En enkätstudie genomfördes i syfte att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar psykologers hbtq-kompetens. Via Facebook rekryterades 407 psykologer som besvarade den webbaserade enkäten. Hbtq-kompetens operationaliserades genom två komponenter: attityder till hbtq* (hbtq* används genomgående som förkortning för “hbtq-personer och hbtq-frågor”) och hbtq-kompetens (upplevd självförmåga att agera hbtq-A survey was conducted to investigate psychologists’ lgbtq competence. A total of 407 psychologists were recruited through Facebook. The concept of lgbtq competence was operationalized through two components: attitudes towards lgbtq* (attitudes towards and knowledge about lgbtq people and issues) and lgbtq competence (lgbtq affirmative counseling self-efficacy). The results were in line with previ
Svensk rätt erbjuder ett starkt skydd för både barn och arbetstagare. När en förvärvsarbetande förälder placeras på ett HVB-hem tillsammans med sitt barn uppstår dock en rättslig spänning. För dessa situationer finns ingen särskild reglering som tydliggör förälderns rätt till ledighet eller ekonomisk ersättning, trots att frånvaron bygger på ett myndighetsbeslut med barnets bästa som utgångspunkt.Swedish law provides robust protection for both children and employees. However, legal uncertainty arises when a parent is placed in a residential care home (HVB) together with their child. In such cases, there is currently no specific regulation clarifying the parent’s right to take leave from work or receive financial compensation, even though the absence is based on an official decision grounde
This study examines the use of transformer-based language models for multi-label classification of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) topics in media coverage of DAX-listed companies. Using a dataset of approximately 11,500 third-party media texts, thirty ESG topics were assigned to documents through a pipeline combining lemmatised keyword matching and semantic similarity. Four models we

Har du någonsin hört talas om en supernova? En exploderande stjärna som kastar ut högenergetiska partiklar. Inte nog med det så färdas även dessa partiklar genom hela galaxen. Galaxer är stora och endast några ut av partiklarna når vår jord. Vi kan finna dessa partiklar i en iskärna och på så sätt har forskare kunnat få tag på information som behövs för att kunna studera jordens magnetfält. Med inExtreme geomagnetic variations such as excursions where the magnetic poles shift, and return are not fully understood. 10Be, used as a proxy for the magnetic field studies has been proposed as a compliment to paleomagnetic models, allowing adjustments. LSMOD.2 is a sediment and volcanic based magnetic model encompassing the Laschamps excursion ~41 000 years ago. LSMOD.2 is limited due to lacking d
Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are among the top causes of death in Europe and as such, a serious health concern. Blood cultures are the most common method to diagnose this condition, bringing certain disadvantages. Mainly, it is time- consuming as it can take several days to get the test results back. Furthermore, the blood cultures carry a high risk of contamination. For this reason, a successful
Heart failure is one of the most common causes of hospitalization in Sweden, and 30\% of all heart failure patients need unplanned readmissions within three months, creating a burden on the healthcare system. This project was conducted within the healthcare model "Hospital at Home", where there is currently no systematic follow-up method of heart failure patients. By monitoring those wit
Havredrycker har blivit alltmer populära tack vare konsumenternas ökade intresse för hållbara och hälsosamma livsmedel. Men produktionen av havredryck ställer unika krav på rengöring av utrustningen, särskilt när det gäller UHT-behandling (Ultra-High Temperature) som används för att förlänga hållbarheten. Detta gör att nya utmaningar kring rengöring av utrustningen uppstår. Denna studie undersökteThis study investigates the optimization of Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) programs for Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) equipment used in oat drink production. The research comprises three main experiments: an Identification of the largest cleaning load product, an Assessment of improved CIP programs, and an Investigation of deposit composition in the flash cooler. The Identification of the largest cleanin

Differential of the peripheral blood is an important tool when assessing blood-related diseases. Lymphocytes are part of the immune system and morphological changes thereof should raise attention. CellaVision’s current systems automatically detect and pre-classify lymphocytes that exhibit atypical morphologies but do not further distinguish those into subclasses. By adding the subclasses into the
As more and more urban areas are planning and responding to climate change there is a need to understand the role that local action is having at the national and international level. The Paris Agreement called for a global goal on adaptation but in practice aggregating progress on adaptation is hard to achieve. Effective monitoring, evaluation, reporting, and learning systems are crucial to inform
Studies indicate that crime is a common occurrence in Swedish schools and that schools create their own living law regarding managing crime. This study aims to analyze the approach of the teachers that makes crucial decisions when dealing with crime in school. The goal is to find out how different norm perspectives, that were found to be relevant when conducting the literature review, has affected
Elektroencefalografi (EEG) är en metod för att mäta hjärnans aktivitet genom att placera elektroder i hårbotten på en individ. Metoden är noninvasiv, relativt billig samt enkel att implementera, och är därför populär inom både forskning och medicin. EEG kan exempelvis användas för tankestyrning av robotproteser, känsloanalys, samt diagnostisering av olika sjukdomstillstånd såsom epilepsi. För attElectroencephalogram (EEG) measurements are notoriously noisy and non-stationary and there are several specialized techniques for their analysis and interpretation. In this thesis, we implement a collection of stationary and non-stationary methods including coherence, Phase Locking Value (PLV), Phase Lag Index (PLI), and their imaginary counterparts. In particular, we use the Singular Spectrum Dec
