Introduction: The first-line evidence-based treatment for chronic pain is multidisciplinary treatment involving pain-focused CBT. Studies have shown that changes in psychological flexibility (PF) during pain-focused CBT positively mediatesoutcomes, even when the treatment does not specifically target PF. While CBT and PF-based treatments for chronic pain yield small to moderate, but clinically mea
The transformation of CO2 and green hydrogen into methanol presents a sustainable route for chemical and fuel production. Conventional methanol synthesis catalysts, such as Cu/ZnO/Al2O3, employ Al2O3 as a structural promoter, while Ga2O3 has recently emerged as a promising alternative. This study compares Cu-based catalysts supported on Al2O3 (CA) and Ga2O3 (CG), prepared via coprecipitation of la
Studio recordings of music for English bass horn and string trio from the composers Louis Massonneau, Emma Jane Lloyd, and Ylva Lund Bergner, recorded at the St Cecilia's Hall in Edinburgh on 17 January 2026.
Designing composite photocatalytic systems with nanoscale precision is crucial. While conventional facet-selective photo-deposition successfully utilizes spherical co-catalysts, the directed deposition of pre-synthesized two-dimensional (2D) materials onto specific facets remains extremely challenging. This work demonstrates an electrostatic assembly strategy for the precise deposition of 2D trans
Obesity is a stigmatized disease due to pervasive personal, professional, institutional, and cultural weight bias. Individuals with obesity experience weight bias across their lifespan and settings, which can affect their life chances and significantly impact health and social outcomes. The objectives of this study were to: (a) explore weight bias and stigma experiences of people living with obesi
Winter is a critical bottleneck period for many insects and is particularly pivotal for pest species, being a major regulator of their populations. In winter, insect fruit pests such as the invasive fly, Drosophila suzukii, not only have to cope with harsh environmental conditions but also need to find alternative resources when cultivated fruit are scarce. This study aimed to disentangle the rela
Despite being subject to a multitude of investigations, the effect of carrier particle size on the performance of adhesive mixtures for inhalation is still not well understood. This study, involving three differently sized lactose carriers, all with the regular ‘tomahawk’ particle shape, aims to provide fundamental insight into this topic. Fine particle fraction (FPF) data for binary formulations
Ethiopia is the second most populated country on the continent of Africa, with a high density of young people. Its economy remains largely based on agriculture, however, in recent years, slow structural change can be seen. Concurrently, youth education has been on the rise. Due to this phenomenon, the educated youth are now trying to match their skills with current employment opportunities. As a c
Den här studiens primära syfte är att jämföra och utvärdera två medborgardialogs metoder. De två metoderna är samrådsmöten och Public participatiory GIS (PPGIS). Samrådsmöten är en etablerad metod inom medborgardialog för samhällsplanering i Sverige. Uppsatser syftar till att pröva hypotesen om PPGIS är en effektivare metods för medborgardialog. Uppsatsen utvärderade först de två metoderna med hThe primary purpose of this study is to compare and evaluate two public participation methods. The two methods are public meetings and Public participatory GIS (PPGIS). Public meetings are an established public participation method for urban planning in Sweden. The thesis aims to test the hypothesis if PPGIS is more effective as a public participation method. The thesis first evaluated the two me
There is limited research conducted into the field of male victims of intimate partner abuse. Although, recent Swedish studies show that male victimization from female offender may be equally prevalent as female victimization of partner abuse. Previous international examples suggest that male victims may be less likely to acknowledge themselves as “victims” and therefore less likely to take legal
In Sweden, wind has been recognized as a necessary power source to fight climate change. But the expansion of wind power is associated with conflicting interests. The permit process to build and operate wind power plants is often described as inefficient and complex, with long lead times. This study investigates possibilities for how the Swedish permit process for wind power can be streamlined.
Bakgrund: Nästan varje dag diagnostiseras ett barn med cancer i Sverige. Barncancer drabbar inte bara barnet utan även resten av familjen. Sjuksköterskan spelar en central roll i omvårdnaden kring barnet och familjen och behöver kunna möta varje individs behov. Syfte: Att undersöka föräldrars upplevelse av information och kommunikation med sjuksköterskan när deras barn vårdas för cancer. Metod: En
The aim of this thesis is to detect the influence from biases on capability assessments and methods to prevent them. Evaluation of the influence from biases are based on literature studies and interviews. The result suggests that some of the biases are more likely to occur depending on the context. Three biases occurred most frequently both in the literature studies and during the interviews and t
Bakgrund: Våld mot kvinnor är ett globalt hälsoproblem som strider mot de mänskliga rättigheterna. Hälso- och sjukvården har ett ansvar att stödja kvinnor som utsatts för våld i nära relation och om så nödvändigt hänvisa dem till rätt instans där kompetens och resurser finns. Syfte: Denna litteraturstudies syfte var att belysa forskning om sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av mötet med kvinnor som utsa
The increased use of pharmaceuticals in combination with inadequate techniques and procedures in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have resulted in higher concentrations of pharmaceuticals and other organic micro pollutants (OMPs) in the aquatic environment. It has been established that these pollutants have caused changes in the behaviour and reproduction of fishes. Furthermore, these OMPs
This thesis aims to analyze how authors who write books for young adults are presented on their publishers’ website. By analyzing the textual presentation of the authors the main objective is to answer these questions: are there any reoccurring aspects in the presentations? Can you tell that the authors write for young adults? Are there any differences or similarities in how the male and female au
The aim of this study was to investigate school counselors approach towards, and experience of, working with lgbtq in school. The survey was conducted through semi-structured interviews with six school counselors working with students in age six-fifteen and sixteen-eighteen. The result of the study showed that all school counselors experienced the school environment as excluding for lgbtq-students
Introduktion: Information till patienten är ett av röntgensjuksköterskans kunskapsområde. Information är av stor betydelse i de flesta vårdsituationer, men framför allt inför undersökningar som kan innebära oro och ångest. Många patienter upplever ångest i samband med Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) undersökning. Syfte: Syftet med studie var att beskriva informations betydelse för patienter med å
