In Colombia, indigenous leaders and organizations claim that among the problems that indigenous youth face in relation to their participation in conventional higher education there is the potential loss of their indigenous identity and their acculturation (Muñoz 2007; ONIC, et al. 2004; Green et al. 2004). In the light of these claims, this thesis explores how indigenous students experience their
Den här studien undersökte effekter av en stresshanteringsintervention, som genomfördes med åtta elever på en svensk gymnasieskola under hösten 2015. Hypoteserna inför projektet var att interventionen som varade under åtta veckor skulle ha en positiv effekt på användandet av adaptiva copingstrategier samt reducera upplevd stressnivå och öka självskattad hälsa.

Studien undersökte hur delad närvaro med en vuxen kring en berättelse påverkade barns perspektivtagande. 3-4-åringars ögonrörelser studerades medan de såg på en false belief (FB)-film. I filmen får protagonisten en FB då hens flygplan flyttas medan hen inte är närvarande. Studien undersökte om barn som delat närvaro med en vuxen under filmvisningen (tillsammansittande) i högre utsträckning svaradeThis study investigated how jointly attending to a story with an adult influenced children’s ability to take another person’s perspective. Eye movements of children 3-4 years old were studied while they watched a false belief (FB)-movie. In the movie an airplane moves when the protagonist is absent, hence the protagonist gets a FB.

The aim of the study is to see which factors are the most significant for the ability to reproduce the sequence of events during a rescue operation.

There has been intense research in vehicular communication in order to provide reliable low-latency vehicular communication links for developing intelligent transportation system (ITS). As one of the important properties, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is learned to be inherently non-stationary due to the high mobility of both transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX). Therefore, the V2V system b
The present study investigates the importance of the male characters in four short stories written by women. Said stories are: “La culpa es de los Tlaxcaltecas” by Elena Garro, “Lección de cocina” and “Cabecita blanca” by Rosario Castellanos and “La muñeca menor” de Rosario Ferré. The aim of the study is to break the prevailing trend of analyzing this type of literature from a perspective where fo
Denna uppsats argumenterar för att organisationer och arbetsliv sedan 1950-talet präglats av en dikomisering mellan två perspektiv: kognitivism och konstruktivism. Ingetdera av dessa når enligt uppsatsen upp till förväntningarna om en hållbar teori och praktik. Kognitivismen har ett fundament av alltför naiva sanningsanspråk, vilket gör att den kollapsar in i en paradox. Konstruktivismen å andra s
