The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between alexithymia, exhaustion syndrome and well-being. The examination was designed as a crosssectional study in which the measures TAS-20, KEDS and BBQ was administered by a survey online. A total of 557 participants were recruited. The results showed that higher degree of alexithymia was connected to more severe symptoms of exhaustion s
Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka begreppet "brottslighetens art" i 30 kap. 4 § BrB. Brottslighetens art utgör ett skäl för att välja fängelse vid påföljdsvalet och är främst av vikt för att avgöra om fängelse ska väljas vid lägre straffvärden. Uppsatsen tillämpar en rättsdogmatisk metod för att undersöka den rättsliga innebörden av brottslighetens art och varför brottslighetens art inf
Förevarande arbete har som målsättning att utreda huruvida en förändring i dödsstraffsdebatten skedde under 1800-talet och 1900-talets första decennier intill dess avskaffande 1921. För att på ett bra sätt kunna företa en sådan granskning inleds uppsatsen med ett avsnitt som kortfattat beskriver den svenska historien för att därefter följas av ett avsnitt enbart rörande dödsstraffsdebatten och avThe goal of the following essay is to investigate any changes in the debate regarding the Swedish death penalty which took place during the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century until the death penalty was abolished in 1921. To be able to undertake such an investigation it’s my personal belief that one first must know the basics of Swedish history. Therefore the essay starts with a
The purpose of this article is to examine how social workers may experience fear in their profession, how they and their organizations handle the fear and how the fear may affect their practice. To obtain the purpose, in-depth interviews were carried out with seven social workers from the southeastern part of Sweden. The experiences of fear were many and are summarized in four categories. Fear of
The main focus of this thesis has been to examine and compare how the size and number of internal power transformers affects the technical performance (robustness, power quality and efficiency) of a utility-scale PV plant. The technical performance was examined in a simulation environment (MATLAB Simulink), where a PV plant with a fixed number of PV arrays and converters, corresponding to a rated
This thesis discusses the Swedish drug policy and its principle of prohibition. In the world of today there is an ongoing discussion about prohibition and the concept of harm reduction. This thesis is an analysis of Swedish drug policy and an investigation as to whether the prohibition concept is in a state of decline. It tries to answer the question; is the Swedish drug policy moving away from it
The aim with this paper is to investigate how the Social Democratic Party (SAP) deals with the question of economic migrants, or more specifically how the problem is represented by the Social Democratic Party, and how this representation has developed over time. The SAP's theory became recently contested by a competing theory that was caused by the predicted future demographic development in S
The Single Molecule Spectroscopy Group at the department of Chemical Physics in the Chemical Centre of Lund University conducts research involving spectroscopy on single molecules of organic dyes. Fluorescence microscopy using a wide-field scheme has been used and such a scheme has many advantages such as full image capture at once when using a high sensitivity CCD or CMOS camera. Using different
The purpose of this Master’s Thesis is to create a model of a converting line factory. The model will be used to investigate factory performance when altering the order structure as well as other what-if scenarios. The model should also be easily adaptable so that it can be used to model other factories as well without the need to rebuild it from scratch. The main results of this study show that
Daphne Arbouz, Spaces of in-between, ‘hybridity’ self-identification and agency of change in personal narratives of non-belonging, Master’s thesis 30p. Lund University, 2011. Narratives of non-belonging and identity formations surrounding the concept of ‘hybridity’ in autobiographic material are discussed and interpreted. Conflicting views existing between ethnocentrically and multi-pluralistica
Samhällets behov av förnyelsebara energikällor har ökat; i april 2009 antogs Europaparlamentets och rådets direktiv 2009/28/EG om främjande av användningen av energi från förnybara energikällor och om ändring och ett senare upphävande av direktiven 2001/77/EG samt 2003/30/EG. För Sveriges del innebar antagandet att Sverige fick som nationellt övergripande mål att andelen energi från förnybara enerSociety’s need of renewable sources of energy has increased; in April 2009 the European Parliament and Council adopted the directive 2009/28/EG on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources and amending and subsequently repealing Directives 2001/77/EC and 2003/30/EC. For Sweden this meant the adoption of a new general objective in which the national goal is to have 49 percent of the
Background: Real-world data on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) are scarce and few studies have analysed the generic HRQoL. Objectives: To assess HRQoL using the generic EQ-5D instrument and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) instrument in PPP compared to plaque psoriasis. Methods: Cross-sectional data from PsoReg, the Swedish National Registry for Sys
The Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE) is a proposed space mission that enables the spectral characterization of the thermal emission of exoplanets in the solar neighborhood. The mission is designed to search for global atmospheric biosignatures on dozens of temperate terrestrial exoplanets and it will naturally investigate the diversity of other worlds. Here, we review the status of the m
In order to provide Internet access to rural areas and places without a reliable economic electricity grid, self-sustainable drone-based cellular networks have recently been presented. However, the difficulties of power consumption and mission planning lead to the challenge of optimal sizing of the power supply for future cellular telecommunication networks. In order to deal with this challenge, t
This paper is based on a study where four go-along interviews with a total of sixteen participants were conducted in three Swedish cities. The purpose of this study was to find out how different aspects and qualities of the built environment affected different persons in terms of experiences of inclusion and exclusion and strategies used to deal with obstacles in the environment. The study highlig
