Studien undersökte förekomsten av moralisk stress bland SiS-personal och dess relation till coping, psykologisk flexibilitet, stress och empati. Moralisk stress uppkommer i situationer där personer, i sin professionella yrkesroll, upplever att de inte kan agera efter vad de upplever är etiskt eller moraliskt korrekt på grund av institutionella begränsningar. Tidigare studier utförd på hälso-och sjThis study investigated the frequency of moral distress among staff in the Swedish organization SiS. Moral distress arises in situations where people, in their professional role, experience that they cannot act in accordance with what they deem to be morally correct because of institutional limits. Earlier studies among healthcare staff have shown that moral distress have negative consequences for

Bakgrund: Naturen har potentiellt positiv effekt på mental hälsa, vilket kan användas inom rehabilitering. Forskning har bedrivits på ämnet inom psykologi, landskapsarkitektur och stadsplanering. Det finns studier som undersöker naturbaserade interventioners (NBI) effekter i rehabiliteringsträdgård, men inte av NBI förlagd i allmän miljö. Syfte: Syftet är att kartlägga innehåll, genomförande och eBackground: Nature's potentially positive effect on human health may be used for rehabilitation purposes. This is researched in the field of psychology, landscape planning and urban planning. There are studies of the effect of nature-based interventions (NBI) located in rehabilitation gardens, but not of NBI in public nature-environments. Aim: to survey the content, implementation and effects

This thesis studies the potential economic effects of a menstrual leave pol- icy introduction in Sweden. With a basis in agency theory and previous research on insurance behavior, the Swedish sickness insurance system is an- alyzed alongside collected data from a survey conducted for the study. The Swedish sickness insurance system is found to not sufficiently support individ- uals in frequent nee

Social factors within educational settings have been repeatedly highlighted as a key determinant of students' academic achievements and school success. This thesis investigates the interplay between peer relations, social belonging, cultural identity, school culture, and academic outcomes in Swedish upper secondary schools.

Södervärns vattentorn är kanske en av Malmös mest kända byggnader. Sen det stod klart 1916 och fram tills det togs ur bruk 2015 har det försett Malmö­iterna­ med dricksvatten. Efter tornet slutat att användas som vattentorn har en debatt hållits kring vad som skall ske med tornet utan resultat. Detta examensarbete svarar på denna fråga baserat på en analys av byggnaden och ett gestaltningsförslag Södervärn’s water tower is probably one of Malmö’s most iconic building. Since its construction in 1916 and until it was taken out of use in 2015 it has provided the citizens of Malmö with drinking water. Ever since the decicion to exlcude the tower as a part of the city’s water system, a debate has been held on what shall become of the tower, without leading to any decisive decisions. This thesis

The legalization of marijuana in the United States has prompted extensive debate and research, particularly concerning its impacts on various societal aspects. This study examines the influence of marijuana legalization on university education by comparing three Pacific Northwest states: Oregon (OR) and Washington (WA), which have legalized marijuana, and Idaho (ID), which maintains prohibition. T

In recent years, researchers worldwide have become increasingly interested in the phenomenon of code-switching in the multilingual classroom. The paper aims to try to understand when and why teachers in Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) schools code-switch in their classrooms. It analyses the methods and reasons for teachers’ code-switching in the SFI classroom. A case study was conducted by means of a

As additive manufacturing technology within the aerospace sector advances rapidly, optimizing process monitoring methods has become increasingly critical, given that existing techniques remain costly and time-consuming. This study presents a novel approach to monitoring the laser metal deposition (LMD) process, emphasizing real-time anomaly detection through the analysis and prediction of frames f

Democracy has been the cornerstone of the European Union since its foundation, however, since Viktor Orbán and his Fidesz party took office, what has been happening in Hungary is greatly undermining the democratic values in the EU. In that context, this thesis seeks to examine what results in the democratic backsliding in a country which was once one of the most successful stories of democratizati

Studiens syfte är att undersöka vad som motiverar unga vuxna att använda sig av sociala medier, hur deras användande ser ut, vilket typ av innehåll de får upp och deras upplevelser kring det innehåll som presenteras för dem. Studien utgår främst från den kvalitativa metoden fokusgruppsintervjuer, och det transkriberade innehållet analyserades sedan genom kodningsmetoden Summary-based reporting. Fo

This qualitative study aimed to explore the experiences related to the integration process in the Swedish labor market of highly educated female refugees who fled from Syria to Sweden between the years of 2014 to 2021. Interviews were conducted with a total of seven women who, at the time of their interviews, were in different stages of integration into the labor market. Three of the women that we

After having decided to continue my musical career as a piano collaborator, I opted to examine the area of study more specifically. This study aims to identify the fundamental competencies for professional collaborators. I intend to highlight some of the challenges, key features, and difficulties that I may face during the process, as well as investigate how a revised view of being a collaborative

Mänskliga rättigheter inom kommuner och andra lokala organisationer är ett komplext ämne. I den lokala verkligheten finns det svårigheter att applicera mänskliga rättigheter på arbetet. Kommunen styrs av policyer, styrdokument, budget och visioner, men dessa kan vara svåra att förstå i den egna verksamheten. Malmö stad är en kommun med ett välfungerande arbete med mänskliga rättigheter, men även dHuman Rights within municipalities and other local organisations is a complex subject. In the local reality, there are difficulties in applying human rights at work. The municipality is governed by policies, governing documents, budgets and visions, but these can be difficult to understand in one's own operations. The city of Malmö is a municipality with a well-functioning work with human righ

In this thesis we use theory of branch groups and profinite groups to find infinite finitely generated residually finite torsion-free groups whose profinite completions are pro-p. We achieve this by defining a property analogous to the congruence subgroup property of integer matrix groups, which most GGS-groups satisfy, and use this to show that the commutator subgroups of such groups has pro-p pr

This thesis explores the divergent economic trajectories of Taiwan and China, focusing on how institutional differences shaped their respective economic structures. Through a comparative analysis, the study investigates the role of political institutions in driving Taiwan’s emergence as a knowledge-based economy (KBE) and China’s continued reliance on labor-intensive manufacturing. Despite similar

This paper applies the GARCH-MIDAS (mixed data sampling) framework to examine if geopolitical risk indices (GPR) have predictive ability when forecasting stock market volatility in advanced economies. Stock market indices and country-specific GPR indices from 21 advanced economies are used to examine the out-of-sample predictability of short-term total variance and long-term variance. The main fin
