This study aims to explore attitudes towards drugs among social work students and nursing students at Lund University. The objective is to analyze the potential differences between these two groups of students and the connection between the students' potential experiences with drugs and their attitudes. The Tripartite model of attitudes was used as the theoretical framework, with questions des

Återvinning av trädgårdsavfall i form av kompost associeras ofta till hållbarhet. Det representerar ett cirkulärt system där avfall omvandlas till en värdefull resurs som jordförbättring. En faktor som däremot måste tas hänsyn till i det cirkulära systemet är förekomsten av föroreningar. Mänsklig verksamhet har lett till ökade utsläpp av metaller och polycykliska aromatiska kolväten (PAH) i miljönIn this thesis work the potential of compost as a sustainable alternative to peat as soil amendment was investigated. Peat extraction has substantial negative environmental impacts, but concerns exist about potential contaminant accumulation in compost. Four soil amendments, one sourced from a Scanian municipality and three commercially available, were analyzed for the presence of 10 metals, 35 PF

Studieobjekt: E-handelsreturer inom modebranschen ur ett konsumentperspektiv Problemområde: Utifrån tidigare forskning har ökningen av onlineshopping resulterat i att modebranschen präglas av generösa returpolicys, vilket leder till ohållbara konsumentbeteenden och negativa konsekvenser för samhället. Syfte: Syftet med detta arbete är att analysera och undersöka varför e-handelskonsumenters return

The Swedish Armed Forces and the government have given the self-governing regions the responsibility to ensure medical device availability. This means that the regions should be able to provide healthcare that cannot be postponed for a period of six months without any deliveries. Simultaneously, new regulations have been implemented, resulting in stricter rules regarding medical devices. Hence, it

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. Utilizing interviews with six foreign-born women who have navigated these challenges, the research aims to understand the communicative and structural obstacles these women encounter. The findings reveal that

This thesis investigates Storasystertips, or big sister advice amongst young Swedish women on TikTok and how it reflects gender dynamics and societal expectations on young women in contemporary society. Women’s cultural production is often met with disdain and reduced to being narcissistic, not realising that young women’s production is in fact shaped by broader postfeminist and neoliberal discour

Cancer is a group of diseases involving the uncontrolled growth and spread of cells with the potential to invade and spread to other parts of the body. As the second leading cause of mortality worldwide, early diagnosis is crucial for improving patient prognosis and survival rates. Despite recent advancements, there remains a shortage of effective biomarkers for early detection of the cancer. The

Kompost kan användas vid odling som substitut för användning av andra komponenter, så som torv. Park- och trädgårdsavfall är exempel på kompostens ursprung. Ett dilemma som kan uppstå är att park- och trädgårdsavfall riskerar föra med sig andra ämnen, som vi inte nödvändigtvis vill sprida vidare i vår jord. Att plast används för många ändamål är väl känt. Tidigare forskning har hittat plast både iPlastics play a central role in our society today and are omnipresent. Compost frommgarden waste is used in gardening as a soil amendment. This circular use of plants, branches and other green waste is a way to reduce the use of linear resources for soil amendment, such as peat. A problem that can arise when using compost is the spread of plastic particles from the garden waste to the environment.

There is a rising demand for decarbonizing the building sector since it significantly contributes to global carbon emissions. With a focus on the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems specifically, this master’s thesis explores the embodied carbon within these building service systems. Utilizing established life cycle assessment methodologies, the case study thoroughly examines the embodied

This study aims to highlight the practical work and experiences of an organization working for Roma rights and inclusion in southern Sweden. Through semi-structured interviews with the agents of CRS (Center Roma South), this study strives for a deeper understanding of the organizations work, needs, and experiences with the Roma population in southern Sweden. The questions to be answered through th

Cancer remains one of the main challenges in healthcare, with profound global impact both in terms of morbidity and mortality. Spago Nanomedical is a Swedish company that has developed innovative metal-ion enriched nanoparticle-based therapies for cancer treatment and diagnosis. These nanoparticles have shown great promise and are currently undergoing clinical trials, however, there persists a des

The purpose of this study is to examine how sustainability trends have affected the operations and evaluation of investments made by Nordic private equity firms, how these trends have affected their investment strategies when using different sustainability measurement tools, and how their compliance process has been affected in the process of adjusting to the new EU regulations related to sustaina

This essay investigates the theme of lack of communication in personal relationships in the short stories “Esbjerg, en la costa” by Juan Carlos Onetti and “GPS” by Isaac Rosa. The purpose is to make a comparison of the two stories, analyzing them to decide how the same theme, that of lack of communication in personal relationships, can be narrated so differently. In both stories the men suspec

This thesis studies the effects of Higher-Derivative Gravity, in an Effective Field Theory format, on the properties of a rotating black hole. In particular, it corrects the Einstein-Hilbert action with curvature invariants that contain six and eight derivatives. The resulting Equations Of Motion are first derived, and then solved with an ansatz that permits the study of black holes with an arbitr

Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur ungdomar och vuxna som vuxit upp med en förälder med ett alkoholberoende beskriver sina emotioner samt vilken påverkan dessa emotioner fått på deras beteenden i barndomen. Studien utgår från en kvalitativ innehållsanalys där blogginlägg från barnrättsorganisationen Maskrosbarn analyseras. Dessa blogginlägg är skrivna av ungdomar eller vuxna som själva vuxit upp

Klimatförändringar är en av de största utmaningar som vi har idag globalt, och skogsbruket spelar en vital roll i kampen mot dessa förändringar. Genom att förstå och reglera brukandet och förvaltningen av våra skogar kan vi bidra till att minska koldioxidutsläppen och kan då öka upptaget av växthusgaser från atmosfären till skog och mark. Ett viktigt verktyg för att åstadkomma detta är LULUCF-föroThe European Union (EU) aims to increase the overall carbon sink through the 2030 climate and energy policy framework, which includes the newly reviewed instrument and regulation of Land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF). The regulation is considered an important component in the EU climate mitigation strategy which aims to manage and track the greenhouse gas emissions and removals in sec

This thesis explores the intersection of ceremonial spaces and the concept of “the thinking hand” in architecture, with a focus on the design of secular spaces for funerals and burials in the context of Sweden’s increasing secularization. Drawing upon Juhani Pallasmaa’s “The Thinking Hand,” the thesis emphasizes the importance of embodied knowledge, sensory experiences, and materiality in architec

While cameras are the most prevalent devices used in physical surveillance and monitoring, there are situations where they are ineffective. In adverse weather conditions, darkness or privacy-sensitive contexts, there are excellent opportunities to replace or complement cameras with radar. There are advanced and successful computer vision solutions for cameras, in areas such as object detection or

This thesis investigates the diffusion conditions of Wilson Golf’s recently launched Wilson Fit AI, an innovative custom fitting technology that leverages artificial intelligence to enhance the customer experience. This technology has the potential to transform norms and disrupt the status quo in custom fitting. Using innovation diffusion theory, the author evaluates the diffusion opportunities
