With a growing population comes the challenge of providing accessible and nutritious food and at the same time adapting a sustainable approach to achieve the desired target. Seaweeds have been utilized as food in the South-Southeast Asian cuisine for a long time in history. However, in the recen

Tonåringar löper hög risk att utsättas för traumatiska händelser och utveckla posttraumatiskt stressyndrom (PTSD). En litteraturstudie gjordes för att undersöka vilken kvalitet evidensen för behandlingsformen Prolonged Exposure (PE-A) har för tonåringar, samt kliniska implikationer av den forskning som har gjorts. Sökningen efter litteratur resulterade i nio artiklar, fyra randomiserade kontrollerTeenagers are at high risk of being exposed to traumatic events and developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This literature study evaluates the evidence for one of the treatment protocols, Prolonged Exposure for Adolecescents (PE-A), as well as looking at the clinical implications of the studies that have been done. Reviews in databases resulted in nine articles, four of them were randomi

Previous research has shown the importance of the CEO letter in a company’s annual report, with it being one of the most widely read parts. Despite this, it is compared to most other parts in the annual report not audited, meaning that the CEO can write whatever they see fit without any precautions. Based on this research, the purpose of this study was to analyse whether the tone of reported infor

In the ever evolving and ambiguous environment of VAT treatment of sales of shares, the underlying purpose test has arisen as a new form of controversy. While it seems to be a viable method for establishing in specific circumstances a strong enough direct and immediate link to guarantee deduction also for costs incurred in relation to an exempt or out-of-scope share disposal, the test’s nature and

Studien syftade till att få en djupare kunskap kring hur behandlare beskriver och förhåller sig till mötet med personer som lider av könsdysfori i kombination med ätstörningar. Nio behandlare på två mottagningar intervjuades utifrån semistrukturerade intervjuer. På den ena mottagningen arbetar personalen med sexuell hälsa och den andra mottagningen är en del av psykiatrins öppenvård med speciell iThe aim of this study was to reach a deeper understanding of how professionals trained in psychotherapy describe and relate to the challenges in meeting clients with a comorbidity of eating disorder and gender dysphoria. Nine professionals participated in semi-structured interviews and nine themes were identified through thematic analysis. The participants were recruited from two clinics, one that

Uppsatsen redogör relationen mellan föräldraförsäkringens längd och kvinnors arbetskraftsdeltagande i Sverige jämfört med Norden. Rapporten tar utgångspunkt i Sverige och beskriver allmän bakgrund till föräldraförsäkring samt dess utformning och påverkan på kvinnors i arbetslivet. Därefter introduceras utvalda lämpliga nationalekonomiska teorier som utreder relationen i Sverige jämfört med Norden.

Trots att delaktighet är en bärande princip inom hälso- och sjukvård, indikerar litteraturen att den brister inom den psykiatriska slutenvården. Graden av delaktighet kan påverka både vårdens utfall och patientens självkänsla. Det går att argumentera för delaktighet både utifrån ett etiska anledningar, samt utifrån förbättrade vårdresultat. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur läkare inomLiterature indicates that patient participation in decision making in psychiatric inpatient care leaves much to be desired. At the same time research shows that the degree of participation can affect both the outcome of the care and the patient's self-esteem. Patient participation can be argued for both on the basis of ethical reasons, and for the improved outcome of the care. The purpose of t

Grov kvinnofridskränkning har i Sverige sedan 1998 möjliggjort lagföring av flera brottsgärningar under samma rubricering och har diskuterats flitigt under många år. Mäns våld mot kvinnor gestaltas som ett stort samhällsproblem och flera olika lösningar, dels genom kriminalvården och uppdrag av regeringen har försökt angripa problemet men utan några vidare resultat. Syftet med denna uppsats är dä

The aim of this study was to examine the experiences of change in hospital social counselors counseling with patients during the Covid-19 pandemic, based on the topics “use of digital tools” and “the use of infection control equipment and infection control in general”. Furthermore, the study seeks to understand how the change in work methods caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the perceiv

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka sambandet mellan mat och skapandet av en kollektiv identitet för svensk-iranier i Sverige. Forskningsfrågorna kretsar kring vad den iranska matkulturen omfattar enligt informanterna, vad den har för betydelse för informanterna, om svensk-iranier känner samhörighet till följd av delad matkultur och om de anser att det är viktigt att föra vidare den iranska

Alzheimers sjukdom är en av de vanligaste neurodegenerativa sjukdomarna som leder till demens. Symptom av sjukdomen är bland annat minnesförlust och en försämrad kognitiv förmåga, vilket orsakas av att nervcellerna i hjärnan dör på grund av aggregering av olika peptider. En av dessa peptider, som aggregerar genom att först bilda toxiska oligomerer och sedan amyloida fibriller, är amyloid-β (Aβ). PThe molecular chaperone DNAJB6 has conserved serine (S) and threonine (T) residues, which are crucial for its ability to efficiently suppress amyloid formation of aggregation-prone amyloidogenic peptides. Substitution of the conserved ST-residues with alanine residues results in loss of this function. These functionally important conserved ST-residues are located in a C-terminal domain, which is c

This thesis examines the effect of income inequality on economic growth within the European Union (EU) during the period 1991–2019. For the empirical investigation, the analysis includes four measures of income inequality. The data points for these measures have been collected from the World Income Inequality Database (WIID). The regression procedure is carried out using panel data with fixed effe

Purpose: The aim is to apply technology acceptance research on elderlies’ use of digital services during a global pandemic, where risks associated with the corresponding physical alternatives are obvious but use is voluntary. By examining constructs based on a modified UTAUT2 framework, the following research question will be answered: Which factors influence elderlies' intention to use digita

This paper examines whether the impact of inflation on economic growth has changed over the last few decades. It uses linear panel data for 81 countries over the time period 1960-2020. The study builds on the research done by Robert Barro (1995) which concludes that during the time period 1960-1990 inflation had a negative impact on economic growth. This study confirms that Barro’s results hold an

The way conflicts are understood depends on how identities are conveyed through media. Newspapers’ reports of the Gilets Jaunes protests in France during the autumn 2018 are no exception. One factor that can influence which choices are made in describing identity, is the distance between the place of publication and the location of events. Articles from Le Figaro and The Times are analysed using d

Bakgrund: Den palliativa vården ska utgå från klientens behov, önskemål och förutsättningar, vilket innebär att vårdpersonal ska arbeta klientcentrerat. Med ett klientcentrerat bemötande kan arbetsterapeuter möjliggöra individuellt meningsfulla aktiviteter och öka livskvaliteten i slutet av livet. Få studier har dock belyst hur arbetsterapeuter arbetar klientcentrerat inom palliativ vård. Syfte:

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a widely publicised corporate practice that has become widespread across the globe in the context of globalisation. Still, past research has found considerable variation in the understanding and practice of CSR among companies in different national contexts. China and Sweden, two countries with very different political and economic environments, have been c
