The background to this master´s thesis is a decision by the regional council in Scania, Region Skåne, to preserve all medical records forever. Through the examination of documents and interviews with people associated with the regional archives, and by using Scandinavian institutional theory and time theory, this study looks into how the decision by the regional council is understood and implement
Nya system skapar svårigheter då man inte kan använda redan etablerade metaforer, designer eller sätt att beskriva och prata om systemet. Detta arbetet ämnar att underlätta arbetet med sådana system genom att erbjuda designprinciper och metodiker för att jobba med dem och undersöka vilka svårigheter man behöver vara medveten om. För att forma och testa nya designprinciper och metodiker så genomfö
Abstract in French Beaucoup d’hommes et de femmes aymara affirment que le savoir humain, transmis par la langue, n’est qu’un pur ‘siwsawi’, i.e. des paroles, des opinions, des points de vue, des jugements d’individus particuliers. Ainsi, il s’agit d’un savoir particulier ; c’est une connaissance concernant l’opinion de certaines personnes, rien de plus. Ceci est, de manière significative, différenMany Aymara men and women claim that human knowledge as transmitted through language is pure ‘siwsawi’, i.e. talk, opinions, views and judgments of particular individuals. As such it is knowledge of a particular kind; it is knowledge concerning the opinions of other humans, nothing else. It is thereby significantly different from the non-linguistic, experiential knowledge that is lived-through and
Postgraduate education has been recognised as a key to bring about societal change. While further capacity building is imperative in this regard in East Africa (Wao et al., 2022), we will in this study focus on how supervisors function as important role models to their students (Brodin et al., 2020). We assume that supervisors’ own approaches to societal change affect their supervisor relationship
The reliability of energy supply is crucial for the well-being of individuals and the prosperityof countries. At the same time, energy production is closely connected to CO2 emissions,which is believed to have an important impact on human-induced global warming. In light ofresultant, partly counteracting challenges, energy efficiency has gained increasing attention as ameans of ensuring energy sup

In Sweden, municipalities organize a large share of public services but the conditions for providing these services differ considerably due to differences in size and wealth. In the wake of financial stress and New Public Management reforms the Swedish local governments seeks new ways to make both ends meet and still manage the services to be in line with the present (not the past) demands of the
Popular Abstract in Swedish I slutet av 1800-talet gjordes upptäckten att atomer bara kan ta upp eller sända ut ljus med vissa våglängder. Denna egenskap beror på att elektronerna endast kan befinna sig i ett av flera diskreta energitillstånd. Man säger att elektronerna är kvantiserade. Kvantiseringen är en effekt av att elektronerna i en atom tvingas hålla sig inom en mycket liten volym. Ju mindrIn this thesis, spectroscopic studies of quantum wells (QWs), quantum wires (QWRs) and quantum dots (QDs) in III-V semiconductors are presented. The electronic structure of these low-dimensional structures have been studied by absorption, photocurrent, electroreflectance, photoluminescence (PL), and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy. The band alignment of GaAs pseudomorphically grow
Popular Abstract in Swedish En magnetkamera kan med hjälp av diffusionsviktad bildtagning användas för att avbilda hjärnans nervsystem. Denna teknik kan utnyttjas för studier av hur hjärnans delar är sammankopplade, men även för att indirekt mäta egenskaper hos hjärnans mikrostruktur. Detta avhandlingsarbete vidareutvecklar de biofysikaliska modeller och mätmetoder som används för denna indirekta Diffusion MRI is widely used to study brain structure in vivo. While this technique is often applied to investigations of brain connectivity, it can also be used to infer specific information about the tissue microstructure; for example, to estimate the axon diameter. In the present work, the role of tissue microstructure and water exchange in biophysical models employed in diffusion MRI was inves
This collection offers a snapshot of how rights are debated and employed in public discourse to reshape legal and political relations at the beginning of the twenty-first century. They explore how rights are used to challenge the state of affairs by individuals and groups who seek justice, and the strategies devised to defy the rights established by those who wish to recast the social and politica
Popular Abstract in Swedish Aktivitet och förmågan att kunna utföra olika dagliga sysslor är central för människan och har stor betydelse för upplevelse av hälsa. I samband med sjukdom eller skada kan förmågan till aktivitet förändras, och komplexiteten i de dagliga sysslorna blir tydlig. Systemisk skleros (sklerodermi) är en ovanlig bindvävsjukdom, som karakteriseras av förändring av immunförsvarSystemic sclerosis (scleroderma) is a connective tissue disease which, in various ways, influences an individual’s ability to participate in everyday occupations. The general objective of this work was to elucidate the consequences of scleroderma with respect to hand function, everyday occupations and wellbeing, in order to provide a knowledge base suitable for occupational therapy interventions.
In an organization where the safety level is high and incidents and serious accidents are very rare, a steady erosion of safety awareness and protective measures can occur, especially when productive demands rise. Thus, it is important to continuously identify and monitor aspects in the organization that can affect work performance and safety. In an ongoing joint research project between the LFV G
A reduction of the negative environmental impact caused by urban traffic will to a considerable extent depend on behavioural change. Assuming that attitudes partly guide behaviour, the general aim of the thesis was to increase the understanding of the underlying attitudes of daily travel behaviour and how attitudes related to pro-environmental choice of transport can be promoted. Two questionnaire
By means of a myograph, postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors were characterized in human superficial epigastric arteries and veins obtained from health subjects. The rank order of potency of subtype selective agonists could not be used for receptor characterization in these vessels, whereas antagonists gave distinct results. It was found that the arteries were endowed mainly by alph1-adrenoceptors b

Popular Abstract in Swedish Länder som strävar efter att kvalificera sig för medlemskap i Europeiska unionen måste genomföra omfattande reformer under kort tid. Som en effekt av anpassningsprocessen till unionens regelverk och politiska, ekonomiska och administrativa kriterier omstruktureras statsapparaten. Detta gäller inte minst i de kandidatländer som samtidigt genomgår radikala transformationsIt is generally recognized that the EU accession process has profound effects on state transformation in the postcommunist applicant countries. A key problem of postcommunism has been a weak ability to implement public policy. This study explores how efforts to fulfill EU conditionality may influence implementing capacity. Firstly, it advances a theoretical framework for this purpose, focusing on
