Psykossjukdomar, framför allt schizofreni, anses vara en av de mest krävande sjukdomar för anhö-riga, dels i termer av daglig assistans, dels dess negativa påverkan på hälsa och livskvalitet. Det är idag ovanligt att informell vård inkluderas i hälsoekonomiska analyser. I detta kapitel granskar vi litteraturen på detta område och har funnit sex kostnadsstudier i en europeisk kontext men inte någon
Extending the possibilities for health-service consumers to choose among providers has been an important objective on the political agenda in Sweden and elsewhere. Little is known, however, about individual and group preferences concerning the demand for choices. It is often implicitly assumed that individuals can be treated as a group with similar values and demands, but is this true? To what ext
Agricultural landscapes have changed fast in Europe, which has led to steep declines in farmland biodiversity. While this has differentially impacted “farmland species”, some of these seem to be able to use alternative man-made open habitats in forests, such as forest clear-cuts and powerline rights-of-way. We investigated the use of clear-cuts by two historically declining farmland birds, the Yel
Agricultural management practices and extreme weather events associated with climate change can influence the diversity and abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) with potential consequences for crop production. However, the importance of the interactive effects of long-term agricultural management and extreme weather events on AMF communities in agricultural soils is not yet fully explor
Microbes govern most soil functions, but investigation of these processes at the scale of their cells has been difficult to accomplish. Here we incubate microfabricated, transparent ‘soil chips’ with soil, or bury them directly in the field. Both soil microbes and minerals enter the chips, which enables us to investigate diverse community interdependences, such as inter-kingdom and food-web intera
Pollen analysis is an important tool in many fields, including pollination ecology, paleoclimatology, paleoecology, honey quality control, and even medicine and forensics. However, labour‐intensive manual pollen analysis often constrains the number of samples processed or the number of pollen analysed per sample. Thus, there is a desire to develop reliable, high‐throughput, automated systems. We p
Small remnants of non-arable habitat within the farmland mosaic are considered important for the conservation of farmland biodiversity, but their contribution to landscape-scale species richness is poorly understood. In the present study, we examined the relative contributions of different habitat types to the landscape-scale species richness of vascular plants within farmland of varying landscape
I den här studien blir det kastat ljus på de mediepolitiska avtalen i Danmark och hur det kulturella ramverket för public service-mediet DR blir ändrat mellan dessa. Vi går från ett brett avtal till ett smalt, från allt till nischat och från multikultur till monokultur. Som titeln "Maktkampen om public service - ett DR drama i två episoder" antyder så kan det skönjas en ideologisk kamp m
The European furniture industry is driven to change from linear to circular business models. Product-service systems (PSS) are considered to offer promising solutions that may enable the transition towards the circular economy. In the furniture industry, one example of a product-service system is the furnishing rental service. However, understanding of how such a service could be developed and imp
This bachelor’s thesis explores the effectiveness of cybersecurity training programs within a Swedish financial institution, utilizing the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as the guiding theoretical framework. The research employed a qualitative approach, conducting an online survey with 28 bank employees to gain in-depth insights into their experiences and perceptions. The findings reveal several
Nova Lund köpcentrum har årligen närmare 3 miljoner besökare. Här finns stora publika ytor där allmänheten kan röra sig kombinerat med ytor som vanligtvis enbart nyttjas av verksamheterna i fastigheten. Med stora öppna ytor och volymer finns det en utmaning i att göra det tydligt för allmänheten var möjlighet till utrymning finns i händelse av brand. Hänsyn måste tas till bland annat besökarnas peNova Lund Shopping mall is frequently visited by a large number of people, up to 3 million every year. With large areas where the visitors can move freely, combined with spaces commonly used by staff members, there will be challenges regarding making the egress routes both visible and understood – in case of fire. The mobility, perception, and knowledge of the guests, as well as the employees, mus
In a rapidly changing world, it is of fundamental importance to understand processes constraining or facilitating adaptation through microevolution. As different traits of an organism covary, genetic correlations are expected to affect evolutionary trajectories. However, only limited empirical data are available. We investigate the extent to which multivariate constraints affect the rate of adapta
Birds from semi-arid regions may suffer dehydration during hot, dry seasons with low food availability. During this period, both energetic costs and water requirements for thermoregulation increase, limiting the scope of activity. For granivorous birds feeding on dry seeds, this is a major challenge and availability of water may affect the value of food. Water availability could (1) increase the v

This study analyses walking in three different city districts to see if there is any difference in walking that can be related to the structure of the district. The three districts analysed vary in structure, with one of them being historical, while the others being built in the 1970’s. With the help of travel data, walking in the three districts are analysed regarding trip distance, distribution
For a very long time the municipal fire services in Sweden have been formed due to tradition and different laws. This design does not take the actual risks in the municipal into consideration. The purpose of this report is therefore to create a model for designing municipal fire services. This model will take more factors into consideration than the population structure as has been done before.
Since the early 1980’s and up until today many organizations have realized the importance of paying more and more attention to the effective strategic planning of the information systems resources. There are several reasons for this that where recognized by Pyburn (1983), one was the high speed of technological progress both in regards to IT and Telecoms facilities. Another key factor, which is ve
The construction industry accounts for a large proportion of the world’s total anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, CO2 among others. As a part of the effort to combat this are environmental certifications which have become increasingly more numerous and more frequent in use. This is partly because consumers have become more environmentally aware and motivated to pay more for products and
