Background: In dementia care, it is crucial that the chain of care is adapted to the needs of people with dementia and their informal caregivers throughout the course of the disease. Assessing the existing dementia care system with regard to facilities, availability and utilization may provide useful information for ensuring that the professional dementia care and service system meets the needs of
Vad står vi på – hur tar man reda på det? Kanske man kan titta på en geologisk karta, borra ett hål eller gräva en grop? Det kan gå bra, men ibland finns det inte tillräckligt detaljerade kartor och att gräva upp allt man är intresserad av är ingen lysande idé. Tänk om man kunde forska fram en metod som gör att man kan se rakt igenom marken, som röntgenundersökningar på sjukhus! På sätt och vis ka
The paper explores knowledge recombination by analysing how knowledge networks in established technological fields influenced the formation of the emerging field of green shipping in the period 2007–2018. Previous research has demonstrated that embeddedness, proximity, and status are important mechanisms for the evolution of single technological fields. We investigate if these mechanisms also appl
The contemporary literature has largely addressed corporate social responsibility (CSR) at the macro or institutional level, whereas its effect at the micro-level is largely ignored. In addition, contemporary researchers have also ignored the importance of employee pro-environmental behavior to reduce the environmental footprint of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). With this back-ground, the pr
This report assesses the phenomenon of in-work poverty in Sweden inrelation to the four specific VUP groups identified within the Working, Yet Poor project. It is shown that the main drivers of in-work poverty in Sweden are not related to the wage setting system as dealt with through collective bargaining as such. Rather, in-work poverty is more closely associated with work-intensity affecting wor
Var fjärde person blir i dag sjuk till följd av sitt arbete. Att höja pensionsåldern för alla yrkesgrupper, utan konkreta åtgärder för att minska ohälsan, är därför problematiskt och mycket oroande. Det är, enligt forskarna, inte långsiktigt samhällsekonomiskt lönsamt att utan andra åtgärder höja pensionsåldern för alla. Vi – 54 forskare – är mycket oroade över konsekvenserna av att, som föreslagi
This article focuses on coordination between governance actors in a public university. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate and analyze policy documents as governance tools that allow departmental management to coordinate with the authorities, the board, and the management at different university levels. A central finding is that the importance of policy documents as governance tools takes e
Abstract Purpose Treatment with blood pressure lowering drugs may reduce morbidity and mortality. However, the efficacy and effectiveness may differ between antihypertensive agents. The current investigation aimed to compare mortality and cancer incidence in hypertensive patients treated with calcium channel blockers (CCB) or with other antihypertensive drugs (AHD). Methods All patients in two o
Irritable bowel syndrome has a negative impact on a person's quality of life, but only a few existing studies have been based on patients' own perceptions. This study therefore aimed to collect information on the view of female patients with irritable bowel syndrome regarding what constitutes a good quality of life for them and to create a healthcare model for these patients. For the study, 30 wom
Ageing, with increases in the old-age dependency ratio, puts a strain on pension systems organised as a pay-as-you-go system. The question asked is whether the Swedish system will be politically as weill as financially stable in the future. The design is described and analysed with resspect to sustainability.
The chapter argues that language, which rests on the sharing of linguistic norms, honest information, and moral norms, evolved through a co-evolutionary process with a pivotal role for intersubjectivity. Mainstream evolutionary models, based only on individual-level and gene-level selection, are argued to be incapable to account for such sharing of care, values and information, thus implying the n
Fuel Taxes and the Poor challenges the conventional wisdom that gasoline taxation, an important and much-debated instrument of climate policy, has a disproportionately detrimental effect on poor people. Increased fuel taxes carry the potential to mitigate carbon emissions, reduce congestion, and improve local urban environment. As such, higher gasoline taxes could prove to be a fundamental part of
Coordination is an important success factor for a development project. Communication gaps, e.g. between product owners shaping the requirements and testers verifying the developed software can result in wasted effort and unsuccessful products. We propose improving the communication between project members with recommendations of whom to interact with and what to discuss based on link prediction in
