Studien är en del i det ordinarie kvalitetsarbetet på en psykiatrisk öppenvårdsenhet. Syftet var att undersöka huruvida den behandling som erbjuds individer med emotionellt instabilt personlighetssyndrom (EIPS), Mentaliseringsbaserad terapi (MBT), har någon inverkan på patienternas psykiska hälsa/ohälsa. För att göra detta användes Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation – Outcome Measures (CORE-O
This study measures the effect of competition on leverage using unbalanced panel data from 4,957 US listed firms within 8 industries. To address the issues associated with concentration indexes, we contribute to the literature by using a new measure of competition – the Boone indicator which is based on efficiency. Initially results indicate a positive (negative) effect of competition (concentrati
As almost three out of four EU citizens live in urban areas and this number is expected to further grow, studies on urban ecosystems and their services are crucial to understand a city’s environmental structure and capabilities. The European Commission has published a relative report which suggests an urban ecosystem condition indicator framework, yet without suggesting respective thresholds tha
Skiljeförfarande som tvistlösningsform har blivit allt vanligare mellan kommersiella parter, till stor del på grund av dess effektivitet och slutgiltighet. Skiljedomar kan enbart upphävas enligt ett begränsat antal grunder i 34 § 1 st. lag (1999:166) om skiljeförfarande (LSF). En av dessa klandergrunder kan åberopas om skiljenämnden begått ett handläggningsfel utan parts vållande som sannolikt påvCommercial arbitration has become increasingly common in Sweden mostly due to its effectiveness and finality as a mechanism for solving disputes. However, according to the Swedish Arbitration Act of 1999 (SAA), arbitration awards can only be set aside in a limited number of situations. One of the situations when it is possible to set aside an award is when an arbitration tribunal has made a proced
Supercritical fluid extraction method was optimized and applied to extract seed oil from baobab seed (Adansonia digitata L.). A full-factorial design was used to investigate the interaction influence of density and temperature in the range of 0.6-0.8 g/ml 40 to 77 °C, respectively, on the extracted amount of oil from crushed seeds. The results showed that density has a significant influence on the
This paper examines the relation between violent conflicts and democratization in Georgia. Since independence in 1991, Georgia has grown towards increased democratization but within the political transition, many obstacles, in form of violent conflicts and war have threatened the country. In the Democratization and War theory, Mansfield & Snyder argues that increased democracy increases the ri
Background: Factor V-Short (FV756-1458) is a natural splice variant in which 702 residues are deleted from the B domain. It exposes an acid region (AR2; 1493–1537) that binds tissue factor pathway inhibitor alpha (TFPIα). Protein S also interacts with TFPIα and serves as TFPIα-cofactor in factor Xa (FXa) inhibition. FV-Short and protein S function as synergistic TFPIα-cofactors in inhibition of FX
This thesis addresses a project conducted in collaboration with Volvo Car Corporation, to develop a new concept for luggage covers in car luggage compartments. The purpose was to find a new concept, with focus on user friendliness and environmental sustainability, which automatically opens up for easy loading of the luggage compartment. The fabric in today's solution is made of polyester and P
The demand for high data rates in a wireless communication system has experienced a remarkable growth over the last years. This demand is continually increasing with the growing number of wirelessly connected devices. Thus, there is a continuing hunt for increasing the data transmission rate in wireless communication systems. To increase the data rate, the modern wireless communication system cann
The purpose of this study is to investigate the increasing specialisation of tasks in contemporary organisations and ensuing demand of expertise, and how these factors are affecting the leadership within virtual teams (teams in organisations working virtually with help of technology). Globalisation and a technological revolution has greatly transformed the business world during the last decades, w
What could be considered an adequate level of daylight in buildings has become a debated question in the Swedish building industry. The current daylight requirements are often found difficult to meet in practice, especially in combination with other requirements regarding energy use. Outdated daylight requirements in the national building code combined with limited knowledge about the subjective i
