Vissa forskare har spekulerat i att MDMA är ett preparat som skulle kunna underlätta psykoterapi, inte minst för människor som lider av trauma och/eller PTSD (posttraumatiskt stressyndrom). Sedan år 2008 har ett fåtal RCT-studier kring saken publicerats.

Tidigare forskning har uppmärksammat en ökning av stressrelaterade symtom hos svenska skolungdomar. Ur ett folkhälsoperspektiv finns det vinster i riktade insatser till denna grupp, inte minst för gymnasieelever som står nära inträde till arbetsmarknaden. Ett begrepp som har uppmärksammats i relation till långvarig stress är utmattningssyndrom. Ett liknande symtomkluster som beskrivs i konstruktetStress-related symptoms are increasing amongst Swedish youth.

Traditionella binära könsstereotyper utmanas idag allt mer av könsöverskridande uttryck i ett pågående globalt samhällsskifte som i synnerhet märks av i Sverige. Parallellt med detta samhällsskifte utmanas även tidigare forskning i hur varumärken kommunicerar könsuttryck, vilket möjliggör för ett ökat antal varumärkesgenuspositioner. Trots att en androgyn genusposition beskrivs som mest gynnsam ärTraditional binary gender stereotypes are increasingly being challenged by gender fluid expressions in an ongoing global societal shift that is particularly noticeable in Sweden. Parallel with this societal change, previous research on how brands communicate gender expressions is also being challenged, which enables an increased number of brand gender positions. Although an androgynous brand gende

Internet KBT (IKBT) har funnits för vuxna sedan slutet av 1990-talet. Under senare år har IKBT utvecklats för barn och ungdomar men forskningen är begränsad. IKBT-programmet ”Ångesthjälpen ung” implementerades på BUP i Region Skåne 2017. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka föräldrarnas uppfattning av programmet ”Ångesthjälpen ung” beroende på deras tillgång till föräldramoduler eller ej, saInternet CBT (ICBT) has been around for adults since the late 1990s.

Denna studie syftar till att förstå de utmaningar en offentlig myndighet står inför när den försöker balansera en historiskt sett byråkratisk kommunikation med nya, moderna kommunikationsstrategier på sociala medier. Mer specifikt syftar studien till att förstå hur den svenska polisen hanterar dessa utmaningar och hur deras kommunikation påverkar diskurser och polisens identitet. Detta analyseras

Self-determination theory utgår från att autonomi, att frivilligt kunna och vilja bestämma över sina handlingar och beteende, är ett grundläggande behov för psykologisk utveckling och välbefinnande. Autonomi förmodas även spela en avgörande roll i att främja inre motivation på arbetet. Denna studie anammar ett self-determination theory perspektiv och syftar till att kvantitativt undersöka relationSelf-determination theory posits that autonomy, the experience of acting from choice rather than from external pressure, is essential for psychological well-being and development. Additionally, autonomy is thought to have a crucial role in facilitating intrinsic motivation in the workplace. Adopting a self-determination theory perspective, this thesis aimed to quantitatively study the relationship
