Quantum mechanical weak values of projection operators have been used to answer which-way questions, e.g. to trace which arms in a multiple Mach–Zehnder setup a particle may have traversed from a given initial to a prescribed final state. I show that this procedure might lead to logical inconsistencies in the sense that different methods used to answer composite questions, like “Has the particle t

The purpose of this study was to emphasize how Social Workers seen from a gender perspective reasoned about youth sexuality and about male and female prostitution. Our question at issue concerns how gender is constructed based on the Social Secretaries discussion about sexuality and prostitution. The used method was qualitative and the empirical evidence was collected through semi-structured inter

This qualitative study aims to investigate the meaning of the smartphone for young people as well as the way young people experience their parents and the staff at schools relating to them using their smartphones. It also investigates young peoples thoughts about restrictions made by their parents and the staff at school and if or in what ways the restrictions may affect the relationship between a

The relatively new and complex field of cybersecurity policy has introduced significant challenges for the EU. The policy area has not yet developed into a coherent one, and it balances security policy with the internal market policy. This study analyses how the Member States use the Council of the EU to forward their interests and preferences in reaction to the evolving policy area. Member States

Vi översköljs dagligen av olika typer av information, men vad avgör om vi bedömer den som trovärdig eller inte? Tidigare studier har visat att gemene person bedömer sekretessbelagd information som mer trovärdig än offentlig. Kan detta gälla för alla? Finns det andra grupper som inte bedömer sekretessmarkerad information som mer trovärdig? Mitt examensarbete undersöker räddningstjänstpersonal och sInformation management is a central part of organizations in today´s society, and critical research is continuously made to assess the reliability of sources. Previous studies have suggested that information with confidential sources tends to be perceived as more credible compared to open sources. The aim of the thesis was to analyze the perceived credibility of information from confidential versu

Fåmansföretagsreglernas grundläggande syfte är att förhindra att fåmansägare omvandlar inkomster som bör beskattas i inkomstslaget tjänst, till kapitalinkomster för att på så vis minska sin skatt. Givet att fåmansägaren uppfyller de förutsättningar för att beskattas i enlighet med 57 kap. IL, så kommer dennes inkomster därför schablonbeskattas. Det finns undantag till nu nämnda regler. Ett undantaThe main purpose for the rules regulating closely held companies is to prevent the owners of such companies from converting income that would be taxed in the higher wage-related income category into the lower capital income in order to reduce their tax liability. If the owners of a closely held company satisfies the conditions for taxation in accordance with Sweden’s Chapter 57 Act on Income Taxat

The present study focuses on online spaces centered on eating disorders. I conducted a discourse analysis using public posts under hashtags related to eating disorders on Twitter and Tumblr. My analytical process was guided by the assumptions of the self-categorisation theory of identity. It attempts to elucidate how the discursive trends and common repertoires used by the members of these online

The efficiency of combustion engines is crucial for their future development, prompting researchers to explore various factors to enhance performance. Among these factors, exhaust gases hold significant potential. Typically, exhaust gases carry about 30-40% of the engine's energy, which often remains underutilized. Although technologies like turbochargers have made progress in recovering some

This project was completed in collaboration with the graph database company Neo4j with the aim of developing a new algorithm for automatic detection of software bugs that degrade system performance, commonly referred to as performance regressions in the industry. Due to the large number of benchmarks used to monitor different aspects of the product environment, a flexible and robust solution was n

Research into voice qualities that employ supraglottal structures has enlightened our knowledge on the relationship between the laryngeal and the oral articulators. One such insight, which is described within the laryngeal articulator model, is the relationship between the tongue and jaw, and laryngeal constriction. There is evidence to suggest that the tongue dorsum is actively involved in laryng

Background Obesity is increasing among patients with inflammatory bowel disease, but bariatric surgery has been rare in this group owing to concerns about worsening the inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of the study was to evaluate inflammatory bowel disease-related outcomes following bariatric surgery. Methods Nationwide cohort of all adult patients in Sweden between 2007 and 2020 with obesity

Introduction: Carbon monoxide (CO) is a leading cause of environmental poisoning in the United States with substantial mortality and morbidity. The mechanism of CO poisoning is complex and includes hypoxia, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Currently both biomarkers and therapies for CO poisoning are limited and require new approaches. Methods: Rats (~ 300 g) were divided into four grou

Background: Neuroimaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may assist clinicians in evaluating brain injury and optimising care in comatose adults resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, contemporary international data on its use are lacking. Aim: The primary aim was to compare the patient characteristics, early postresuscitation care, and neurological outcomes of pa

Rationale, Aims and Objectives: Colonoscopy, though common, can be uncomfortable, necessitating routine assessment of patient experience per European guidelines. Positive patient experiences are crucial as they influence willingness for repeat procedures. Patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) effectively capture patient perspectives through surveys, empowering patients to influence healthca

Continuous-flow fixed-bed reactors effectively bridge laboratory research and industrial production. As the key component, the catalyst module must demonstrate high catalytic activity and rapid reactant distribution to maximize the catalytic turnover. Herein, a facile strategy is proposed to fabricate a microfibrous catalyst by decorating Cu single atoms (Cu1) on composite microfiber (CMF) made fr
