In Sweden, household preparedness is central to crisis management, but local, comprehensive data on it is largely lacking. Additionally, in academia, there is uncertainty around the correlations between actual (AHP) and perceived household preparedness (PHP). This study aims to address both these issues through the exploration of a more comprehensive framework to assess household preparedness. The
Syftet med studien var att undersöka ungdomars upplevelse av samtalskontakt med kurator på Ungdomsmottagningarna (UM) i Skåne. Deltagarna var ungdomar 12-23 år. Undersökningen gjordes genom sammanställning och analys av enkätsvar som samlats in av verksamheten genom intervjuformuläret UngDOK som använts av samtliga kuratorer i UM Skåne under perioden januari 2023 till februari 2024. Studiens ansat
With the advancement of artificial intelligence, customers and users in general have been more used to having a virtual assistance method for service-related tasks. However, in the shopping centre industry, the self-help solutions mostly follow the traditional pattern of having a conciérge or a totem where you can look for the location of a particular store. This thesis aims to look at this with a
By examining how pedagogues in the Archives think and work with the availability of archive material, the purpose of this master thesis is to analyze how teaching is planned and adapted to different students and student groups at upper secondary school. The study was conducted using a qualitative method with semi-structured questions. Eleven pedagogues in the Archives were interviewed and the resu
This study was conducted on blue mussels, Mytilus edulis trossulus, to investigate how the blue mussels have been affected by the bunker oil following the oil spill from the ferry Marco Polo. The study will examine the impact of bunker oil on the physiology and behavior of the blue mussel. The blue mussel is one of the key species in the Baltic Sea and serves as an indicator species, making it sui
A lot of time and care have been put into exploring and explaining the power relations between nurses and nursing assistants, the emotional investment appropriate in care work, different views on leisure time for staff in this context (Warming, 2019; Habel, 2021; Jervis, 2002; Crocker, 2019). Less work has been done in exploring the complex relationships care workers have with their patients and h
The impact of the sourcing department has gotten more and more attention in the past couple of decades. This has resulted in numerous frameworks and scorecards to guide companies through different sourcing decisions. This interest in sourcing has grown side by side with the increased globalisation and outsourcing. Therefore, relevant measurable criteria have moved from a supplier-oriented level, t
Ovarian cancer is one of the deadliest cancer forms in women and is a disease in need of improved biomarkers for detection and drug targets alike. Such molecules can be discovered by studying the proteome of the cells. Phosphoproteomic studies have become increasingly more popular as it has a high potential for mapping cell signaling and to find new signaling molecules for drug targeting. Currentl
This thesis aims to test the effect of changing gender roles on fertility. Previous literature has suggested that moving towards gender equality in the household sphere can increase fertility. I test whether a more equal division of housework or gender-egalitarian attitudes affect fertility. Two country groups are analysed that are at different levels regarding fertility and female labour force pa
Background and Aim: Sweden is one of the European countries which receive refugees worldwide, including those from Myanmar. As Myanmar refugees begin to resettle in Swedish society, they might experience challenges that may affect their mental health and well-being. Although mental health problems of immigrants in Sweden have increased over the past years, few studies have addressed the mental wel
Segregation is a well-known process problem that may cost companies quality and time. The aim of this project was to establish a fundamental understanding about sifting segregation by using the sifting segregation tester described in the ASTM International standard. In this work, Cellets and Suglets were used to study particles tendency to segregate at different weight ratios and different particl
A growing population and environmental pressure impose the obligation for more sustainability on food systems. Shifting from animal- and fish-based products to more environmentally benign protein sources is a crucial element in this transition. Single-cell protein refers to the edible biomass from microorganisms such as fungi, yeast or algae and is a promising way to source proteins on an industri
Med allt större efterfrågan på tillgänglig data ökar antalet REST API:er markant världen över. Varje REST API har någon form av referensdokumentation, vilket är avgörande för förståelsen samt användandet av ett API. Samtliga API-leverantörer bör således överväga optimering av referensdokumentationens användbarhet för att underlätta inlärning och användning av sin produkt. Denna masteravhandling uWith an increasingly growing demand for accessible data, the amount of REST API:s worldwide is growing. All REST API:s come with some form of reference documentation, which is crucial for the comprehension and usage of the API. Every API provider should therefore consider the usability of their reference documentation, to facilitate the learning and usage of their product. This master's thesi
In 1995 and 1996 a Swedish feed mill had problems due to a persistent contamination of Salmonella enterica spp. enterica serovar Senftenberg that was difficult to eliminate. Forty-eight strains isolated from the feed mill, together with unrelated strains included to evaluate the discriminatory power and reproducibility, were analysed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). The source of contam
It has been stated many times that the formation of radiation infringements in PbWO4 is to a big extent stipulated by the non-stoichiometry defects of the crystals, arising in the process of their growth and annealing. To refine the idea of characteristics of the non-stoichiometry defects and their effect on the radiation hardness of PbWO4, the current study is aimed at the melt composition infrin
The fate of ornithine in the nephron of the female OF-1 Swiss mouse remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to identify the nephron segments containing the key enzymes involved in ornithine metabolism: ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and ornithine aminotransferase (OAT). Viable tubules isolated by microdissection were incubated with [1-14C]ornithine to study the oxidative pathway. Other tu
This dissertation argues that the English Protestant interpretations between 1845 and 1864 of John Henry Newman’s secession were related to the notions which formed part of the British national identity. It demonstrates how various writers modelled their interpretations of Newman’s secession on the beliefs of British anti-Catholicism. By understanding the British national identity as a common cult
We examined the relationship between plasma levels of corticosterone and the migratory activity and directional preference of red-eyed vireos during fall migration at the northern coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Corticosterone is thought to play a role in physiological and behavioural processes before, during, and after long-distance migratory flights. An increase in corticosterone at the onset of mi
BACKGROUND: Yeast and bacteria elicit arachidonate release in macrophages, leading to the formation of leukotrienes and prostaglandins, important mediators of inflammation. Receptors recognising various microbes have been identified, but the signalling pathways are not entirely understood. Cytosolic phospholipase A2 is a major down-stream target and this enzyme is regulated by both phosphorylation
The empirical part of this study is based on a survey of 600 Swedish households and a number of interviews where questions about residential energy behaviour and possible policy instruments for change were raised. The study provides insight into current behavioural patterns and gives a bottom-up perspective on the realistic perspective potentials for change and ways to achieve them. Residential en
