Syftet med den aktuella studien var att undersöka om samband mellan workplace incivility och mental hälsa, arbetstillfredsställelse och avsikt att lämna jobbet föreligger i svenskt arbetsliv. Vidare var syftet att testa dessa samband genom att kontrollera för möjliga tredjevariabler till ett orsakssamband från workplace incivility till mental hälsa, arbetstillfredsställelse och avsikt att lämna joThe purpose of the present study was to investigate if co-variations of workplace incivility and mental health, job satisfaction and intention to leave the organization exist in the Swedish workplace. Furthermore, the purpose was to test these co-variations by controlling for possible third variables to a cause and effect relationship with workplace incivility causing lower mental health and job s

Abstract Title: Social services department’s modern centaurs – about social worker's dual role in cases of suspected crimes contribution Authors: Branislav Ros; Carl-Johan Martinsson Tutor: Lena Palvén Examiner: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The purpose of this study was to examine how social workers, in the social services department of economical aid, experience their dual role as helper

This report employ surveys and evacuation experiments to examine how various acoustic and optical signals attract peoples attention. The purpose of the study was to be the basis for a new Swedish standard regarding evacution signals. Initially a literature study were performed. Acoustic and optical signals were selected from the study. These signals were tested in a survey where the participants a

Kraftverksdammar används för att dämma stora mängder vatten och senare använda vattnet i elproduktion. Konsekvenserna vid ett eventuellt dammbrott kan bli mycket allvarliga och orsaka stora skador på människor, miljö och infrastruktur. De potentiella skadorna medför att säkerhetsarbetet är en stor och viktig del av dammverksamheten för att på ett så bra sätt som möjligt förhindra skador på dammar

Authors: Johannes Nöbbelin and Peter Strandkvist. Title: Addiction & Interventions, the individual solutions. Supervisor: Helena Hansson Assessor: Carina Tigervall The aim with this study was to analyze and examine the factors underlying the social secretary's choice of treatment for addicts. In order to better understand the complexities in the choices social workers face when they invest

This paper describes a pilot study aiming to map the anatomy of agoraphobia based on Lewin’s equation, B = f (P, E), stating that behaviour (B) is a function of the person (P), the environment (E) and the interaction between them, and by adapting Drottenborg’s model of sensible aesthetics describing “beautiful” and “ugly” traffic environments in relation to arousal through the basic emotional proc

Idag vet man genom flertalet forskningsrapporter och studier att barn som bevittnar våld i nära relationer kan ta lika stor skada som barn som direkt utsätts för misshandel, och att omfattningen av barns våldsexponering i hemmet är stor. Det har i förarbeten uttryckts att dessa barn kan anses vara föremål för en form av psykisk misshandel. Att låta barn bevittna våld är emellertid inte en kriminalWe know from a majority of research studies that children who witness domestic violence can take as much damage as children directly exposed to assault offenses, and that the extent of children's exposure of violence at home are of great proportions. It has been expressed in Swedish legislation that these children can be subject to psychological abuse. Allowing children to witness violence is

The purpose of this study was to find out what girls born in 1995 thought about education and what they had for professional dreams. Could they see any problems to achieve their dreams? Did they think that being a woman could be a problem? Did their parents influence the choices that they want to make? Wei interview 9 girls at the age of 14 to 15 years old. We chose this group because they were on

Social studies indicate that a gendered language may limit equal opportunities for women (Jakiela and Ozier 2018). Likewise, the use of gender-neutral pronouns may improve gender equality (Tavits and Pérez 2019). We aim to investigate this issue using cross-cultural data. The studies of (Whyte 1978) and (Sanderson and Donoghue 1989) (W1978/SD1989) connect gender inequality to cultural features.Tes

Clonal deconvolution of mutational landscapes is crucial to understand the evolutionary dynamics of cancer. Two limiting factors for clonal deconvolution that have remained unresolved are variation in purity and chromosomal copy number across different samples of the same tumor. We developed a semi-supervised algorithm that tracks variant calls through multi-sample spatiotemporal tumor data. While

Does the n-issue space in domestic European polities reduce to one, two, or more dimensions? How do these dimensions relate to each other? More broadly, how does dimensionality vary across countries? We attempt to advance our understanding of political contestation in Europe by mapping the dimensionality of the political space across 24 countries using Chapel Hill expert survey (CHES) data. We tes

Although the move to the center of many European Social Democratic par- ties in the 1990s was first rewarded with victories, these parties have since faced a remarkable electoral drought.What explains the seeming inability of these catchall parties to cast a wider but sustainable net for voters? Incorpo- rating a temporal dimension helps explain when and why the broadening of party platforms fails

Nature-based solutions (NBS) can help tackle climate change and advance urban sustainability by using nature to deliver social, ecological and economic benefits. However, their success largely depend on implementation for which several barriers exist. For NBS to be meaningful in terms of delivering positive impacts in cities, we need better understanding of how implementation is embedded in NBS fr

The structural research programmes of the European Union dedicated to advance thesustainability sciences are increasingly permeated by thenotion of transdisciplinarity (TD). A growing body of literature residing at the intersection of research methodology and sustainability studies can guide researchers to adopt appropriate research approaches in their projects. However, how to implement the trans
