This study in contemporary history describes the transformation of the public sphere in Sweden during the period 1969-1999, and analyses the role of information technology and politics in the process. The overall aim of the study is to explain how, and why, the public sphere in Jürgen Habermas sense has deteriorated during a period of rapid technological and political change, when increasing atten
Det övergripande syftet med vårt arbete är att belysa den lokala konstruktionen av motivation. Vi vill mer specifikt belysa skillnader mellan hur motivation kommer till uttryck i olika omgivningar. Utifrån detta har vi skapat en modell som bygger på två parametrar kunskapskrav och karriärmöjligheter. Vi har sedan utgått från dessa när vi strukturerat vårt empiriska urval. Primärdatan är ett urval
The rules of law regarding complaints have frequently been addressed in law debates and have in addition been overviewed for a long time. Within the laws of carriage, the law of carriage and the law of the sea, the rules of complaint remain separated from general rules of complaint. Within the rules of the Swedish law of carriage (vägtransportlagen) as well as the Swedish maritime law (sjölagen),
The rapid changes in internet technology, coupled with Web 2.0 have created new and exciting ways of how we interact, socialize, and express ourselves. These new forms of socializations have been highly facilitated by Social Networking Sites (SNSs). These SNSs work as platforms for all types of information and entertainment experiences, creating a distinct culture of consumption of information and
The main goal of this project was to investigate how the thermal stability of two different types of polyhydroxyalkanoates; poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) were affected when washing them with acid solution. Initially, four different acids were used: citric acid, hydrochloric acid, formic acid and acetic acid. Citric acid gave the best results for both biop
Internationell investeringsrätt är ett mycket komplext rättsområde som består av cirka 3000 internationella investeringsavtal som syftar till att främja och skydda utländska investeringar. De tillhandahåller en tvistlösningsmekanism kallad investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) mellan investerare och stater som ger investerare rätt att stämma värdstater direkt inför internationella skiljedomstolInternational investment law (IIL) is a highly complex area of law that consists of around 3000 international investment agreements (IIAs) that aim to promote and protect foreign investment. They provide for investor-State dispute settlement (ISDS) which gives investors the right to sue host States directly through international arbitral tribunals. During the last decade, this system has received
Until today, little research has been made of how individuals develope emotional relations to their clothes. Women have been, and still are, the main focus in most of the contemporary studies, therefore it exists a lack of knowledge of how men and women can relate differently to their clothing. The primary aim of this study is to illustrate how young men and womens different approaches to fashion,
Följande studie undersöker om det finns ett positivt samband mellan mellanstadielärares känsla av sammanhang och deras upplevelse av balans mellan arbete och privatliv. Vidare undersöks det även om lärarnas arbetsengagemang och tillfredsställelse med balans i sitt liv medierar detta samband. Data har samlats in med hjälp av ett självskattningsformulär bestående av Soc-13, UWES-9, Satisfaction with
Background: Integument-related toxicities are common during epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy. Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting the EGFR that significantly improves progression-free survival when added to chemotherapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have wild-type (WT) KRAS tumours. Primary efficacy and tolerability results from a
In the current work, in order to model a free electron solvated in water, we have implemented a method to represent the molecular charge distribution as a set of Slater-type functions within the framework of a QM/MM method called QMSTAT. Also, it has been introduced in this method a new approach to calculate the intermolecular induction energy in the presence of very strong electric fields. Unlike
Recently, a 1.83 Å crystallographic structure of nitrogenase was suggested to show N2-derived ligands at three sites in the catalytic FeMo cluster, replacing the three μ2 bridging sulfide ligands (two in one subunit and the third in the other subunit) (Kang et al. in Science 368: 1381–1385, 2020). Naturally, such a structure is sensational, having strong bearings on the reaction mechanism of the e
Intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) is a global public health issue often assumed to be associated with gender inequality. The so-called Nordic Paradox, the apparently contradictory co-existence of high levels of IPVAW and of gender equality in Nordic countries, has not been adequately explained. This study explores discussions about how this apparent paradox can be understood among 30
Estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is important in daily practice to assess kidney function and adapting the best clinical care of patients with and without chronic kidney disease. The new creatinine-based European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) equation is used to estimate GFR. This equation was developed and validated mainly in European individuals and based on a rescaled creatinine,
The relationship between misophonia and sleep-related problems (SRPs) in youth is underexplored. This paucity of research is concerning because SRPs might be elevated among youth with misophonia. If left untreated, SRPs can contribute to long-term health consequences. Thus, in this study we examined the link between misophonia and SRPs in youth aged 8 to 17. In this study, we compared SRPs in 102
