Forskning visar att upplevelser av diskriminering och modern rasism (bland annat mikroaggressioner) har en negativ belastning på den psykiska hälsan bland etniska minoriteter och marginaliserade grupper. Detta har förklarats bland annat genom begreppet minoritetsstress men det finns fortfarande kunskapsluckor i hur man kan förebygga detta. Denna studie syftade till att bidra till detta växande forResearch shows that experiences of discrimination and modern racism (including micro-aggressions) have a negative impact on the mental health of ethnic minorities and marginalized groups. This has been explained for instance by the concept of minority stress, but there are still gaps in science on how to prevent this. This study aimed to contribute to this growing field of research by examining se

Under det gångna decenniet sedan 2010 steg den genomsnittliga statsskulden bland 35 av medlemsländerna i Organisationen för ekonomiskt samarbete och utveckling (OECD) från 65,5 till 68,2 procent av BNP.

Att vara polis innebär ett stort ansvar samtidigt som utsatthet, hot och våld för yrkesgruppen är ett utbrett fenomen. Därutöver är polisyrket en manligt dominerad bransch, där kvinnor utgör en minoritet, varför det är aktuellt att undersöka hur kvinnliga polisers arbetssituation ser ut mot denna bakgrund. Den här studien (n = 31) använde ett kvantitativt enkätinstrument med kvalitativa inslag förThreat and violence is common for police officers to endure. In addition, the police profession is a male-dominated area, where women constitute a minority, hence it is relevant to study female police officers’ work situation in relation to these factors. This study (n = 31) used a quantitative measurement with qualitative elements to investigate the behavior and attitudes, threats and violence th

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Triple-negative breast cancer affects 10-20% of breast cancer patients and is associated with an especially bad prognosis. Today, tissue slides are assessed manually by a clinician to set a prognosis. However, the prediction of outcomes could possibly be improved using machine learning. This work investigates various machine learning techniques for

By applying a critical understanding of empowerment, this study explores the power relations in women’s daily lives through their experience with a mentorship program called Carpe Sophia and analyzes whether or to what extent this program has an impact on women’s empowerment that can bring about gender equality. Carpe Sophia is a women’s economic empowerment program with an aim to increase employm

Society and disability - A qualitative study of inclusion of persons with disabilities in the Balinese society The aim of this study was to examine factors in the Balinese society that affected the life situation of persons with disabilities and what factors contributed to creating limitations and opportunities for them.

The World Bank is a key actor within development, continuously funding projects on women’s empowerment in countries world-wide; Liberia being one of them. Women and girls have been particularly affected by previous conflicts in Liberia, strongly impinging on their participation in the labor market still today (UN Women 2014). Research shows that one of the foremost issues for women today is the fa

Studiens syfte är att bidra med kunskap inom intern kriskommunikation genom att studera hur medarbetarna upplever proaktivt internt krisarbete. I det moderna samhället finns en generell uppfattning om att antalet kriser ökar. Idag är inte frågan om en kris kommer att ske utan när, vilket har lett till att organisationer måste arbeta proaktivt i sin krishantering. Det har ökat behovet av både akade

Studien syftade i första hand till att utföra en uppföljningsstudie av etableringen av lokaler i bottenvåningar i flerbostadshus på Liljeholmskajen i Stockholm. Inventeringen hade sitt ursprung i detaljplanebestämmelser och exploateringsavtal för fastigheterna och i huvudsak reglerades lokalerna i bottenvåningar i detaljplanerna med användningsbestämmelser som innehöll “Bottenvåningar ska utformasThe purpose of this study is mainly to do a follow-up investigation considering the establishment of non-housing premises on the ground floor in dwelling houses at Liljeholmskajen in Stockholm. In detailed development plans, the usage of the ground can be regulated with usage provisions and sometimes a developer must build something particular that the city’s planners decide, without other options

Styvhetsförändringar i bröstvävnad är ofta kopplade till en patologisk förändring. Vissa cancertyper som infiltererande duktalt carcinom kan vara åtta gånger så styv som fettvävnaden runt omkring. Genom att komprimera bröstet och mäta trycket på bröstets yta har man identifierat att det blir en lokal förhöjning i tryck där det finns en tumör. Med hjälp av den här typen av mekanisk avbildning av brA change in stiffness of breast tissue is often connected to a pathological change. Some types of breast cancer such as infiltrating ductal carcinoma can be up to eight times stiffer than fat tissue. It has been found that during compression of the breast there will be a local area of relatively high stress at the breast surface at the location of a tumour. This type of mechanical imaging of the b

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are widely believed to play a key role in the for- mation of intracellular biomolecular condensates through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). Furthermore, it has been shown in vitro that several IDPs are able to phase sepa- rate on their own. Computational modeling offers unique opportunities to investigate the driving forces and sequence-dependence of
