Are you threatening me?: Exploration of generalised anxiety and social anxiety’s influence on responses to social and non-social threats.

Anxiety disorders are some of the most prevalent disorders in modern times and often seriously impact the daily lives of sufferers. Although there is an abundance of research investigating potential links between anxiety and threat response, there is a lack of study into the nuanced relationships between different anxiety types and threat types. In addition, there are considerable limitations to m

A Proof of Myhill's Theorem in the Effective Topos

One of the first results in classical computability theory was establishing the undecidability of the halting problem. In this thesis we will prove an even stronger version in the internal logic of the effective topos; more precisely in its full subcategory \(Mod(\mathcal{K}_1)\) of modest sets internal to assemblies \(Ass(\mathcal{K}_1)\). We will do this by proving that the diagonal halting set

Varje ord ett vägskäl: en komparativ studie av de styrdokument som reglerar utbildning för nyanlända elever i Sverige och i Andalusien

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka likheter och skillnader det finns i de styrdokument som reglerar utbildningen för nyanlända elever i Sverige och i den autonoma regionen Andalusien i Spanien. Det svenska styrdokumentet utgörs av de allmänna råd som Skolverket publicerade 2016 och det spanska dokumentet är en lagtext som reglerar undervisningen för nyanlända från 2007. Studien är en kompThe aim of this study is to investigate what similarities and differences there are to be found in those policy documents that regulate the education for immigrant students in Sweden and in the autonomous region Andalucia in Spain. The Swedish document consists of “general advices” that are provided by the Department of Education of Sweden from 2016 and the Spanish document is a legal text that re

Oxidation of 1,6-hexanediol to adipic acid using resting cells of Gluconobacter oxydans and screening of the responsible enzyme(s)

Adipic acid (AA) has been a valuable industry chemical over the last century, whose production process carbon footprint resides far away from today’s environment-friendly ideals. Therefore, a biological approach for adipic acid production under mild conditions has been studied in this thesis. Wild-type strains of Gluconobacter oxydans have been cultivated to obtain resting cells that were used for

Underliggande maktutövning för att motivera människor att vaccinera sig mot covid-19 i Sverige

Under coronapandemin har Sverige tillämpat en coronahateringsstrategi som bygger på frivillighet och personligt ansvar där tvång inte tillämpas. Myndigheter och experter har haft uppdraget att formulera rekommendationer istället för specifika ingripande åtgärder. Där människor har haft friheten att välja det som dem själva vill följa utav dessa rekommendationer. Rekommendationer under pandemier är

Skapa en bättre vardag: Träning och dess intensitets relation till emotioner, fokus samt prokrastinering

Människor upplever universellt emotioner dagligen som påverkar deras beteende. Syftet med studien är därför att se hur träning och träningsintensitet relaterar till emotioner och hur träning fungerar som ett verktyg för att ta sig an emotioner. Forskningsfrågan var därför ”Hur ser sambandet ut mellan akut träning och träningsintensitet med känsloavlastning, problemfokus samt prokrastinering?”. DärPeople universally experience emotions daily that affect their behavior. The purpose of this study is to see how exercise and exercise intensity relate and how exercise acts like a tool to manage their emotions. The research question was therefore: “Is there a connection between exercise and exercise intensity with emotional relief, focus and procrastination?”. The study’s hypothesis is that acute

Negotiations of Socialist Feminism: Gender and sexual orientation in conflicting perceptions of socialism, feminism and power in the Danish socialist party, Enhedslisten

This thesis is a study of conflicting perceptions provoked by Enhedslisten’s, Danish political party, attempt to practice socialist feminism organizationally.

Energy-efficient monitoring system for fire extinguishers

Fire extinguishers are a requirement for fire safety in every type of building today. The effectiveness of a fire extinguisher is however dependent on it not leaking and keeping the pressure. To assure that this is not the case, maintenance is recommended at regular intervals, by the owners themselves at monthly intervals, and once per year by professionals. This however leaves the fire extinguish

A Techno-Economic Case Study of the Implementation of Hydrogen Technology in Connection to a CHP Plant

Till följd av den pågående energikrisen har vi under 2022 upplevt skenande elpriser och hot om bortkoppling av kunder från elnätet. Nya lösningar som säkerställer tillgång på el och balans i elnätet är nödvändiga. En lösning som visar stor potential är lagring av energi i vätgas. En av utmaningarna som Sveriges elnät står inför, och som det pratats mycket om den senaste tiden, är effektbrist. EffWith climate change as the main driving force, the energy system is currently undergoing changes. Both the share of renewable resources used to produce electricity and the overall electrification is increasing. A way to handle the resulting challenges from more intermittent electricity production is by the implementation hydrogen technology. Hydrogen technology can help balance the electricity net
