Heart rate variability (HRV) describes the variations in time intervals between heartbeats. The signals are usually recorded from electrocardiogram (ECG) beat detection. In this thesis, HRV signals of 97 participants were analyzed using spectral and statistical analysis. The signals are non-stationary, however, the data was treated approximately short time stationary. Using spectral analysis, powe
Studiens syfte var att undersöka vilka patienter med depressionsdiagnos som behandlats med individuell psykoterapi hos psykolog inom psykiatriska öppenvården vid Psykiatri Affektiva, Sahlgrenska Universitetssjukhuset åren 2013 till 2023.

The UN-affiliated World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that in 2019, more than 90 % of people living on Earth were constantly exposed to concentrations of ambient outdoor pollutants higher than the air quality guideline limits. One of the most notorious air pollutants is particulate matter, consisting of fine natural or anthropogenic particles suspended in the air. Recent studies have shown t
In pursuit of energy efficiency and sustainable development, goals have been set by the EU and Sweden to improve the energy performance of buildings and reduce their environmental impact. Renovating the existing building stock is a path to achieving the energy and climate goals. This study investigates and analyses various retrofitting options for multifamily residential buildings in Skåne, Sweden
Energy efficiency is key in our modern society, and in its pursuit, unexpected problems can appear. For instance, when Axis Communications in the pursuit of image quality and energy efficiency used strobing IR-illumination to illuminate for their global shutter cameras, they observed an artefact in the form of a white band in their rolling shutter cameras. The purpose of this thesis is to find a s
The use of cannabis has increased in Sweden, and Malmö is one of the cities in which a big part of the inhabitants have tried the illicit drug. At the same time, the government works to increase the sanctions on cannabis use and possession. Thus, since the legislation on cannabis in Sweden is becoming more strict while a big part of Malmös citizens use cannabis, this study has aimed to investigate
This qualitative study examines the experiences of particularly vulnerable girls affected by child marriage and prostitution in Kenya, with the aim of exploring how social control mechanisms and gender inequality perpetuate these harmful practices. By using a thematic analysis approach within the theoretical framework of social control theory, primary and secondary deviance and dominance theory, t
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) uses transit photometry to detect exoplanets. To confirm if it is a planet, a second detection method is used to determine the planet's mass. But with the number of candidates waiting for confirmation, statistical tools have been developed to validate exoplanets so that false positives could be ruled out quickly. One such tool is the Tool for Ra
This bachelor thesis aims to delve into the emotional responses of young men residing in urban areas in Malmö, to the evolving legal framework, with a specific focus on their legal awareness using relevant legal documents pertaining to recent amendments in the policing legislation (1984:387) regarding the criticized policing method of visitationszoner. The research involved semi structured intervi
This thesis explores the sociomaterial dynamics involved in the migration process to a new library system, specifically focusing on the case of Quria, developed by Axiell and launched in 2017. Using a sociomaterial perspective the study examines how this technological transition affects the social structures within library organizations. The research is based on qualitative data collected through
In this thesis, I attempt to categorize variable stars found with the OGLE telescope with the main aim being to find binaries containing white dwarfs. To do this, I combine light curve data from the OGLE telescope with data from the large Gaia EDR3 catalogue and a recently published 3-dimensional extinction map to gather the colour and absolute magnitude of the binary stars. Lastly, I use an artif
Dagens alltmer retributiva kriminalpolitik utgör en bakgrund till att medling vid brott för unga lagöverträdare har identifierats som ett ämne som är värt att undersöka närmare. Studiens syfte är att belysa hur medlare i Skåne beskriver och uppfattar medlingens praktik, med fokus på de hinder som medlingsverksamheten står inför och som tycks begränsa dess potential. Empirin består av sex intervjue
In early 2024, the UN reported that we need to consume less to save the climate and achieve the global sustainability goals. Since the fashion industry is driven by consumption, this essay explores how the Swedish fashion industry communicates when it comes to consumption. By analyzing consumption discourses in the sustainability reports of three Swedish fashion companies, this essay examines whet
This study investigates the creation of economic value within the Product Life Extension (PLE) business model, focusing on how specific product categories and characteristics impact the retention of value and revenue streams of PLE firms. Using Godsinlösen AB as a case study, the research quantitatively examines sales data to explore the retention of product value and consumer preferences for reus
This study examines the sustainability reporting practices of firms in Italy (mandatory disclosure) and China (voluntary disclosure). Using a qualitative descriptive design and content analysis with NVivo, the sustainability reports of large manufacturing companies with high ESG ratings from both countries are analyzed based on GRI guidelines. Institutional theory is applied to understand the infl
This thesis strives to investigate and make sense of the complex regulations surrounding the availability of exploitable land along bodies of water in Sweden. With the Shore Protection regulations found in the Swedish Environmental Code it becomes apparent that most sought after land along the sea, lakes and running water for planning and construction in accordance to the Planning and Building Act
Samhällets digitalisering har medfört en accelererande omsättning och användning av datorer i skolan. Den hastiga utvecklingen har gjort att forskningen inte har kunnat hålla jämna steg med den digitaliserade undervisningspraktiken, däribland övergången från lärares användande av traditionella läroböcker till digitala läromedel. Examensarbetet syftar därför till att öka förståelsen för hur gymnasi
