Abstract:
The present dissertation includes four empirical studies, each of which focuses on specific aspects of children’s living conditions. Study I analyses the association between young people’s social relations and health complaints using Swedish nationally representative survey data on 10- to 18-year-olds. Both relations with parents and with peers are associated with health complaints. Relational content is more strongly associated with health complaints than is relational structure. With regard to relational content, strained relations are more strongly associated with health complaints than are

The recognition that employees and employers wield different levels of power in the workplace makes labour legislation a central part of the workplace. This is because the different levels of power possessed by the two parties impact not only on workplace decision making but also on the relationship between the two parties, thus, being the weaker party (worker), the importance of worker protection through legislation is very important. However, the extent to which all employees enjoy legislation protection has always been a bone of contention. The lack of employment security in certain sectors

Background: Primary care practitioners are at the forefront of the health service and therefore have an opportunity to promote oral health, manage certain oral conditions, or refer appropriately to the closest dental service. In under-resourced areas, patients are more likely to present initially to a primary health care nurse or doctor, with oral or dental needs. Studies abroad have revealed that general practitioners do not always examine the oral cavity, enquire about oral health, or manage oral disease particularly well and have expressed an interest to learn more about oral health.

In India, issues of gender discrimination and female empowerment have become more prominent in the last several years.

Statistics indicate that women may be taking on more of a care giving role with elderly widows which in turn may exacerbate the already existing issues of poverty and neglect for thi

Background: Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) are genetic cardiovascular diseases that cause sudden cardiac death. When an individual is diagnosed with an inherited disease such as HCM/LQTS it is critical that their biological relatives are notified of their increased risk. Newly diagnosed individuals in turn notify other at-risk family members through a successive process called cascade screening. This facilitates screening of at-risk biological relatives through genetic testing and/or clinical testing, and treatment for HCM/LQTS prior to development of life-threat

This thesis was designed to describe family change in Oman as it undergoes urbanization and modernization. A survey questionnaire to measure these changes was developed.
