Patients treated for psychosis and their perceptions of care in compulsory treatment : basis for an action plan
- 2012
-
In: Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing. - Chichester : Wiley-Blackwell. - 1351-0126 .- 1365-2850. ; 19:1, s. 15-22

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The purpose of the study was to describe patients' conceptions and experiences of care in compulsory treatment for acute onset of psychosis. Twelve patients with experience of compulsory treatment were interviewed in 2008-2009, and phenomenographic analysis was used to analyse the data. Two descriptive categories emerged in the results: receiving needed support and perceiving respectful care. Patients perceived that coercive interventions were positive if they were given good care, if they were given the shelter they needed, if they got help with understanding and if the setting was healing. Patients felt respected if they were treated like human beings, if they were allowed to retain as much of their autonomy as possible and if they were invited to participate even though they were under compulsory treatment. The results show that it is important to prevent patients from being traumatized during compulsory treatment and to take advantage of patients' inner resources. Patients' experiences of compulsory treatment can form the basis for preparing an individual action plan for future compulsory treatment. Individual action plans could empower patients during compulsory treatment and improve their experience of care.

Plant extracts comprising at least a phenolic compound, for inducing the natural defence of a plant against a pathogen, such as phytophthora infestans
- 2015
-
Patent (other academic/artistic)abstract
- A sugar beet extract (SBE) induced defense in potato plants under green-house conditions and in field trial, without apparent toxicity for the plant. Treatment with SBE resulted in significant reduction of the size of Phytophthora infestans infection lesions and lower sporangia production. SBE had no apparent toxic effect, neither on the hyphal growth of the pathogennor on the germination of sporangia. SBE triggered PR-1 protein induction which suggests that the defense mechanism conferred by SBE could be via direct induced resistance. An array of phenolic metabolites and minerals was found in the SBE and constitutes potential inducers of the defense.

Värderingar, visioner och konflikter i utvecklingen av lokal e-förvaltning
- 2009
-
Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Våra liv och vårt samhälle integreras allt mer med Informations- och Kommunikationsteknologi (IKT), detta gäller även den offentliga sektorn. Förväntningarna på att offentliga organisationer ska tillgängliggöra service, information och demokrati genom IKT ökar. Detta medför att den offentliga sektorn försöker finna vägar och strategier för att anpassa sig till det framväxande informations- och nätverkssamhället. Syftet med detta papper är att analysera utvecklingen av lokal e-förvaltning genom att fokusera på aktörernas värderingar och visioner ur ett diskursivt maktperspektiv. Den empiriska undersökningen utgörs av en fallstudie som studerar utvecklingen av lokal e-förvaltning i ett svenskt landsting. Analysen visar att de olika aktörernas värderingar och visioner kring utvecklingen av lokal e-förvaltning kan vara både samstämmiga och motstridiga. Detta väcker ytterligare frågor kring vilken betydelse värderingar och visioner har för den studerade policyprocessen. Papperet utmynnar således i nya frågeställningar att utgå från i det fortsatta arbetet med forskningsproblemet.

Brood size constrains the development of endothermy in blue tits
- 2016

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Altricial birds are unable to maintain body temperature when exposed to low ambient temperatures during the first days after hatching. Thermoregulatory capacity begins to form as postnatal development progresses, and eventually nestlings become homeothermic. Several factors may influence this development at both the level of the individual and the level of the whole brood, but to our knowledge no studies have focused on the effect of brood size per se on the development of endothermy in individual nestlings. We performed cooling experiments on blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) nestlings in the field, to study how different experimental brood sizes affected the development of endothermy in individual nestlings and the thermal environment experienced by the whole brood in the nest. Nestlings from all experimental brood sizes showed a decrease in cooling rate as they grew older, but birds from reduced broods showed an earlier onset of endothermy compared with nestlings from enlarged and control broods. This difference manifested during early development and gradually disappeared as nestlings grew older. The thermal environment in the nests differed between treatments during nestling development, such that nest temperature in reduced broods was lower than that in enlarged broods during all days and during nights at the end of the experimental period. We suggest that the development of endothermy in blue tit nestlings is not ontogenetically fixed, but instead may vary according to differences in developmental, nutritional and thermal conditions as determined by brood size.

Women entrepreneurship - a shortcut to a more competitive and equal forestry sector?
- 2015
-
In: Scandinavian Journal of Forest Research. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0282-7581 .- 1651-1891. ; 30:3, s. 226-234
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article discusses the potential for soft-governance instruments and processes such as the National Gender Equality Strategy to implement a strategy aiming at improved competiveness through gender equality. A central question addressed is how to create a women entrepreneurial identity within the framework of the dominant gender order in the forest sector? The literature review and policy analysis upon which this article is based shows that both structural and individual factors in combination are important for women to be motivated to develop a business in the green sectors. While fully agree with the above, this article takes the discussion one step further by pointing out how policy programs designed to support rural business often have been carried out in a top-down fashion without sufficient knowledge about specific target groups, and have primarily focused on men's businesses within the primary business areas. In order not to be "genderblind," specific support built from the grassroots level with sufficient knowledge about the target group, i.e. women forest owners, is crucial. Several studies also show that in order for programs or strategies with vague effect goals to work, they have to be legitimate and accepted by the stakeholders, which has shown to be one of the most fundamental weaknesses of this type of soft-governance approach. The essential factor is not the goal itself, but rather which tools are available for implementation. Otherwise, this type of soft policy instruments will only work on those who already believe - that is to say, it is seducing the already seduced.
