Title: Artistic methods for persons with dysfunctions. The idea to the paper was born in my work, as a pedagogue, with young persons with dysfunctions. My pedagogic method is eurhythmics but I wanted to examine in what other ways you could work with artistic expression in similar areas such as circus, dance therapy and psychodrama. These areas were chosen because they have components that are int

The thesis circles around Social Media, B2B Brand Building and Business Performance Measurements. In the intersection between these a knowledge gap was identified. The following research questions were formed: How should companies go about when implementing Social Media? How should the performance of Social Media engagement be measured? The urgency for answering these questions was identified. Th

Idag talas det allt mer om de klimatutmaningarna vi står inför. Utmaningarna innebär ytterligare insatser för att det ska vara möjligt att uppnå den utsläppsminskning som krävs. Det nationella miljökvalitetsmålet Begränsad klimatpåverkan ska verka vägledande i Sveriges miljöarbete för alla samhällsnivåer, inklusive Sveriges kommuner. Därför har kommunerna en central roll och ett ansvar att bryta nThe challenge of climate change is highly contemporary topic. Further efforts are required to enable the adequate reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The national environment quality objective Begränsad klimatpåverkan (limited climate influence) is aimed to act as guidance for Sweden’s environmental efforts on all levels, including local governments. Local governments have a central role and re

Forest Canopy Height (FCH) is a crucial parameter that offers valuable insights into forest structure. Spaceborne LiDAR missions provide accurate FCH measurements, but a significant challenge is their point-based measurements lacking spatial continuity. This study integrated ICESat-2’s ATL08-derived FCH values with multi-temporal and multi-source remote sensing (RS) datasets to generate continuous

Background/Objectives: Extensive research has emphasised the persistent challenges and failures in providing hospitalised patients with fundamental evidence-based nursing care, often resulting in grave consequences for patient safety. Recommendations from implementation research indicate that a tailored theory- and research-based implementation strategy targeting contextual determinants can optim

Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the role of managers and employees with an assigned responsibility (i.e. inspirers) when integrating recovery-enhancing activities into everyday work in a primary health care setting. Background: The possibility of recovery during the workday is essential for employee wellbeing. However, the literature on workplace interventions focusing on recovery is sca

Absolute environmental sustainability assessments quantify the environmental impacts of human activities in relation to ecological carrying capacities. Such assessments necessitate the application of sharing principles to allocate shares of carrying capacity to actors and activities at different scales, including products, companies, sectors, and countries. This can help decision-makers set target

The recital is focused on my research involving contemporary voice. My approach to singing research is becoming more systematic as the result of beginning to work on concepts central to the extra-normal voice, term coined by Michael Edward Edgerton. This approach to voice is based on voice science, the aims of which are to investigate the boundaries and/or limits of vocal sound production. In this

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: In order to investigate the relation between personal functional capacity and the physical housing environment during the aging process, the aim of this study was to give a long-term description of person-environmental fit (P-E fit) problems in terms of housing accessibility and ADL dependence among older adults, and to study their relationships at three points in time. METHOD

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to describe, analyze and explain the level of compliance of accounting practices with legislation and generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) within the Swedish water and sewerage sector. Design/methodology/approach: The empirical data are based on a document study of the annual full cost accounting reports for the financial year 2010. Weobtained complete

This study describes and analyses how 38 predialytic uremic patients perceived their sense of well-being, functional ability, level of anxiety and sense of coherence. The patients in this study reported decreased sense of well-being, considerable functional disabilities, and a high level of anxiety when compared to a healthy reference group. These observations were independent of laboratory data w

Teledermoscopy (TDS) offers an efficient alternative to face-to-face assessment of suspicious skin lesions. Although diagnostic accuracy in TDS is relatively high, further improvement is desirable to reduce the risk of overlooked skin cancers and unnecessary interventions of benign lesions. Image enhancement (IE), i.e. digital modification of different parameters of an image, may potentially impro

Background: Recent advances have highlighted the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) systems to assist clinicians with administrative and clinical tasks, but concerns regarding biases, lack of regulation, and potential technical issues pose significant challenges. The lack of a clear definition of AI, combined with limited focus on qualitative research exploring clinicians' perspectives, has

INTRODUCTION: Health promotion in everyday settings is of great importance for both individual health and organizational sustainability. A settings-based approach emphasizes how social, physical, and organizational contexts shape the conditions for health. Central principles in health promotion are participation, empowerment, and person-centeredness, which emphasize the active role of the person o

Over the past 50 years there has been an unprecedented increase in pollution globally. Population growth and higher standards of living have resulted in increases in global consumption facilitated by industrialisation and globalisation of goods and services thus resulting in the release of environmental pollutants on a mass scale. This article analyses the effects and consequences of pollution on

In recent years, WUI fire evacuation models have started to be developed. Several now exist, although they are primarily research tools unable to be applied in practice or commercially available tools with limited functionality. For this step – moving from research to practice – such models need to build their credibility through data for their development, testing and application. The WUI-NITY to
