Den framstående juristen Daniel Paul Schreber (1842-1911) drabbades av två omfattande nervsammanbrott i sekelskiftets Tyskland. I sin berömda Denkwürdigkeiten eines Nervenkranken (1903) beskriver Schreber detaljerat sina upplevelser och uppenbarelser efter det andra av dessa sammanbrott, under nio år vid tre olika psykiatriska anstalter. Schrebers öde blev med Sigmund Freuds uppmärksammade fallstuFemale Nerves - Judge Schreber's Unmanning in the Fin-de-Siècle Crisis of Masculinity The prominent jurist Daniel Paul Schreber (1842-1911) suffered two major nervous breakdowns in fin-de-siècle Germany. In his famous Denkwürdigkeiten eines Nervenkranken (1903), Schreber details his experiences and revelations after the second of these breakdowns, during nine years at three different psychiat

This study examines how Aftonbladet, one of Sweden’s most widely read tabloid newspapers, constructs and portrays youth gang crime in Stockholm’s Järva area. The study explores the dominant discourses shaping public perception and policy responses through a qualitative text analysis of 24 articles published between 2019 and 2023. Additionally, the role of social media in reinforcing these narrativ

As globalization increasingly shapes modern workplaces, multicultural teams have become a standard feature. While such teams bring diverse perspectives and enhance problem-solving capabilities, they also face persistent challenges in communication, trust, and collaboration. Leadership plays a decisive role in determining whether diversity fosters synergy or results in fragmentation. This study exa

The Swedish government's new interest in existential health's impact on the population, alongside the uncertain professional role of the school social worker (SSW), motivates research on their discretion and potential within the subject of existential health. How Swedish schools contribute to students' existential health is under investigation and there are a couple of initiatives in d

The importance of sustainable and effective energy usage is rapidly growing. SWEP International AB leads the manufacturing of brazed plate heat exchangers that offer effective heating and cooling applications used in various systems and industries. Stud bolts are manually welded onto the heat exchanger surface in their manufacturing process. A project to fully automate this process using an indust

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur personlighet och frågetyp påverkar vittnens noggrannhet i minnesförmågan. Studien syftar till att bidra till psykologisk forskning om vittnesminnen, med tanke på de allvarliga konsekvenser som minnesfel kan ha. Data samlades in genom två digitala enkäter som administrerades till vuxna deltagare. Enkäterna bestod av tre delar: ett personlighetstest, en vThe aim of this study is to investigate how personality and question type influence memory recall accuracy of witnesses. The study seeks to contribute to psychological research on eyewitness memory due to the substantial consequences it has, despite proving fallible. Data collection was done through two digital surveys given to adults. The surveys contained three segments—a personality assessment,

This study aimed to explore how social workers reason about the child’s best interests in investigations concerning visitation rights when there is a risk of domestic violence. Using evaluative argumentation analysis, we examined six child welfare investigations to identify the key factors that influence decision-making. Our findings indicate that several considerations are crucial in the assessme

Accumulating research shows that maternal mental health during pregnancy is linked to early neurodevelopmental changes in the offspring. Yet, there is a gap in examining how multiple prenatal risk and resilience factors are associated with early brain development. Therefore, this study explored multiple maternal and paternal psychosocial factors during pregnancy, and their link to neonatal brain s

In this thesis, I present the full design process of developing a cargo bike concept aimed at improving the work environment for park and city maintenance workers, using Velove’s cargo bike as the baseplate. I worked in close collaboration with Lunds Kommun and their park maintenance workers to get first-hand knowledge about how the current products are used and how my project could fit into their

The Swedish system of helping with addiction-related problems is based upon municipalities' and regional hospitals' lawful responsibilities towards its citizens and patients. This thesis looks at five of the southernmost regions of Skånes municipalities' webpages, that serve to inform and attract people who have issues with substance abuse and the side effects this has on their close o

Klimatförändringar är antagligen en av de största utmaningarna i modern tid, där förhöjda halter av växthusgaser i atmosfären har förödande konsekvenser på jordens livsuppehållande system. Koldioxid är ansedd som den mest utsläppta växthusgasen, vilket har lett till ett ökat intresse för koldioxidinfångning. Ett sätt för att minska de förhöjda halterna av koldioxid i atmosfären är genom koldioxidiWith climate change being one of the greatest challenges of our time, interest in carbon dioxide removal and mitigation has increased, as a way of minimizing emissions. As a result, carbon capture has become a key focus in the industry. One of the most common chemical absorption techniques is carbon capture using hot potassium carbonate (HPC). This process operates at an elevated absorber pressure

Ringön är ett industriområde i Göteborg där traditionella verksamheter som skeppsbyggare & bilmekaniker samexisterar med konstnärer, musiker, kreativa byråer & bryggerier. Området präglas av återbruk, ”Do-it-yourself”- kultur & en livlig undergroundscen med graffiti, rave, svartklubbar & alternativa konserter. Inga bostäder planeras, då målet är att bevara områdets karaktär genom o

The segmentation and separation of objects in 3D medical imaging, particularly in Computed Tomography (CT), are essential for accurate diagnostics and preoperative planning. This master's thesis presents a tool for the interactive and automatic separation of segmented bones in CT scans, using the Random Walker algorithm and neural networks. The tool was developed to address challenges such as

With increasing environmental awareness, building materials and their impact on the environment are increasingly coming into focus. This study presents a framework for comparing Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) through A1 - A5 stages from the perspective of Global Warming Potential (GWP) to assess the climate change potential of three facade systems of different building types (villas, medium-sized bui

En av de sjukdomar som påverkar flest människor årligen är malaria. Malaria sprids av myggor som bär på parasiten och när de biter en människa överförs parasiten till människan. Vanliga symptom vid en malariainfektion är lätt feber, frossa och huvudvärk. Dessa symptom kan bli allvarligare om personen är gravid, ett barn mindre än fem år gammalt, eller har HIV eller AIDS, eftersom sådana personer tMalaria is a well-known disease and affects large regions around the world. Medicines used for treatment already exist, but due to increasing resistance and unpleasant side effects it has become critical to develop new drug candidates. Several palladium complexes were synthesised and studied to understand their properties for treating malaria. The ligands and the complexes were synthesised and cha

Growing population in Swedish cities and limited natural resources combined with climate change impacts led decision-makers to develop densification strategies in city planning. However, densification could come with several challenges including reduced green spaces, increased urban heat island effect and energy demand, as well as the lack of thermal comfort in buildings. Densification becomes eve

Electrification of the automotive industry calls for high performing electric engines. Since the use of iron from primary sources in the production of engine cores has a high environmental impact, it would be beneficial if they could be made mostly from recycled materials. Soft magnetic composites used as cores in electric engines have lower mechanical strength compared to the alternatives. This i
