Att förlora sin partner genom dödsfall ger en ökad risk för ohälsa den närmast följande tiden. Syftet med denna studie var att ur omvårdnadsperspektiv tydliggöra riskfaktorer för ohälsa hos anhöriga till svårt sjuka patienter. Metoden var en litteraturstudie där tio artiklar analyserades. Resultatet visade dels att hur lång förberedelsetiden var, vilket socialt stöd som fanns samt känsla av samman

I den här uppsatsen undersöks meningslängdens betydelse för läsförståelsen hos barn med lässvårigheter. Syftet är att ta reda på om råden om att skriva korta meningar i lättläst skön­litteratur är rimliga eller behöver nyanseras. Med en kvantitativ metod jämförs skön­litterära texter som manipulerats på fyra olika sätt – med långa och korta meningar och med och utan sambandsskapande ord. Materiale

Detta examensarbete är en studie som undersöker hur två av den danska Atlantvallens bunkrar skulle kunna genomgå en transformation och återanvändas. Bunkrarna har stått intakta sedan andra världskriget och ligger belägna längs det populära turistmålet Limfjorden på norra Jylland. Minnet om ockupation och krig har präglat bunkern sedan 1940-talet men att avlägsna bunkrarna från de danska stränderThis thesis investigates how to transform and re-purpose two of the bunkers along the Atlantic Wall in Denmark. The bunkers have been intact since World War II and are located along Limfjorden, which is a tourist destination in northern Jutland, Denmark. The memory of occupation and war has characterized the bunkers since the 1940s, but removing them from the Danish coast is both expensive and c

In A Transnational History of the Australian Animal Movement, Gonzalo Villanueva covers the important events that led to the addition of an entirely new issue to the political agenda, transforming the conditions of nonhuman animals into a matter of public concern. Grounded in transnational history, social movement studies, and the emerging field of critical animal studies, A Transnational History

Boken behandlar det äldsta statliga konstmuseet i Sverige, Kongl. Museum i Stockholms slott, med beaktande av dess tillkomsthistoria, samlingarnas ursprung och uppställning samt överförandet till Nationalmuseum i mitten av 1860-talet. Publikationen bygger på forskning om föremålen och dokumentation i arkiven och ger en helhetsbild som i flera avseenden korrigerar tidigare uppfattningar och ger en

Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork in Uzbekistan, this article looks at the way official state narratives are challenged by silent, unorganized, often unawares, gestures of resistance at the bottom of a society. Footing on a framework suggested by Scott’s definition of infrapolitics (2012), we propose to incorporate informal practices in a definition of informality that is more inclusive, a

Sammanfattningsvis kan Självbestämmandeteorin (SDT) tillämpas av lärare för att stärka elevers motivation och välbefinnande. Däremot är det inte säkert att alla elever därigenom kommer att höja sin inre motivation eller sina studieresultat. Vissa elever är helt ointresserade av vissa ämnen och i avsaknad av motivation krävs mer än att tillämpa SDT. Vidare kan inte enbart ett förändrat klassrumskli

Direct ground cooling systems (DGCS) can provide comfort cooling to buildings without the use of any refrigeration-based cooling methods. DGCS is an emerging technology, commonly used for new office buildings in cold climates. This study aims to evaluate the energy-saving possibilities of a DGCS compared to a conventional chiller system for an existing office building. A typical Swedish office bui

More complex understanding of relationality in care networks around patients with life-limiting illness and their significant others is needed. This is the case not only because care is distributed unequally along gendered lines, but also because of the changing landscape of care in welfare states where families and communities are made more self-responsible. This study examines everyday experienc

This essay argues that an important factor behind the emergence of a rabbinic form of Judaism was a challenge to Jewish identity and self-understanding posed by Jesus-oriented groups who had appropriated essential aspects of Jewish self-understanding. The unease with gentile attachment to Israel’s God and involvement with the Torah, and the reconfiguration of the boundaries of Judaism to exclude J

This paper considers the concept and practice of entrepreneurial leadership in the academe. After a small introduction to the research in the emerging field of entrepreneurial leadership, we note many substantial differences between academic entrepreneurs and the general class of entrepreneurs so as to motivate our focus on the academic community. We then provide a brief narrative on some strands

Electric Road Systems (ERS) is an emerging new technology that aim to electrify land transport by supplying electric vehicles (EV) with power. By providing EV's the possibility to charge while driving i.e. dynamic charging the battery size can be greatly decreased compared to a solution with nighttime and fast charging. The evaluation of the potential of ERS has already been published in a number

Particle physics has an ambitious and broad experimental programme for the coming decades. This programme requires large investments in detector hardware, either to build new facilities and experiments, or to upgrade existing ones. Similarly, it requires commensurate investment in the R&D of software to acquire, manage, process, and analyse the shear amounts of data to be recorded. In planning

This project evaluates the impact of interior insulation on external walls in three Swedish heritage buildings. Field measurements and hygrothermal simulations were conducted to assess available solutions. Measurements of temperature and relative humidity were taken both indoors and outdoors, as well as on the exterior and interior surfaces of the walls. The accuracy of simulation standards for in
