Therefore, it is important to gain a deeper understanding of how sexsomnia manifests with
Objectives: Wildlife in Kenya, much like globally, is under significant pressure. In Kenya alone, there has been a 60 percent decrease in species and the remaining wildlife is faced with habitat loss and climate change, among others. The study of conservation practices - responding to the many challenges underlying the “sixth mass extinction” - has never been more relevant. All the more so is the
Syfte: Syftet med arbetet är att jämföra byggmetoderna stolpverk och regelverk ur aspekterna tid, kostnad, materialåtgång, byggnadsmetoder, kompetens och design. Frågorna man ställde var: Frågeställning: Hur skiljer sig ett hus byggt med stolpverks metoden kontra ett likvärdigt hus byggt med regelverks metoden? Vilka för- och nackdelar finns det med stolpverkshus jämfört med regelverkshus? MeAim: The purpose of the work is to compare construction methods of timber framing and stud framing from the aspects of time, cost, material consumption, construction methods, competence and design. The questions asked were: Research questions: How does a house built with the timber frame method differ from an equivalent house built with the stud framing method? What are the advantages and disad
In this thesis, two methods were developed for a web-based GIS to make the spatial perspective of flood disaster risk reduction and response accessible. Flood disaster can cause major disruption to the street network, which further affects the emergency services and evacuation work in finding the safest and fastest routes. Thus, a method for dynamic street network analysis was developed and implem
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the cutdowns and the savings can have an effect on the health and the wellbeing of the personnel on the basis of their own stories as well as the meaning of the different leading styles that are used on the daily basis and how that can matter on the creation of a more healthy workplace. The starting point of this study is the experiences of the pers
The proliferation of poverty and global inequality between and within the countries has resulted in an emerging consensus among the actors in the field of international development on the importance of social policies in the process of development. One type of social policy measures employed to tackle poverty is Conditional Cash Transfers (CCT). These have been formed within the World Bank Group a

The target development process for this investigation was a development process at a section in the department Application and Service at Sony Mobile Communications AB in Lund, Sweden. The first goal of the thesis was to provide the section with a set
In Sweden, the 1970s saw widespread public concerns about data privacy. The use of computers in the 1970 census sparked debate, and in 1973 Sweden's data privacy law, datalagen, came into force. In 1980, a parliamentary delegation was tasked with investigating further options for political action. In the years around 1980, computers, and how they should be used, was a topic of hot political and pu
Sustainability has become one of the key challenges in the fashion industry, which has been criticized for intense resource use, severe environmental impacts and wasteful business model. There have been a lot of new attempts and initiatives to promote sustainable fashion consumption. Collaborative consumption has been highlighted as one of the alternatives to conventional mass consumption. The ide
The reality in terms of operational competence has changed. The past tradition of assessing procedural compliance of the individual Air Traffic Controller is today challenged in a dynamic and intractable socio-technical system like Air Traffic Management. Changes in technology and complex system interdependencies, call for an enhanced understanding of the interaction and coupling between the human
The aim of this study was to examine what factors that affect social workers, at the social services in Sweden, assessments regarding support for clients having problems with drug abuse. More specifically the aim was to find out how the social workers own perceptions regarding clients who use narcotics affect their assessments in relation to their depth of discretion and the clients motivation for
Background: Obesity among women of childbearing age is a rising public health concern due to risks of adverse outcomes and long-term obesity for the mother and child. Addressing maternal obesity through effective lifestyle interventions is important and understanding the challenges that accompany successful behaviour change may assist in ensuring long-term health benefits. Aim: To explore obese wo
The risk for drinking water scarcity does not only concern developing countries and arid places. In its 2023 report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has identified water scarcity as one of Europe’s key risks out of five in the foreseeable future. Sweden experiences water shortages more and more frequently during summer, and the need to protect groundwater resources is imperative. In
Digital platforms have become a crucial tool for career planning, especially for young people in the beginning of their careers. Today’s students must navigate numerous career options while adapting to new digital norms around personal branding and showcasing success. These platforms provide valuable opportunities for inspiration and building a professional identity, enhancing career planning. How
The contemporary tourism industry operates within a market-oriented and rationalised logic where risk and uncertainty are primarily perceived as sources of value destruction. While such an approach provides safety and convenience, it simultaneously reduces the spontaneity and unpredictability associated with the unknown. At the same time, the opposite end of the tourism spectrum — unconventional t
In this thesis I have attempted to explore flexibility of work outside the sectors which are most often associated with the concept of flexibility in ‘the new economy’, e.g. work in ICT-sectors. Through a case study of cleaners and cleaning work in Sweden I have attempted to discuss both how flexibility is represented and how consequences of flexibility can be understood in relation to experiences
