Syftet med studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan religiös coping och situationsrelaterad ångest vid stressfulla livssituationer. Internationell forskning har tidigare studerat användandet av religiös coping vid livssituationer av stressande slag och visat att religiös coping kan påverka upplevd ångest, men i svensk kontext är området tämligen outforskat. Denna studie ämnade således att bidra The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between religious coping and state anxiety in the context of stressful life events. Previous international research has investigated the use of religious coping in response to stressful life events and has shown that religious coping may influence perceived anxiety. However, this area remains relatively unexplored in a Swedish context. T

Självkonkordansmodellen (The Self-Concordance Model) postulerar att autonom målsättning är en primär drivkraft för välbefinnande. Standardiserade mätmetoder sammanblandar dock ofta närvaron av autonomi med frånvaron av yttre press genom användandet av 'relativa' differenspoäng. Denna studie använde ett aggregerat dataset (N = 429) för att systematiskt pröva två konkurrerande modeller: en BThe Self-Concordance Model posits that autonomous goal pursuit is a primary driver of well-being, yet standard measurement practices often conflate the presence of autonomy with the absence of external pressure via 'relative' difference scores. This study utilized a high-powered dataset (N = 429) to systematically test between a Balance Model (where meaning arises from the net difference b

Organisatoriska förändringar är ofta förknippade med ökade krav och osäkerhet, vilket ställer höga krav på individers psykologiska resurser. I kontexter präglade av förändring framstår change efficacy, individers tilltro till individuell och kollektiv förmåga att bidra till och hantera organisatorisk förändring, som en central komponent i förändringsberedskap. Samtidigt finns ett behov av fördjupaOrganizational change is often associated with increased demands and uncertainty, placing substantial strain on individuals’ psychological resources. In such contexts, change efficacy, defined as individuals’ confidence in their individual and the collective ability to contribute to and cope with organizational change, constitutes a key component of change readiness. However, there is a need for g

Denna kandidatuppsats är en kvalitativ studie med syfte att undersöka legitimerade psykologers, psykoterapeuters och samtalsterapeuters upplevelser av Somatic Experiencing (SE) som terapeutisk metod.

Research on SE remains limited, and to date there is no previous research focusing on therapists’ own experiences of working wi

The real estate profession is characterized by high demands on availability, irregular working hours and a boundaryless work pattern, in which the boundaries between work and private life are often unclear. Previous research and industry reports suggest that such working conditions can contribute to elevated stress, impaired work-life balance, and reduced psychological well-being. Against this bac

Till följd av den ökade digitaliseringen av handel och marknadsföring har använd-ningen av varumärken ökat i gränsöverskridande och digitala sammanhang. Varu-märkesrätten är däremot uppbyggt med utgångspunkt i territorialitet, vilket skapar rättsliga utmaningar när användning av varumärken sker i sammanhang där dess geografiska plats inte kan avgränsas. Dessa utmaningar blir särskilt aktuella inomBecause of the increased digitalization of trade and marketing, the use of trademarks in cross-border online environments has as a result increased as well. The trade-mark-law is on the contrary based on the principle of territoriality, which creates legal challenges in situations where trademarks are used with uncertainty of its geo-graphical location. These challenges are especially relevant wit

Byggsektorn står för 22 procent av Sveriges utsläpp av växthusgaser, där byggskedet enskilt står för störst klimatpåverkan under en byggnads livscykel. Trots minskade utsläpp från uppvärmning har byggskedets utsläpp förblivit oförändrat. För att nå målet om nettonollutsläpp 2045 har det bland annat föreslagits minskad materialanvändning och lägre klimatpåverkan från byggmaterial. Det har också uppThe construction sector accounts for 22 percent of Sweden's greenhouse gas emissions, with the construction phase being the single most climate impacting stage. Despite reduced emissions from heating, emissions from the construction phase have remained unchanged. To achieve the goal of net-zero emissions by 2045, measures such as reduced material use and lowered climate impact from building ma

Neural induction is a process where naive cells are converted into committed cells with neural characteristics, and it occurs at the earliest step during embryogenesis. Although the signaling molecules and chromatin remodeling for neural induction have been identified, the mutual relationships between these molecules are yet to be fully understood. By taking advantage of the neural differentiation

During development, the hypothalamus emerges from the ventral diencephalon and is regionalized into several distinct functional domains. Each domain is characterized by a different combination of transcription factors, including Nkx2.1, Nkx2.2, Pax6, and Rx, which are expressed in the presumptive hypothalamus and its surrounding regions, and play critical roles in defining each area. Here, we reca

Understanding the molecular mechanisms leading to retinal development is of great interest for both basic scientific and clinical applications. Several signaling molecules and transcription factors involved in retinal development have been isolated and analyzed; however, determining the direct impact of the loss of a specific molecule is problematic, due to difficulties in identifying the correspo
