Denna studie undersöker implicita och explicita attityder till kvinnor i Sverige och sambandet däremellan. Urvalet bestod av män och kvinnor (N = 62) i olika åldrar och yrkesbefattningar i Sverige. För att fånga deltagarnas implicita associationer användes Implicit Association Test (IAT). IAT ämnar att mäta personers automatiska och spontana implicita associationer. De explicita attityderna mättesThis study examines implicit and explicit attitudes towards women in Sweden and the connection between these. The sample consisted of men and women (N = 62) of different ages and professional positions in Sweden. To capture the participants' implicit associations, the Implicit Association Test (IAT) was used. The IAT aims to measure people’s automatic and spontaneous implicit associations. Exp

A numerical study was carried out in a solar air heater (SAH) using different shapes of miniature (V, arc and transverse broken-miniature) combined with dimples on an absorber panel to improve heat transfer. For an experimental and simulation study using ANSYS (Fluent), a dimple with a V-miniature rib was fabricated on a plate (absorber) as a roughness element. By providing the angle of attack (α)

Bakgrund Skador inom fotboll är vanligt förekommande, både bland män och kvinnor. Studier visar att tillämpning av skadeförebyggande träning kan minska risken för skador. Tillämpningen av skadeförebyggande träning sker inte så ofta som den kanske borde. Syfte Syftet med studien var att undersöka och jämföra upplevd kunskap och förekomst av muskelstärkande träning hos en grupp manliga och kvinnlig

The present study evaluates the effect of water and acetic acid washing on the chemical composition of spruce bark in-depth. Also, washing with steam explosion condensate (SEC) was investigated which is a novel attempt. The leaching kinetics of troubling elements (TE) was studied to understand the leaching behavior of TEs and for upscaling the process. Furthermore, to study the ash transformation

Activated carbons are promising sorbents that have been heavily investigated for the physisorptive storage of hydrogen. The industrial process for production of activated carbons is finely tuned and requires a reliable and uniform feedstock. While the natural biopolymer lignin, a byproduct of several industries, has received increasing interest as a potentially sustainable and inexpensive activate

Rheological properties of hydrogels composed of TEMPO-oxidised cellulose nanofibrils (OCNF)-starch in the presence of cationic surfactants were investigated. The cationic surfactants dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were used to trigger gelation of OCNF at around 5 mM surfactant. As OCNF and DTAB/CTAB are oppositely charged, an electrostatic attract

Bakgrund: För att skelettmuskulaturen ska kunna kontraheras krävs energirika fosfatbindningar som heter adenosintrifosfat (ATP). För att tillgodose muskulaturens behov av energi finns 3 olika system, där det största, som producerar majoriteten av all ATP under vila och längre ansträngningar (>1 minut) är det aeroba systemet. I avsaknad av syre eller när de aeroba processerna inte hinner ta vara p

We report the discovery of two transiting planets around the bright (V = 9.9 mag) main-sequence F7 star TOI-1670 by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. TOI-1670 b is a sub-Neptune ( Rb=2.06-0.15+0.19 R) on a 10.9 day orbit, and TOI-1670 c is a warm Jupiter ( Rc=0.987-0.025+0.025 R Jup) on a 40.7 day orbit. Using radial velocity observations gathered with the Tull Coudé Spectrograph on the H

How we manage resources, in this case food, based on our culture is the core interest of human ecology. According to systems analysist Donella Meadows, cultural factors, i.e. our mindset, are the most difficult intervention points to access for system change - but also the most effective. This essay examines through a survey and a smaller experiment how prescribed norms and attitudes of social cir

Films of titanate nanosheets (approx. 1.8-nm layer thickness and 200-nm size) having a lamellar structure can form electrolyte-filled semi-permeable channels containing tetrabutylammonium cations. By evaporation of a colloidal solution, persistent deposits are readily formed with approx. 10-μm thickness on a 6-μm-thick poly(ethylene-terephthalate) (PET) substrate with a 20-μm diameter microhole.

Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa bland ungdomar och unga vuxna har ökat och kommer sannolikt att fortsätta öka på sikt. Depression och ångestsyndrom är bland de vanligaste orsakerna till psykisk ohälsa världen över. Arbetsterapeuter besitter en avgörande kompetens inom aktivitet och hälsa. Denna kompetens kan vara behjälplig för ungdomar och unga vuxna med depression och ångestsyndrom. Syfte: Att kartläggBackground: Mental illness among youth and young adults has increased and will likely continue to increase in the long term. Depression and anxiety disorders are among the most common causes of mental illness worldwide. Occupational therapists possess competence in activity and health. This competence can be helpful for adolescents and young adults with depression and anxiety disorders. Aim: To ov

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) are powerful regulators of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. However, the specific molecular requirements controlling the bioavailability of BMPs in the extracellular matrix (ECM) are not yet fully understood. Our previous work showed that BMPs are targeted to the ECM as growth factor-prodomain (GF-PD) complexes (CPLXs) via

Pores in the size range 2.0-20 nm are considered mesopores. Using the sol-gel process and a catalog of surfactant molecules, thin films with ordered mesopores can be produced. Films formed by evaporation-induced self-assembly, growth from solution, and other methods such as vapor phase deposition and pulsed laser deposition are examined. The various patterns derived from these approaches are discu

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur medarbetare upplever att deras obekväma arbetstider påverkar deras välmående i utifrån tre invarianta teman; återhämtning, work-life balance samt lärande. Uppsatsen präglas av ett medarbetarperspektiv på ett stort industriföretag där fyra medarbetare har intervjuats. Två medarbetare arbetar konstant natt och två stycken arbetar tvåskift, det vill säga
