The 2025 European consensus emphasizes the need for multidisciplinary teamwork, digital innovation and equity-focused strategies to strengthen prevention across diverse healthcare system
This paper reports and analyzes the author’s own experiences of implementing a “joke starting” strategy into the lecture format of a given course. The “joke starting” strategy meant that every lecture in the studied course was (jump) started with a small joke. Thus, we investigate one particular approach to consciously use humor in teaching, an area well represented in the literature. The ambition
A matched filter composed of a time lagged feedforward artificial neural Network (TLFN) and a pulse-shaping filter is used in a noisy environment to detect R-waves for pacemakers. The TLFN reduces the influence of lower frequencies in the invasive electrogram (EGM) signals, e.g. P and T waves, and conditions the EGM to optimize the performance of the dynamically updated matched filter. Detector pe
Abstract in UndeterminedSpatial data clearinghouses are one of the key features of a spatial data infrastructure (SDI). However, recent research indicates that few national clearinghouses function well, as the spatial data resources available cannot be satisfactorily accessed or optimally used. To improve the functionality, we propose that clearinghouses to be complemented with expert systems and
Building interaction prototypes for ubiquitous computing is inherently difficult, since it involves a number of different devices and systems. Prototyping is an important step in developing and evaluating interaction concepts. The ideal prototyping methodology should offer high fidelity at a relatively low cost. This thesis describes the development of interaction concepts for controlling consume
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur användare uppfattar och förhåller sig till olika sorters reklam på det sociala nätverket Facebook. Vad är deras åsikter om reklam på Facebook?

Architects not so often focus on playgrounds. Indeed, it is a huge field, full of challenge and curiosity. The aim of this work is to design a playground, that would encourage children to stay outdoors enjoying the most interesting forms of play. Having studied the routes and the major aspects of playgrounds design, I decided not to impose a fixed form of organisation. Instead, an instrument was s
Syftet med studien var att undersöka om ACT-träning i grupp (Acceptance and Commitment Training) kunde leda till ökad psykologisk flexibilitet och empati, och minskad fördomsfullhet. Social dominansorientering och ingruppsidenitifikation studerades också som eventuella moderatorer. Tidigare forskning pekar på en relation mellan psykologisk flexibilitet, empati och fördomsfullhet, men ACT som metodThe purpose of this study was to examine if group-based ACT-training (Acceptance and commitment training) would lead to increased psychological flexibility and empathy, and decreased prejudice. Social dominance orientation and ingroup identification were studied as potential moderating mechanisms. Previous research shows a relationship between psychological flexibility, empathy and prejudice, but
Syftet med den aktuella studien var att undersöka om en intervention i positiv psykologi kunde leda till ett ökat välbefinnande hos elever i årskurs 1-6 på en svensk grundskola. Det undersöktes även om interventionen hade olika effekt i olika årskurser. Frågeformulär administrerades före och efter interventionen. Enstaka frågor om trivsel i skolan, psykosomatiska besvär och mobbning samt Students’The aim of the current study was to examine if a positive psychology intervention (PPI) could lead to an enhanced well-being of students in a Swedish elementary school (grades 1-6). It was also examined if the intervention had different effects in different grades. Questionnaires were administered before and after the intervention. Questions about well-being at school, psychosomatic disorders and
With the forces of globalization, previously safe home markets open up to foreign competition. This urges companies to expand internationally to keep growing. Current literature on how a company should enter a foreign market, namely the choice of entry mode, is based on findings for manufacturing firms and studies on service firms are scarce. In recent years, the service sector has grown steadily
En fri rörlighet för tjänster inom EU innebär en fri rätt för arbetsgivare att tillhandahålla tjänster på lika villkor i alla medlemsstater. Rätten till tjänsters fria rörlighet har dock gett upphov till en rad olika problem när det kommer till området för utstationering av arbetstagare. För att förhindra arbetsgivare från att exploatera sin arbetskraft genom social dumpning vid utstationering harA free movement of services within the EU amount to a free right for employers to provide services on equal terms in all member states. The right to free movement of services has however given rise to a number of problems when posting workers. In order to prevent employers from exploiting its workforce through social dumping when posting workers, the EU has established a minimum protection for the

Problembeskrivning: Behovet av ökad kunskap gällande arbetsmotivation tilltar i tider av förändrade karriärmönster och ombytliga trender. Sveriges arbetsmarknad ser inte längre ser ut som den en gång gjorde. Medarbetare ställer nya och högre krav på såväl privatliv som arbetsgivare. Minskad arbetsgivarlojalitet och motivationsbegreppets komplexitet ger därmed fog för att undersöka ämnet. Tidigare

Sverige straffrättsliga lagstiftning är unik i det avseendet att psykiskt störda lagöverträdare kan dömas till ansvar för sina gärningar. I en majoritet av världens rättssystem tillämpas i stället bestämmelser om tillräknelighet. Detta innebär att psykiskt sjuka lagöverträdare inte anses ansvariga för sina gärningar och därför går fria från straff. I svensk rätt fanns tidigare ett tillräknelighetsSwedish criminal law is unique in the sense that mentally disturbed offenders are held accountable for their actions. A majority of legal systems in the world excempt mentally disturbed offenders from criminal responsibility. They therefore go unpunished. Historically this has also been the case in Sweden but with the introduction of the penal code in 1965 the excemption of mentally disturbed offe
