Verbal forms of communication seem to still be that dominant that other forms of expression are far from obvious to use. This study is based on interviews with ten caregivers whose work is governed by the Law on Support and Service for People with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS). In their daily work at group homes or in day service, they meet people with intellectual disabilities who mainly r

The aim of this thesis is to examine intimate partner violence (IPV) towards pregnant women, with the ambition of fulfilling the gap of available knowledge about this complex subject area, in the Chinese context. The specific objects are: 1) to assess the risk factors and forms associated with intimate partner violence during pregnancy 2) to explore the social dynamics and gender power relati

Inflödet av textiler så som kläder och hemtextilier till Sverige 2014 var 128 000 ton och dessa textiler går främst till försäljning via handeln (Naturvårdsverket, 2015). Detta innebär att importen av nya textiler 2014 var 13,1 kilogram per person (Naturvårdsverket, 2015). Utav dessa slängs 8 kilogram i hushållsavfallet och går till energiutvinning genom förbränning (Naturvårdsverket, 2015). MängdThe Swedish consumers consumed in 2014 13.1 kilo textilies, of this 8 kilogram was dicarded via household waste and used for energy production. European Union’s waste hierarchy avocates a higher rate of reuse and recycling for a more sustainable textile flow. The Swedish goverment is, therefor, working toward new laws and guidelines which can lead to an expanded responsibility for the municipaliti

By examining previous research this paper develops three hypotheses to understand how political and economic uncertainty can affect interpersonal trust: (1) a negative linear covariation, (2) a positive linear covariation and (3) a curve linear covariation. Using the World Uncertainty Index as an operationalization for uncertainty and World Value Survey for interpersonal trust a regression model w

SiS särskilda ungdomshem är institutioner där barn och unga i behov av särskild tillsyn placeras, till största del sker detta med stöd av lagen (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga (LVU). Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda i vilken utsträckning rätten till hälsa enligt artikel 24 i Förenta nationernas konvention om barnets rättigheter (barnkonventionen), är uppfylld för flickor med SiS youth homes are institutions which provides compulsory care for young people with psychosocial problems, with legal support usually found in the act (SFS 1990:52) with special provisions on the care of young people (LVU). The purpose of the thesis is to examine whether the right to health as established in art. 24 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, is respected for girls with men

This thesis explores the role of institutional structures and farming practices in enhancing food security and resilience in Sweden, particularly in the context of crisis preparedness. Using institutional theory with a focus on DiMaggio and Powell's concept of institutional isomorphism, the study examines how Swedish authorities in the food sector respond to both formal and informal pressures

This study provides a comprehensive sedimentological and geochemical analysis of the Late Quaternary Köttsjön sequence in central Sweden. Its aim is to identify the processes and transport mechanisms involved in till formation, and to investigate ice dynamics and sediment provenance. Ultimately, the research contributes to a better understanding of glacial dynamics and palaeoenvironmental evolutio

En grundvattenundersökning i ett område präglat av vattenrelaterade problem. Staden Cochabamba i Bolivia står inför flera vattenrelaterade utmaningar såsom brist på ytvatten, en ökande vattenanvändning, urbanisering och en sjunkande grundvattennivå. Samtidigt råder det en brist på kunskap angående de processer som påverkar grundvattnet i området. Något som detta examensarbete ämnar att förändra. The Central Valley of Cochabamba is located in the Andes mountain range, Bolivia. This region experiences several water related challenges such as a scarcity of surface water, an increasing water demand, a growing urbanization in groundwater recharge areas, and a declining water table due to intensive groundwater extraction. The valley has been influenced by both alluvial and fluvial depositions t

Ett offentligt erbjudande till aktieägarna i ett noterat bolag, om att överlåta samtliga eller en del av aktierna i bolaget, kallas för ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande. I Sverige är de flesta buden förhandlade redan innan ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande påbörjas. Det förekommer dock att bud riktas mot målbolag där budet inte är förankrat hos målbolagsstyrelsen. Vid ett så kallat fientligt bud reA public bid to the shareholders of a listed company, to transfer all or a part of the company’s shares, is called a takeover bid. In Sweden, most bids are negotiated before a takeover bid is initiated. However, bids are sometimes made against target companies where the bid is not supported by the target company’s board of directors. In the event of a so-called hostile takeover bid, the target com

Att fånga upp koldioxid från industriella utsläpp eller direkt från atmosfären och omvandla det till mer värdefulla föreningar, kallat "carbon capture and utilization", är en intressant metod för motverkandet av den globala uppvärmningen. Med en katalysator kan koldioxid och vätgas användas för att tillverka metanol som är användbart som bränsle och i kemikalieindustin. En nyligen upptäcNickel gallium alloys have recently been discovered as a promising material for the catalyzation of methanol synthesis from carbon dioxide. Due to the novel nature of the material system for this purpose, there is a large potential for optimization in terms of catalytic activity and selectivity for methanol. Optimization through engineering of phases and facets in such materials is often difficult

Väderprognoser är av stor betydelse för till exempel flygrutter, militära operationer och sjöfart. Flera organisationer tillhandahåller numera inte bara sina väderprognoser öppet, utan delar även med sig av sina prognosdata för nedladdning. Teknisk utveckling och ett större utbud av öppna data möjliggör användning av väder- och prognosdata för både privata och kommersiella ändamål. Egna programmerWeather forecasts are of great significance for instance in planning flight routes, military operations, and seafare. Many organizations today openly provide, not only their forecasts, but their raw data as well. Technological development and a greater availability of open data ensures that both weather- and forecast data can be used for both private and commercial purposes. However, customized ap

The fishing industry is vital for global food security, providing nutrient-rich food, supporting livelihoods, and contributing to economic growth. As the global population continues to grow, it is essential to approach fishing in a sustainable way and preserve marine ecosystems. The United Nations has recognized overfishing as a significant issue. For 2017, it was estimated that about 34% of fish

Uppsatsen behandlar hur skadebegränsningsplikten ska tillämpas vid personskador. Skadebegränsningsplikten är en etablerad allmän rättsprincip som medför att en skadelidande ska vidta rimliga åtgärder för att begränsa sin skada. Principen åberopas ofta av skadevållare och försäkringsbolag, men dess tillämpning vid personskador är inte helt klarlagd. Det saknas relevanta domstolsavgöranden och rättsThis thesis examines how the duty to mitigate loss should be applied in personal injury cases. The duty is a well-established legal principle requiring the injured party to take reasonable steps to limit their damage. While often invoked by defendants and insurers, its application to personal injury remains underdeveloped, with limited case law and much of the legal development occurring through b

Denna uppsats undersöker huruvida utvecklare av generativ artificiell intelligens (GENAI) system kan, och bör, erkännas som upphovsmän enligt EU:s upphovsrättsregler för de bilder som genereras med deras system. Teknikens framsteg under det senaste årtiondet har omdefinierat de traditionella föreställningarna om kreativitet och upphovsrätt på sätt som den nuvarande lagstiftningen aldrig avsåg. GenThis thesis examines whether the developers of generative artificial intelligence (GENAI) systems can, and should, be recognised as authors under EU copyright framework for the images generated by their systems. Technological advances over the past decade have redefined traditional conceptions of creativity and copyright in ways that current legislation never anticipated. This study addresses a si

Det första av mina två syften var att undersöka huruvida det finns en könsrelaterad diskrepans gällande operasångares försörjningsmöjligheter. Jag samlade in empiri om antalet arbetstillfällen per röstfack och könsfördelningen vid operautbildningar, samt genomförde en enkätundersökning om hur tidigare studenter vid Sveriges operahögskolor försörjer sig. Slutsatsen kunde dras att det finns en stor The first of my two purposes was to investigate whether there is a gender disparity in the possibilities to make a living as an opera singer. I collected empirical data on the number of jobs per fach and the gender breakdown of students at opera schools, and conducted a survey on how former students at Sweden's opera schools supported themselves. I concluded that there is a large disparity to

Background: In recent decades, virtual care has emerged as a promising option to support primary care delivery. However, despite the potential, adoption rates remained low. With the outbreak of COVID-19, it has suddenly been pushed to the forefront of care delivery. As we progress into the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need and opportunity to review the impact remote care had in

For the 2012 Pedagogical Inspiration Conference for teachers at the Faculties of Humanities and Theology at Lund University, my course team and I presented a paper entitled “Interdisciplinarity, group responsibility and conflict as resources for learning”. The paper discussed our experiences with The City: Boundary Transgressions and Visual Expressions (KOVR02), an interdisciplinary course given i
