En webbenkät utformades för att i explorativt syfte undersöka barnönskan, föräldraskap och livstillfredsställelse hos transpersoner i Sverige. Sammanlagt 154 inkomna svar analyserades med hjälp av envägs mellangrupps variansanalys (ANOVA). Resultaten visade bland annat att de respondenter som hade egna barn skattade högre livskvalitet och psykisk hälsa, upplevde i större utsträckning att de kunde

Systematic evaluation of child and adolescent psychiatric outpatient treatment is important but time-consuming. The aim of this paper was to study whether Interactive Voice Response (IVR) is a more effective method than a questionnaire sent by post when following up outpatient treatment in child and adolescent psychiatry. Eighty patients were recruited from a child and adolescent psychiatric outpa

The energy extraction efficiency is a figure of merit for a free-electron laser (FEL). It can be enhanced by the technique of undulator tapering, which enables the sustained growth of radiation power beyond the initial saturation point. In the development of a single-pass x-ray FEL, it is important to exploit the full potential of this technique and optimize the taper profile aw(z). Our approach t

This paper analyses the role of university knowledge in the innovation processes of cultural industries. Most studies of cultural industries highlight the importance of locally clustered firms in innovation processes. Those that analyze university-industry collaboration focus on technological development or industrial R&D, but neglect cultural industries as objects of analysis. The paper addre
