Sammanfattning Människans rätt till självbestämmande är en grundläggande rättighet som i de allra flesta sammanhang i livet tillskrivs stor betydelse. Även inom hälso- och sjukvården betonas respekten för människans integritet och autonomi. När det gäller livets slutskede och människans rätt att styra över hur och när hon vill avsluta sitt liv får självbestämmanderätten emellertid vika till förmåSummary The human right to self-determination is a fundamental right, which in most situations in life is considered to be of high importance. This approach also applies in the department of medical care, in which the respect for the individual integrity and autonomy is emphasized. Regarding the final stages of life, the right to self-determination and the right to control how and when a person w

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling är en sammanläggningsavhandling som består av fyra artiklar inom arbetsmarknadsområdet. Den första artikeln behandlar en personalförstärkning till arbetsförmedlingen. Metoden har bestått i att jämföra tre arbetsförmedlingskontor som erhållit stora personalförstärkningar med tre kontor som inte fått någon personalförstärkning alls. Resultaten tyder på atThis thesis results from four research projects. The issues addressed in the projects are different types of labour market information problems. The purpose of the first article is to contribute to a better empirical under- standning of how an increase of staff at the Public Employment Service affects job seekers. In 1987, the Swedish Government decided to grant the Labour Market Administration ex

Presented to 42 schizophrenic patients and 19 normals, by means of a percept-genetic technique, two motifs of mother and infant in close interaction (feeding and nursing) . The motifs were tagged, by subliminal presentation, with aggressive resp. "healing" sentences, in a balanced design. No effects of this tagging were discernible. A cluster-analysis (Ward s method) of the material yielded 4 fair

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur kan man förklara vardagligt tänkande med de kognitiva teorier som finns tillhands idag? Ofta är dessa teorier konstruerade för att kunna förutsäga beteende under kontrollerade omständigheter, som i ett laboratorium. Å andra sidan är det snarare flexibilitet och improvisation som kännetecknar det vardagliga tänkandet. I avhandlingen försöker jag ta reda pa vad man måHow well can we explain natural occurrences of cognitive behaviours given the theoretical frameworks available to us today? The thesis explores what has to be assumed in cognitive theory in order to provide such an explanation, in contrast to being able to predict behaviour under controlled circumstances. The behaviours considered are all of the type described as involving higher level cognition

This essay discusses the Nordic region Bohuslän the decade after it became "Swedish" in 1658, during what I call the region's "transition period". The wide cause of the study is to show how the traditional understanding of this state shift (and of state shifts in general) need to be problemized and understood in the light of the state conditions of Early Modern Europe. By e

I och med den nya lagstiftningen hoppades Antipiratbyrån och dess medlemsorganisationer att nedladdningen av musik och annan upphovsrättskyddat material skulle upphöra eller minska. Detta har den inte gjort samtidigt som det hela tiden kommer nya tekniker som gör det möjligt att gå förbi lagstiftningen, detta beror på att lagstiftningen upplevs som luddig. Efter den 1:a juli 2005 har det blivit ol

Problem: Today Frigoscandia Equipment Europe, FSEE, is not sure how their CRM-system, MSMS, is used along with other solutions at the different regions throughout Europe. The company is interested in a usage evaluation describing by who and how the system is used. FSEE is also concerned about the users opinions of future development and improvements. Management is also concerned about how MSMS wou

The essay aims at decoding the 1954 novel The Sound of Waves in relation to Mishima’s biography, political and aesthetic theory, arguing that his most serene artistic achievement is, in the end, a desperate self-deluding for various inner contradictions. In a minute hermeneutic approach the article identifies and interprets such defining issues as: suicide, loneliness, individualism, egoism, mater

One way of reducing environmental pollution is to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels by replacing them with solar radiation (Rs), which is one of the main sources of clean and renewable energy. In this study, daily Rs values at seven meteorological stations in Iran (Ahvaz, Isfahan, Kermanshah, Mashhad, Bandar Abbas, Kerman and Tabriz) over 2010-2019 were estimated using empirical models, suppor

Popular Abstract in Swedish Andra kapitlet redogör för konsekvenserna av att anta att inte bara huvuden utan också fraser är sonder. Slutsatsen är att det inte finns varken teoretisk eller empirisk anledning att behålla stipulationen att endast huvuden är sonder. I tredje kapitlet redogörs för de strukturella skillnaderna mellan pronomen och reflexiver. Skillnaden är att pronomen och refererande uIn chapter 2, I claim that not only heads, but phrases, too, are probes. I show that there are in fact no theoretical and empirical problems involved if we abandon the stipulation that only heads may probe. In chapter 3, I explore the structure of nominal expressions. The difference we see between reflexives and personal pronouns is argued to be an effect of the syntactic derivation, not of the p

Evacuation model capabilities are rapidly improving, allowing the simulation of ever more complex scenarios in different types of environments. The definition of the best evacuation modelling approach for safety assessment is a key point for optimizing engineering work and ensuring the desired safety conditions. In the present thesis, a wide comparison between modelling approaches has been provide

The dissertation examines the theoretical identity and formal status of a worship community within the Church of Sweden. Two theoretical perspectives form the basis of the investigation. The first is that the identity of the church cannot be reduced to an abstract idea of its essential nature, but what is said about the church must refer to the actual people who belong to it, especially those who

Höftprotesoperationer har blivit ett säkert och mycket framgångsrikt kirurgiskt ingrepp och lever upp till mycket av de förväntningar som patienterna har. Förbättring av material, protesdesign och kirurgiska tekniker har förlängt protesöverlevnaden påtagligt. Emellertid är icke optimal protesplacering och felaktigt val av komponentstorlekar känt för att öka risken för biomekaniska problem och ökatTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) has become a safe and very successful surgical intervention. A vast majority of patients get their expectations met. Improvement of materials, implant designs, and surgical techniques, have extended prosthetic survival. However, inferior placement and sizing of a hip prosthesis are known to increase the risk of mechanical failure, wear, and early loosening as well as p

Malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) include some of the world's most widespread and virulent pathogens. Our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms these parasites use to invade and exploit hosts other than mice and primates is, however, extremely limited. It is therefore imperative to characterize transcriptome-wide gene expression from non-model malaria parasites and how this varies across host in

The aim of this thesis was to reconstruct the glaciodynamics, deglacial landforms, isostatic uplift and to date the deglaciation. Glaciodynamics and deglacial landforms were focused on to provide a process and depositional model for De Geer moraine and Niemisel moraine and to reveal their internal and spatial relationship, based on detailed sedimentological and structural investigations. The isost

The family with the elderly and the home help workers’ team constitute two organisations, which meet in the care work. In this context the family is extended and often constitute not only members from the nuclear family but also other members of the network of relatives, whom take part in the care of the elderly. The extended family may in some cases include four generations (Finch & Mason, 19

Purpose: Today’s chemical society use and emit an enormous number of different, potentially ecotoxic, chemicals to the environment. The vast majority of substances do not have characterisation factors describing their ecotoxicity potential. A first stage, high throughput, screening tool is needed for prioritisation of which substances need further measures. Methods: USEtox characterisation factors

Zinc status was evaluated in 30 subjects with Crohn's disease. Intestinal resection had previously been performed in 23 of the subjects. The concentrations of zinc were determined in plasma, erythrocytes, percutaneous muscle biopsies, and in urine collected during 24 hours. The results were compared with those in 19 healthy controls. Most of the patients had a normal zinc status. The levels of zinZinc status was evaluated in 30 subjects with Crohn's disease.
