Bakgrund: Naturen har potentiellt positiv effekt på mental hälsa, vilket kan användas inom rehabilitering. Forskning har bedrivits på ämnet inom psykologi, landskapsarkitektur och stadsplanering. Det finns studier som undersöker naturbaserade interventioners (NBI) effekter i rehabiliteringsträdgård, men inte av NBI förlagd i allmän miljö. Syfte: Syftet är att kartlägga innehåll, genomförande och e
This thesis studies the potential economic effects of a menstrual leave pol- icy introduction in Sweden. With a basis in agency theory and previous research on insurance behavior, the Swedish sickness insurance system is an- alyzed alongside collected data from a survey conducted for the study. The Swedish sickness insurance system is found to not sufficiently support individ- uals in frequent nee
Social factors within educational settings have been repeatedly highlighted as a key determinant of students' academic achievements and school success. This thesis investigates the interplay between peer relations, social belonging, cultural identity, school culture, and academic outcomes in Swedish upper secondary schools. Utilizing survey data gathered in 2013 from students across eleven upp
Södervärns vattentorn är kanske en av Malmös mest kända byggnader. Sen det stod klart 1916 och fram tills det togs ur bruk 2015 har det försett Malmöiterna med dricksvatten. Efter tornet slutat att användas som vattentorn har en debatt hållits kring vad som skall ske med tornet utan resultat. Detta examensarbete svarar på denna fråga baserat på en analys av byggnaden och ett gestaltningsförslag
The legalization of marijuana in the United States has prompted extensive debate and research, particularly concerning its impacts on various societal aspects. This study examines the influence of marijuana legalization on university education by comparing three Pacific Northwest states: Oregon (OR) and Washington (WA), which have legalized marijuana, and Idaho (ID), which maintains prohibition. T
In recent years, researchers worldwide have become increasingly interested in the phenomenon of code-switching in the multilingual classroom. The paper aims to try to understand when and why teachers in Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) schools code-switch in their classrooms. It analyses the methods and reasons for teachers’ code-switching in the SFI classroom. A case study was conducted by means of a
As additive manufacturing technology within the aerospace sector advances rapidly, optimizing process monitoring methods has become increasingly critical, given that existing techniques remain costly and time-consuming. This study presents a novel approach to monitoring the laser metal deposition (LMD) process, emphasizing real-time anomaly detection through the analysis and prediction of frames f
Democracy has been the cornerstone of the European Union since its foundation, however, since Viktor Orbán and his Fidesz party took office, what has been happening in Hungary is greatly undermining the democratic values in the EU. In that context, this thesis seeks to examine what results in the democratic backsliding in a country which was once one of the most successful stories of democratizati
Studiens syfte är att undersöka vad som motiverar unga vuxna att använda sig av sociala medier, hur deras användande ser ut, vilket typ av innehåll de får upp och deras upplevelser kring det innehåll som presenteras för dem. Studien utgår främst från den kvalitativa metoden fokusgruppsintervjuer, och det transkriberade innehållet analyserades sedan genom kodningsmetoden Summary-based reporting. Fo
This qualitative study aimed to explore the experiences related to the integration process in the Swedish labor market of highly educated female refugees who fled from Syria to Sweden between the years of 2014 to 2021. Interviews were conducted with a total of seven women who, at the time of their interviews, were in different stages of integration into the labor market. Three of the women that we
After having decided to continue my musical career as a piano collaborator, I opted to examine the area of study more specifically. This study aims to identify the fundamental competencies for professional collaborators. I intend to highlight some of the challenges, key features, and difficulties that I may face during the process, as well as investigate how a revised view of being a collaborative
Mänskliga rättigheter inom kommuner och andra lokala organisationer är ett komplext ämne. I den lokala verkligheten finns det svårigheter att applicera mänskliga rättigheter på arbetet. Kommunen styrs av policyer, styrdokument, budget och visioner, men dessa kan vara svåra att förstå i den egna verksamheten. Malmö stad är en kommun med ett välfungerande arbete med mänskliga rättigheter, men även d
In this thesis we use theory of branch groups and profinite groups to find infinite finitely generated residually finite torsion-free groups whose profinite completions are pro-p. We achieve this by defining a property analogous to the congruence subgroup property of integer matrix groups, which most GGS-groups satisfy, and use this to show that the commutator subgroups of such groups has pro-p pr
This thesis explores the divergent economic trajectories of Taiwan and China, focusing on how institutional differences shaped their respective economic structures. Through a comparative analysis, the study investigates the role of political institutions in driving Taiwan’s emergence as a knowledge-based economy (KBE) and China’s continued reliance on labor-intensive manufacturing. Despite similar
This paper applies the GARCH-MIDAS (mixed data sampling) framework to examine if geopolitical risk indices (GPR) have predictive ability when forecasting stock market volatility in advanced economies. Stock market indices and country-specific GPR indices from 21 advanced economies are used to examine the out-of-sample predictability of short-term total variance and long-term variance. The main fin
The investigation of Bismuth surface structures on InSb(110) surfaces is driven by the need to advance semiconductor technology for enhanced electronic device performance and new applications in optoelectronics and quantum computing. III-V semiconductors offer superior electronic properties compared to silicon. Incorporating Bismuth into these materials can significantly manipulate the bandgap, ma
Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is a method to stimulate the body's muscles using bursts of electricity on the skin that can strengthen the muscles, increase coordination, and simulate human muscle movement to prevent the formation of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DTV). Electrically sensitive skin areas, called Motor Points (MP), must be stimulated to achieve a robust muscular response and
Amine transaminases are valuable biocatalysts in the pharmaceutical industry for the production of chiral amines. Their high regioselectivity and inherent regeneration of cofactor pose them as a greener alternative to the chemical synthesis. However, their application is hampered by their limited stability and narrow substrate scope and product inhibition. Recently, a stable tetrameric amine trans
This bachelor’s thesis explores social workers' experiences with two different approaches to addressing homelessness in Sweden: the Housing Ladder and Housing First. The study employs a qualitative research methodology, utilizing semi-structured interviews with social workers who have experience with both models. The analysis combines thematic coding with Fairclough's Critical Discourse An
