant source area of pollen (RSAP) and pollen productivity for 11 key taxa characteristic of the pasture woodland landscape of the Jura Mountains, Switzerland, were estimated using pollen assemblages from moss polsters at 20 sites. To obtain robust pollen productivity estimates (PPEs), we used vegetation survey data at a fine spatial-resolution (1 x 1 m(2)) and randomize
Background Today, dislocated femoral neck fractures are commonly treated with a cemented hip arthroplasty. However, cementing of the femoral component may lead to adverse effects and even death. Uncemented stems may lower these risks and hydroxyapatite (HA) coating may enhance integration, but prosthetic stability and clinical outcome in patients with osteoporotic bone have not been fully explored
