Pengar på hjärnan: en tvärsnittsstudie om sambanden mellan privatekonomiska problem och psykisk ohälsa, ensamhet och coping.

Många svenskar upplever just nu en ekonomiskt ansträngd situation. Att ha privatekonomiska problem har i tidigare forskning visat sig ha kopplingar till psykisk ohälsa och suicidalt beteende. Mot denna bakgrund är det angeläget att vidare undersöka de faktorer som är associerade med privatekonomiska problem. Syftet med denna tvärsnittsstudie var att undersöka om finansiell förmåga, psykisk ohälsa,Many Swedish people are living under the weight of a financially precarious situation. Previous research has illuminated the steep cost of experiencing financial difficulties, finding relationships to psychological distress and even suicidal behaviors. Against this background, it is important to further examine the economic and psychological factors associated with financial difficulties. The pres

Psykologstudenters inställning till exponering som behandlingsmetod och syn på att integrera exponering inom psykodynamisk terapi

Exponering är en av de mest empiriskt validerade behandlingsmetoderna inom kognitiv beteendeterapi (KBT) och har visat sig vara effektiv vid flera ångestrelaterade tillstånd. Trots detta visar forskning att metoden ofta möter motstånd bland terapeuter, vilket kan bidra till en underanvändning i praktiken. Det är oklart i vilken utsträckning ett sådant motstånd finns bland psykologstudenter. SyftetExposure is one of the most empirically validated treatment methods within cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and is effective in treating several types of anxiety. Despite this, research shows that the method often faces resistance among therapists, contributing to underutilization in clinical practice. It is unclear to what extent this resistance exists among psychology students. This explorati

Automation of Plate Handling in Heat Exchanger Assembly: Decision Logic and System Design

The interest of implementing automated production has grown over the years in the industry of manufacturing. Replacing manual tasks with automated solutions has several advantages, such as improved efficiency, increased safety and better quality standards. Alfa Laval raised the challenge to find an automated solution for a currently manual process. The master thesis addresses the problem with the

Construction of a new chassis for external control

Värmepumpar spelar en central roll i omställningen till ett mer hållbart och energieffektivt samhälle. En värmepump utnyttjar energin som lagras i luft, vatten och mark för att värma våra hem med betydligt lägre klimatpåverkan än traditionella uppvärmningsmetoder. Utöver kärnfunktionen, ytterligare funktioner kan tilläggas genom att förse värmepumpen med extra moduler, såsom en extern styrmodul, sThis master’s thesis investigated the development of a new enclosure for an external module used to extend the functionality of heat pumps manufactured by NIBE. The current enclosure is a purchased standard enclosure that fulfils its function but is not optimized for NIBE’s specified requirements. It requires additional completion in term of steel mounting plate which increases the cost, weight, a

Föräldrars upplevelser av vården vid deras barns insjuknande i diabetes typ 1 - En intervjustudie

Bakgrund: I Sverige insjuknar årligen omkring 900 barn i typ 1-diabetes, en diagnos som innebär en omfattande livsomställning för hela familjen. Tidigare forskning visar att föräldrar ofta befinner sig i kris vid diagnos och har stort behov av både emotionellt och praktiskt stöd. Det är därför viktigt att belysa hur vården upplevs ur föräldrarnas perspektiv. Syfte: Att belysa föräldrars upplevels

Biodegradation of Polylactic Acid: Enzymatic and physicochemical approach along with ecotoxicological assessment in Daphnia magna

Plastföroreningar är ett av dagens största miljöproblem. Även om många biologiskt nedbrytbara plaster har utvecklats för att minska denna påverkan, bryts de inte alltid ned effektivt i verkliga miljöer. En av de mest använda biologiskt nedbrytbara plasterna är PLA (polylaktid), som ofta förekommer i förpackningar, 3D-utskrifter och engångsartiklar. Trots att PLA är märkt som biologiskt nedbrytbartIntroduction: Biodegradable plastics such as polylactic acid (PLA) are increasingly used as sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics, yet their degradation in natural environments remains inefficient. Background: Although enzymes such as cutinases can hydrolyse ester bonds in PLA, their behaviour in the presence of PLA nanoparticles and potential inhibitory effects are not well understood

A Theory of Leadership Meta-Talk and the Talking-Doing Gap

We identify managers' meta-level talk about the positive purpose, meaning, and significance of their actions as an overlooked type of leadership behaviour and call it leadership meta-talk. We outline why leadership meta-talk is not necessarily truthful or deceptive, but selective and loosely coupled with leadership practice. We discuss varieties of leadership meta-talk, namely aspirational, sub-te

Verbal memory in major depressive disorder in a long-term perspective : a five-year longitudinal study of first episode patients

Introduction: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with cognitive impairment, including verbal memory. Limited knowledge exists following memory performance in first episode (FE) MDD. This study investigated verbal memory, depressive symptoms, and relapse in FE MDD over five years, from the trait, state, and scar perspectives. These perspectives suggests that deficits in memory either pre

Prevalence of Hidradenitis Suppurativa in Lund and Gothenburg, Sweden : An Analysis from the Global Hidradenitis Suppurativa Atlas Initiative

Critical Management Studies : From One-Dimensional Critique to Three-Dimensional Scepticism

Critical Management Studies (CMS) has largely relied on one-dimensional critique which focus on the negation of a dominant social order. This strong focus has made the field increasingly stale and preoccupied with standard objects for critique. This paper suggests that if CMS is to move beyond these problems, it needs to develop three-dimensional thinking, including understanding, questioning, and

Innovative radiotherapy approaches

Radiotherapy (RT) with concurrent chemotherapy is the standard of care for squamous-cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCCAC), achieving favorable results in terms of local control and overall survival. However, locoregional failure remains common despite advances such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), which reduces toxicity but has limitations. Despite the benefits of IMRT, frequent and

Floating charges in the Nordic countries

This chapter analyses floating charges in the Nordic countries, focusing on Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Nordic property laws are known for their functional approach, and while property law rules in the Nordic countries are generally fragmentary, Nordic security rights laws are more codified. The four Nordic countries all have floating charges (or equivalent security rights). The chapter d
