Bakgrund: Våld mot äldre från vårdpersonal beräknas vara ökande, speciellt i en hemmiljö där vård bedrivs. Att vårdpersonal utsätter äldre för våld inom äldreomsorgen är trots större uppmärksamhet under senare år, fortfarande otillräckligt undersökt. Syfte: Undersöka vårdpersonalens uppfattningar om våld mot äldre inom hemtjänst och hemsjukvård. Metod: En semistrukturerad kvalitativ intervjustud

The thesis describes and analyzes individuals' experiences of reduced working hours with retained salary, as well as how this could potentially enable an improved work-life balance. It also investigates how participants experienced pros and cons with reduced working hours. The topic is relevant due to the ongoing societal debate about whether the current 40-hour workweek in Sweden shoul

This paper investigates the impact of Trump’s opinion polls on U.S. Treasury yields during the 2016, 2020, and 2024 presidential elections. Focusing on both 2-year and 10-year yields, the study examines short- and long-term perspectives and compares the effects across the 2016 and 2024 elections. Using a GARCH-in-Mean model and the “Trump-Head-to-Head Momentum” (THHM) variable, we test three hypot

Small and Medium – sized enterprises (SMEs) have historically underperformed against large enterprises in winning public procurement contracts both by measure of number of contracts and share of total contract value. Thus, both European Union and Swedish regulators have put forward recommendations on best practice to increase the presence of SMEs in public procurement. This study examines the impa

This thesis examines the descriptions, and conceptions of the mother and motherhood, present within the association Social Democratic Women in Sweden during the years 1920-1925. Additionally, the study analyzes how the Social Democratic Women in Sweden argued for women’s access to the public sphere through their imagined motherliness. In the thesis, the mother’s imagined place, mission, qualities

Bakgrund: Tidigare forskning har visat att kreativa aktiviteter som körsång kan ha hälsofrämjande effekt fysiskt, psykiskt och socialt. Det finns en kunskapslucka i arbetsterapeutisk forskning kring upplevelsen av körsång som kreativ metod. Det är relevant att utforska körmedlemmars upplevelser av aktiviteten för att utforska hur den bidrar till välbefinnande. Syfte: Undersöka körsångares upplevelBackground: Prior research has shown that creative activities like choir singing can have physical, psychological and social health benefits. There is a knowledge gap in occupational therapy about the experiences of choir signing as a creative activity. It is relevant to explore experiences of the activity and how it contributes to well-being. Aim: Explore choir singers' experience of choir th

In a highly digitalized journalistic sphere that has become increasingly dependent on sensationalization and simplification to appeal to the masses, conveying the nuances of complex subjects such as gender identity can be a challenge. The following thesis explores how journalistic articles about the Swedish non-binary trans celebrity Lee Christiernsson mirrors the intricate relationship between ra

The integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors in investment decisions and corporate practices has gained momentum, reflecting the global focus on sustainability and ethical practices. This study investigates the relationship between ESG-scores and stock returns from 2019 to 2022 across three industry groups – manufacturing and raw materials, technology and media services,

Bakgrund: Delaktighetsproblem i fritidsaktiviteter hos personer med autism är väldokumenterat. Forskning som systematiskt sammanställer detta problem hos ungdomar och unga vuxna utifrån ett arbetsterapeutiskt perspektiv saknas. Syfte: Kartlägga kritiska faktorer för delaktighet i fritidsaktiviteter hos ungdomar och unga vuxna med autismspektrumtillstånd utifrån ett arbetsterapeutiskt perspektiv. MBackground: Participation challenges in leisure activities among individuals with autism are well-documented. Research that systematically examines the issue among adolescents and young adults from an occupational therapy perspective remains limited. Aim: Map critical factors for leisure activity participation among adolescents and young adults with autism spectrum disorder, from an occupational t

Arbetet undersöker hur olika resurser - mänskliga, konkreta och abstrakta - bidrar till utvecklingen av AI-kapabiliteter inom Sveriges offentliga sektor. Studien använder en kvantitativ och deduktiv metod för att analysera data från enkäter riktade till IT- och AI-experter. Resultaten visar att mänskliga resurser är mest betydelsefulla för att bygga AI-kapabiliteter, följt av konkreta och abstrakt

There is a circularity problem in Scanlon’s account of promises. Some suggest that this problem can be resolved by incorporating aspects of a social practice view on promises into Scanlon’s framework. I argue that Scanlon’s account can be saved from the circularity problem without relying on this social practice view.

There are signs that an increasing number of people are questioning monogamy and its restrictions on the individual. Should we then view polyamory as more desirable? Or does monogamy possess some sort of special value? I argue that while monogamy may have some special value, we have not defined what that would be, and so polyamory could be seen as more desirable.

De allra tyngsta grundämnena i det periodiska systemet är skapade genom att man skjuter in en lätt atom in i en annan, tyngre, atom för att de ska slås ihop och skapa än ännu tyngre atom. Denna processen kallas fusion. Fusion är samma fenomen som driver solen genom sammanslagningen av väte till helium. För att uppnå fusion måste atomerna först övervinna den s.k. Coulombbarriären, den frånstötande This thesis models fusion reactions for the production of superheavy elements using a fusion by diusion model. The work further develops the diusion model in Ref. [1], achieving signicant computational speedup. In the diffusion model, I demonstrate that the use of a Markov chain method in place of a Langevin random walk method decreases computational time signicantly, by at least two orders of mag

Syfte: Denna studie har som mål att undersöka sambandet mellan förändring i kassaflöde och börsvärde och om detta samband påverkas av tidsperioden. Metod: Ekonomisk data samlas in från databasen Börsdata och analyseras med statistiska analysmetoder. Teoretiskt ramverk: Studien bygger på teorier som behandlar informationsinnehållet i tillgångars pris, kassaflödet, samt värdering av företag. E

Supramolekylär kemi är ett ämne där formationen av molekylära sammansättningar och deras interaktioner undersöks, innebärande en kombination av både organisk kemi och oorganisk kemi. Ämnet omfattar bindningen av metallkomplex med organiska ligander där hela metalkomplexet kan ses som en atom medan liganderna är själva bindningarna, vilket resulterar i supramolekylära komplex av olika form och storMetal-Organic Frameworks (MOF) are a group of polymeric porous self-assembly structures consisting of a combination of coordinated metal ions and organic-linker molecules resulting in supramolecules with one-, two- or three-dimensional structures. The porosity of the macromolecule allows smaller molecules to enter and remain coordinated via intermolecular interactions, therefore the potential use

IPO underpricing is a researched phenomenon, with academics trying to understand its causes. This study investigates the potential explanations for this event, focusing on the Swedish market from 2000 to 2023. Using a dataset comprising 539 IPOs, including 253 technology firms, the analysis investigates how firm characteristics, market conditions, and sector affiliation influence first-day returns

The switch from mechanical buttons to touch based buttons on numerical keypads did not consider that some of the discoverability of the input keys vanished, especially for people with visual impairments. The mechanical buttons provided something that a screen cannot: tactile feedback. This project explores and finds a solution to the accessibility gap that touch screens impose. Firstly, research w
