Syftet med uppsatsen var att sprida en medvetenhet om det emotionella lönarbetets existens och möjliga inverkan på anställda i förskolan. Syftet var mer specifikt att undersöka hur ett begränsat antal förskollärare i Lunds kommun, påverkades av och hanterade det emotionella lönearbete som de ställdes inför. Empirin samlades in genom sex semistrukturerade intervjuer med förskollärare från Lund. Int

Den föreliggande studien har grund i tidigare forskning som funnit samband mellan stress, arbetsprestation och livsstil. Syftet med studien var att studera dessa samband närmare samt lägga till faktorn sömn i livsstilsaspekten för att se om detta skulle ha en påverkan på sambandet. Vi genomförde en webb-baserad enkät som byggde på olika reliabla skalor för varje kategori som exempelvis Health at w

Complex coacervation is a type of liquid-liquid phase separation, that occurs when oppositely charged macroions are mixed in aqueous solution under certain conditions. It has been proven to have applications within many different industries including the food and pharmaceutical industries. For example, protein/polysaccharide coacervates have been used for their emulsifying and foaming properties.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a global disease affecting more than 3.5 million people in the world, resulting in a high burden to societies. More research on IBD is definitely in need to prevent the disease and treat IBD patients. The intestinal epithelial barriers of IBD patients are weakened due to the inflammation, thereby, enteric microbes in the gut may translocate to the circulating sy

During the years, societies have faced different complex and hazardous events which has put their resilience to test. The refugee crisis is one event that usually do not fall within the framework of what a country or a political sector is prepared for. In the autumn 2015, when large numbers of refugees arrived at Malmö central station, no authorities were prepared and present to receive the people

This thesis in Anthropology researches the identity of Macedonians in the wake of a controversial name change to solve a long standing dispute with Greece. The dispute is based on rivalring historical narratives and the legacy of antique king and conqueror Alexander the Great of ancient Macedon, a region currently shared by Greece and the newly renamed republic of North Macedonia, who both claim d

Problemområde: Hållbar turism har ett tydligt fokus på den miljömässiga hållbarheten, vilket har bidragit till att den sociala hållbarheten har blivit bortprioriterad. Det finns olika tolkningar av social hållbarhet vilket medför svårigheter för aktörers engagemang inom besöksnäringen. Detta tyder på att en större förståelse för social hållbarhet behövs. Syfte: Vårt syfte handlar om att bidra til

To find approximate solutions to initial value problems (IVPs) one can use a wide range of numerical methods. A special group of IVPs referred to as stiff, can be numerically solved by a chain of methods, beginning with an implicit method then Newton's method and last, General minimal residual (GMRES). For GMRES to be more time-efficient, we need to apply a preconditioner to the system of equa

The need for sustainable solutions to the negative state of the Earth is urgent. Ethical choices need to be made and humanity’s endowed imagination needs to be employed to find creative ways ahead. Literature has a potential to open minds and challenge perceptions, which is necessary to activate the creative imagination needed to find visionary solutions. This analytical research paper explores ho

This is a study of uncertainty in the corporate setting from the perspective of individual employees. While some interviewees talk about accepting uncertainty as an unavoidable state, others tell stories of dread and anguish, associated with instability in the work environment. This research shows how uncertainty as a stress inducing factor can affect both productivity and employee wellbeing, by r

Ett uråldrigt hus med murkna tegelstenar som är täckta med mossa träder fram ur mörkret. Murgrönan sträcker sig över fasaden och döljer de tomma fönstren. Ett litet torn med spetsiga spiror höjer sig över taket och bryter byggnadens redan bristande proportioner. Ett stenvalv inramar en massiv träport med excentriska inristningar och förskräckliga maskaroner. Dörrens groteska portklappar är orörda.

Chemical pesticides have long been used to keep crops free from pests, but in modern agriculture biological control is viewed as a viable alternative to pesticides. The concept of biological control is to implement predators that feed upon the pests. It can however be difficult to follow the effects of the biological control in the field, which is why a theoretical mathematical model has been desi

This paper examines the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the industrial upgrading process of Vietnam based on the concept of the new structural economics. The most recent development of industries in Vietnam is analysed using the annual data published by the statistical office of Vietnam and the studies done by various academics on spillovers effects of FDI. The paper finds the an impo

Ultra high magnetic field (UHF) MR-systemsis an interesting research area, the systems offer images with higher spatial resolution than its lower field counterpart. One of the disadvantages with UHF MR is that they lead to a worsened B1-field homogenity, a homogentity essential for the creation of MR-images. In the project an 8 independent channel transmit system is charachterised. The transmit sy

Många groddjur har minskande populationstrender både lokalt och globalt. Inventeringar av groddjur är en viktig del av arbetet för att få mer information om deras utbredning för att kunna skydda groddjuren och deras miljöer. Detta kan ha positiva effekter även på andra djur och växter eftersom groddjur är bra indikatorer på rika miljöer. Genom sitt vattenupptag via huden är groddjuren extremt käns

Idag är var tionde art i Sveriges skogar hotad. På Sveriges skogsägare vilar således ett stort ansvar för att bevara landets biologiska mångfald. Svenska Kyrkan har som Sveriges femte största skogsägare och på grund av sina värderingar möjlighet att göra stora insatser i arbetet för att bevara Sveriges skogsarter. I min studie har jag sett att Svenska Kyrkans arbete för att bevara biologisk mångfa

Eutrophication is a serious problem that is affecting the Baltic Sea and its streams connecting to it. It brings a negative impact on the biodiversity, the streams recreational value, sport fishing and also the overall ground water quality. Recently, there have been many restoration attempts on streams across Sweden, to try to repair the streams and prevent them from leaking nutrients and minerals
