Postgraduate education has been recognised as a key to bring about societal change. While further capacity building is imperative in this regard in East Africa (Wao et al., 2022), we will in this study focus on how supervisors function as important role models to their students (Brodin et al., 2020). We assume that supervisors’ own approaches to societal change affect their supervisor relationship
Kroppen har relevans för psykologi. Den är basen, alltid i bakgrunden av våra upplevelser, våra sinnestillstånd, och den är därmed alltid med i bakgrunden av psykopatologiska tillstånd. En bättre förståelse för kroppens betydelse för vår tillvaro och vårt varande är en första utgångspunkt. Ett huvudargument som förs i avhandlingen är att om psykopatologiska tillstånd som berör ens kroppslighet skaThe body holds relevance for psychology. The body is the basis, always in the background of our experiences, our states of mind, and therefore always in the background of psychopathological conditions.A better understanding of the body's significance is a first starting point. A main argument made in the thesis is that if we sincerely want to understand psychopathological states we need some basic
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Cardiometabolic traits are heritable, and some display parent-of-origin effects, which indicates preferential inheritance from one parent or parental bias. Most studies of these phenomena have focused on adult populations. We aimed to investigate the heritability and parent-of-origin effects on cardiometabolic traits in a birth cohort with serial measurements to determine whether
BACKGROUND: Few studies have explored the association between DNA methylation and physical activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of objectively measured hours of sedentary behavior (SB) and moderate physical activity (MPA) with DNA methylation. We further aimed to explore the association between SB or MPA related CpG sites and cardiometabolic traits, gene expression, and
BACKGROUND: Mitigation measures implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic led to significant changes in maternity care across Europe, including restrictions on companions during labor and birth.

Overview: Prostate cancer (PC)is the most common cancer in Sweden, and the leading cause of cancer death. Positronemission tomography with x-ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is an important imagingmethod for many cancers. A group of PET radiopharmaceuticals known as PSMA(prostate specific membrane antigen) ligands has been introduced for imaging ofPC. This thesis investigates aspects of the ligand
The legal form dictates the contours of law’s appearance. Texts are neatly divided into (often) numbered paragraphs. Pages must conform to specified layouts. Conventions regulate the use of fonts, punctuation and colours. Legal terms of art replace colloquial expressions. Human experiences enter legal texts only in mediated, sanitized forms. The dictats of legal form are all but incidental. They c
The current linear economic system is based on the extraction of natural resources, the transformation of raw materials and the disposal of waste, leading to the environmental and economic depletion of resources and society. The circular economy proposes the circularity of materials, evaluating post-consumption waste and proposing a waste hierarchy called preparation for reuse (PfR), as set out in
When applied to vertebrate vocalizations, source-filter theory, initially developed for human speech, has revolutionized our understanding of animal communication, resulting in major insights into the form and function of animal sounds. However, animal calls and human nonverbal vocalizations can differ qualitatively from human speech, often having more chaotic and higher-frequency sources, making
In recent years, a growing interest in sustainable tourism and outdoor recreation has emerged in Sweden and globally. While a positive development for many reasons, it coincides with other shifting patterns in recreational nature use, influenced by climate change, social media, and experimental interventions in natural areas. These developments bring opportunities to broaden participation, but als
This article is based on the author's involvement in preparing a Draft Statute for a future World Court of Human Rights. The proposal seeks to modify the traditional vertical structure of human rights norms by introducing a mechanism for adjudicating claims about human rights violations by actors other than states, including by international organizations (IO) or transnational corporations (TNC).
Objective: To provide a protocol for a scoping review aimed to map, identify, analyze and describe studies on women and their infants receiving Midwifery Continuity of Care in the Nordic countries. AbstractIntroduction: Midwifery Continuity of Care (MCoC) throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period has been associated with improved outcomes and higher satisfaction of care among women.
