Samsjuklighet av missbruk och psykisk ohälsa är ett komplext problem som enligt social forskning ofta är förankrade med varandra. Det är en aktuell problematik som föreligger i flera länder. Syftet med denna studie har varit att undersöka hur de yrkesverksamma inom socialtjänsten och hälso- och sjukvården upplever att samverkan och samsjuklighet tar sig uttryck mellan de båda instanserna. Metoden Comorbidity of addiction and mental illness is a complex problem that according to social research often is linked to each other. This is a current problem that exists in several countries. The purpose of this study has been to investigate how the professionals in the social services and health care experience that collaboration and comorbidity are expressed between the two instances. The chosen m

Abstract In modern anti-money laundering operations, data analysis plays a vital role. One method of detecting fraudulent data is Benford’s law, which predicts the distribution of the first significant digits in logarithmically distributed data. Deviation from Benford’s law in data where it should be present might indicate manipulated data. We investigate the Chi2 and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests’ pr

Abstrakt Bakgrund: Internationellt har arbetsterapeuten en betydande roll inom elevhälsan, vilket skiljer sig från Sverige. Det är därmed betydelsefullt att undersöka hur övriga professioner i elevhälsan i Sverige tillgodoser elevernas behov av stöd till aktivitetsutförande och aktivitetsengagemang utifrån ett arbetsterapeutiskt perspektiv. Syfte: Att beskriva hur elevhälsan i grundskolan i SverigAbstract Background: Internationally, the occupational therapist has a significant role in student health, which differs from student health in Sweden. It is therefore important to investigate how other professions meet the students' need for support for activity and participation from an occupational therapy perspective. Aim: To describe how student health in primary school in Sweden experien

Användningen av korslimmat trä (KL-trä) befinner sig i en expanderande fas. Tillämpn-ingen av KL-trä som byggnadsmaterial är relativt nytt och övergripande dimensioneringsstandarder har ännu inte utvecklats fullt ut. Ett fall där inga allmänna dimensioneringsstandarder existerar är fallet plattelement av KL-trä med hål. En dimensioneringsmetod som utgår ifrån en balkrostmodell har föreslagits för The use of cross laminated timber (CLT) is expanding, its use is relatively new and universal design standards are lacking. One situation for which no universal design standard exists is that of a CLT plate element with an opening. A grillage method has been proposed as a convenient method to design such plate elements. The grillage method consists of analyzing a beam grillage model in terms of be

My diploma project is a design proposal for a Rudolf Steiner School in Sirende, a village 12 km outside Kitale Town, Kenya. On Initiative taken by the anthroposophical association Föreningen Sofia in Sweden, a Steiner school opened in Sirende in year 2008. Today the school is in a very bad condition with over crowded classrooms and poor sanitary conditions. The need for a new school building is ur

Den aktuella studiens syfte var att undersöka om det finns ett samband mellan upptagenhet av kost och träning och fyra psykologiska faktorer: hälsoångest, självkänsla, känsla av sammanhang och kroppsuppfattning, då psykiskt välmående som begrepp är alltför mångfacetterat. Ett ytterligare syfte var att undersöka om upptagenhet av kost och träning skiljde sig åt beroende på specifika egenskaper hos The purpose of the present study was to examine whether there are connections between preoccupation with diet, and exercise, and four psychological factors: health anxiety, self-esteem, sense of coherence, and body image, since psychological well- being is a broadly used term. Another aim was to examine whether the preoccupation with diet, and exercise differed depending on some specific character

Allmänhetens åsikter och kunskap om blågröna lösningar Vad tycker de boende i ett lundensiskt bostadsområde om de blågröna lösningar som implementerats där, och förstår de vad lösningarna är till för? Har planerarna bakom projektet valt rätt lösningar att implementera? Nedan kommer en sammanfattning av studien som svarar på dessa frågor. På grund av klimatförändringarna kommer nederbörden i SveDue to the changing climate, rainfall in Sweden is expected to increase with about 20%-25% during this century which means that there is a need for climate adaptation to mitigate the problems that follow heavy rainfall. A way to climate adapt cities is by implementing bluegreen solutions. This study is about a system of blue-green solutions in a residential area in Lund. The system consists of fi

X-ray Fluorescence microscopy is a sophisticated advanced technique which can provide information regarding the concentration and the distribution of chemical elements within biological samples. It is increasingly used in the study of cells and tissues as it does not require the use of staining or fluorescent probes. For XRF measurements, sample preparation is a key step in the analytical process

In this study, I investigate the impact of Non Formal Education (NFE) programs on working children’s lives in Bangladesh considering the principle of the “best interests of the child” and assuming the importance of “educational opportunities” in challenging child labour and allowing children to make informed rational choices. Since the principle of the “best interests of the child”, as defined by

The theses discuss information seeking with a focus on Google and social networks. Students attending the librarian program in Lund have been examined by means of two methods; diaries and information horizons, where they had to solve a specific assignment. The information horizon as a method contributes to getting a structural perspective on the information search process instead of viewing inform

One of the most important topics in financial literature is the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH). Recent financial research has questioned this hypothesis, and many authors have reached the conclusion that a contrarian strategy creates abnormal positive returns. In other words a strategy profiting buying losers and selling winners. To explain this market behaviour researchers have come up with a

In the last few years there has been an ongoing debate concerning the methods of assessing the quality of public libraries and their services. This study investigates the opinions and needs of the users at four different public libraries in Malm : the local libraries in Bellevueg rden, Limhamn, and Kirseberg, and the main library in central Malm . The purpose was to find out whether different user

The right of access to medicines has challenged the common perception that economic, social and cultural rights, due to their progressive character, are aspirations rather than a legal set of obligations. It has received strong and sustainable global support and has achieved a remarkably detailed legal definition within the UN human rights system, including the provision of access to essential med

Background: Models based on using perturbative polarization corrections and mean-field blocking approximation give conflicting results for masses of odd nuclei. Purpose: We systematically investigate the polarization and mean-field models, implemented within self-consistent approaches that use identical interactions and model spaces, to find reasons for the conflicts between them. Methods: For den

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate how food manufacturers in Sweden define and view innovations, how they view their role and those of other actors and the interaction/collaboration regarding innovations in the food supply/value chain. Design/methodology/approach – After an exploratory pre-study with 12 participants, a full study of Swedish manufacturers comprised of represent

To further understanding of the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility, we aggregated published meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), including 26,488 cases and 83,964 controls of European, east Asian, south Asian and Mexican and Mexican American ancestry. We observed a significant excess in the directional consistency of T2D risk alleles across ancestry groups, e

Objective: A large tidal volume (VT) and lung collapse and re-expansion may cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in acute lung injury (ALI). A low VT and a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can prevent VILI, but the more VT is reduced, the more dead space (VD) compromises gas exchange. We investigated how physiological, airway and alveolar VD varied with PEEP and analysed possible lin

In recent decades temperature elevation has been the focus of many studies on climate change, including effects on planktonic communities, but few studies have examined the effects of increased water color ("brownification"). Since these changes are likely to occur simultaneously, it is important to investigate their potential interactive effects. Accordingly, we performed a mesocosm experiment wh

Background: Positive intersexual genetic correlations are typically viewed as constraining the evolution of sexual dimorphism, when traits are subject to sexually antagonistic selection. Our study species, the damselfly Ischnura elegans, has a female-limited colour polymorphism with three female colour morphs (males are monomorphic), one of which is considered to be a male mimic.
