Hungrig redan två timmar efter frukost? En kalori är inte en kalori. Frukostar med olika komposition påverkar hungerkänslor på olika vis, trots att de innehåller samma mängd energi. Det är inte heller den frukost som du först känner dig mest mätt av som sedan gör att du äter minst till lunch. Denna studie har undersökt fyra frukostar, Ägg & bröd, Ägg & frukt, Yoghurt & müsli och SyThis master thesis aims to examine the effect of isoenergetic but different composed breakfasts on satiety and satiation in a Swedish context. Four isoenergetic breakfasts were composed: egg & bread, egg & fruits, yoghurt & müsli and jam & bread. The breakfasts were composed pairwise where the first two consisted of the same distribution of glycemic carbohydrates, fiber, protein an

We carried out qualitative interviews in three larger Swedish municipaliti

This paper focuses on the use of relative clauses, specifically internally headed relative clauses in Japanese. Previous research on different types of relative clauses occurring in Japanese is also presented. The main purpose of the thesis is to give an up to date analysis of the understanding of relative clauses. A survey was carried out to further research at what point sentences with relative

Buildings are getting taller due to increased urbanisation and densification of cities. More advanced construction methods and the desire to construct impressive buildings is also supporting the trend. Due to their inherent slenderness resulting in low eigenfrequencies, these buildings are susceptible to wind-induced vibrations which can be highly disturbing for occupants. Already barely perceivab

Arbetar samhällsviktiga verksamheter gemensamt för att hantera samhällets sårbarheter? När en händelse såsom då en storm sker, kan de allra flesta se hur sårbart samhället är och hur lätt ett problem hos en verksamhet snabbt sprider sig till andra verksamheter i samhället. Hur arbetar aktörer gemensamt för att hantera detta? Vi är många som har vaknat upp en morgon och sett att vägarna ligger vThe objective of this thesis is to provide answers to how a method can be designed to gain better knowledge of how collaboration looks between different critical societal activities in a preparing and preventive stage related to the management of transboundary risks. The designed method consists of two parts; a technique for data acquisition, and a method for data analysis. In order to evaluate th

Den moderna partikelfysiken är utan tvekan en av männsklighetens största triumfer hittils. Sedan dess begynnelse i slutet på 1900-talet har partikelfysiker världen över lyckats skapa det mest uttömmande svaret på frågan vad allting består av. Det sista stora hålet som fanns kvar i den så kallade Standardmodellen var partikeln som förklarar hur de andra partiklarna får sin massa, Higgspartikeln, upA hypertest-algorithm, the BUMPHUNTER, is introduced briefly and tested by probing events containing muons in 8 TeV datasets from the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN against a background spectrum created by selecting muons from different collisions. The hypertest looked for excesses of same sign di-muon pairs which could indicate the existence of a Majorana neutrino. The

Information är en värdefull tillgång, och att garantera dess säkerhet är en konstant utmaning för alla inblandade. Nuförtiden säljs det fler avancerade mobila enheter än datorer per år, men säkerheten i dessa enheter släpar efter jämfört med säkerheten som erbjuds för datoranvändare. Syftet med denna uppsats är att ta reda på hur medvetna användare är kring säkerhetsrisker som berör mobila enheter

The aim of our study was to examine how staff, working with unaccompanied refugee children experience their work and the children’s integration to the society.

Trots det väldiga överflöd av forskning som finns om organisationsförändring är det idé att börja titta på förändring ur ett mer långsiktigt perspektiv. Detta mot bakgrund av den tidigare forskningen som konstaterar att omkring 70 procent av alla förändringsinitiativ som görs misslyckas. Därför är det väsentligt att förstå förändring och dess implementeringssvårigheter på en djupare dimension. Den

The aim of this study was to investigate whether students in the field of social work assess symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation differently, depending on the age of the client. A case vignette method was used where social work students in Lund (N=102) and Helsingborg (N=71) responded to one of two online questionnaires each. The case vignette featured a 78 year old client for the student

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological illness affecting 10% of all women in childbearing age, 200 000 of them in Sweden, causing abdominal inflammation and adhesion formation, all of which inflicts pain. It affects every aspect of a woman’s life, not the least psychologically, leading to anxiety, depression and decreased function and decreased quality of life. This online survey explored what p

This work investigates how the heat produced by a solar dryer can improve the drying process of newly developed breathable membrane bags for drying and thus preserving fruits in developing countries and the increased efficiency of the process. For that purpose, a solar dryer was built and tested in an indoor solar simulator with similar irradiation as the sun. Due to a limited time span, only one

This essay will explore which social and cultural mechanisms that legitimatize a group of people to commit genocide by discussing the terms “victimization” and “de-humanization”. The essay starts with a research on the term “genocide”, specifically which groups that are, or are not, protected under the Genocide Convention and moves on to Stuart Kaufmans “symbolic politics theory” to discuss how po

Abstract: China’s development today no doubt has had the country placed in the centre of the stage. However, the past turns out to be the opposite if we look back. While the other major countries stepped into the industrial era it seems like China was still napping with its daydreams. In this paper we dig deeply into the political, economic and social aspects of the country at the time and we thin
