Egentlig depression är en folksjukdom, men i dagsläget är kognitiv beteendeterapi, som fått mest stöd i depressionsforskning, en bristvara. Därav finns ett behov av att med begränsade resurser kunna hjälpa så många patienter som möjligt och då är Internetbaserad självhjälpsbehandling i ett alternativ vid mild till måttlig depression. Denna behandlingsform kan dock inte hjälpa alla, varför de som inte svarat på den inledande behandlingen som ett andra steg bör erbjudas mer intensiv och individualiserad vård; så kallad. stepped care. Vid depression uppvisar vissa patienter sudden gains, det vill säga relativt stora, snabba och stabila minskningar av symptom, som ofta bibehålls på lång sikt.Syftet med studien var att undersöka effekten av stepped care vid mild till måttlig depression, vinna ökade kunskaper om sudden gains samt se om överlappningar mellan sudden gains och stepped care fanns.85 deltagare inkluderades i studien, varav 69 randomiserades till Internetbaserad självhjälpsbehandling eller live gruppbehandling.

On a highly competitive market, quality is an important aspect to take into account, both in terms of goods and services. The Swedish timber market is very competitive and to achieve long-term success focus on the customer, in this case private forest owners, is a prerequisite. SCA Skog AB Jämtlands forest management administration is dependent on the acquisition of timber from private forest owners to fulfil their mission to the supply of SCA's paper and sawmills in Sweden with raw material. To be able to develop the cooperation with private forest owners, the administration investigates their quality management by measuring the customer satisfaction index (CSI). The purpose of the study was to identify a practical and systematic method to handle deviations and suggestions for improvements to achieve a higher customer satisfaction.

The aim of this study is to with the help of my data, conduct statistic analyses about animal welfare mistakes and scarities, as a preventive measure for the public sector point of view and how farmers handle their animals in these cases, when and how these mistakes and scarities are likely to appear and in this way perhaps manage the existing problems.

In November 1938 the pro tempore investigator handed over a report with a proposition according the animal welfare legislation.

This proposal unfortunately was turned down. The question about introduce a ban against owning or taking care of animals into the Swedish animal welfare legislation was again discussed in April 1967 at an interpellation debate in the parliaments second chamber.

The main purpose of this study is to explore and develop how the Christian conception of love as agape can be understood in light of feminist concerns, and how it can be cultivated in light of psychological research. Traditionally, agape has been defined as unconditional self-sacrifice for the sake of the other. Feminist theologians have highlighted repeatedly that an ethical principle of self-sacrifice might not be liberating for groups who have already internalized pressure to sacrifice their own needs for others. The main research questions are: 1) How may agape be understood in light of feminist concerns about its traditional interpretations? 2) How could a Christian community cultivate a form of agape that is responsive to feminist concerns? In order to answer these questions, the first part of the dissertation examines feminist concerns regarding discussion of agape, and then uses these concerns as a lens for analysing four themes in contemporary accounts of agape: community, care, humility, and mentalization.
