The aim of this study is to examine how students perceive and value their prior merits. We will also study whether there is a discrepancy in how employers and applicants perceive and value their images and representations of applicants prior merits. In addition we will try to suggest that discrepancy may harm the possibility to carry out a successful recruiting; in that effect incongruity may lead
The purpose was to investigate "adult foster childrens" view on their childhood and how it may have been influencing their adulthood.

This study deals with rights for the good care of the elderly in the municipalities of Scania. The study is meant to give deeper knowledge of citizen's charters for care, why such charters have been given and if they can be used to secure the quality of the care of the elderly today and in the future. To put these citizen's charters in a context I have chosen to study how the state after v
We wanted to examine children's views on families and traditions surrounding family formation. Our main questions were; What are children's views on the concept "family" and how does this compare to the different definitions of family? How traditional or modern are children in comparison with historical and present views? and What are the effects of their own experiences, and val
The purpose of this thesis is to through the analysis of interviews with finance professionals in listed companies answer the question on what lies behind capital structure decisions, and to see how well the prevailing theories fit the answers. This article is an explorative and descriptive hypothesis creating study. We have used a qualitative method to analyse practice through theory. We have con
The expression treaty shopping is of American origin and it is closely related to the term forum shopping, a term used in U.S. civil procedure. Forum shopping describes a behaviour by which a party in a court case tries to ''shop'' into a jurisdiction or circuit where he expects a more favourable decision to be given.

Patients sometimes exhibit anxiety reactions and avoidance behavior to specific stimuli.

Introduction: Complex production systems as, for instance, those used in health care, in off shore industry, in nuclear power industry or in aviation suffer now and then from severe system breakdowns. Lessons learnt from these often lead to changes in the "system". A more rational approach would be to identify these "system weaknesses" before accidents happen. A new proactive method, DEB analysis,
Four epidemiologic studies have assessed the association between nut intake and pancreatic cancer risk with contradictory results. The present study aims to investigate the relation between nut intake (including seeds) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estim
Genetic studies promise to provide insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying type 2 diabetes (T2D). Variants associated with T2D are often located in tissue-specific enhancer clusters or super-enhancers. So far, such domains have been defined through clustering of enhancers in linear genome maps rather than in three-dimensional (3D) space. Furthermore, their target genes are often unknown.
