År 2011 infördes entreprenörskap i den svenska skolans läroplaner. På 1980-talet ansågs dock utbildningsorganisationen Ung Företagsamhet (UF), som fokuserar på entreprenörskapsutbildning för ungdomar, vara ideologiskt kontroversiell. Under loppet av 30 år har synen på entreprenörskap och UF:s status förändrats i grunden. Denna avhandling undersöker hur och varför entreprenörskap blev ett kunskapsoIn 2011, entrepreneurship was added to the curricula of Swedish schools at all levels. In the 1980s, however, the educational organization Junior Achievement (JA), that focuses on entrepreneurship education for young people, was considered ideologically controversial. Over the course of 30 years, the view of entrepreneurship and the status of JA has changed fundamentally. This thesis investigates

The Velika Vrbica loess-palaeosol sequence (LPS) in northeastern Serbia, located at the westernmost boundary of the Wallachian Basin, provides a high-resolution terrestrial archive of palaeoenvironmental changes spanning Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 to MIS 1. This study integrates optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating, magnetic susceptibility (χ), and mass accumulation rates (MAR) to rec

Description of the paper – e.g. topic, research question, objective, purpose, value, conceptual or theoretical framework, state of the art: Adult learning is a subject of ever growing interest, as the population of persons 65 and older grows in industrialised countries. By 2010 the number of retired persons in the European Union will be almost twice as large as in 1995 (Ilmarinen & Costa, 2000

Previous models of environmental psychology have put the focus mainly on the cognitive processes, with each step in the process leading to the next in a rather static manner. This may be exemplified by some of the attitude theories developed over the last years (e.g. Ajzen and Fishbein, 1980; Stern, 2000). Among the few exceptions to the cognitive approach is Russell’s Circumplex model of emotiona

Popular Abstract in Swedish Livmoderhalscancer är den näst vanligaste cancern för kvinnor i världen, över 500 000 kvinnor insjuknar varje år. Varje år dör dessutom 275 000 kvinnor av denna sjukdom. De flesta av de som insjuknar och dör bor i utvecklingsländer. I Sverige drabbas ca 400 kvinnor varje år. På sextiotalet i Sverige började vi screena för denna cancertyp i Sverige. Detta genom hälsokonCervical cancer is the fourth most common reason for cancer death amongst women worldwide, with 500 000 new cases every year. Most of these women live in developing countries. Cervical screening programs can reduce the incidence by 50%, but are not common in the developing world. In Sweden there are approximately 400 new cases of cervical cancer yearly, despite the existence of a screening program

Lupin seeds contain like many other grains and legumes the mineral inhibitor phytate. The presence of this anti-nutrient decreases the bioavailability of minerals such as zinc and iron. Especially people that live in areas where grains and legumes are the staple food source, as well as vegan and vegetarian groups, may be more vulnerable to mineral deficiencies. The presence of phenolic compounds i

This dissertation addresses the topic of descriptions in conversation: a relatively unexplored area of investigation apart from a small number of studies within the field of conversation analysis (Mondada 1998, 1999). However, whereas previous studies focus on the description as a social activity, enhancing the conversational facet, the present work has as a premise to put emphasis on the descript

This study has investigated the impact of presynaptic factors on the development of dyskinesia during chronic L-DOPA treatment in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease (PD). The mechanisms causing dyskinesia are not completely understood but have been proposed to involve changes in gene and protein expression in striatal neurons, which are the main target of dopamine (DA) projections from the substan

As we have evolved, human beings have developed a wide range of disciplines and discourses through which we address, analyse, dissect, explore and seek to progress, various aspects of our lives and what it is to be a human person. When considered from the perspective of each of these individual disciplines or vantage points different human features and aspects become the focus, depending on the le

The paper comprises two parts: the first is related to the question of the ne bis in i

One of the main concepts that made Tetra Pak a world leading company in producing packages for liquids, is the idea of folding paperboards. To get a good and precise fold it is necessary to crease the paper before the folding process takes part. By using creasing, the package can get more precise, stronger folds and can be produced at high speed. The creasing tool consists of a male plate and a fe

Idag lever vi en globaliserad värld där varor, tjänster och personer rör sig över större avstånd på ett allt enklare och snabbare sätt. Detta har resulterat i att fler företag har valt att etablerat sig internationellt och i allt större utsträckning strävar efter att etablera sig och verka globalt.

Principen om lika lön för lika arbete för kvinnor och män har varit en del av EU-rätten sedan Romfördraget från 1975. Numera återfinns principen och förbudet mot diskriminering på grund av kön i såväl primär- som sekundärrätt. Löneskillnaderna mellan kvinnor och män är emellertid fortsatt stora i EU:s medlemsstater varpå EU har bedömt att det finns ett behov av ytterligare lagstiftning i syfte attThe principle of equal pay for equal work for women and men has been part of EU law since the 1975 Treaty of Rome. Nowadays, the principle and the prohibition of discrimination based on sex are found in both primary and secondary legislation. However, the pay gap between women and men remains high in EU member states and the EU has therefore identified the need for further legislation to reduce th

Hot Jupiters are gas giants under intense stellar radiation with short orbital periods of only a few days. Due to their large radii, hot temperatures, and large scale heights, hot Jupiters can be observationally characterised in detail through spectroscopy over an entire orbital phase. Transmission spectroscopy is one of the tools that aid us in understanding the complex chemistry of exoplanet atm

Uppsatsen har granskat svenska myndigheters möjligheter att omedelbart tvångsomhänderta barn med hjälp av LVU. Detta har undersökts i relation till barn som har och inte har sin hemvist i Sverige samt i relation till barn vars hemvist inte kan fastställas. Både Bryssel II-förordningen och LVU har an-vänts för att redovisa gällande regler kring fastställande av barnets hemvist samt förutsättningar The aim of this thesis is to investigate the Swedish regulations regarding immediate care taking of children, especially regarding children whose place of residence is in another EU-country. The Brussels II regulation ap- plies to decisions to take into care and place a child.

Bröstcancer är den vanligaste formen av cancer hos kvinnor. Fler än 7000 diagnostiseras med denna sjukdom varje år i Sverige. En del av behandlingen mot cancern är strålbehandling. För att strålbehandlingen ska ge goda effekter är det viktigt att det är den sjuka vävnaden som bestrålas, och att den friska vävnaden förskonas från strålningen i den mån det är möjligt. Detta uppnås genom noggranna stPurpose: The CatalystTM system was tested and compared with an X-ray image verification system for patient positioning during breast cancer treatment. Included was to find the optimal reference image and the optimal cropping method for the reference image. Parameters that could lead to an optimization of the treatment routines were also evaluated. Method and Material: The study was divided into t
