Departing from the high level of health issues that exists among LGBTIQ youth in Sweden, this study examines how pedagogues in preschools in Malmö implement LGBTIQ issues based on queer theory, intersectionality and critical race studies. The research takes a qualitative approach and uses material from interviews and participatory observations conducted at two preschools in Malmö. The material is

Bakgrund: Omvårdnad är avgörande för patienters upplevelser av en akutmottagning. Brister i omvårdnaden kan leda till onödigt lidande för patienter. Hendersons teori utgår från människans behov av omvårdnad, vilket är relevant utifrån patienters erfarenheter av att besöka en akutmottagning. Syfte: Att beskriva patienters erfarenhet av att vårdas på en akutmottagning. Metod: Litteraturstudie med in

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur verksamma svensklärare på gymnasieskolans yrkesprogram arbetar med läsning och skönlitteratur. För att uppnå syftet och besvara frågeställningarna genomfördes kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra svensklärare där de fick beskriva och diskutera hur de betraktar skönlitteraturens roll, samt vilka val de gör gällande läsning av skönlitteratur oc

Syfte: Nike lanserade år 2018 en kampanj vid namnet Dream Crazy som skapade kontroversiella reaktioner i sociala medier samt en hög grad av mediaexponering. Denna kvalitativa studie syftar till att ta reda på vad svenska studenter med åldern 19-24 tänker kring den politiska aspekten av den här kampanjen, och hur mycket det påverkar deras köpbeslut. Metod: Materialet samlades in genom djupgående pePurpose: In 2018 Nike launched an advertisement campaign called “Dream Crazy” that provoked controversial reactions in social media and large coverage in the media. This qualitative study aims to find out what Swedish students aged 19-24 think of specifically the political aspect of that campaign, and how much it matters and influences their decision making when choosing products. Methodology: Dat

This thesis aims to look into how some social workers in Sweden view their work with youths having sex for compensation with regards to the feminist ideas that the law on buying sex expresses. Swedish studies have shown that most of the youths having sex for compensation started when they were 13-14 years old. Previous literature and studies state that youths having sex for compensation often have

Idag byggs allt fler hus i trä tack vare de många fördelarna trä har som byggnadsmaterial. Dels är miljöpåverkan mycket mindre i jämförelse med andra material som betong,dels är det ett väldigt lätt byggnadsmaterial. Den stora nackdelen med träkonstruktioner är dock dess akustiska egenskaper. Det är ofta svårt att uppnå de ljud krav som ställs på byggnader när man väljer en träkonstruktion, vilketConstructing buildings with wood brings many advantages, especially regarding environmental aspects, which has brought an up-rise in these types of structures. However, one of the main issues regarding wooden structures is its tendency to perform poorly acoustically in lower frequencies compared to heavier structures. This often leads to unwanted noise levels which could be avoided in earlier desi

Syfte: Bidra till fördjupade kunskaper om hur företag kan använda sig av semiotiska resurser i bilder för att positionera sig som hållbara Metod: Uppsatsen är en kvalitativ fallstudie med semiotisk metod Teoretiska perspektiv: Uppsatsen utgår från teorier om hållbarhet, semiotik samt visuell kommunikation Empiri: Studien granskar bilder från de tre fallorganisationerna Ikea, Swedfund och Ete

Every year in Sweden approximately 50 people die due to work related injuries. The development of non deadly injuries at work, however, has been varying. Between 1980 and 2008 it's been decreasing while, during the last 10 years, the number of injuries has instead increased. It is of interest to see why the number of occupational injuries has been increasing as well as understanding if there e

[Context & motivation] For market-driven software product developing organizations operating on a competitive open market, it is important to plan the product’s releases so that they can reach the market as early as possible with a competitive level of quality compared to its competitors' products. Hence, quality requirements can be seen as a key competitive advantage. The QUPER model was deve

The Tumbleweed (TW) is a concept for an artificial, tri-pedal, protein-based motor designed to move unidirectionally along a linear track by a diffusive tumbling motion. Artificial motors offer the unique opportunity to explore how motor performance depends on design details in a way that is open to experimental investigation. Prior studies have shown that TW's ability to complete many successive

Understanding receptor activation is important for disease intervention. Activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase c-KIT is involved in numerous diseases including melanoma, mastocytosis, multiple myeloma and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. To better understand the regulation of activation, we studied the two c-KIT isoforms, c-KIT(-) and c-KIT(+) which differ by a tetrapeptide insert GNNK, locat

Background: Mastery refers to the degree to which people perceive that they can control factors that influence their life situation, and has been found important for people's quality of life and well-being. It is thus essential to be able to measure mastery in a valid and reliable way. Aim: This study aimed at using the Rasch measurement model to investigate the psychometric properties of a Swed

BACKGROUND: We previously reported that a single prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measured at ages 44-50 was highly predictive of subsequent prostate cancer diagnosis in an unscreened population. Here we report an additional 7 years of follow-up. This provides replication using an independent data set and allows estimates of the association between early PSA and subsequent advanced cancer (clinical

The aim of this article is to draw attention to the dangerous, indeed poisonous, nature of the current debates on immigration and multiculturalism in today’s ‘omniphobic’ Europe, plagued not only by a severe economic crisis, but also a more general normative crisis, a ‘crisis of values’ so to speak, which has been consistently overlooked or manipulated by politicians and academics alike, or reduce

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

We present comprehensive results on continuous atmospheric cluster and particle measurements in the size range similar to 1-42 nm within the European Integrated project on Aerosol Cloud Climate and Air Quality interactions (EUCAARI) project. We focused on characterizing the spatial and temporal variation of new particle formation events and relevant particle formation parameters across Europe. Dif
