Mental health problems in Sweden are a growing concern, especially among children and young adults. Child and adolescent psychiatry services (BUP) in Sweden currently have more active cases than in previous years. Consequences of this include an increase in diagnoses of ADHD, a higher risk of suicide among children and young adults, and a growing number of involuntary hospitalisations. The purpose
Supplier performance has become increasingly important for industrial companies as suppliers play acriticalroleinoperationalefficiency,deliveryreliability,andlong-termcompetitiveness. Despite this, many organizations still lack structured systems for evaluating and monitoring supplier per- formance. This thesis addresses this challenge through a case study conducted at Sandvik Rock Processing, whe
Inadequate physical activity constitutes one of today's most significant public health challenges in Sweden and is associated with several physical and mental health risks. At the same time, there is growing evidence that highlights how the built environment shapes opportunities for everyday physical activity. Physical planning can therefore work as an important tool to promote public health.
This report has been written as part of the ERASMUS+ project CLARITY. The aim of CLARITY is to enhance educators' skills for nurturing resilience and reducing climate anxiety of learners through trauma-informed and creative approaches that link inner and outer dimensions of change. Sustainability and climate education tend to focus on environmental facts, whilst little room is given to the human d
This article responds to the general neglect of legal culture in the study of climate mobilities. It presents a case study of climate mobilities in an unplanned settlement in Maputo, Mozambique, exploring how legal culture influenced residents’ decision-making processes as they navigated climate-related risks in their daily lives. We demonstrate that legal culture can facilitate climate mobilities
The impoundment of hydroelectric reservoirs is associated with significant emissions of green house gases. In addition, the loss of the pre-flooded landscape is a substantial factor in the long-term carbon footprint of hydroelectric reservoirs. The Paix-des-Braves reservoir in Québec was one of the first reservoirs to be studied in regards of its total carbon footprint, combining pre- and post-imp

Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to adjust for baseline differences.MethodsDEbranching versus FENestrated Repair for Left SubClavian Arter
This thesis investigates how discrete-event simulation (DES) can serve as decision support for evaluating the performance of an Automated Storage and Retrieval System (AS/RS) within the inbound material flow at Company X. The AS/RS, referred to as the Highbay, has been identified as the primary bottleneck of the inbound material flow at the factory. Its performance is therefore a major concern, pa
Renewable energy expansion and carbon sink enhancement are central to developing sustainable climate pathways, yet the rapid deployment of renewable energy technologies is intensifying land-use competition and increasing the need for more resource-efficient siting strategies. Solar development on former peat extraction sites represents one such approach, as it enables the use of degraded land whil
Introduction – On-site sanitation systems (OSS) are the primary sanitation technology used to manage household fecal sludge in the Global South, including Kigali City. Poor quality OSS can lead to the spread of fecal-oral diseases and water resource pollution. Previous studies have demonstrated that OSS in Kigali are ineffective. In 2018, the Rwanda Standards Board adopted ISO 24521 to guide the d
This article examines the underexplored issue of public social protection in the artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector. Social protection is defined as public actions taken in response to levels of vulnerability, risk, and deprivation considered socially unacceptable within a given society and polity. Drawing on a study of ASM in Rwanda, the article identifies a range of state-led policies
Metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon materials are promising electrocatalysts towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), yet the nature of the active sites remains under debate. Previous investigations based on ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterization and computational modelling studied the role of graphitic N species in ORR and suggested that these species at the carbon edges are
This thesis examines whether the general principle of the right to good, as enshrined in Article 41 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (CFR), can be considered an independent justiciable right for individuals. The analysis focuses in particular on recent concerns about rule of law backsliding in certain Member States and the resulting limitations on effective judicial prote
Denna uppsats syftar till att belysa hur social acceleration kan förstås påverka lagstiftningsprocessen och lagstiftningsprodukten. Med utgångspunkt i 36 § AvtL, undersöks hur social acceleration speglas i lagstiftningsarbetet. Detta görs särskilt i förhållande till den problembild lagstiftaren beskriver, lagens syfte och slutligen hur detta tar sig uttryck i dess utformning. För att uppnå detta sThis paper aims to shed light on the impact of social acceleration on the legislative process and the legislative product. § 36 of the Swedish Contracts Act (henceforth referred to as the Contracts Act) forms the basis for an examination of how social acceleration is reflected in the legislative process. This is in relation to the problem described by the legislator, the purpose of the law and fin
Barn och unga som enlig LVU är placerade på särskilda ungdomshem befin-ner sig i en särskilt utsatt situation. Utöver de särskilda befogenheter som ut-tryckligen regleras i LVU och som inskränker barnens grundläggande rättig-heter, används i praktiken även åtgärden fasthållning. Denna åtgärd är inte reglerad i LVU som särskild befogenhet men används ofta i samband med eller i stället för avskiljniChildren and young people who, according to the Care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act (the Act), are placed in special residential homes are in a particularly vulnerable state. In addition to the special authorities express-ly regulated by law, which restrict the fundamental rights of children, the measure of physical restraint is also used in practice. This measure is not regulated in th
This interview study explores how efforts to reduce the number of NEETs works and if there is a gap in the ideas of how these efforts work between NEETs and local authorities in Malmö. This study brings forth the voices of NEETs and representatives from local authorities that work with the group on a professional basis. The purpose of the study is two-folded. Primarily the purpose is to take this
Denna studie undersöker effekterna av social önskvärdhet på emotionell intelligens och dess implikationer för samband och prediktioner i relation till personlighetsfaktorerna i Big Five. Då båda konstrukten ofta uppskattas genom självskattningstest mottagliga för påverkan av social önskvärdhet, ämnar denna studie att undersöka huruvida mätinstrumenten för emotionell intelligens, TEIQue-SF och delaThis study investigates the effects of social desirability on emotional intelligence and its implications for the relationships and predictions regarding Big Five personality factors. Since both constructs are often estimated through self-report measures susceptible to social desirability, this research aimed to examine whether the TEIQue-SF and parts of the SSREIT measures of emotional intelligen
Bakgrund: Studier visar att barn upplever rädsla och ångest vid kontakt med hälso- och sjukvården. Medicinska ingrepp är en vanlig orsak till rädslor hos barn. Sjuksköterskan har en central roll i att hjälpa barn hantera känslor som rädsla och ångest. Syfte: Att belysa hur sjuksköterskan kan hjälpa barn mellan 6-12 år att hantera rädsla och ångest vid kontakt med hälso- och sjukvården. Design: De
Some numerical methods approximate the Jacobian using finite differences as part of their process. The finite difference method of approximation resembles the limit definition of the derivative. Since a computer cannot handle the mathematical concept of limits, a sufficiently small number has to be chosen as an increment. However, when the increments are chosen outside of certain acceptable ranges
Thermo Fisher Scientific manufacture automatic pipetting instruments for diagnostic tests. These tests are sensitive to abnormalities and changes in e.g. volume or density could potentially lead to less precision or other issues in the pipetting work flow. Utilizing data collected from a pressure sensor inside the pipette could be a way of automatically verifying different aspects related to the p
