Purpose: The knowledge about young adults who have lost a parent to cancer is limited, and to reach a broader understanding about this group, this study used the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement (Stroebe and Schut, 1999) as a theoretical framework. The purpose of this study was to describe loss- and restoration-oriented bereavement stressors and psychosocial wellbeing of young adults

Eye data quality varies greatly with the eyetracking system, the individual characteristics of participants, the recording environment, and the operator. The quality of the signal has important repercussions for which eye movement measures are valid, and what conclusions can be drawn from them. Reading research often has high demands in terms of spatial precision and accuracy. Reliably detecting e

Artikeln behandlar den litauisk-amerikanske folkrättsjuristen Jacob Robinsons (1889-1977; på litauiska: Jokūbas Robinzonas) bidrag till folkrättsdoktrin och folkrättspraxis

In this paper, we will present some of our findings from a study conducted on legislative measures related to the online infringement of intellectual property rights commissioned by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) on legislative measures related to online intellectual property rights infringements. The present summarizes the mapping the existing legislative national measure

Kenya’s population is rapidly growing and urbanising. Poverty and problems of food insecurity are equally urbanising at an unprecedented rate. Formal employment has not kept pace with the job demand of the growing population. As a result, urban residents seek employment (livelihood) from an array of informal economic activities, including own food production. The growing urban population and urban

Digitalisering kan främja allmänhetens insyn och öka möjligheterna till vidareutnyttjande av information från den offentliga förvaltningen, men den kan också leda till nya risker för den personliga integriteten. Den här handboken tar ett helhetsgrepp om regleringen av allmänna handlingars offentlighet, vidareutnyttjande, sekretess och dataskydd i det digitala samhället. Medan reglerna om tillgång

An unmanned ship can be designed without considering humancomfort, and can thus be constructed lighter, smaller and less expensive.It can carry out missions in rough terrain or be in areaswhere it would be dangerous for a human to operate. By not havingto support a crew, lengthy missions can be accepted, enabling, e.g.reconnaissance missions, or reducing emissions by lowering thespeed.Breakthrough

In 1822 the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed The Cruel Treatment of Cattle Act, which today is considered to be an important forerunner to modern animal protection and anti-cruelty legislation. However, the new Enlightenment attitudes to animals stemmed from an overly anthropocentric perception of the natural world and the place of the human animal in it. At the heart of the movement agains

Vi vill med den här artikeln peka på att Sveriges städer har flera utmaningar kring styrning och hantering av vatten, samt föreslår sju principer för lösningar. Klimatförändringarna och den urbana tillväxten gör att åtgärder behövs nu för att hantera både vattenbrist och översvämning på ett integrerat sätt. Här fokuserar vi på kommunnivå och urbana områden, där vi argumenterar för att det behövs eWe argue in this paper that Swedish urban areas have several urgent challenges when it comes to water governance and we propose seven principles for addressing them. Climate change and urban growth call for swift action to manage both water scarcity and flooding in an integrated way. This paper focuses on the municipal level for which we argue that there is a need for a more systematic approach. T

Coordination is an important success factor for a development project. Communication gaps, e.g. between product owners shaping the requirements and testers verifying the developed software can result in wasted effort and unsuccessful products. We propose improving the communication between project members with recommendations of whom to interact with and what to discuss based on link prediction in

Hur och under vilka omständigheter definieras och inramas skolledarskap? Frågan ställs i detta kapitel till två slags texter som vid sidan av sina respektive huvudfunktioner just definierar och inramar skolledares görande. Det är, för det första, texter som reglerar rektorers uppdrag generellt och på nationell nivå, närmare bestämt styrdokument för den sedan 2010 obligatoriska rektorsutbildningen

To describe outdoor barriers in the nearby home environments of very old people, and to investigate whether the presence of these environmental barriers differed between users and non-users of mobility devices (MDs). Method: Baseline data on 397 Swedish people aged 80-89 years, collected with a study-specific question on MD use and a subset of the environmental component of the Housing Enabler ins

This chapter focuses on measuring spatial pattern in floodplains and reviews 108 publications from 1934-2013 to determine trends, dominant paradigms, and approaches to measuring spatial pattern in floodplains. The development of new technologies, especially those associated with remotely sensed data capture, increases the ability to quantitatively measure the spatial complexity of floodplain surfa

Introduction: The pulsatility indices of the umbilical and uterine arteries are used as the surrogate measures of utero-placental perfusion. Combining the two might simplify the evaluation of total placental vascular impedance, possibly improve prediction of adverse outcomes, and help identify pregnancies with suspected fetal growth restriction that need more intense surveillance.
