Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka huruvida en experimentell manipulation, innehållandes utdrag från media, påverkade skattning av skuldbeläggande av brottsoffer för våldtäkt (victim blaming). Vidare undersöktes om det fanns skillnad i skattning av skuldbeläggande av brottsoffer och sexism hos kvinnor samt män. Slutligen undersöktes sambandet mellan sexism och skuldbeläggning av brottsofThe aim of this study was to investigate whether an experimental manipulation, containing text from the media, affected the level of victim blaming of a victim of sexual assault. We also tested for gender differences in victim blaming. Finally, the relationship between sexism and victim blaming was examined in men. The design was cross-sectional, and participants (n = 331) were randomized to three

Klimatförändringarna påverkar vår värld och det behövs ett mer hållbart samhälle. Flygindustrin är i behov av förändring, men flygmotorer är mycket komplexa och tar tid att utveckla. Termoakustiska instabiliteter har kraften att förstöra en motor, men också att minska miljöpåverkan. Samtidigt möjliggör ökad beräkningskraft i moderna datorkluster att detaljerade simuleringar kan utföras för att stuClimate change is affecting our world and a more sustainable society is needed. The aviation industry is in need of change but aero-engines are very complex and take time to develop. Thermoacoustic instabilities have the power to destroy an engine, but also to reduce the environmental impact. At the same time, increasing computational power allows detailed simulations to be executed in order to st

Human Resource (HR) professionals are often positioned between organizational management and employees, a role that involves balancing competing expectations, responsibilities, and values. While previous research has highlighted HR’s strategic and administrative functions, less attention has been paid to how HR persons themselves experience and manage this intermediary position in everyday practic

Models of physical systems are often expressed as a system of mathematical expressions derived from first principles. However some of the relationships present in a model are more conveniently expressed as a table, i.e. for certain values of independent variables the values of dependent variables are known. This imposes a limitation on the optimization software to be used, since optimization softw

The Swedish government started its initiative for electronic services (e-services) in 2005 to create the infrastructure for information management, optimize the government, and potentially save tax money. The technological paradigm Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) was adopted to facilitate the Swedish government's initiative. The purpose of SOA is to increase efficiency for developing e-ser

Due to a globalized market place, risk management has grown in importance and become a central part of firms’ corporate strategies. The incentives for engaging in risk reducing activities revolve around reduced agency costs and exploitation of financial advantages. According to the precautionary motive for holding cash, firms must ensure stable and secure access to capital for future investments.

The objective was to clarify whether and how it is possible to detect, track and identify with an EO/IR (electro optical/infrared) sensor. Moreover, the sight of robotic system 90 was tested in order to clarify the possibilities of using it as a sensor. The sight has a field of view of 3x4° with the TV camera and 4x6° with the IRV camera. Therefore, the project focused on a moving sensor, in order

I flera sociologiska teorier möter man en människa fångad av förtryckande strukturer utan vidare utrymme för motmakt, i ett Europa präglat av framväxande fascism och nationalism. I den här studien för jag in ett posthumanistiskt perspektiv, hämtat från Gilles Deleuze filosofi och Rosi Braidottis sociala teorier, för att undersöka människans möjligheter att göra politiskt motstånd genom utomparlameIn several sociological theories you are confronted with an individual trapped in oppressive structures without much space for counter-power, in a european context with emerging fascism and nationalism. With this study I introduce a post-humanistic perspective, inspired of Gilles Deleuze's philosophy and Rosi Braidottis social theories, to explore the possibilities for people to do political r

Höjningar och sänkningar av den globala havsnivån under pleistocen och holocen har framför allt styrts av glacio-isostatiska och glacio-eustatiska faktorer, direkt kopplade till de cykliska ökningarna respektive minskningarna av Jordens istäcken. Förutom de dominerande glacio-isostatiska och glacio-eustatiska faktorerna har flera andra komponenter påverkat havsnivån, vilket komplicerar de regionalRise and fall of the global sea level during Pleistocene and Holocene are mainly caused by glacio-isostatic and glacio-eustatic factors directly linked to the cyclic increase and decrease of the Earth’s ice sheets. Apart from the dominating glacio-isostatic and glacio-eustatic factors, several other components have influenced the global sea level, which complicates the regional sea level curves of

Mönsterseparation är en neural mekanism ansvarig för att skapa specifika, ickeöverlappande, minnesspår för stimuli som påminner om varandra. Trots denna mekanism, händer det att minnen överlappar och detta skapar ofta interferens i samband med att vi försöker plocka fram ett specifikt minne. För att reducera interferens vid framplockning aktiveras en annan mekanism, nämligen inhibition av relateraPattern separation is a neural mechanism for creating distinct, non-overlapping, memory traces for similar inputs. Despite this, memories may overlap, and this often produces interference during retrieval of a particular target memory. To reduce interference during selective retrieval another mechanism comes into play, namely inhibition of related, competing memories. This inhibition is believed t

PlotToSat is a tool that uses the Python API of Google Earth Engine (GEE) to solve the problem of creating time-series of Earth Observation (EO) data at multiple plot locations spread out within a landscape. The current version supports Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2. It is a flexible framework though that allows easy addition of EO datasets. Using PlotToSat, we generated a Normalised Difference Vegeta

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

In this paper we study the evolution of radiative fluxes, flux radii and observable dust masses in protoplanetary discs, in order to understand how these depend on the angular momentum budget and on the assumed heat sources. We use a model that includes the formation and viscous evolution of protoplanetary gas discs, together with the growth and radial drift of the dust component. We find that we

How people relate to and see themselves as part of nature relations differs worldwide and often depends on culture and worldviews. Nonetheless, challenging the dominant Euro-Western epistemic domination is needed to attain more equitable and sustainable future visions. This change entails fostering decolonial mediation between different knowledge systems in a context of intersectional difference.

Episodic memories are not static - they shift and reshape as our surroundings evolve. One powerful mechanism for change are prediction errors, which arise when predictions about what is going to happen next do not match the actual input. This study investigated how the size of prediction errors - arising from predictions based on episodic memories - affects recognition memory and neural memory rep

Brief User-Controlled Admission (BUCA) refers to a set of crisis interventions in which the traditional gatekeeping role of the physician is bypassed, allowing service users to independently decide when to access short-term inpatient care through a pre-negotiated agreement. Examples include Brief Admission by self-referral, Patient-Initiated Brief Admission, Patient-Controlled Admission, and Self-

Traceability is a transparent quality index in almost every supply chain. Especially when it comes to highly perishable products, such as dairy, the need for an effective traceability system is unavoidable due to increased fraudulent products, adulteration, excessive additives, and toxic substances. The dairy industry requires an effective traceability system that ensures visibility and transparen

Introduction: A core element of caring science, is for caregivers to understand and collaborate with patients. Previous research shows that women receiving forensic psychiatric care evoke strong emotions among caregivers, but there is little research on the subject, and increased knowledge about caregivers’ experiences of providing care for female patients in forensic psychiatry, and of balancing

BACKGROUND: The tau-PET radiotracer [18F]flortaucipir enables in vivo detection of tau pathology in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and has recently been FDA- and EMA-approved for clinical use. To support its implementation, we assessed tau-PET's positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) for clinico-pathological AD while accounting for age, amyloid-status, and pre-PET diagnostic

There is little consensus on the optimal components of gambling psychological treatments. This study aimed to identify clinical consensus statements regarding the perceived effectiveness of gambling intervention content (change techniques, participant/recruitment characteristics, delivery characteristics, and evaluation characteristics) from a panel of researchers with psychological gambling treat
