Denna uppsats är en kvalitativ aktionsstudie som genom intervjuer undersöker hur lärare och elever på ett estetiskt program resonerar kring och definierar begreppet “personligt uttryck” samt vad de tänker ska utföras för att uppfylla kunskapskravet innehållande begreppet. Detta i syfte att öka kunskapen i huruvida samsyn råder eller inte, öka förståelsen kring hur eleverna definierar och resonerarThis essay is a qualitative action study that through interviews studies how teachers and students in an aesthetics program in highschool defines and thinks about the term “personal expression” and what the student should do to meet the expectations for fulfilling the requirements concerning that particular grade. The purpose is to increase the knowledge about what differences and similarities the

This master’s thesis is about public libraries and how the work they do for children and youth in the summer holidays relates to public policy and reading research. Triangulation of methods is used with literature review, policy analysis, questionnaire survey and interviews. My primary theoretical framework is Carol Bacchi’s ’What’s the problem represented to be’ (WPR) approach, which is also us

In public safety oversight authorities are traditionally assumed responsible of safeguarding operation and promoting safety by defining prescriptions and observing that they are complied with. Regulated entities on their side are assumed responsibility for complying. While this compliance-based approach has contributed to current levels of safety, it is increasingly debated that it has limitatio

Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are stars located in the Galactic halo travelling with extremely high speeds. They are produced when a binary approches the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the Galactic Center (GC) and gets tidally broken up. In this process one of the stars is ejected with high velocity. The angle between the velocity of the incoming binary and the velocity of the ejected HVS is alm

Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects lots of people all around the world. It greatly impacts the health of those with it and places many demands on healthcare services. Early detection of diabetes can significantly improve treatment outcomes, lower the chances of future health issues, and help patients to have a better healthier life. In this study, I evaluated the reproducibility of the per

In 2018, images of migrant children held in cages and sleeping on concrete floors while being held in immigration detention in the United States shocked the world. Within the framework of the zero tolerance policy on immigration mandated by President Trump, thousands of families have been separated at the border. The trauma borne out of these separations was purposefully capitalized upon to serve

The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of wearing a light-weight ice-vest (1 kg, water) on physiological and subjective responses in fire fighter’s work. The experiments were carried out in a climatic chamber, in a container under extreme radiant heat, and during simulated smoke-diving. In addition, the physical cooling effect of the ice-vest was measured with a thermal mannequin.

Hollow fiber supported liquid membranes were applied for the passive extraction of phenoxy acid herbicides from water samples. Polypropylene hollow fiber membranes (240 mu m i.d., 30 mu m wall thickness, 0.05 mu m pore size, 30 cm length) were impregnated with 2.0% tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) in di-n-hexyl ether in the pores of the fiber wall to form a liquid membrane. They were then filled

All people, regardless of gender, are entitled to participate in cultural life. 41% of the permanent actors and actresses at the Royal Dramatic Theater in Stockholm are women. Only 34% of the Malmö Theater roles in 2009 went to actresses. There is a male norm, not only in Swedish society, but also in the Swedish theater. How does this norm look like and what methods are required to change it? Eve

Swedish office buildings of the 60’s present at least 27% higher heating demand than from the current standards foreseen. This underlines their need for energy renovation. Meanwhile, office buildings are occupied during daytime, thus internal and solar gains are in phase. Consequently, such buildings could experience overheating problems. A seasonal adaptable envelope, such as a ventilated double

En ovisshet om ett rättsfaktums existens löser domstolarna oftast med att ena parten åläggs en bevisbörda. Det finns ett antal olika teorier och principer för bevisbördeplacering. När ett rättsfaktum utgörs av ett visst påstått avtalsinnehåll har HD emellertid i vissa fall, utan motivering, använt sig av avtalstolkning istället för en bevisbörderegel. Syftet med förevarande uppsats är därför dels The Swedish courts usually solve uncertainties regarding dispositive facts by using the burden of proof. There is no comprehensive, universal principle that is applicable in all cases; instead there are a number of different theories and principles. When a dispositive fact is made up of a certain alleged contractual content, the Swedish Supreme Court sometimes interprets the contract instead of u

The aim of this study is to examine the spillover effects of diversity in insect pollinated plants in the vicinity of semi-natural grasslands, if the biodiversity in plants is increased as a result of being close to pastures and if a local environmental support has an effect on its surroundings. As agricultural intensification reduces biodiversity and contributes to habitat degradation, studies on

Author: Josephin Brecht Title: “A second chance in life” A qualitative study based on the former criminals’ perspective on their opportunity for a life free of criminality The aim of this study has been to examine what former criminals' experienced being the most successful factors when trying to leave behind a lifestyle of crimes. I also wanted to analyse how their opinion on the matter mi

Aim: The increasing spread of vector-borne diseases has resulted in severe health concerns for humans, domestic animals and wildlife, with changes in land use and the introduction of invasive species being among the main possible causes for this increase. We explored several ecological drivers potentially affecting the local prevalence and richness of avian malaria parasite lineages in native and

INTRODUCTION: The prognosis for patients with melanoma has improved due to better treatments in recent years and updated tools to accurately predict an individual's risk are warranted. This study aims to describe a prognostic instrument for patients with cutaneous melanoma and its potential as a clinical device for treatment decisions.METHODS: Patients with localised invasive cutaneous melanoma di

A crisis refers to some sort of disruption of established practices, routines, or procedures occurring whenever a risk has been realized (Battistelli & Galantino 2019; Beck 1986, 2006). For social actors exposed to crisis in the labor market, this means that they will have to navigate some sort of uncertainty, trying to respond to the consequences unfolding in their surroundings as well as in

Objective To explore timing in relation to all types of adverse events (AEs), severity and preventability for patients undergoing acute and elective hip arthroplasty. Design A multicentre cohort study using retrospective record review with Global Trigger Tool methodology in combination with data from several registers. Setting 24 hospitals in 4 major regions of Sweden. Participants Patients ≥18 ye

Background: Tamoxifen is an established treatment for breast cancer, but its long-term effects on survival and on secondary cancers are not fully evaluated. Material and methods: We studied 30 years outcome of 4124 postmenopausal patients who were randomized to receive (totally) two or five years of adjuvant tamoxifen. Results: After 5 years of follow-up, when tamoxifen treatment was finished in b

Background and aims: This multicentre European study evaluated, in a young-to-middle-aged healthy population without carotid atherosclerosis, the gender-related differences in carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and its short-term (3-year) progression, and whether these differences are related to different vascular ageing rate, cardiovascular risk profile or different susceptibility to family pre

Background: Traumatic brain injury causes morbidity, mortality, and at least 2,500,000 yearly emergency department visits in the USA. Computerized tomography of the head is the gold standard to detect traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. Some are not diagnosed at the first scan, and they are denoted “delayed intracranial hemorrhages. ” To detect these delayed hemorrhages, current guidelines for head
