Sentence Stress in Songs: The Potential of Using Authentic Songs for Teaching English Sentence Stress to EFL Learners in Swedish Lower-Secondary School

Using music as a tool for teaching a foreign language has been shown to positively affect the language learning process (Balčytytė-Kurtinienė, 2018; Cañete García et al., 2022; Heidari- Shahreza & Moinzadeh, 2012), and this essay suggests that authentic English songs can be used in the teaching of EFL in lower-secondary school in Sweden to efficiently meet many aspects of the syllabus. Therefo

Temporal trends in cardiovascular risk factors, lifestyle and secondary preventive medication for patients with myocardial infarction attending cardiac rehabilitation in Sweden 2006-2019 : a registry-based cohort study

Objectives Registries have been highlighted as means to improve quality of care. Here, we describe temporal trends in risk factors, lifestyle and preventive medication for patients after myocardial infarction (MI) registered in the quality registry Swedish Web-system for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-based care in Heart disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies (SWEDEHEART). D

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sick leave among healthcare workers : a register-based observational study

Objectives To assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sick leave among healthcare workers (HCWs) in primary and specialist care and examine its causes. Methods Using individual-level register data, we studied monthly proportions of sick leave (all-cause and not related to SARS-CoV-2 infection) from 2017 to February 2022 for all HCWs in primary (N=60 973) and specialist care (N=34 978) in Nor

Conviviality and Conscience: How Degrowth and Abolition Theory Critique and Re-envision Welfare States

Abolition theory and degrowth theory address important issues in the social-political world. An emergent discipline (in academia), abolition theory carefully dissects the ideological and historical underpinnings of the current system of police and prisons in the United States. It offers a systematic critique of their impact. Abolitionist scholars and activists also offer a creative framework for e

A well-conducted systematic review requires a scrupulous assessment of the design of included studies. This may unveil major issues in how studies were planned, conducted and reported. This section presents a few examples. 1) A Cochrane review on pain and sedation management in the newborn identified a study described as a randomized trial, which later, following communication with authors and the

Musikens Budskap - Mytologi och folktro som tema i instrumental konstmusik

Titel: Musikens Budskap - Mytologi och folktro som tema i instrumental konstmusik Författare: Erik Valdemar Sköld Handledare: Francisca Skoogh I denna skriftliga uppsats redogör jag för bakgrunden och arbetsprocessen till tre av mina egna kompositioner vars inspirationskälla och tema är kopplat till naturen och nordisk mytologi. Frågeställningen lyder följande: vilka tillvägagångssätt inom programIn this essay, I describe the background to and work process behind three of my own compositions which are inspired by nature and Nordic mythology. I asked myself: which approaches, from programmatic music throughout history, can I use in my own work as a composer? I go through some historical examples that use references to nature, and summarise literature about program music and affects, in orde

Health-related quality of life and everyday life for children with right ventricular outflow tract anomalies. Perspectives from children and parents.

Background: Children with right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) anomaliestypically undergo surgical repair during their first months of life and thereafter they will need one or more reoperations through their life.Aims: The overall aim was to describe health-related quality of life (HRQoL) forchildren with congenital heart disease (CHD) with a special focus on children withRVOT anomalies and to

“Human Spiders”: Intellectual Observers, Degeneration and Darwinism in H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine

H.G. Wells’ novella The Time Machine (1895) tells the story of The Time Traveller who travels to the year 802,701. There, he encounters two evolutionary progressions of humanity. One, Morlocks, have been read as representations of Victorian workers and poor, and the other, the Elois, as representations of the aristocracy. The Time Traveller represents the middle class. The novella is often seen as

Disc population synthesis : Decrease in the solid mass reservoir through pebble drift

Surveys of star-forming regions reveal that the dust mass of protoplanetary discs decreases by several orders of magnitude on timescales of a few million years. This decrease in the mass budget of solids is likely due to the radial drift of millimetre (mm) sized solids, called pebbles, induced by gas drag. However, quantifying the evolution of this dust component in young stellar clusters is diffi

Impact of string interactions on the space–time evolution of hadronic vertices

We investigate the space–time picture of string evolution and hadron production in a fully string-based model for high energy collisions involving heavy-ions. We find that although the density of strings is quite large at the time of hadronization in a central heavy-ion collision, the initial overlap between them right after the collisions is not necessarily large. We also find that when including

Representera mera? : arkivariers förståelse av representation och personarkiv

The aim of this master’s thesis is to contribute to a deeper understanding of the concept of representation in relation to personal archives. By examining how archivists understand and relate to the concept of representation in their professional role as well as in their work with personal archives, the intention is to clarify the practical implications of the concept. Empirical data has been gath

Ambulance clinicians’ understanding of older patients’ self-determination: A vignette study

BackgroundOlder patients are often vulnerable and highly dependent on healthcare professionals’ assessment in the event of acute illness. In the context of ambulance services, this poses challenges as the assessment is normally conducted with a focus on identifying life-threatening conditions. Such assessment is not fully satisfactory in a patient relationship that also aims to promote and protect
