Many selection methodologies and tools have been developed in attempts to make recruitment processes more accurate and to improve objectivity in this area. However, these methods and tools can only improve objectivity to the extent that they are not affected by unconscious feelings, or implicit processes used by the recruiter. The purpose of this study is to try to discover in what way intuition s
Buildings account for 40% of energy use and about one third of CO2 emissions in the EU. The huge energy saving potentials offered by the building sector has been targeted by a large number of policy instruments. To improve policy intervention in this area, more information on the extent to which the applied policy instruments are supporting the development and dissemination of different types of e
Introduction The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effects of exercise on (i) the prevention of cancer-related lymphedema (CRL) and (ii) the treatment of CRL, lymphedema-associated symptoms, and other health outcomes among individuals with CRL. Methods An electronic search was undertaken for exercise studies measuring lymphedema and involving individuals at ri
Climate change-induced water insecurity impacts are unevenly distributed across the world, with Africa expected to bear the highest burden of water scarcity globally. This chapter examines how climate change acts as a compounding factor that exacerbates the existing vulnerabilities in the Sahel region and creates new challenges for water security and irrigation management. With populations in the
Room temperature deposition of Sn on Cu(100) gives rise to a rich variety of surface reconstructions in the submonolayer coverage range. In this work, we report a detailed investigation on the phases appearing and their temperature stability range by using low-energy electron diffraction and surface X-ray diffraction. Previously reported reconstructions in the submonolayer range are p(2 x 2) (for
Urbanization has led to significant infrastructural challenges, particularly in the slum areas of the Global South. Nature-based Solutions (NbS) are emerging as innovative approaches to enhance urban sustainability and resilience. This study investigates the enabling environment for decentralized governance in implementing NbS within urban slums, focusing on case studies in Indonesia and the Phili
Title Servitization in Manufacturing Firms: Exploring Possible Relations Between the Product-Service Systems Offered by Highly Servitized Manufacturing Firms and the Market Environments in which they Operate Authors Edvin Magneteg Max Parkosidis Supervisors Ola Alexanderson, Faculty of Engineering (LTH), Lund University Stefan Calling, ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems Background In recent years, an
Decarbonization within the maritime sector advances slowly, especially the adoption of zero- carbon technologies, despite increasing regulatory pressure and mounting climate change awareness. Ro-Pax ferry shipping, where vessels operate at high frequencies along designated routes with fixed schedules, functions as a key factor in regional European transport and produces significant greenhouse gas
Studien syftade till att undersöka hur kvinnor från Irak och f.d. Jugoslavien, diagnostiserade med bröstcancer och boende i Sverige, upplever sin vardag under strålbehandling. En kvalitativ forskningsdesign användes som bestod av intervjuer med tio kvinnor, fem med ursprung i Irak och fem från f.d. Jugoslavien. Strävan för att överleva medförde att kvinnorna upplevde sin vardag under strålbehandliThis study aimed at exploring how women from Iraq and the former Yugoslavia, diagnosed with breast cancer and living in Sweden, experience their everyday life during radiation therapy. A qualitative research design was used comprising interviews with ten women, five originating from Iraq and five from the former Yugoslavia. Striving to survive, the women experienced their everyday life during radi
This review article examines the differences in the approaches taken by economists and historians when interpreting social and economic change in the African past. It is argued that it is a mistake to assume that one discipline has supremacy over the other, let alone monopoly, when it comes to evaluating historical causes of African poverty. One of the shortcomings of the ‘New African Economic His
Focusing on the Swedish census of 1900, the child-woman ratio and own-children method have been applied to assess socioeconomic differences in fertility. These indirect estimates of fertility have been compared to the vital statistics at the national level to assess their reliability. This comparison demonstrated that the estimated results suffered from few errors. Even if these indirect estimates
