In this article we describe Tibetan indigenous women's perceptions and experiences of their own health and life situation in Shichuan Province, China. Fifteen focus group discussions (FGDs) and 10 interviews were conducted. Repeat FGDs were used to empower the women and as a tool to collect data. Content analysis was used to analyze the data, and three subthemes were identified: 'shouldering respo

Planned Extremely Large Telescopes will rely oil availability of large Deformable Mirror in the 2-3m class. Design and construction of such mirrors are challenging and call for powerful simulation tools. We present an evaluation model which is used to study performance of a large deformable mirror for three: actuator topologies. Back sensors topologies are discussed from the point of view of senso

When designing compensation payments for biodiversity conservation measures setting appropriate incentives so that landowners select spatially connected land parcels for conservation is of key importance for many species. The proposition of an agglomeration bonus, where landowners receive a homogeneous payment and a bonus on top if the spatial allocation of conserved land benefits biodiversity, ha

Syftet är att göra observationer av konceptuella metaforer och visa på metaforerna och deras underliggande tankestrukturers grundläggande betydelse för civilrättslig reglering, och vi använder oss därför av flera ex

Random-walk and diffusion models for two-choice comparison of paired successive or simultaneous stimuli focus on response time (RT), modeled as the time needed to reach one or the other barrier, and its relation to the response probabilities. Logit P1 = ln[P1/(1-P1)], where P1 is the probability of responding ”first greater,” can be seen as a measure of subjective stimulus difference, d. Signed re

Denna artikel är en undersökning av stress i akademiska miljöer, med fokus på ledarskap och stress. Det är en fallstudie, fyra personer i ledandarroller har intervjuats; alla är från HT-fakulteterna vid Lunds universitet. Jag kommer fram till att systemstress är det som präglar miljön, men även individuell stress. Samta att det tycks vara enormt svårt att hantera/motarbeta. Vissa genusperspektiv h

Kapitlet introducerar copingteorin och hur en sådan kan hjälpa oss att förstå religionens roll vid kriser. Religionens mångdimensionalitet diskuteras och centrala begrepp inom copingteorin presenteras (signifikans, primär, sekundär och tertiär bedömning). Antaganden om copingprocessen och hur denna sammanstrålar med religion introduceras liksom olika strategier för att behålla signifikans
