1. 21. Family-based dementia care : experiences from the perspective of spouses and adult children

   Författare :Wallis Jansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Dementia; family caregiver; spouses; adult children; burden; positive aspects; population-based study; observational study; intervention; visual problems.;

   Sammanfattning : Spouses' and adult childrens' experiences of being a caregiver to a relative with dementia were investigated and an intervention study was carried out and evaluated. Study I aimed to investigate how adult children (n=81) experienced their role as primary caregivers of parents suffering from dementia. LÄS MER

3. 22. The driver response process in assisted and automated driving

   Författare :Linda Pipkorn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; automation safety; take-over request; driver behavior; response process; automated driving; driving performance;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Safe assisted and automated driving can be achieved through a detailed understanding of the driver response process (the timing and quality of driver actions and visual behavior) triggered by an event such as a take-over request or a safety-relevant event. Importantly, most current evidence on driver response process in vehicle automation, and on automation effects (unsafe response process) is based on driving-simulator studies, whose results may not generalize to the real world.

4. 23. We, not them and us – a utopia? Relatives and nursing home staffs views on and experiences with each other

   Författare :Annika Hertzberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Relative; registered nurse; licensed practical nurse resident; nursing home; communication; interaction; relationship;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the study was to explore and describe the views and experiences that the relatives of the elderly living in nursing homes and the home's staff had about each other. A qualitative approach guided the methods used in the five studies. LÄS MER

5. 24. Mind the gap : transition to adulthood – youths' with disabilities and their caregivers' perspectives

   Författare :Elisabet Björquist; Eva Nordmark; Inger Hallström; Högskolan Väst; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Disability; youth; caregiver; transition to adulthood; immigrant; preferences; needs; Barn- och ungdomsvetenskap; Child and Youth studies; Socialt arbete; Social work; Disability; youth; caregiver; transition to adulthood; immigrant; preferences; needs.;

   Sammanfattning : Transition to adulthood, referring to the process of moving from childhood to adulthood, can be a complex period for youths with disabilities who might need special support transitioning into an independent life as adults. Caregivers are significant persons for the youths, which is why their own health and wellbeing is important. LÄS MER

7. 25. Computational Predictions of Conjugated Polymer Properties for Photovoltaic Applications

   Författare :Svante Hedström; Beräkningskemi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Conjugated polymers; density functional theory; organic photovoltaics; light-harvesting capabilities; quantum chemistry; absorption spectra; electronic structure; computational predictions;

   Sammanfattning : Organic solar cells employing fullerenes blended with conjugated polymers as the main light-absorbing material have achieved power conversion efficiencies exceeding 10%. They hold promise as an alternative energy source with many advantages in terms of long-term sustainability and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. LÄS MER
