The purpose of this study was to find out why people choose to be physically inactive when only thirty minutes of exercise a day is sufficient to have a positive effect on one's health. In order to find out the reasons why people do not exercise, we conducted semistructured interviews with twenty people from Malmoe. The participants were between 23 and 63 years of age with the group consisting
Under hösten 2017 rasade det så kallade #metoo-uppropet i Sverige, och vittnesmål efter vittnesmål gavs bilden av hur sexuella trakasserier förekommer i tysthet på våra arbetsplatser. Diskussionen, som alltjämt pågår om än med lägre intensitet, har sagts kunna komma att utgöra ett paradigmskifte för vad som ska anses vara ett accepterat beteende på arbetsplatsen, och att det skulle vara svårt att During the Autumn of 2017, the #metoo movement sprung across Sweden with a deafening amount of testimonies of sexual harassment taking place in the quiet on work places across the country. The debate that started in the wake of this movement is still going on, albeit with less intensity, has been said to constitute a paradigm as to what kind of behaviors we will accept in our future working enviro
The packing of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) in the anisotropic chiral nematic phase has been investigated over a wide concentration range by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and laser diffraction. The average separation distance between the CNCs and the average pitch of the chiral nematic phase have been determined over the entire isotropic−anisotropic biphasic region. The average separation di
MÖNCH is a 25 mm-pitch charge-integrating detector aimed at exploring the limits of current hybrid silicon detector technology. The small pixel size makes it ideal for high-resolution imaging. With an electronic noise of about 110 eV r.m.s., it opens new perspectives for many synchrotron applications where currently the detector is the limiting factor, e.g. inelastic X-ray scattering, Laue diffrac
The purpose of this essay is to examine the ideas that are prominent in the Swedish disability policy regarding the stated goal of equal participation in society for all. In order to achieve this, I have chosen to focus on two documents, they are SOU 1982:46 Handlingsprogram i handikappfrågor and Prop. 2016/17:188 Nationellt mål och inriktning för funktionshinderspolitiken. I have examined these t
Uppsatsen avhandlar den s.k. reglementeringstiden (år 1812-1918) då regleringar infördes för att hindra spridningen av veneriska sjukdomar. Den fokuserar på Stockholm och på hur dessa regleringar drabbade kvinnor under denna tid samt belyser detta ur ett genusperspektiv. Den ger en kort bakgrund till Sverige samt kvinnornas situation under 1800-talet. Sedan avhandlas regleringarna under denna tid The thesis deals with the so-called regulation time (“reglementeringstiden)(in 1812-1918) when regulations were introduced to prevent the spread of venereal diseases. It focuses on Stockholm and how these regulations affected women during this time and highlights this from a gender perspective. It gives a brief background to Sweden and the situation of women in the 19th century. The thesis continu
Sedan 1950-talet har omfattningen av anståndsreglerna i skattelagstiftningen utökats och gjorts mindre och mindre restriktiva. Lagstiftaren har gång på gång uttalat en önskan om att utöka möjligheterna till anstånd för att bättre ta tillvara den enskildes intresse av att inte behöva betala felaktigt påförd skatt och gång på gång har reglerna visat sig tillämpas allt för restriktivt vilket i sin tuSince the 1950s, the scope of the tax regulations regarding postponed payment has been expanded and the regulations made less and less restrictive. The legislature has repeatedly expressed a desire to extend the possibility for the individual to be granted a postponed payment in order better to meet the interest of the tax payer not to have to pay undue taxes. Repeatedly the rules have proved too
The statistics shows that foreign-born women are the group where the lowest percentage of people are employed and the only group where unemployment increases in Sweden. The purpose of this study was to explore how foreign-born women’s experience of supportive and obstructive factors in connection with gainful employment in Sweden. Their experiences of the community's support and help to create
The inability of the Security Council to consistently apply The Responsibility to Protect has drawn criticism towards the council, accusing it of a western bias. If true, this could prove a serious dent in the UN’s ambition to maintain international peace and security according to the seventh chapter of the UN charter. The aim of this study is to compare and analyze different conflicts in order to
A sample of 229 nearby thick disk stars has been used to investigate theexistence of an age-metallicity relation (AMR) in the Galactic thickdisk. The results indicate that that there is indeed an age-metallicityrelation present in the thick disk. By dividing the stellar sample intosub-groups, separated by 0.1 dex in metallicity, we show that the medianage decreases by about 5-7 Gyr when going from
För att ett barn ska kunna omhändertas utan dennes eller föräldrarnas samtycke krävs antingen att det föreligger brister i den unges hemmiljö eller i dennes beteende. Dessutom krävs att en prognos görs från förvaltningsrättens sida huruvida dessa brister utgör en påtaglig risk för att den unges hälsa och utveckling skadas. Rekvisitet påtaglig risk ersatte 1990 de tidigare rekvisiten fara respektiIn order to take a child into custody without the consent of the child or its parents it is necessary that there are deficiencies in the child’s home environment or in his or her behaviour. In addition, there also has to be a significant risk that the child’s health and development will be harmed. The term significant risk has been in use since the law was renewed in 1990 when it replaced the old
It has been argued that harmonization leads to a more effective delivery of aid to recipient countries, and ultimately to the target population and thus cooperation in general would be an adequate means to achieve this goal. However, the implementation of the Paris Agenda has so far progressed slowly. Vietnam is often reported as a case where cooperation between donors is working fine. By making u
In this thesis I study depictions of USA in works written by the two Swedish authors Anna Lenah Elgström (1884-1968) and Lars Gustafsson (1936- ). The purpose is to shed light on the expressions of modernity in crisis in their depictions of the USA. To fulfill this purpose I study the material from a phenomenological method approach combined with a theoretical focus. I find that they both give exp
This article aims to expand our understanding of projectification in Swedish municipalities. Above all the article explores to what extent processes of projectification can be identified and if so how they unfold. The article draws its inspiration from critical management studies and uses the notion of sensemaking to identify the practices of projectification processes. Three processes of projecti
The world today faces many different environmental problems, which has a negative effect. These are both global, regional and local, which means that they affect all people. To be able to overcome this and be able to promote a long-term sustainability, it is essential that all contribute and take responsibility for it. An example of doing this is to get more people to commute rather than using the
Emphasis is being placed on how life narratives can be incorporated into caring for the elderly based on the assumption that aged health care should be grounded on narrative perspectives in order to reduce ageist behaviours. The success of this however depends on the willingness of the elderly to share their stories. The aim of this study was to explore the reasons why Swedish elders decline to sh
