The Impostor Phenomenon is a concept that is well-known in pop-culture literature, but has received significantly less attention in academic contexts. Individuals experiencing the phenomenon have difficulty attributing their successes and achievements to personal factors and often feel like a fraud. The aim of this project was to contribute to the current literature on it, by both validating the S

Netflix categories its soft-core porn titles as Steamy Movies on the platform and even has an established category code for the genre, 11

This thesis investigates how Kosovar courts adjudicate rape by qualitatively analysing criminal provisions and court judgements. It aims to contribute to changing ‘the legal story’ of rape in Kosovo so that legal definitions and interpretations better reflect women’s experiences and avoid perpetuating harm to victims. Drawing from a feminist theoretical framework of rape myths and cultural narrati

Informal carers in paid work are known as working carers (WKCs). This combination of care and work is particular to them, and their support needs may differ from other informal carers. This exploratory study describes the caregiving-related factors associated with experiencing caregiving as demanding and a decreased ability to work in WKCs. The Swedish National Carer Survey was conducted in a stra

The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has become increasingly relevant in everyday life, yet empirical evidence from non-WEIRD countries remains limited. This thesis examined psychological factors associated with the general intention to use AI in Guatemala using the Technology Acceptance Model 3 (TAM3) as a guiding framework. Data were collected through a cross-sectional surve

Extending the service life of existing buildings and their components is essential for slowing resource loops in circular construction. While overall building lifespans are relatively well understood, the actual service lives of individual components remain underexplored due to limited empirical data. This study addresses this gap by analyzing and modeling building component lifespans using real-w

OBJECTIVE: The time taken to reach maximal haemostatic effect following local anaesthesia with epinephrine is generally believed to be <10 min. This is based on clinical experience and indirect measurements of perfusion using methods such as laser Doppler flowmetry and oxygen spectroscopy. However, the only study in which bleeding has been measured quantitatively in an intra-operative setting in h

BACKGROUND: The risks of developmental language disorder (DLD) for both educational progress and socio-emotional development are well documented, but little is known about how children and young people with DLD experience and describe their language and communication. The need to complement experimental and quantitative studies with qualitative perspectives of the lived experience of individuals w

Background: Opioid overdose related injury or death can be prevented by bystander naloxone administration. For naloxone to be present when and where overdoses occur, opioid prevention education and naloxone distribution (OPEND) must be established on a broad level. This is the 30-month follow-up of the first multi-site naloxone project in Sweden, implemented at 31 sites in the County of Skåne 2018

BackgroundThe curriculum for the courses given at the music specialization of theupper secondary school’s aesthetic program in Sweden includes theconcept of artistic expression (AE). Being a criterion for assessment, nodefinition is provided by the National Agency of Education and thereexists no consensus of how to interpret artistic expression amongmusic teachers and music teacher students.Method

Objective: The primary aim was to identify radiomics ultrasound features that can distinguish between benign and malignant adnexal masses with solid ultrasound morphology, and between primary malignant (including borderline and primary invasive) and metastatic solid ovarian masses, and to develop ultrasound-based machine learning models that include radiomics features to discriminate between benig

Despite various ongoing international initiatives, the intensity and frequency of weather-related natural hazards is expected to continue to increase globally. Increasing our understanding of how to mitigate the consequences of such natural hazards through better detection, planning and preparedness, has constituted the overarching objective of this thesis.

Water damages in buildings in the Nordic countries results in costs amounting to several billion Euros each year as well as a great deal of unpleasantness. The vast majority of the water damages cost in Sweden is caused by leaks from buildings services in the form of piping such as tap water, sewage, drainage and heating, as well as through insufficiently waterproof layers in wet rooms. The econom

Background: Ideas of patient involvement are related to notions of self-determination and autonomy, which are not always in alignment with complex interactions and communication in clinical practice.Aim: To illuminate and discuss patient involvement in routine clinical care situations in nursing practice from an ethical perspective.Method: A case study based on an anthropological field study amongBackground:Ideas of patient involvement are related to notions of self-determination and autonomy, which are not always in alignment with complex interactions and communication in clinical practice.Aim:To illuminate and discuss patient involvement in routine clinical care situations in nursing practice from an ethical perspective.Method:A case study based on an anthropological field study among pa

Encounters and interactions between healthcare professionals and patients are central in healthcare services and delivery. Encountering persons who frequently use psychiatric emergency services (PES), a complex patient group in a complex context, may be particularly challenging for healthcare professionals. The aim of the study was to explore healthcare professionals’ experiencesof such encounters

Background Improved availability of mobile phones in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) offer an opportunity to improve delivery of Community Case Management (CCM). Despite enthusiasm for introducing mHealth into healthcare across LMICs, end-user attitudes towards mHealth solutions for CCM are limited. We aimed to explore Health Surveillance Assistants’ (HSAs) perceptions of the Supporting L

Objectives: Health promotion is on the global agenda. The risks targeted include smoking, hazardous alcohol consumption, nutrition and insufficient physical activity. Implementation of clinical health promotion, however, remains a major challenge. While several processes, models and frameworks for strategic implementation exist, very few have been tested in randomized designs. Testing a strategic

Popular Abstract in Swedish Graviditetsdiabetes (GDM) definieras som nedsatt glukostolerans av varierande svårighets¬grad som upptäcks under graviditet och som oftast försvinner efter förlossning. GDM innebär ökad risk för såväl moder som barn. Kvinnor med GDM föder ofta stora barn och har ökad risk för komplikationer i samband med förlossningen.

Impaired beta-cell function and insulin resistance are the hallmarks of GDM. The overall aim of this thesis was to study the genetic and immunological risk factors that increase susceptibility to GDM. First, we investigated whether autoimmuni
