In Sweden, malignant melanoma is an important issue, because it is the most lethal form of skin cancer and has been one of the fastest increasing cancers during the last decade. The aim of our literature review was to investigate and describe preventative work, in order to identify the most efficient preventative methods for parents with young. Focus was mainly put on research from Australia since
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
Issue of study: The development of technology and society is closely linked. Mutual dependency and complex interrelationships make straightforward analysis of issues regarding the future of technology and society hard to perform. Therefore, the study addresses the question of how organizations should describe and analyze the interactions of technology and society in order to gain a better understa
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of child perspective, from the view of the social worker including its interpretation and its application in Social Welfare. Questions: What's the meaning of a child perspective from the angle of the social worker? How can this perspective be seen in the work of the social worker? How is the course of action of the social worker in h
When preferences from the past or future disagrees with present preferences about what to do now, it seems counterintuitive for preference utilitarianism to take these past and future diachronic preferences into account. In this thesis I discuss two different solutions to this problem. First, preference utilitarianism could solve the problem by becoming more sophisticated - by suggesting that we s
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
Initiating the gain process in a free-electron laser (FEL) from an external highly coherent source of radiation is a promising way to improve the pulse properties such as temporal coherence and synchronization performance in time-resolved pump-probe experiments at FEL facilities, but this so-called "seeding" suffers from the lack of adequate sources at short wavelengths. We report on the first suc
Based on a review of recent developments in Sweden and Finland, this chapter analyzes the roles of public organizations in the governance of a transition to Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS). In particular, we draw on insights from transition frameworks to explore what these two pioneering cases can teach us about how the public sector can both enable the development of MaaS and steer the development t
The last decades have seen a noticeable increase in cognitive science studies that have changed the understanding of human thinking. Its relevance for historical research cannot be overlooked any more. Cognitive history could be explained as the study of how humans in history used their cognitive abilities in order to understand the world around them and to orient themselves in it, but also how th
Absorption bands of photosynthetic and other biological pigment-protein complexes undergo dramatic variations in position and shape upon changing the temperature. In this paper we have reviewed a calculation algorithm to simulate the temperature dependence of electronic spectra coupled to any number of vibrations with arbitrary coupling strength. A number of computer simulations is carried out in
The role of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in world politics in general, and in the United Nations (UN) in particular, is increasingly gaining the attention by scholars of international law, political science and social anthropology. In this study the NGO-UN relation is investigated within the area of Human Rights. This is done by examining how NGOs are perceived by member states within the
Wildfire risk indices can be used in order to be better prepared for wildfires. In Sweden, the Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI) is currently used to predict fire behaviour based on meteorological data such as wind velocity, temperature and rainfall. Additionally, the HBV model, used to calculate moisture content in soil layers, serves to predict the ignition risk in Sweden. There are however many
OBJECTIVE: To describe midwives' experiences of providing contraception counselling to immigrant women.METHODS: The study was conducted with a qualitative design, based on interviews followed by inductive content analysis. Ten midwives were interviewed, working at midwife-led prenatal clinics in immigrant-dense areas in southern Sweden.RESULTS: Midwives require knowledge and understanding of cultu
This Letter presents the first measurement of the impact-parameter dependent angular anisotropy in the decay of coherently photoproduced ρ0 mesons. The ρ0 mesons are reconstructed through their decay into pion pairs. The measured anisotropy corresponds to the amplitude of the cos(2ϕ) modulation, where ϕ is the angle between the two vectors formed by the sum and the difference of the transverse mo
BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder with limited knowledge about the normal function and effects of non-pharmacological therapies on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The aim of the study was to analyse the basal diurnal and total secretion of salivary cortisol in short- and long-term aspects of tactile massage (TM).DESIGN: Prospective, Control
We live in an era that suffers from climate change issues, not least disaster risks induced by climate change. While measures, such as proper evacuation plans, are required to reduce the negative impacts of disasters when they hit, actions should also be taken to reduce climate change effects by e.g. increasing the use of renewable energies or proper urban land-use allocation, where climate change
The purpose of the current article is to support the investigation of linguistic relativity in second language acquisition and sketch methodological and theoretical prerequisites toward developing the domain into a full research program. We identify and discuss three theoretical-methodological components that we believe are needed to succeed in this enterprise. First, we highlight the importance o
When freely viewing a scene, the eyes often return to previously visited locations. By tracking eye movements and coregistering eye movements and EEG, such refixations are shown to have multiple roles: repairing insufficient encoding from precursor fixations, supporting ongoing viewing by resampling relevant locations prioritized by precursor fixations, and aiding the construction of memory repres
