The aim of this thesis was to examine the effect of sleep on emotional memories. The first two studies examined the role of sleep in the generalization of fear learning and the third study examined how sleep affected the forgetting of unwanted emotional memories.In study 1, participants first underwent fear conditioning with a small and a large circle as the CS+ and the CS-. Next, after either a n

Reaction of Ru3(CO)12 with tris(2-thienyl)phosphine (PTh3) in CH2Cl2 at room temperature or in THF in the presence of a catalytic amount of Na[Ph2CO] furnishes the carbonyl substitution products Ru3(CO)11(PTh3) (1), Ru3(CO)10(PTh3)2 (2), and Ru3(CO)9(PTh3)3 (3). Heating 1 in toluene affords the cyclometalated cluster Ru3(CO)9{μ-Th2P(C4H2S)}(μ-H) (4) resulting from carbonyl loss and carbon-hydrogen

En större mängd kvartsavslag och brända ben, upptäckta vid rekognosering (Norrbottens Museum) av hyggesberedda ytor norr om byn Sammakko, c. 40 km SO Gällivare, har tolkats att indikera ett kortvarigt använt boplatsområde. Platsen, liggande c. 100 meter norr Linaälven och i kanten av en nästan igenväxt göl, genomgick arkeologisk förundersökning sommaren 2019. Insamlat material av brända ben och

Popular AbstractSyftet med avhandlingen är att undersöka på vilket sätt teater med ungdomar, enligt ungdomarnas egna erfarenheter och utsagor om det, utgör en kollektiv bildningsprocess. I avhandlingens syfte ingår att analysera hur en teaterföreställning växer fram och att skapa förståelse för vad som sker mellan olika aktörer, främst mellan ungdomar och ledare.Forskningsfenomenet, unga människorThe objective of this research project is to investigate in what way young people's theatre playing, according to their own experiences, constitute a collective educational process. Also, the project aims at understanding the interaction between the different actors, and particularly between the young amateurs and their leaders. Young people's acting in this research project is understood from a p

For environmental and human health reasons, the regulations on the emissions from combustion devices are getting more and more strict. In particular, it is important to abate the emission of pollutants deriving from combustion in gas turbines. A solution is the use of swirl stabilized, lean premixed combustion. Besides the beneficial effects, there are still some issues related to instabilities an

This thesis addresses the interactions and relationships between natural aquatic bacterial communities, environmental parameters, anthropogenic chemicals and the denitrification pathway in the habitat of agricultural constructed wetlands. The main aim was to gain fundamental knowledge of the drivers behind the processes of the denitrification (i.e. nitrogen removal) in constructed wetlands, hence,

The Siemens gas turbine SGT-800 is the largest industrial gas turbine produced by Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery (SIT) offering a dry low emission (DLE) capability below 15 ppm NOx. It has a very high reliability using an annular combustor system with passive damping and 30 DLE burners. To obtain a greater understanding of the mixing process and the flame dynamics and in order to further reduce

The timing of the ice margin retreat of the Late Glacial Patagonian Ice Sheet (PIS) in southern Patagonia has been the object of discussion for many years. In order to resolve questions about the complex response of the PIS to past climate change, any geological interpretation and data modelling need evaluation against an absolute chronology. The aim of this project is to investigate the applicabi

Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda på vilka grunder passivitet kan leda till avtalsbindning eller förlust av rättigheter inom avtalsförhållanden enligt gällande svensk rätt. Analysen fokuserar både på skrivna regler om passivitet och oskrivna normer som framgår av rättspraxis och doktrin. Passivitet i egenskap av rättshandling, rättsfaktum och avtalstolkningsdatum utreds med stöd av relevanta rättskälThe aim of this thesis is to investigate the grounds on which passivity causes contractual effect in the form of binding agreement or loss of contractual rights, according to Swedish law. The analysis pertains to passivity norms as they are found in the Contracts Act, the Limitations Act and the Commercial Agents Act as well as in the unwritten passivity norms developed in case law. The investigat

I Sverige finns inget direkt förbud mot att bränna religiösa skrifter, vilket det däremot finns i Finland. Att bränna religiösa skrifter är en form av hädelse, och det är en sådan typ av lagstiftning som Finland har. Att häda innebär att kränka Gud eller ett annat religiöst föremål. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hädelselagstiftningens historia i Sverige och Fin-land. FrågeställningarnaIn Sweden, there is no direct prohibition against burning religious scriptures, which however exists in Finland. Burning religious scriptures is a form av blasphemy, and it is this type of legislation Finland has. Blasphemy means insulting God or another religious object. The purpose of this essay is to examine the history of blasphemy legislation in Sweden and Finland. The research questions are

Det finns många fördomar och negativa attityder om övervikt i allmänhet och i synnerhet om övervikt i förhållande till arbetsprestation, vilket leder till att överviktiga arbetstagare missgynnas på arbetsmarknaden. Särskilt överviktiga kvinnor missgynnas på ett sätt som inte smala kvinnor eller överviktiga män gör. Det är ett exempel på intersektionell diskriminering, när sammanvävningen av identiThere are many prejudices and negative attitudes about overweight people in general and about overweight people in relation to work performance in particular, which has led to overweight workers being disadvantaged in the labor market. Especially overweight women are disadvantaged in ways that thin women and overweight men are not. This is an example of intersectional discrimination, when the inte

Det svenska skattesystemet skiljer mellan olika inkomstslag som beskattas olika. Tanken när systemet infördes var att det skulle kompensera för t.ex. inflationen och att det faktiskt beskattade värdet därigenom skulle bli detsamma. Så blev inte fallet och det är idag mycket lukrativare att föra ut vinst ur bolag genom utdelning än lön. Eftersom skatterättsliga bestämmelser anknyter till civilrätThe Swedish tax system distinguishes between different types of income and taxes them differently. The idea when the system was introduced was that it would compensate for e.g. inflation so that the actual taxation would be the same. However, it didn’t work out and today it is much more lucrative to bring out profits from companies through dividends than wages. Because tax law provisions are link

The financial crisis in the EU has been and still is a very researched topic. Because it affected negatively the assets of many individuals, the demand for academic text explaining the crisis is high. This is why, today there are countless books and articles dealing with the causes of the crisis and offering solutions how to overcome it. In this particular field, economics and law are very interco
