Investigation of the reward cycle associated with play behaviour in lambs

The aim of this study was to investigate if behaviour, ear positions and cortisol in lamb which were given access to play followed the different phases of the reward cycle of anticipation, consumption and relaxation. The study was done on 8 Dorset and 12 Dorset x Fine Wool uncastrated male lambs with an average age of 10 weeks. The lambs were housed pairwise in litter pens (2 x 3 m). Pairs of lambs were taken to a play arena (5.9 x 5.5 m) three times a week during five weeks (first week for learning). They were then first kept in a holding pen where they could look into the play arena for 5 minutes and thereafter released for 20 minutes in the play arena which had a ball, two chains and a tunnel.

Övergången från SAB till Dewey i forskningsbibliotekssverige: En organisationsförändring ur de anställdas perspektiv

In November 2008 the National Library of Sweden decidedto switch classification system from SAB to Dewey decimalclassification. SAB had then been the main classificationsystem in the whole of the Swedish library field for 87 years.Included into the decision was not just the nationalbibliography but also the research libraries of Sweden. Thisdecision was in alignment with a West European tendency tochange in favor of the internationally well-spreadclassification system Dewey in order to co-operate more inthe cataloguing process. The purpose of this study takenplace in the autumn and winter of 2013 is to examine howlibrarians involved in the transition feel about what differentways the implementation has affected the research libraryorganizations. We also aim to study the librarians? view onthe involvement of the research libraries into the decision ofthe changeover.

Jämförelser av olika former av QRA och andra metoder för riskanalys av processindustrier

When performing a QRA you have to consider a number of accident scenarios. How many scenarios you choose often determines the time and resources needed to perform the QRA. The report investigates the possibility that a QRA can be performed using only a few representative scenarios. Further it presents a discussion on how these scenarios should be constructed..

An enriched arena for lamb - anticipation behaviour before entering the arena, effects of skipping the anticipation phase and effects of being denied access to the arena

This study aimed to investigate whether lambs show Anticipatory behaviours in a holding pen prior to entering a known arena, whether the holding pen experience prior to the arena exposure affects their play expression in the arena and whether their behaviour (in home pen) is affected if arena access is denied. Twenty pair-housed male lambs (average 14 weeks old), were exposed, in chronological order, to five treatments. Holding pen treat-ment (HP-control): Each pair was led into a holding pen (2.7 m2) and remained there for 5 minutes before returning to their home pen (6 m2). Holding pen ? arena treatment (HP-A): Each pair was led into a holding pen for 5 min and then was allowed access into the arena (22 m2, containing two hanging chains, one ball and one platform) for 15 min before re-turning to their home pen.

Psykologiska strategier vid cytostatikainduserad alopeci   : -Några personers positiva erfarenheter

Syftet med föreliggande studie var att belysa hur några individer, på ett positivt sätt, handskats med problematiken runt alopeci vid cytostaticabehandling. Följande frågeställningar har varit i fokus: Hur såg dessa individers copingstrategier ut innan, under och efter håravfall? Finns det någon gemensam nämnare mellan individer som till synes har en väl fungerande  copingstrategi? Ostrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes samt skriftliga källor såsom bloggar och berättelser användes.Det resultat som kunde utläsas ur materialet har bland annat pekat på hur olika kamoufalgestrategier använts samt hur situationsbundna dessa var. Flertalet deltagare använde sig av såkallade anicipatory coping, såsom att införskaffa olika typer av camoufalge som inte nödvändigtvis kom till användning senare. Två olika strategier användes för att handskas med alopecin, antingen inkorporrerades hårlösheten som en del av personligheten eller så sågs utseendeförändringen som en ovidkommande del av sjukdomsförloppet som var skiljd från personligheten.

Omvårdnadsinterventioner vid cytostatikainducerat illamående.

Illamående och kräkningar är fortfarande en vanlig biverkning i samband medcytostatikabehandling. Detta påverkar patientens livskvalitet och det dagliga livet.

Syftet med dennalitteraturstudie var att beskriva evidensbaserade omvårdnadsinterventioner som sjuksköterskan kananvända sig av vi cytostatikautlöst illamående hos patienter med cancer. Metoden var enlitteraturstudie baserat på vetenskapliga artiklar sökta via databasen Cinahl, PubMed och manuellsökning.

Strömmar av vatten och politik - en studie om policyprocesser och anpassning.

One of the distinguishing features of successful societies is the ability to adapt to change, bothsocial but also natural changes like climate change. Climate change is a complex, dynamic,non-linear process with a great deal of uncertainty concerning the time perspective, risks andconsequences. A combination of factors like climate change, geographical vulnerability, adensely populated and highly built up coast line along with factors like deficient handling ofsurface runoff and a large usage of ground water leads to an increasingly vulnerable society. Italso puts a greater pressure on the society to have preventive measures in place.The number of actors working with preparing society to the expected impacts of climatechange and variability is increasing. However more than half of Sweden?s municipalities donot consider changing climatic conditions when planning, and many times even allow theconstruction of new living areas in known climatically vulnerable areas.
