Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur biståndshandläggare och kuratorer, som möter äldre i sitt dagliga arbete, resonerar kring samverkan mellan socialtjänst och hälso– och sjukvården när det kommer till äldres psykiska ohälsa. Studien var av kvalitativ karaktär och innefattade sex semi-strukturerade intervjuer med tre biståndshandläggare inom äldreomsorgen och tre kuratorer inom hälso- och sjuThe purpose of this study was to explore how care managers and counsellors, who meet seniors in their daily work, experience the interaction between social services and health care when it comes to the elderly's mental illness. The study had a qualitative approach and included six semi structured interviews with three care managers in senior care and three counsellors in health care. Questions

Within the last decade, the alt-right movement has migrated from secluded corners of the internet into mainstream media. This migration, and subsequently gained following, challenges traditional views on security by bringing forth social actors that securitize, despite a lack of authority. This takes place on online platforms, such as YouTube, where the political and non-political coexist. This t

My aim of the project was to create a table with the same purpose as the Memphis Group had in the 1980s, furniture that does not have the function as the main topic, the experimental playfulness with shapes, materials, and colors are the primary. My method has focused on the Memphis Group's philosophy, to be inspired by the coloring, design of volumes and materials, and also the aim of provoc

Tidigare forskning har pekat på betydelsen av kundrecensioner och e-förtroendets förhållande till användandet av kundrecensioner. Det har dock varit svårt att kartlägga e-förtroendets påverkan på användbarheten och vilka av kundrecensionens egenskaper som är användbara eftersom den tidigare forskningens resultat varit delvis inkonsekvent. Syftet med denna studie har varit att förstå förhållandet m

1. Conservation biology has traditionally neglected evolutionary processes, which are however fundamental in both the emergence and maintenance of biodiversity. Understanding adaptation can further allow conservationist to make predictions for species responses to changing environments which are vulnerable to climate change, such as mountain areas. 2. The size of a population is often important f

Insekters DNA i luften? På senare år har flera forskningsrapporter visat att olika insektgrupper drastiskt minskar i antal. Till följd av detta kan man även se att artkompositionen förändrats och att andra organismer som är beroende av insekter, antingen för pollinering eller som föda, också minskar i antal. För att kunna förstå varför dessa förändringar sker så krävs en kontinuerlig övervakning In the face of widely reported declines in insect abundance and diversity, there is a great need for faster and easier insect monitoring methods as the already established methods are time consuming and only target specific species groups. In this study I investigate if metabarcoding of eDNA samples collected from the air can i) detect and identify insect species, ii) help quantify spatial and tem

Aromatic amines are important chemical building blocks used in the pharmaceutical, food and agricultural industries. Greener methods, such as biocatalysis, using renewable feedstocks are needed to replace current synthesis strategies that rely on petrochemicals to achieve a more sustainable amine production. Aromatic amines may be produced from lignin, which is an abundant source of renewable arom

Every laboratory involved with liquid chromatography (LC) has to solve the issue of a supply of mobile phase. In the case of reversed-phase liquid chromatography the mobile phase is polar in nature and most commonly aqueous solutions. With a source of distilled water in-house the possibility of creating a mobile phase supply is within reach. A pair of retired LC systems is being repurposed for an

Although the interpretation process of emotional meaning through email communication has been researched through a broad set of theoretical lenses, this particular area of research has not adequately addressed this process of deriving emotional meaning within the scope of the modern multicultural organization. The cultural diversity found in modern global organizations fosters the research inquiry

The present study examines in a quantitative and qualitative manner the foreign language enjoyment (FLE), and partially foreign language anxiety (FLCA), in the specific context of highschool students in Sweden. The 108 participants have completed a survey of 18 quantitative components (Likert scales). Three open questions asking to describe episodes during their French classes where they felt enjo

Using machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies, voice assistant (VA) has become a new social phenomenon and a market game changer in multiple industries. This thesis focuses on the strategic communication challenges brought about by the VA. The researcher applies the theoretical framework of the communication value circle (CVC) and the gatekeeping theory (GK), adopting the applied

Happiness is an affect. Affects are thought to be part of our subjective experiences. In the past, human beings have constructed complex relationships with happiness outside of ourselves. Since sociocultural values laden to happiness established various linkages with objects, happiness seemed to become materialised and accessible, which is expressed, for example, as the UN’s World Happiness Report

This study analyzes a no-win situation in which the Swedish public organization Socialstyrelsen were not able to achieve strategic goals, with the organizations mandate going against prevalent moral cultural ideals. When attempting to perform their mandate Socialstyrelsen was suddenly hit by an online firestorm, hurting their reputation and hindering them in performing their democratic responsibil

Female genital mutilation is a convention that is mainly practiced in about thirty African countries and in some countries in the Middle East and Asia. The topic has become more relevant in Sweden due to increased migration. While female genital mutilation is often referred to as a foreign phenomenon mass media is a main source of information. The purpose of this study was to explore how the conve

Under flyktingsituationen 2015 genomförde Socialdemokraterna i regeringsställning en hastig omläggning från en generös till en restriktiv flyktingpolitik. Omläggningen i denna värdeladdade fråga skapade debatt inom partiet men etablerades likafullt som partiets nya hållning. Vad händer hos en organisations medlemmar när något som traditionellt varit en central del i organisationens identitet förän

This research is concerned with Romani media activists’ use of different online platforms in order to counter the stereotypical representation of Roma in dominant discourses, such as in mass media and state policies. Links are made between these platforms and the cultural context of Sweden that they are set in. Additionally, the following explores these platforms in connection to collective identi

Green marketing communication in the tour operating business is an emerging field of research. In recognition of green marketing communication researchers’ and practitioners’ within the tour operating business need to achieve a more profound understanding of legitimate green marketing communication. This is because of societies and especially millennials increasing sensitivity and scepticism towar

Enhanced antibiotic tolerance occurred in multi-species biofilms Multi-species biofilms existing in Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) are likely to influence the property of each species, owing to high-density biomass and constant sub-lethal concentration of antibiotics. Research on biofilms had gathered an understanding that biofilms contribute to antibiotic tolerance among bacteria that hinder
