Care for older persons is a universal issue, but around 1900, new groups of wage-earners created a need for an age of retirement, forming a new era of institutional care. These old people’s homes were often charitable trusts, which required them to be seen as respectable to attract funding. Residents therefore faced a two-way contract: being offered dignified housing if they met societal standards

Thesis purpose: The current study examines the association between seven variables: environmental sustainability, perceived functionality, social influence, price value, hedonic motivation, uniqueness, and technology habit with the purchase of second-hand clothing on peer-to-peer platforms on a regular basis. Theoretical perspective: Venkatesh, Thong and Xu’s (2012) Extended Unified Theory of Acc

As globalization and development seem to have “removed geographical boundaries between countries”, the resulting patterns of human mobility (Gomory, 2002; Leach, Scoones & Stirling, 2010) have attracted the discursive study on the topic of migration. There are migration aspects that categorize migrants as regular, irregular, voluntary or involuntary. Such categorizations include the perspectiv

In light of the escalating global polycrisis—a convergence of environmental, social, and mental health crises—this paper explores the potential of mindfulness-based approaches for fostering human and planetary wellbeing and sustainability. We specifically investigate the linkages between Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and sustainability, and how they can be strengthened to support trans

This thesis provides knowledge of occupational engagement in day centres for people with psychiatric disabilities and contributes to measurement development in the area of occupational engagement. The first study focused on the characteristics of the occupations carried out at the day centre by exploring occupational engagement using time-use diaries with a person-environment-occupation perspectiv

A review of literature related to fire evacuation in underground transportation systems, e.g., tunnels and subway stations, was carried out with the objectives (1) to identify a theoretical framework that can help understand of human behaviour in the event of a fire in underground transportation systems, (2) to use the theoretical framework to analyse and to identify problems related to fire evacu

In current debate a number of terms are used to describe the positions of different groups and individuals, eg. deviation, marginalisation, segregation, integration, inclusion and exclusion. The terminology aids us in giving everyday life a manageable structure and meaning, but it also work as a tool of stigma and to keep large groups outside society, not least in research agendas. By using the te

Religion and intersectionality Categories frequently discussed in terms of intersectionality are gender, class, race, ethnicity and sexual orientation. This paper argues that religion often is a relevant dimension in intersectional analyses. Religion may not be inevitable as the other dimensions, but in large parts of the world it is nevertheless an unavoidable social element and even in the secu

Sub-Sahara Africa is considered to be most vulnerable to climate variability including flooding. The frequency and severity of floods in Northern Ghana over the last decade has increased considerably. Through qualitative modelling the paper explores the impact of floods on natural resource dependent communities in Northern Ghana. Simplified causal loop diagrams are used to conceptualise flood-indu

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om de personliga följderna av de tidiga konsekvenserna av kronisk ledgångsreumatism, hur det påverkar personernas arbetsliv och hur de hanterar detta. I denna kvalitativa studie har tematiserade intervjuer använts. Tjugotre personer, vilka nyligen diagnostiserats med kronisk ledgångsreumatism, var intervjuade två gånger med två års mellanrum. StudieThis dissertation discusses the personal implications of the early consequences of rheumatoid arthritis, how they effect the person's working life and how they are dealt with. In this qualitative study thematized interviews are used. Twenty-three persons, recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, were interviewed twice, two years apart. The study is influenced by an interactionist perspective

Objective This study provides the summary of current knowledge about migrant work in agriculture available from journal articles, books, reports and other relevant academic publications, focusing on political, economic, legal, social and medical aspects of migrant work in agriculture. Methods A systematic search was carried out on the LibHub and Google Scholar databases in order to compile the e

Recent three-dimensional, high-resolution simulations of neutron star coalescences are analysed to assess whether short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) could originate from such encounters. The two most popular modes of energy extraction - namely the annihilation of and magnetohydrodynamic processes - are explored in order to investigate their viability in launching GRBs. We find that annihilation can pro

In the first century CE, synagogues existed not only in the land of Israel but in all parts of the Roman Empire where Jews lived. Although incorporating a number of activities, the most characteristic features of this institution were the public reading and teaching of torah, making the synagogue an unparalleled institution in the ancient world. But how, when, where, and why did this unique instit

This article gives an overview of the ethical issues in nutrigenomics; research and personalized nutrition. The principles of research ethics, i.e., autonomy, beneficence, nonmalfeasance, and justice, are challenged by rapidly growing cross-border research activities utilizing existing and upcoming biobanks for studies of the interaction of genes with diet on risk of common diseases. We highlight

This paper explores a global trend where universities are collaborating with local government, industry and civic organisations to advance the sustainable transformation of a specific town, city or region. With empirical evidence, we argue that this function of ‘cocreation for sustainability’ could be interpreted as the seeds of an emerging, new mission for the university. We demonstrate that this

The aim of this study was to examine what kind of support the relatives to persons with dementia experience they need. The study also aimed to examine what factors affect the relatives’ decision to receive support. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six relatives to persons with dementia. The empirical data collected from the interviews were analyzed through the concept of role theory
