The aim of this study was to examine how participation in football associations can be used to enhance integration work and what challenges the football leaders meet in their work with youths with migrant backgrounds. I have conducted six qualitative semi-structured interviews with six leaders in different football associations. The empirical data was analyzed using theoretical concepts of social

Mental health problems are increasing among children and adolescents. School-based mindfulness interventions are gaining popularity worldwide and may be a way to decrease depression and anxiety symptoms in students. However, before introducing large-scale mindfulness interventions in school settings, more research is needed on feasible, easily applicable practices that are possible to fit in the s

Språklig mångfald är inget nytt, och inte heller något ovanligt, varken i Sverige eller i övriga världen. Cirka 200 olika språk talas i dagens Sverige och nästan alla världens språkfamiljer är representerade. Hur ser de ut? Hur används de? Hur lär man sig dem?De germanska språken är nära besläktade och har många gemensamma drag som vi kan känna igen. Andra språk kan se helt annorlunda ut. Genom at

LGBTIQ+ research acknowledges shared experiences of groups marginalized due to gender identities, sexualities, and sex characteristics. This universalist coalition approach has resulted in much affirmational research and progressive policy development. However, it risks homogenizing the unique experiences and needs of specific groups; a risk lessened by a particularist subgroup approach. In this t

Syftet med studien är att undersöka om corporate governance (CG) påverkar förekomsten av earnings management (EM) och huruvida det skiljer sig åt mellan branscher i Sverige. Studien är genomförd med en tvärsnittsdesign och följer en deduktiv ansats av kvantitativ karaktär. Studiens data tolkas och jämförs vidare med tidigare studier utifrån en multipel linjär regressionsanalys. I denna studie anvä

The aim of this prospective, international multicenter, pseudorandomized study comparing RICT HCT to standard-of-care chemotherapy in intermediate- or high-risk AML patients 50–70 years using the donor versus no-donor concept. Part 1 included only patients with potential family donors (RD) at the date of HLA-typing of the first potential sibling or CR-date, if later. Part 2 allowed the inclusion o

The status of the new injector system for MAX-lab is presented. The electron source is a thermionic RF-gun that has been designed at MAX-lab. The new injector will consist of two linac structures equipped with SLED cavities. This will produce an electron beam with an energy of 250 MeV. This beam will be recirculated in order to obtain a 500 MeV beam.

Capitalism drives the economy, environment and social reproduction into crises of exploitation and dualisms between and within people. Money as the medium constituting social relations embodies relations of exploitation and marginalisation. Analysing the relation of feminist leadership organisations as workplaces to their values, goals and missions reveals their contestation of the capitalist logi

With the acceleration of climate change and biodiversity loss in recent years, the neoliberal economic response to environmental challenges has been to integrate nature into market mechanisms, hoping to account for ecological degradation while funding nature conservation and restoration. This study critically examines the resulting financialisation of conservation, focussing on Scotland in particu

A platoon consists of a string of vehicles traveling close together. Such tight formation allows for increased road throughput and reduced fuel consumption due to decreased air resistance. Furthermore, sensors and control algorithms can be used to provide a high level of automation. In this context, safety - in terms of no rear-end collisions - is a key property that needs to be assured. We invest

To formally understand cyclicity in innovation and to tie to Schumpeter’s idea about waves of creative destruction, we elaborate upon Thomas Kuhn’s (1962) hypothesis that science evolves through a succession of paradigm life cycles by noting that entrepreneurs recognize the profitability of new scientific theories through a delay. The delay from innovation to entrepreneurship may be due to technol

This research presents a quest for the definition of “foreign direct investment” under the EU framework for FDI screening by the Member States, established by Regulation 2019/452 based on public policy and security. This Thesis argues that the scope of the current Regulation, excluding “indirect” FDI made by foreign investors via an EU subsidiary, coupled with the lenient, non-compulsory nature of

This study has been conducted in an effort to establish more suitable and accurate scoring model we use in everyday practice. Among the specific outcome prediction models, in 1989 Parsonnet et al elaborated a method of uniform risk stratification for evaluation of the results of cardiac surgery procedures. We have tested two forms of the Parsonnet score, Initial and Modified Parsonnet score, in ou

INTRODUCTION: Since their emergence, SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 have spread worldwide. We estimated the risk of hospitalisation and admission to an intensive care unit (ICU) for infections with B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 in Norway, compared to infections with non-VOC.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Using linked individual-level data from national registries, we conducted a cohort stu

In post-industrial society, creativity has become a universal remedy for a range of societal challenges. Policymakers increasingly design policies where the notion of creativity is central. This chapter takes a closer look at how policymakers seek to facilitate creative work, and why policy related to creative work assumes the form it does. The chapter draws empirically from a longitudinal study o
