In recent years, Kate Raworth’s new alternative macroeconomic model, “doughnut economics” (DE) has become increasingly popular within policies on different scales around the world. The doughnut-shaped framework addresses the urgent crises of our time by advocating for a balanced development that considers the planet’s well-being while securing our social needs. Since the introduction of the framew
Predicting occupant behaviour is vital to ensure energy performance in the built environment. Several studies reported discrepancies between the predicted and actual occupant behaviour in buildings, including that towards manual solar shading systems. This results in an energy performance gap between predicted and actual energy use in buildings. In this research, the self-reported use of manual
The aim of this study was to examine health care social workers’ and psychologists' perception of counseling (stödsamtal), how jurisdictional work can be seen within counseling and what significance the jurisdictional work has for the health care social worker’s professional identity. The method chosen was semi-structured interviews with four health care social workers and four psychologists,
A fair judicial system assumes that judgments and decisions are made based on quality of evidence rather than extraneous factors. The evidence in criminal cases usually carries emotional content. Previous research shows that lay-people, such as juries, can be affected by emotional content when making legal decisions. However, judges who finalize verdicts have extensive legal education. The purpose
Non-native trees are common in urban environments all over the world. From a conservation viewpoint, it is essential to understand how these trees are affecting urban breeding birds. Non-native trees house fewer and smaller invertebrates than native trees do and are considered a poor food source for insectivorous birds. Still, studies are lacking on exactly how non-native trees affect birds’ feedi

Many songbird species that breed at northern latitudes migrate long distances each autumn, while others brave the cold winter. Long-distance migrants have physiological adaptations that allow them to rapidly gain weight at stopover sites during migration for optimal speed. There is some evidence from closely related species that birds with a longer migration distance deposit fuel faster. However,
With climate change, the frequency in climate extremes such as drought, heavy rainfalls, and extreme temperatures is predicted to increase. These extremes can potentially stress and damage vegetation over large areas, leading to altered carbon cycle, vegetation greenness, albedo, and shifted species composition. This study focuses on two different types of extreme events; frost drought caused by w
Bakgrund: Fysisk aktivitet har beprövad positiv effekt för personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa men är inte välstuderat inom Aktivitetsvetenskap. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva vilka typer av fysisk aktivitet personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa ägnar sig åt, i vilken omfattning de utförs samt beskriva vilka aktivitetsvärde personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa upplever i samband med fysisk aktivitet.Background: Physical activity has positive effects for people with stress related illness, but is not well studied within occupational therapy and occupational science. Aim: The aim was to describe to what extent people with stress related illness engage in physical activity, which types of physical activity they perform and their perceived occupational value when performing physical activity. Met
När vi läser den aktuella kursplanen för musik i grundskolan och gymnasiet och tittar på utbildningsutbudet inom folkhögskola och eftergymnasiala musikutbildningar i Sverige kan vi se ett ökat intresse för musikskapande från utbildningsväsendet. Med utgångspunkt i Bennetts (2012b) resonemang från artikeln You can’t teach songwriting…! där han skriver: “if songwriting can’t be taught, it can certai
DNA sequence variation can have different effects on the amino acid sequence of a protein, depending on what type of alteration is made and the position of it. While missense and nonsense variants can substitute one amino acid for another or lead to a premature stop codon respectively, synonymous variation does not directly alter the amino acid sequence of a protein. Though synonymous variants see
Företag har genomfört stora förändringar efter att den svenska Folkhälsomyndigheten införde rekommendationer om hemarbete till följd av Covid-19 pandemin. Distansarbete har ökat kraftigt i omfattning och prognosen är att även efter pandemin kommer det flexibla arbetssättet kvarstå. Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att undersöka vilka eventuella utmaningar som distansarbete medför för framtiden
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from land use, and increasing carbon storage in soils, is an important climate mitigation strategy. I conducted a literature study based on 174 articles to investigate the potential of temperate forest-, agricultural- and pasture land and urban parks to store carbon in soils; identified measures that could increase their storage potential by increasing the rate of
The building industry is continuously adapting to the changing needs and demands. The rise in emissions, depletion of resources and accumulating waste are some of the important problems that have to be addressed by architects all over the world today. In this context, the thesis addresses these problems through informed building material choices and exploring the potential of circular use of resou
