Streszczenie:
Bakgrund: I Sverige drabbas varje år cirka 30 000 personer av stroke. En stroke innebär att en hjärninfarkt eller blödning uppstår i hjärnans blodkärl vilket leder till syrebrist. Många patienter som drabbats av stroke får sin rehabilitering och återhämtning i hemmet istället för på sjukhus. De uppger att behovet av stöd från sin partner är stor.Syfte: Studiens syfte var att beskriva partners upplevelser efter att den andra partnern drabbats av stroke.Metod: En litteraturstudie genomfördes med deskriptiv design. Systematiska sökningar har genomförts i databaserna Cinahl, Pubmed och Svemed+ som resulterade i tio vetenskapliga artiklar. Dataanalysen genomfördes med inspiration av innehållsanalys.Resultat: I resultatet framkom tre olika kategorier; Livsförändringar handlar om förändrad relation samt hinder och möjligheter i vardagen, Bristande stöd handlar om bristande socialt stöd och bristande stöd från hälso- och sjukvården och kategorin Känslomässiga reaktioner tar upp partners upplevelser av oro, rädsla, depressiva upplevelser, stress och undantryck av känslor.Slutsats: När en anhörig drabbats av stroke upplevde partners att livssituationen förändrades och känslor som oro, rädsla och stress präglade partners vardag. Partners upplevde att informationen var bristfällig, det var viktigt att sjukvården gav bra information. Möjligheten att besöka stödorganisationer var viktigt för partners.

Desde sus orígenes, tanto el cultivo de vides en nuestra provincia, como la producción de vinos y su comercialización, han ido evolucionando y atravesando diversidad de circunstancias y coyunturas. Desde la antigua producción artesanal y el consumo interno local, hasta la posición destacada de nuestros vinos a nivel internacional, con Mendoza a la cabeza de la producción nacional, hay un mundo de diferencias. Sin embargo, los tiempos actuales demandan una nueva visión y proyección, acorde a las necesidades globales. En este contexto entonces es que elaboramos la presente investigación, tendiente a constituirse en un aporte para que los productores se acerquen a las nuevas herramientas que desde las legislaciones y los recursos tecnológicos modernos pueden utilizar para acercarse a los mercados internacionales. Aunque aún hay camino que recorrer, ya que los costos todavía se ven perjudicados por las mecánicas cambiarias tan variables de nuestro país, sin embargo creemos que dichos problemas en algún momento se verán favorecidos por nuevas coyunturas, y para ese entonces es necesario que los productores - exportadores se encuentren ya preparados y familiarizados con las herramientas que se les proporciona.

This research explores the question: are parents partners? Far from being an evaluative study of the degree to which partnership is realised in practice, it is the very concept of partnership which has become the problematic I have examined. The focus of this study is a view of partnership which emerged in the mid nineteen eighties - the participatory model. This view of partnership is based on the principles of equality and reciprocity between parents and teachers. I contrast this rhetoric with how the reality of parental involvement is experienced. This is based on ethnographic research of parental participation in two schools. I have looked at the process, perspectives, adaptations and strategies which develop in day-to-day contact between parents, teaching staff and children. This is an aspect of parental involvement which has received little attention in previous academic research. My research highlights the assumptions which underlie both the principles of participatory partnership and existing accounts of the reality of parental involvement. Furthermore, I reveal the hidden reality of women and children as forgotten partners.

Thesis advisor: Shanta Pandey
A growing body of literature, particularly from low and middle-income countries, has focused on the role of male involvement in maternal care as a crucial strategy to improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes. The purpose of this three-paper dissertation is to add to this evidence base within the context of India, and to gain an in-depth understanding of one aspect of male involvement – that is, male partner attendance in antenatal care. This dissertation utilized data from the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-3, 2005-06 and NFHS-4, 2015-16) and was framed using the Social Ecological Model, Connell’s Theory of Gender and Power and a Gender-Transformative lens. Paper 1 summarized the levels of male partner attendance in antenatal care and assessed changes over time. Further, multivariable logistic regression models were used to examine the factors influencing male partner attendance in antenatal care. The results show an overall increase in male partner attendance in India during the period of 2005-06 to 2015-16, with the Southern region reporting the highest level of male partner attendance in both years. Higher level of education and household wealth, increased knowledge of pregnancy-related complications, older age at marriage, and women’s autonomy were positively associated with male partner attendance in antenatal care. Paper 2 examined the association between male partner attendance in antenatal care and maternal health service utilization. Controlling for all socio-demographic variables and adjusting for report of pregnancy complications, the results showed that women who were accompanied by a male partner for antenatal care reported increased odds of maternal health service utilization (early initiation of antenatal care, frequency of antenatal care contacts and institutional delivery). While the place of residence (rural/urban) did not influence the association between male partner attendance and maternal health service utilization, region had a significant moderating effect. Paper 3 examined the association between antenatal care and infant birth weight, adjusting for gestational age. Further, the analysis also assessed whether the relationship between antenatal care and infant birth weight varied by male partner attendance. Findings indicate that early initiation of antenatal care and maternal immunization was associated with reduced odds of low birth weight among infants. The results showed that male partner attendance in antenatal care did not have a moderating influence. Taken together, the findings of the three papers have implications for policy and practice; further, they provide support for interventions that aim for a more inclusive and gender-transformative approach to maternal and neonatal health

Parents play a central role in their children's education and social development and therefore can be extremely influential in children's attitudes, decisions and behaviour towards drugs. Despite this, there has been limited research to date which explores the parents' perspective and their needs in the area of drug education. This thesis reports on research which surveyed 92 parents of secondary students (Years 7-10) across ten secondary schools in the Australian Capital Territory. Two follow up focus group sessions, involving fourteen parents of secondary students, were also conducted with self-nominated parents of these respondents. The issues explored in the research include parents' concerns and knowledge of young people and drug issues, and their needs for a drug education program aimed at parents. The results show that parents see their role in drug education as a central one and are concerned about drugs in relation to their children and other young people. They are largely unaware of school drug policies and school drug education programs and want to work in closer partnership with the school and community in educating their children about drug issues. Parents identified a need for accurate and up to date information as they do not have sufficient knowledge in this area. Parents also identified a need to develop skills in dealing with adolescents and drug issues. This study provides insight into a range of parents' views on drug issues and confirms that parents would like to develop both knowledge and skills in order to support young people and reinforce school drug education programs. A number of implications of the results for the involvement of parents in drug education programs are presented, including: parent needs, strategies for delivery/ implementation and motivating factors for encouraging parental participation in such programs.

Streszczenie:
HES6 is a novel member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors that is involved in the activation of the myoblast differentiation program. Studies demonstrated that HES6 can regulate transcription from gene promoters containing an N box (CACNAG), a DNA motif located in the regulatory regions of many muscle-specific genes involved in myoblast differentiation. This suggested that a HES6 heterodimer could bind to the N box. The purpose of this study was to identify putative HES6 dimerization partners that would allow it's binding to the N box and then repress transcription. A genome-wide screen isolated several clones. Potential positive clones, the heat shock proteins HSP169 and HSP70 were identified. The functional significance of this interaction remains to be determined. A candidate gene approach allowed detection of an interaction in vivo between HES6 and a novel hairy-related bHLH protein, CHF2. This interaction was detected by co-immunoprecipitation using the first specific anti-HES6 antibody synthesized. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays revealed that the heterodimer was unable to bind to any of the N-boxes present in the 5'-flanking region of CHF2, which was confirmed by assessing the specificity of the controls used in the experiments. It was suggested that HES6 sequesters CHF2 by the formation of an inactive heterodimer. Although a band shift was observed when incubating each of the Nboxes in the presence of total cell extract from differentiated C2C12 cells, it was not confirmed whether HES6 was one of the proteins binding to the oligonucleotides. This work has identified a novel interaction between HES6 and CHF2 and our data suggests that this interaction lead to formation of inactive heterodimers.

The product of the breast and ovarian cancer predisposition gene, BRCAI, is a large protein with two main recognised motifs; the N-terrninal RING and C-terrninal BRCT. The N-tenninus has been reported to interact with at least eight proteins (MSH2, ATFI, ERalpha, BAPI, p300, NPMlB23, UbcH5A and BARDI). In order to test the relevance of these interacting partners to the BRCAI tumour suppressor activity, we intended to test patient derived missense variants upon each interaction. We found that of the eight potential partners, only BARDI and the ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UbcH5A interacted with the BRCAI N-terrninal region, by yeast two-hybrid assays. The BRCAI/UbcH5A interaction was also confirmed in mammalian cells by FRET analysis. To determine }Vhether these interactions, or their abrogation, might fonn part of the BRCAI-mediated tumorigenesis pathway we undertook an extensive mutagenesis study. Our results show that all known pathogenic missense mutations and the majority ofBRCAI N-terrninal unclassified variants, found in populations enriched for family history ofdisease, weakened or abolished the BRCAI/UbcH5A interaction. Loss of ubiquitin ligase activity measured biochemically, and in cells, correlated with BRCAI/UbcH5A disruption. Finally, in silico prediction, based on evolutionary conservation and protein structural analysis supported and complemented our mutagenesis results. Overall, our data provide functional evidence that the BRCAI/UbcH5A interaction is highly sensitive to missense substitution and suggest that the ubiquitin pathway is likely to play an important role in BRCAI-mediated tumorigenesis. Even though we could not detect a direct interaction between BRCAI and MSH2, our study on MSH2-deficient primary human cells implicated MSH2 in the homologous recombination repair pathway.

Globally, teachers and school leaders are increasingly encouraging parents to become more directly involved in their children’s schooling and academic development. This study was designed to support the parents of students who experience difficulty with academic learning via a school-based Parent Mindset Program comprised of three parent engagement workshops delivered fortnightly over six weeks by a teacher. The Program was designed to support participants to practice growth mindset knowledge and skills at home with their child and receive feedback to support skill mastery. Cognitive tools were used to create the social process essential for learning by providing a point of reference and opportunities for parents to discuss, inquire, and problem-solve with other parents and the presenter. From the socio-cultural perspective, this study aimed to develop the capacity of parents as partners in learning to support their children during the time when they are not in the classroom and thus align the parents’ contributions with the supportive approach used in the school. An intrinsic case study research design enabled the development of a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of parental engagement in their child’s schooling. Three elements were found to have influenced the effectiveness of the parent engagement program’s capacity to increase parental self-efficacy to engage in their child’s schooling: demographic factors; participant motivation factors; and, the instructional design of the program.

Streszczenie:
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in humans throughout the world and “congenital heart defects” (CHDs) are the major cause of infant mortality and morbidity. GATA4 is one of the most critical and intensely studied cardiac transcription factor. It is important for proliferation of cardiomyocytes as well as their survival and adaptive response. The focus of the following thesis was to identify GATA4 mediators and cofactors in cardiac growth. The first part focused on cyclin D2 (CycD2), a growth inducible cell cycle protein. We identified Ccnd2 (gene encoding CycD2) as a direct transcriptional target of GATA4 in postnatal cardiomyocytes and Ccnd2 cardiomyocyte specific overexpression in Gata4 heterozygote mice was able to rescue their heart size and function. We further uncovered a novel regulatory loop between GATA4 and CycD2. CycD2 enhanced GATA4 activation of its target promoters. GATA4 was able to physically interact with CycD2 and its cyclin dependent kinase CDK4 suggesting that GATA4 recruits CycD2/CDK4 to its target promoters. Together, our data uncover a role of CycD2 in the developing and postnatal heart and provide novel insight for the potential of targeting the cell cycle in cardiac therapy. The second part of the project focused on KLF13, a cell specific cofactor of GATA4. KLF13 is a member of the Krϋppel-like transcription factors that are important regulators of cell proliferation and differentiation. Klf13 is highly enriched in the developing heart where it is found in both myocardial and endocardial cells. To determine its role in the mammalian heart, we deleted the Klf13 gene in transgenic mice. Klf13-/- mice were born at 50% reduced frequency and presented with variable cardiac phenotypes. Epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) was affected in these mice and reduced cell proliferation was evident in the AV cushion. These data uncover a role for a new class of transcription factors in heart formation and point to KLF13 as a regulator of endocardial cell proliferation and a potential CHD causing gene. Future discovery of more cardiac regulators and understanding the molecular basis of CHDs is essential for preventions of these defects and possible development of therapeutic approaches for myocardial repair.

Bakgrund: Kvinnors brottslighet utgör endast en minimal del av brottsligheten som existerar,eftersom det i regel är män som begår brott. Detta speglas av brist på kunskap om kvinnligaförövare. Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att belysa det studerade ämnet och på så sätt ökauppmärksamheten i samhället för kvinnliga mördare. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudieutfördes om de gemensamma faktorer kvinnliga mördare har. Resultat: Kvinnor mördar somsvar på mäns våld i en relation, oftast i självförsvar. Ett flertal av de kvinnliga förövarnadödar en intim partner, i en nödsakad situation, som ett alternativ till att inte själv blimördade. De tenderar att lida av psykisk ohälsa, mörda i det gemensamma hemmet ochanvända kniv som mordvapen. Slutsats: Kärnan i ett proaktivt tillvägagångssätt är detförebyggande arbetet innan det dödliga våldet blir ett alternativ. Med kunskapen i hand är detav stor vikt att inledningsvis fokusera på partnervåld. Det är uppenbart att den kvinnligaförövaren agerar i rädsla och i självförsvar, vilket gör dem till egna beskyddare närrättsväsendet misslyckas.
Background: Crime committed by women constitutes a minimal part of the overall crimerate. Generally, men are the ones committing majority of crimes. This is reflected by a lack ofknowledge of female perpetrators. Purpose: The purpose of the study is to highlight thesubject studied and thus increase the overall attitude towards female murderers in order toclear up the confusion when solving these cases. Method: A systematic literature study wasconducted to investigate the common denominators among the female perpetrators. Result:Women commit murders in response to men's violence, usually in a relationship and inself-defense. The majority of the female perpetrators kill their intimate partner in fair of notbeing the victim of murder them selves, the motive strictly self-defense. The femaleperpetrators hold some common denominators; mental illness, the crime happen in thecommon home and a knife is usually the murder weapon of choice. Conclusion: The essenceof proactive approach is the preventative work ahead of the crime committed. With theknowledge at hand, law enforcement need to focus on partner violence. It is obvious that theperpetrator act in fear and in self-defense, making them their own protectors when the lawenforcement fails them.

The following research study aimed to discover the relationships and contributions that parent partners have in the reunification process of parents and children within the child welfare system. The study utilized a quantitative secondary data analysis design and the data were obtained from a Southern California Children and Family Services agency within the CWS/CMS database, as well as the parent partner database. Data were analyzed through SPSS software and descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were conducted to describe and assess the variables of interest. A total of 296 participants were used in the study and the majority of parents (73%) had an open case due to multiple allegations. The study found that there existed a statistically significant relationship between the utilization of the parent partner service and the likelihood of reunification. Furthermore, the study also revealed that as the number of contacts between a parent and a parent partner increased, the more likely the parent was to accomplish his/her goals. The study found that, specifically, during their open case, as 60% of parents reunified when they met 11 to 20 times with their parent partner. This study suggests that it would be a beneficial resource for child welfare agencies to incorporate the parent partner program as part of their practice. Furthermore, the agencies and counties that have already implemented the parent partner program may encourage their social workers to continuously recommend a parent partner for their clients. The research study would benefit from further research to assess the types of interactions parents and parent partners have during contacts.

Chatbots are becoming more common in modern society, but there are almost no studies that explore both the differences and causes that divides human communication from communication with a chatbot. The aim of this thesis was to explore different recipient design people take when communicating with a human and a chatbot. A chatbot was built and an experiment was conducted that measured the performance and experience of the participants. A thematic analysis then found out causes for these experiences. The study focused on finding new differences in addition to exploring people’s boredom, frustration, understanding, repetition, and performance in a task. The study found differences and causes in people’s recipient design when communicating with a human compared to a chatbot, as well as differences in the performance of a task. Hopefully, this will help future research figure out solutions for the differences found.

Streszczenie:
This thesis describes the conditions that influence technology acquisition when an industry partner is involved. The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the knowledge regarding the conditions that affect effective acquisition of technology by collaboration by identifying and describing the relationship between the following variables: key activities and influential factors. The results are drawn from the analysis of eleven case studies involving experiences from different industries including chemicals, oil and gas and biofuels. The research adopts the perspective of an acquiring firm, which is interested in incorporating a new technology into its operations in order to meet a particular business need. Such a business need can be, for example, entering into a new market, meeting key customer requirements or improving operational efficiency. The results indicate that technology acquisition involving an industry partner can be described as a six-stage process where the acquiring firm may or may not get involved in the development of the technology concept. During the process a number of factors can influence the acquisition and implementation of the technology in the acquiring firm’s operations. These factors can be divided into six categories: business alignment, structural match, development management, technology uncertainty, implementation opportunity and contextual factors. The results also suggest that effective acquisition of technology by means of collaboration is achieved by the combination of three conditions: effective partnership management, effective execution of the co-development project and effective transference of the technology to the recipient system in the acquiring firm. The research provides relevant implications for theory and practice. On the one hand, technology acquisition by means of collaboration has been marginally addressed in technology management literature; extant literature has given more attention to organisational modes to acquire technology by collaboration rather than increasing our understanding of the dynamics of technology partnerships. On the other hand, the outcomes offer practitioners an account of the key factors and activities in technology acquisition projects involving an industry partner. These insights are key to systematically managing collaborative projects aimed at acquiring new technologies.

Streszczenie:
Postpartum Psychosis is a severe mental health problem following childbirth, with a psychotic element and associated mood disturbance. Research to date has primarily focused on mothers’ experiences, and on identifying risk factors, aetiology, and intervention efficacy. Within both research and clinical communities, there has been little acknowledgement of partners’ experiences of Postpartum Psychosis, nor the important support role that partners can provide. The aim of this study was to consider the lived experiences of partners of women who have had Postpartum Psychosis, and the impact that it has had on their lives and relationships. Participants were partners recruited through the charity Action for Postpartum Psychosis. Partners were asked to complete an online questionnaire to provide basic demographic and contextual information, followed by an in-depth, semi-structured interview regarding their experiences of Postpartum Psychosis. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to analyse the interview transcripts. Partners reported a lack of support being provided to them, and typically perceived a deterioration in the quality of their couple relationship during, and following, the episode of Postpartum Psychosis. Seven superordinate themes were extracted from the interview data: powerlessness; united vs. individual coping; hypothesising and hindsight; barriers to accessing care and unmet needs; managing multiple roles; loss; and positive changes from Postpartum Psychosis. These findings provide a rich illustration of the experiences of partners, and highlight areas in which support could be provided for partners. Limitations of the study, and implications for future research and clinical practice, are discussed.

Streszczenie:
Gelsolin is composed of six similarly folded domains, G1 through G6. It controls actin dynamics through its calcium-sensitive ability to bind to, sever, and cap F-actin filaments. This project was designed to test and extend current models for gelsolin activity by growing crystals of intact gelsolin or large fragments of gelsolin in protein complexes with its main target, actin, as well as with specialized gelsolin-specific antibody fragments, nanobodies. Gelsolin-specific nanobodies (GsnVHH) may serve to lock in either resting or activated forms of gelsolin structure, but are of intrinsic interest on their own in that they have potential therapeutic value. This thesis describes cloning, expression, purification, activity assays, crystallization details, and solution of the structures of six proteins and protein complexes. 1) Recombinant human G1-G3 bound to natural source rabbit actin (G1-G3:actin). The present structure is to a higher resolution than earlier ones, providing increased confidence in positioning of amino acid side chains and bound Ca²⁺ ions. 2) Isolated, activated gelsolin domain G3. While not previously reported in the literature, this structure is virtually identical to that observed for activated G3 within the G1-G3:actin complex. 3) Activated recombinant human G4-G6. The source material and crystallization conditions are different from those reported elsewhere, but the results confirm that the C-terminal half of gelsolin can be fully activated in the presence of Ca²⁺, even in the absence of actin. 4) and 5) Two crystal structures of GsnVHH11. This nanobody had not previously been crystallized. The two structures differ in the path of the CDR1 loop that is involved in binding gelsolin. 6) GsnVHH9. The results, from different materials and crystallization conditions than previously reported, confirm the validity of the previous structure. Finally, runs using in silico protein-protein docking software suggest possible binding sites for GsnVHH11 and GsnVHH13 on activated G2-G3 and activated G4-G6, respectively.

Bakgrund Självständigt arbete Datum: 2013-02-22 Hotell- och bokningssidor på internet är två olika branscher, som både är partners och konkurrenter med varandra. Principen för bokningssidorna är att de jämför priser på olika hotell och rumskategorier för att sedan sälja till lägsta pris till den som bokar. En gemensam nämnare för bokningsföretagen är att de inte gör detta gratis, utan erhåller en avgift per förmedlad rum från hotellen. Syfte Denna litteraturstudie syftar till att undersöka om hotell tjänar på ett samarbete med onlineresebyråer. Metod och material Denna litteraturstudie genomfördes med en grund av vetenskapliga artiklar som publicerats på internet och tryckts i vetenskapliga journaler. Resultat Resultatet av artiklarna visar att det hotell eller den bokningssida på internet som har lägst pris, bäst erbjudande och den mest användarvänliga hemsidan, lockar till sig flest bokande gäster. Diskussion Hotellen och bokningssidorna är beroende av varandra. Hotellen blir exponerade vilket kunde leda till att bokningen genomförs genom hotellets egen hemsida, vilket är målet för hotellkedjorna. Alternativt sker bokningarna på bokningssidorna, vid vilket tillfälle OTA:erna erhåller en kommission. Slutsats Hotellen tjänar på att ingå partnerskap med onlineresebyråerna, då dem ökar antalet bokningar till hotellen. Hotellen skall dock fortsätta med att locka gästerna till att boka via hotellens egna hemsidor.

Streszczenie:
Protein Kinase C (PKC) comprises a family of phospholipid-dependent Ser/Thr kinases, implicated in a broad array of cellular processes. PKC activity is subject to a complex network of regulatory inputs, including co-factor binding, phosphorylation and protein-protein interaction. In addition, the chronic activation of PKC frequently leads to its down-regulation this process may be intrinsic to the tumour promoting activity of the phorbol esters. The aim of this work was to investigate the regulation of the novel PKC-e isoform by binding partners and phosphorylation, with a particular focus on the process of agonist-induced degradation. A yeast 2-hybrid screen was performed using a PKC-e bait and two novel binding partners were identified, both with associations to the ubiquitin/proteasome system VHL Binding Protein 1 (VBP1) and F-box WD40 protein 7 (Fbw7). Interactions were verified in mammalian cells and mapped to the catalytic domain of PKC-e. Extensive studies revealed that neither partner influenced the process of PKC-e down-regulation. However, Fbw7a was demonstrated to represent an in vitro PKC substrate. The site of phosphorylation was mapped to Ser-18 and, using phospho-specific antibodies, was shown to be phosphorylated in the cell. PKC-e activity is required for its agonist-induced degradation. Studies were therefore undertaken to investigate autophosphorylation, which may be implicated in this process. Serine residues 234, 316 and 368 were identified as novel PKC-e autophosphorylation sites. Using phospho- specific antibodies, all three sites were shown to be occupied in response to PKC-e activation. Phosphorylation at these sites was found not to influence agonist-induced PKC-e down-regulation. However, a critical role was established for phosphorylated Ser-368, in the recruitment of the PKC-e binding partner, 14-3-3(3. Together these findings provide insight into the mechanisms controlling PKC-e activity and demonstrate a relationship between regulation through phosphorylation and protein-protein interaction.

The Egyptian Strategic Tourism Development Plans are trying to play an increasingly important role in supporting the hoped-for transformation of Egypt's undeveloped areas into world-class tourism destinations. This research investigated the relationship between mass-tourism development and local communities in the southern part of the Red Sea region. It has been undertaken to investigate barriers to change and assess means of promoting local communities' involvement and evaluate roles and values of their participation. The study sought to clarify the conflicts between local communities and government which result from the tourism development structure, which has neglected locals' rights. Consequently, the concept of sustainable tourism development (STD) and the interaction between tourism and environment, economy, society and culture are examined along with in depth analysis of the main characteristics influencing the host community. The investigation aims to understand the range of perception of tourism development stakeholders, so local communities, private sector parties, decision makers and tourism development facilitators such as consultants and NGOs have been investigated. Local communities' opportunities, threats, strengths and weaknesses have been explored. Under the umbrella of STD a clear vision arises of the existing conditions surrounding local communities, not only in terms of their needs and their problems but also as a means to categorize local communities' customs, intercultural and traditional life style. Recommendations aimed to secure improvements for local communities are discussed through explaining a rationale, standards, policy integration and roles for tourism development stakeholders. It is suggested that by promoting local communities' key factors and using a community-based tourism approach in the study area, local people may be empowered and problems that hinder sustainability may be addressed.

Streszczenie:
The C type natriuretic peptide receptor (NPRC) also known as NPR3 is a widely expressed single transmembrane-spanning protein. NPRC functions as a homodimer at the cell surface for the metabolic clearance of a broad range of natriuretic peptides from circulation. The intracellular domain of NPRC is coupled to inhibitory G proteins and is involved in mediating signal transduction. In order to further elucidate the role of NPRC in signal transduction a proteomic approach was taken to identify putative protein binding partners for NPRC in different cell-types. An interrogation of the molecular association between NPRC and its identified protein binding partner(s) was carried out in different cell types to identify the specific interacting domains. The physiological role of the association between NPRC and its protein binding partner(s) were investigated in situ. Furthermore NPRC is subject to post translation modifications including glycosylation and phosphorylation. Although evidence suggests NPRC is phosphory ated on serine residues the specific amino acid residues that are phosphorylated and the kinases responsible for their phosphorylation has yet to be determined. A recombinant GST-NPRC fusion protein polyclonal NPRC antibody kinase prediction algorithm and several phosphospecific and substrate motif antibodies were utilized to characterize the phosphorylation state of NPRC in vitro.

This thesis explores how organizations competent at harnessing the collective power of low-income immigrants might successfully combine their strategies to advance the well-being of their mutual constituencies. Based in Durham, North Carolina, the LCCU is a successful community development credit union that delivers financial products and financial education programs to a fast growing low-income Latino community. Based in New York City, New York, 1199SEIU is a successful local labor union that organizes low-income workers to negotiate fair wages and benefits. The LCCU and 1199SEIU represent two dissimilar models of harnessing collective power in different geographic areas in the U.S. Yet, an in-depth analysis at the history of these organizations finds certain elements of common ground upon which they could base a potential partnership. The LCCU and 1199SEIU serve a mutual constituency of low-income immigrants and share the mutual goal of improving their lives. Furthermore, an analysis of their unique competences exposes complementary sets of skills and resources. Given the existence of common ground and a subsequent interest from each organization in exploring a potential partnership, this thesis attempts to answer the following question: Can the LCCU and 1199SEIU be partners? This thesis argues that the LCCU and 1199SEIU can generate synergistic possibilities of collaboration by combining their unique competences to pursue mutual interests. However, this synergy also exposes challenges to the implementation of such possibilities. This thesis concludes by recommending a series of next steps for the LCCU and 1199SEIU to follow in order to overcome these challenges and make their potential partnership a reality.

This thesis investigates the long-run stability of Cointegrated pairs in the Swedish Equity Market. Stability is evaluated by estimating pairs in an in-sample period then rolling the win- dow forward. A Pairs Trading strategy is then applied to the estimated pairs and traded out-of-sample. The relationships are found to diminish over time and most break o. Negative compound annual growth rates are obtained for the period. However there are enough lasting cointegrating relationships for the strategy to be applicable but the returns are highly dependent on the complexity of the trading rules.

Women have been the focus of a great deal of research on opiate addiction and treatment because their gender is assumed to matter for their experiences in the drug world. Much of this has focused on women's experiences as mothers and caregivers. While men are often included as subjects in research on opiate addiction and treatment, their experiences as gendered beings are rarely analyzed. This research foregrounds men's gendered experiences as fathers, family members, and partners while in methadone maintenance treatment. Using data from addiction history interviews with 33 opiate-dependent men recruited from a single methadone clinic in Arizona, I find that men assign considerable significance to their family relationships. The men interviewed report that their experiences as fathers, grandfathers, sons, grandsons, brothers, husbands, and boyfriends both motivate them to seek methadone treatment for opiate addiction, and cause stress that sometimes pushes them to use or relapse on opiates. Given the importance of these men's family relationships, I argue that the marginalized masculinity of impoverished, drug-dependent men includes an ethic of care. Additionally, I argue that counselors in methadone clinics should consider men in the context of their family relationships in order to provide better treatment to men struggling to recover from opiate addiction.

Streszczenie:
The anthropology of public policy critically examines policy and its processes and the myriad ways in which power is exercised. To explore these power dynamics, anthropologists studying policy often study up, or study through a particular policy field. This entails the risky work of studying powerful people, whose ability to retaliate against the researcher and others create methodological and ethical dilemmas and contradictions, as well as potentially harmful consequences. Politicians, bureaucrats, employees of powerful non-profits, and, in the public-private neoliberal reality, even the head decision makers within corporations are all prospective research participants--an intimidating prospect for most anthropologists. In contrast, engaged ethnography, with its presupposition that researchers will be aligned with politically marginalized groups, encourages the researcher to engage on a more transparent, reflexive, and expressly positioned level that attempts to make the researcher more exposed, thus equalizing the power differentials between the researcher and the researched. The inherent contradictions between engaged ethnography and studying up create a situation ripe for methodological and ethical dilemmas, but also for breaking new theoretical ground. This paper will critically examine my experiences with a dominant community development corporation involved in housing and urban development. As such, the purpose of this thesis is twofold. First, I aim to explore the theoretical contradictions, ethical dilemmas, and methodological quandaries that arise from pairing engaged anthropology with the studying up required by the anthropology of public policy. The aim of this query is to show how the difficulties that arose during my thesis research project expose gaps within each body of literature. Second, I hope to present engaging-up as a promising (not just problematic) method that can be employed to better understand a myriad of topical interests of anthropology. Because of its promise, it is important to document this failed attempt so that others may be better prepared. As such, my hope is that my consideration of the contradictions that were unable to be overcome will be described with enough ethnographic clarity and framed in broad enough methodological terms as to be helpful to other engaged ethnographers.

Streszczenie:
The models with a Higgs boson realized as a bound state of new strongly coupled dynamics and fea- turing the Goldstone symmetry protection mechanism, ensuring its lightness, represent a motivated scenario of New Physics at the TeV scale. We summarize the main ideas behind the formulation of these Composite Higgs (CH) models, focusing on the scenarios invoking the paradigm of Partial Compositeness, the mechanism of Standard Model fermion mass generation by mixing with compos- ite resonances. After reviewing the theoretical tools for the description of the CH setup, we derive structural phenomenological features, and in particular a general relation, valid for a broad class of models, between the Higgs mass and masses of the top partners, i.e. the composite resonances responsible for giving a mass to the top quark through Partial Compositeness. This relation implies that, for a “natural” theory, the top partners are restricted to have a mass below around 1.5 TeV, significantly below the other resonances, and they play a primary role for phenomenology. First of all, their direct observation at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) seems unavoidable if the considered scenarios are indeed realized in Nature without accidental per-cent tuning. We develop a general minimally model-dependent framework, accounting for the Goldstone nature of the Higgs, in order to identify the best strategies for top partners searches at the LHC. Using current data we exclude a considerable part of the natural parameter space of the CH models. We present an estimate of the future LHC reach for two interesting channels. The light top partners could also manifest themselves in indirect way, contributing to the low-energy observables of the ElectroWeak Precision Tests. Our analysis shows that in this case top partners play an important role for compatibility of CH scenarios with experimental data, in particular we identify a new, potentially large, logarithmically divergent contribution to the S parameter. At the same time we show that the effects dependent on the details of the UV dynamics are important and can give contributions comparable with IR effects, and thus must be taken into account, as for instance the four-fermion operators contributing to Zbb coupling.
I modelli con un Higgs Composto, realizzato come un bosone di Goldstone e dunque naturalmente leggero, costituiscono uno scenario ben motivato di nuova fisica alla scala del TeV. Discuteremo la formulazione di tali modelli, seguendo il paradigma della ”Partial Compositeness” per la generazione delle masse dei fermioni del Modello Standard tramite il mescolamento con delle risonanze del nuovo settore forte. Dopo aver introdotto gli strumenti tecnici necessari, deriveremo alcune caratteristiche fenomenologiche strutturali, ed in particolare una relazione generale, valida in un’ampia classe di modelli, che lega la massa del bosone di Higgs a quella dei ”Top Partners”, ovvero le risonanze fermioniche responsabili per la generazione della massa del quark top attraverso il meccanismo di Partial Compositeness sopra descritto. Questa relazione implica che in una teoria ”Naturale” i Top Partners sono necessariamente leggeri, con massa al di sotto di circa 1.5 TeV, significativamente pi leggeri delle altre risonanze. Dunque, essi giocano un ruolo fondamentale nella fenomenologia di questi modelli. Prima di tutto, questi stati sono potenzialmente osservabili con relativa facilit al Large Hadron Collider (LHC) del CERN. Svilupperemo uno descrizione semplificata dei Top Partners, adatta per studiarne la fenomenologia al collider, che tuttavia mantenga le caratteristiche teoriche pi importanti dei modelli espliciti, in particolare il fatto che l’Higgs sia un bosone di Gold- stone. Confronteremo il modello semplificato con i dati attuali, identificando le regioni escluse del suo spazio dei parametri, e discuteremo le prospettive del futuro run dell’LHC per lo studio di questo tipo di segnali. I Top Partners hanno anche effetti indiretti, contribuendo alle osservabili di bassa energia che sono alla base dei Test di Precisione del Modello Standard. Analizzeremo questi effetti in dettaglio, identificando nuovi contributi, potenzialmente rilevanti, al parametro S. Discuteremo anche altri possibili contributi alle osservabili di precisione, non legati ai Top Partner leggeri ma ai dettagli della fisica microscopica del modello completo da cui i Top Partners emergono. In al- cuni casi, per esempio per quanto riguarda il coupling della Z al quark bottom, questi contributi sono comparabili o dominanti rispetto a quelli dovuti ai Top Partners e devono essere tenuti in considerazione.

Background. Perinatal mood problems are a significant public health issue that adversely affect the individual, compromise the partner relationship, and can have significant deleterious effects on the child’s development. Despite the availability of effective treatments, few parents who experience emotional difficulties during pregnancy or following childbirth seek professional help. The high prevalence of perinatal depression and anxiety and low rates of help-seeking indicate a need for effective universal prevention approaches. Partner support is an ideal target for prevention efforts because it is consistently identified as one of the strongest protective factors against perinatal mood problems. The aim of this thesis by publication was to develop a father and same-sex partner inclusive on-line intervention for preventing perinatal depression and anxiety that enhances partners’ understanding of how they can be mutually supportive of one another during the transition to parenthood. Method. An evidence-informed intervention named Partners to Parents (http://www.partnerstoparents.org) was developed using a mixed methods sequential design. First, a systematic review was conducted to evaluate existing interventions that aim to prevent perinatal depression and anxiety by targeting the intimate partner relationship. Second, the risk and protective factors for perinatal depression and anxiety that are potentially modifiable by partners without professional assistance were identified via a systematic review and meta-analysis. Third, a Delphi consensus study was conducted to translate the research evidence identified by the meta-analysis into specific actions that partners can take to be mutually supportive of one another and reduce their vulnerability to perinatal depression and anxiety. The resulting recommendations were (1) formatted into a guidelines document for dissemination to new and expectant parents, and (2) translated into a prototype of the Partners to Parents on-line intervention. The website was refined through usability testing with a sample of men and women who were pregnant or parenting an infant aged up to 24 months. Results. The initial systematic review of interventions for preventing perinatal distress that address partner support or the couple relationship found that a number of these have shown benefits. Nonetheless, the findings indicated that there remains a need for interventions that are easily accessible, scalable, father-inclusive, and target both antenatal and postnatal outcomes. The systematic review and meta-analysis of risk and protective factors that are modifiable by partners found that there is sound evidence that emotional closeness and partner support protect against perinatal depression and anxiety. There was also sound evidence for the protective effect of communication, emotional and instrumental support, and relationship satisfaction against perinatal depression, while conflict increases risk. The Delphi consensus study recruited two panels of experts in perinatal mental health (21 consumer advocates and 39 professionals) to rate the extent to which they believed a series of actions, derived from a review of academic and lay literature, are important for the prevention of perinatal depression and anxiety. A total of 214 recommendations on how partners can support one another were endorsed as important or essential by at least 80% of both panels, and formed the basis for the content of a prototype of the on-line intervention. Usability testing with 12 parents (7 women and 5 men) to inform development of the website yielded more than 250 comments on system and content quality, potential barriers to accessing the website, and suggestions for improvement. Generally, the findings suggested that the Partners to Parents intervention is perceived as appealing and relevant by expectant and new parents. The feedback also facilitated a series of refinements, including improved graphic design, layout, and navigability, smart phone and tablet compatibility, Search Engine Optimisation, and improved readability. Conclusion. Partners to Parents provides a novel approach to the prevention of perinatal depression and anxiety. It is supported by the research literature, endorsed by perinatal mental health professionals and consumers, and seen as acceptable and relevant by parents. This web-based intervention has the potential to contribute to reducing the public health burden of perinatal depression and anxiety and optimising parental and infant outcomes. Future research is necessary to establish the extent to which the intervention enhances relationship satisfaction and support, and prevents perinatal depression and anxiety.

Identifying the molecular and genetic pathways important for heart development and deciphering the causes of CHD are still a challenging puzzle. A newly identified piece of this puzzle is KLF13, a member of the Krüppel-like family of zinc-finger proteins, was found to be important for atrial septation and ventricular trabeculation of Xenopus embryos. The protein is expressed predominantly in the heart, binds evolutionarily-conserved regulatory elements on cardiac promoters, and activates cardiac transcription. In this study we examined KLF13 mechanism of action by investigating its transcriptional activity on the ANF promoter using a deletion/mutagenesis approach. We reported the identification of a new synergistic partnership between KLF13 and the individual cardiac transcription factors TBX5, NKX2.5, PEX1, and CATF1. Also, we localized KLF13’s transcriptional activation domain, the nuclear localization region/zinc-fingers, and the DNA binding zinc-fingers. This study will provide insight into the contribution of KLF13 to the development of CHDs.

Streszczenie:
Children belong to one of the most vulnerable population groups to crime. Child victims of crime have to overcome the difficulties emerging from their victimization as well as those resulting from their participation in the adversarial criminal justice process. Child victims are typically treated by legal systems as either mere witnesses -- prosecutorial instruments -- or as objects of protection. Children's human rights and their needs beyond immediate protection are typically ignored. ¶ This thesis combines an examination of children's human rights (articulated largely in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child) with a review of psycho-social literature on children's needs. It integrates the two disciplines thus creating a `needs-rights' model regarding child victims. This model is then used to evaluate the criminal justice process and its successes (and failures) in meeting the needs and rights of child victims. Such an integrated needs-rights evaluation identifies not only the difficulties associated with testifying in court and being interviewed multiple times. It goes beyond these topical issues, and uncovers other shortcomings of the current legal system such as the lack of true participation of child victims in the decision-making process, the neglect of rehabilitative and developmental interests of victimized children, and the inherent inability of the adversarial process to seek proactively the best interests of child victims. ¶ The thesis further explores an alternative to the criminal justice process -- that of restorative justice -- and examines its applicability to child victims. Unlike the criminal justice paradigm, restorative justice fosters the equal participation of the stakeholders (in particular victims, offenders and their communities), and focuses on their emotional and social rehabilitation while respecting their human rights. To explore the suitability of restorative justice for child victims, five restorative justice schemes from New Zealand, Australia and Canada and their evaluation studies are reviewed. Each of these schemes has included child victims, and most of them have dealt with either sexual assaults of children or family violence and abuse. Yet each of the evaluated schemes illuminates different concerns and proposes varying strategies for meeting the needs-rights of child victims. ¶ While these schemes demonstrate the significant potential of restorative justice to better address the full scope of the needs and rights of child victims, they uncover emerging concerns as well. Therefore, in the last part of the thesis, the needs-rights model is used once again to derive subsidiary principles for action, to maximize the benefits of restorative justice for child victims and minimize the related risks. A complex set of needs and rights is managed by a method of grouping them into needs-rights clusters and deriving from them simple heuristics for practitioners to follow. This clustering method of needs-rights-heuristics is a methodological contribution of the research to the psychology of law.
