Abstract:

In general, most women are familiar with the need to stop smoking when they are pregnant. In spite of this, many women find it difficult to stop. Using a phenomenographic approach, this study explored Swedish pregnant and post-pregnant women's ways of making sense of smoking during pregnancy. A total of 17 women who either smoked throughout pregnancy or stopped smoking during pregnancy were interviewed. Five different story types of how they are making sense of smoking during pregnancy were identified: smoking can be justified; will stop later; my smoking might hurt the baby; smoking is just g

Abstract:

Millions of people have already collected weeks, months and even years of data about their own health and physical activity levels. The potential is enormous for use in personal applications as well as for public health analysis of large populations at low cost. However, the reality is many people fail to wear their tracker and record data all day every day especially over the long-term. The resulting incompleteness in data poses an important challenge for interpreting long-term tracker data, in terms of both making sense of it and in dealing with the uncertainty of inferences based on it.

Abstract:

When receiving a negative outcome (e.g., rejection in a job interview), people tend to attribute it to different causes. For members of stigmatised groups, discrimination is a plausible cause for a negative outcome. However, because discrimination has become relatively subtle (Ellemers & Barreto, 2015), members of stigmatised groups always live in an attributional ambiguity where they constantly wonder whether discrimination was the cause of the received negative outcome. Some researchers argue that this attributional ambiguity leads members of stigmatised groups to make attributions to discri

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis presents an examination of the policy process in education, focusing on the London Challenge as an exemplifying case study. The policy problem of the London Challenge was the poorer performance of London secondary schools . compared to other regions and considerable between-school variation. Social polarisation was intensified by the relationship between education, 'place' and social disadvantage and so the London Challenge was designed to intervene in this situation. A critique of the London Challenge policy over the course of its eight year life is presented in the thesis, identi

Abstract:

The shaping of spatial structures at the urban, regional and national levels involves numerous kinds of actors and planning activities. In recent years, calls for crosssectoral coordination and integrated planning approaches echo extensively across different fields of planning. However, experiences from planning situations around Sweden and elsewhere reveal great challenges to such ambitions. This thesis explores key conditions for an integrated approach to urban and transport planning, focusing on the relationships between public professional actors and agencies involved in the interface betw

Abstract:

The importance of incorporating Diversity Management (DM) in organizations has become a viral debate in recent years in response to social pressures worldwide. While there is extensive research on the effects of DM, how the implementation process is managed is much less obvious. Furthermore, DM is a multidimensional concept that lacks a universally accepted definition in terms of organizational practices, which presents operations managers with various challenges. To identify these challenges and how they are managed, a qualitative case study was conducted through semi-structured interviews wi

L’objectif de cette thèse consiste à cerner les enjeux, les contraintes et les normes qui régissent le sous-titrage cinématographique en tant qu’opération traduisante. Cette recherche se fonde sur un corpus constitué de films français, dont des comédies (romantiques) particulièrement, qui ont été tout récemment distribués dans les salles chinoises. Dans un premier temps, nous essayons de mettre en évidence, suivant l’évolution des échanges cinématographiques entre la Chine et d’autres pays, plus spécifiquement la France, les enjeux qu’un pays avec sa politique, son idéologie propre, son économ

Abstract:

The subject of this thesis is primarily the ethical point of Wittgenstein’s Tractatus. In the work, Wittgenstein investigates the connection between ethics and the world by examining the nature of the proposition. In the Lecture on Ethics, Wittgenstein reinvestigates this connection more directly by explaining the nature of the ethical expression. I argue that the ethical point of the book is to help one to understand the ephemeral characteristics of ethics insofar as they cannot be articulated by demonstrating what can be articulated. In the Lecture, Wittgenstein also points to a deep challen

Sensory processing challenges in adults are associated with life experiences, such as anxiety, depression and decreased quality of sleep (Engel-Yeger & Dunn, 2011; Engel-Yeger & Shocat, 2012; Kinnealey & Fuiek, 1999).
