The purpose of this study has been to describe and analyze the views of the staff working at substitute receptions and at a social services abuse unity regarding sustenance treatment and at the same time distinguish different factors of influence. My introductory line of question has been to find out the thoughts and ideas of the staff regarding sustenance treatments. Furthermore I wanted to find

Trade marks perform a variety of economic functions in a commercial environment and plays an important role in a market economy. Therefore, there is a need to protect the distinguishing of competing goods and services offered by undertakings and accordingly to avoid consumer confusion. The origin function of the trade mark guarantees that all products bearing a trade mark emanate from the same com

Since ancient times, public squares have played a significant role in the social and political life of towns and cities. They were designed as open spaces for public use, allowing people to meet, communicate, and demonstrate, and as centers for commercial and civic culture that reflected historical transformations. However, nowadays, public squares are often nearly abandoned urban voids, rather th

Amyloid beta (Aβ) proteins are a group of proteins able to form fibrillar aggregates that are linked to the adverse neurological effects seen in Alzheimer’s disease [11]. The molecular mechanisms that lead to the Aβ aggregation are complex processes, and efforts to understand them are being made by investigating the kinetics and thermodynamic properties of the protein. The solubility of the protei

Active learning is increasingly implemented in higher education, yet students' perspectives on this pedagogical approach remain diverse. This study explores geoscience students' views on active learning within a course at the University of Bergen (UiB) and in relation to their broader study program. Through longitudinal qualitative interviews with two student cohorts, we identified seven main cate

A causal inference framework was developed to investigate crop responses to agricultural drought by integrating meteorological data, Sentinel-2-derived data, and soil property maps. To account for crop rotation, soil, and topographical variables, propensity score matching was employed to estimate drought-induced yield losses at the field level for selected periods. The Plant Phenology Index (PPI)

The body of international environmental law consists of framework agreements with vague norms that cannot be used in an operative manner. At the same time, sustainable development law promotes an integrated approach to social, economic and environmental issues, including other actors than states, which involves an increased pressure on private actors to take part in the efforts to protect the envi

The inclusion of the knowledge and perspectives of Indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLC) in global sciencepolicy processes are increasingly being mandated. This is indicative of the recognition of their expertise and worldviews to inform social and ecological decisions. The IPBES Values Assessment (VA) explicitly highlighted the necessity for a nuanced engagement of different actors whil

Losses and damages are residual impacts of climate change that occur despite mitigation and adaptation actions. Losses and damages are borderless, albeit experienced differently between and within countries. Although Australia is a high-income country, recent losses and damages have been particularly severe. Over the last eight years, farmers in East Gippsland, Victoria, have been severely affecte

This paper addresses the conflict between an ethics of care and instrumental concerns in caring leadership. Caring leadership has become increasingly popular in organisation and management studies, encompassing a view of leadership that emphasises that paying attention to relational concerns is a fundamental duty of managers in contemporary organisations. It emphasises leaders seeing employees not

The digitalisation of adolescents’ everyday lives has created new contexts in which intimate partner violence can occur. Digital intimate partner violence includes controlling, monitoring, and harassing behaviours carried out through digital tools such as social media, messaging applications, and location-sharing services. These behaviours are often normalised among young people, which makes the v

Northern ecosystems are experiencing some of the most dramatic impacts of global change on Earth. Rising temperatures, hydrological intensification, changes in atmospheric acid deposition and associated acidification recovery, and changes in vegetative cover are resulting in fundamental changes in terrestrial-aquatic biogeochemical linkages. The effects of global change are readily observed in alt

“Commensuration” as an analytic framework for studying the expanding measuring culture in social work Teres Hjärpe, PhD, Lund University, School of Social Work, teres.hjarpe@soch.lu.se. My PhD-project in social work deals with measurements and statistics as knowledge base and source for governance of social work activities. Social workers are currently experiencing the measuring and ranking of the

Most northern peatlands developed during the Holocene, sequestering large amounts of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems. However, recent syntheses have highlighted the gaps in our understanding of peatland carbon accumulation. Assessments of the long-Term carbon accumulation rate and possible warming-driven changes in these accumulation rates can therefore benefit from process-based modelling studie

Travel guidebooks are both travel information channels and objects of consumption. In contemporary tourism, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) make information abundant and mostly free of charge. Therefore, as tourists still buy them, there must be something that makes guidebooks a valuable object. This research aims at understanding the value of travel guidebooks in the digital age.

Radiation protection professionals are engaged in risk communication with various stakeholders to contribute to risk awareness, trust building, informed risk decisions, and advice for action. The newly launched IRPA guideline on risk communication has the objective to enthuse communication on radiation protection and provide experiences and techniques regarding this task. However, radiation protec

Objective: Public stigma of mental illness is still a major problem where numerous population studies during the last decade have mainly shown no improvements. A Swedish national antistigma campaign has been running 2010–2014. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in public stigma during this period as compared to baseline in 2009. Methods: Yearly population surveys were made between 20

During 2015 the struggles of people who searched to enter and move across Europe became increasingly intense with unthinkable numbers of deaths on the sea and other dangerous parts of the various alternative routes to and across Europe. Initially Europe witnessed a popular mobilisation of solidarity and demands for a humane response articulated through government officials as well as in the media.
