The main objective of this paper is to examine how exogenous technological progress, in terms of an increase in energy efficiency, affects consumption choice by Swedish households and thereby emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOx). The aim of the paper is closely related to the discussion of what is termed the “rebound effect”. To neutralise the rebound e

The implementation of iris scan technology in the context of humanitarian financial assistance in UNHCR-run refugee camps raises an array of legal questions. While the collection and storage of biometrical data in other contexts is often accompanied by a critical discussion about data protection and privacy concerns, the use of such data in humanitarian settings is often left uncontested. The in-d
Background:Traditional primary care is characterized by patient consultations via phone and physical visits. However, the current development in Swedish primary care is to blend digital solutions with traditional solutions. This paper addresses this development by examining the normalization of embedding and integrating a digital health care platform into everyday care routines in a primary care c
The paper investigates the phenomenon of double exploitation in ’passionate work’, where workers are exploiting themselves in their dedication to work and colleagues, simultaneously as being exposed to exploitation by employers and the industry at large. The study is based on an analysis of semi-structured interviews with game developers employed in the Swedish digital games industry. The digital
Background: Older adults with pain have an increased risk of falling (odds ratio (OR) 1,7). Pain in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is more common than in older adults. The association between pain and falling in people with PD is poorly explored.Objective: To investigate the occurrence of pain in mild PD and its association with future falls/near fallsMethods. The study included 141 participants with PD
The private garden can be regarded as an important part of the house-owner's home, but it is also the home of many other living organisms. Birds and mammals, insects, worms and not least plants live their lives intermingled in the contemporary human habitations of single-house suburbs. Thus, home gardens provide plenty of material to reflect on and handle biodiversity and sustainability issues in
Background: The ageing population is increasing worldwide, and this trend is bringing challenges both for the older person and for society. In order to meet the challenges a comprehensive approach is needed involving both health promotion and risk prevention. The preventive home visit is a public health intervention used around the world with the purpose of promoting health and preventing risk amo
Reducing train delays important in many countries, even in those like Japan, where punctuality is already high. There is a clearpattern across the literature that the delays typically occur at stations and are recovered on line sections. Previous work has shownthat one explanation for this is that trains interact at stations. When trains have different speeds or stopping patterns, overtakes areimp
