Mot bakgrund av utvecklingen på bostadsmarknaden under senare år har det blivit uppenbart att konsumentskyddet vid köp av nyproducerade bostadsrätter är otillräckligt. Lagstiftningen erbjuder inte ett rättsligt skydd i samma utsträckning som på andra konsumentmarknader. Med beaktande av att nyproducerade bostadsrätter ofta står för stora ekonomiska värden innebär det att transaktionen kan få en av
Nitrogen (N) is a key element in terrestrial ecosystems as it influences both plant growth and plant interactions with the atmosphere. Accounting for carbon–nitrogen interactions has been found to alter future projections of the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle substantially. Dynamic vegetation models (DVMs) aim to accurately represent both natural vegetation and managed land, not only from a carbon c
Abstract Objective. To explore factors and circumstances contributing to prudent antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections in primary care. Design. Two focus groups representing rural and urban areas. A semi-structured interview guide with open-ended questions and an editing analysis style was used. They were examined to identify meaning units that were sorted into categories in an i
Global climate variability affects important local hydro-meteorological variables like precipitation and temperature. The Southern Oscillation (SO) is an easily quantifiable major driving force that gives impact on regional and local climate. The relationships between SO and local climate variation are, however, characterized by strongly nonlinear processes. Due to this, teleconnections between gl
We investigated the relationship between nitric oxide (NO) and Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA) in the gill of anadromous Atlantic salmon. Cells containing NO-producing enzymes were revealed by means of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) immunocytochemistry and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPHd) histochernistry, which can be used as an indicator of NOS activity, i.e. NO production. Antibo
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides a sensitive tool for examining all the structures involved in the osteoarthritis (OA) process. While much of the MRI literature previously focussed on cartilage, there is increasing research on whole-organ evaluation and including features such as synovitis, bone marrow edema, and meniscal and ligamentous pathology. The aim of this session at the Outcome M
This essay attempts to shed light on why aggressive ideas gain support within established western states. To do that it attempts to answer the question why the armed conflict against Iraq received such varied support during the first four months of 2003 within the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, France and Spain. A comparative study indicates that the justifications for the armed con
This qualitative study investigates how language barriers affect foreign-born women's ability to seek and receive support and protection from violence in domestic relationships in Sweden.

The findings reveal that
In recent years the importance of financial inclusion for economic growth has been thoroughly discussed. Particularly, the impact of mobile money in the context of developing economies has risen in prominence. This thesis adds to existing literature by exploring the how mobile money increases financial inclusion by conceptualizing it as a process with relative stages. Different theories have been
Land-use changes have led to a decline in suitable habitats for bumblebees, which may affect pollination of crops and wild flowers. Urban green areas such as parks and private gardens have the potential to favor bumblebees and it is thus important to understand how such areas should be designed. The aim with this study is to investigate what is needed to favor bumblebees in the urban environment,
Psykologisk kunskap har mycket att erbjuda när det kommer till att förbättra utbildningsresultat och elevers välbefinnande i skolan. Undervisning kan därmed dra nytta av att vägledas av psykologisk kunskap i större utsträckning. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka skolpsykologers (N = 117) uppfattning om hur psykologiska koncept relaterade till lärande används av lärare, samt att utvärdera sPsychological knowledge has a lot to offer when it comes to improving educational outcomes and student well-being in schools, therefore teaching and learning could be guided by psychological knowledge to a larger extent. The aims of this study were to examine school psychologists’ (N = 117) assessments of how psychological constructs related to learning are being used by teachers in Swedish school

Det här examensarbetet utvecklar ett koncept för infästning av fenor på jetboards som inte intränger på befintliga patent. Det resulterande konceptet medför handlingsfrihet (FTO) och följaktligen tillåter produktion av fenor med originell design. FTO innebär möjligheten till att producera och sälja en produkt utan rättsligt ansvar gentemot ägare av patent. Examensarbetet presenterar och diskuterarThis master thesis generates a concept for the means of attaching fins onto jetboards without infringing on existing patents. The resulting concept establishes freedom to operate (FTO) and enables production of fins with original designs. FTO meaning the possibility of producing and selling a product without legal liability to any patent holders. The thesis further presents and discusses user need
Children affected by the multisystem genetic disorder Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome look prematurely aged, suffer from elderly-related conditions and die during adolescence due to cardiovascular complications. The cause of the disease is single point gain-of-function mutations in the LMNA gene, which encodes the lamin A and lamin C proteins, major components of the nuclear lamina. These mut
