Author: Roxanne Noelle Nilsson Title: Student health in elementary school - Student health team perspectives on the impact of educational interventions for students [translated title] Supervisor: Lars B Ohlsson Assessor: Mats Hilte The aim of this study was to understand the Swedish student health team’s perspective on the effects of educational interventions and in that explore the student healt
Primary schooling was made mandatory in Sweden in 1842. Previous literature on this well-known reform centres on the related political discussions at central level. This thesis examines how local school financing evolved in the 19th century in response to increased engagement from the central government and why it evolved the way it did. A particular focus is on the largely overlooked local level
This master thesis has been conducted by a student in industrial management and engineering at EON Development AB, Gothenburg, Sweden and in association with the Division of Production Management at Lund University. It investigates important issues for EON Development in order to establish a marketing department within the Gothenburg area. A marketing function must deal with customer satisfaction
The practices of doctoral education are intricately entangled with technologies. This methodological paper examines the practical concerns involved in doing the analytic work in a networked learning setting with Actor-Network theory (ANT). It is a story about engaging with ANT as a companion in an ethnographic research project on teaching practices in Sweden during the Covid-19 pandemic. The empir
Despite being such an important factor for individual identity, the Orthodox churches have not been sufficiently studied. In addition, the study of gender in these churches often seems formed by the impression that they do not change. This article therefore explores a seeming static feature, the gendered seating in three Syriac Orthodox parishes in Sweden from the point of view of space and agency
The bromide anation of tr-PtCl4BrH2O− has been studied at 25 °C and the chloride anations of tr-PtCl4BrH2O− and PtBr5H2O− at 50 °C. These reactions proceed via halide assisted mechanisms, compatible with the experimental rate laws determined. The bromide anation of tr-PtBr4CIH2O− studied at 50 °C gives PtBr5Cl2− via a bromide assisted path and PtBr62− via an REOA-path. The observed rate law is detThe bromide anation of tr-PtCl4BrH2O− has been studied at 25 °C and the chloride anations of tr-PtCl4BrH2O− and PtBr5H2O− at 50 °C.

How can an online course be designed to promote better mood and improved lighting and darkness conditions in the home? Based on the Information-Motivation-Behaviour Skills Model, the online course comprises multiple components (light, activity and sleep) and various learning strategies. Factual information is provided about, e.g. light as the most potent external time cue for the internal body clo
Choir singing has been suspended in many countries during the Covid-19 pandemic due to incidental reports of disease transmission (Hamner et al. Citation2020). The mode of transmission has been attributed to exhaled droplets, but with the exception of a study on tuberculosis from 1968, there is presently almost no scientific evidence of increased particle emissions from singing (Loudon and RobertsChoir singing has been suspended in many countriesduring the Covid-19 pandemic due to incidental reportsof disease transmission.

In discussions of Scandinavian democratisation, it is commonplace to argue that long-standing farmer representation in parliament and a lack of feudalism facilitated early democratisation. The present essay questions this interpretation in the Swedish case. It centres on a re-interpretation of farmer politics at the national level from the 1866 two-chamber parliament reform to the alliance betweenIn discussions of Scandinavian democratisation, it is commonplace to argue that long-standing farmer representation in parliament and a lack of feudalism facilitated early democratisation.

This essay will discuss three craniums from the neolithic and bronze age which each has an interpreted hole from a trepanation. The purpose of this text is to study whether these three craniums truly are trephined and if characteristics such as cut marks, linear fractures, signs of scraping or healing are visible. The aim is also to find which diagnostic characteristics have been used in earlier r
This study examines the relationship between civil society engagement and party choice between the Social Democrats and the Sweden Democrats in the 2022 Swedish general election. Drawing on prior research on civil society, political participation and changes in the Swedish party system, the study adopts a mixed-methods design. The quantitative analysis uses data from the 2022 Swedish National SOM
This normative study examines the Swedish governments solidarity security policy, in relation to its commitments in the EU and Nato. Since the end of the cold war, Sweden has shifted its security policy from one of neutrality, to one of solidary participation within said alliances. The study’s aim is to examine the validity of this policy, in relation to the concept of solidarity. In doing so, it
This paper investigates receptive knowledge of English lexical collocations among Swedish high school students. The study tests the claim that L2 (second language) learners of English have a low level of collocational competence and tend to recognise high-frequent collocations more than low-frequent since the former have been encountered more. The target items for this study consisted of 40 colloc
Urbanization has led to a concerning decline in biodiversity within cities, necessitating innovative approaches and greening efforts. This project, named “Wild Growth” is aimed at combating urban biodiversity loss, and increasing pollinator-friendly areas, through the design and development of a flower seed spreader. Inspired by principles of simplicity, accessibility, and sustainability, the see
I analyse the effect of risk aversion on the share of wealth investment on risky tradable financial assets at individual level by exploiting the results of a laboratory experiment on a sample of over 700 Dutch respondents. The estimates of an econometric model show that for different wealth levels, risk aversion has heterogeneous effects on the share of wealth invested in risky tradable financial

As we are facing a future of more frequent and extreme weather events targeting primarily low income countries, research on effective and inclusive environmental reconstruction following these crises is vital. In this study, the gender inclusion of UNEP’s environmental reconstruction assessments is examined by looking at four cases in which the organisation has performed assessments on widely diff
