(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Recovery in co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders often involves relationships with professional helpers, yet little is known about how these are experienced by service users. The aim of this study was to ... -
Experiences of spirituality of in- and out-patients in mental health facilities: A thematic synthesis of qualitative studies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Recent decades have seen a significant rise in interest in spirituality in different mental health contexts. A comprehensive systematic review by Milner, Crawford, Edgley, Hare-Duke, and Slade (2019) shows that a gap exists ... -
Experiences of support in working toward personal recovery goals: A collaborative, qualitative study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background: Recovery can be understood as a subjective process guided by personal expectations, goals and hopes. The aim of the study was to explore how persons using a Community Mental Health Centre (CMHC) experienced ... -
Experiences using an instrument for non-technical skills in nurse anaesthesia education: a focus group study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Although there is an increasing amount of research on the use of structured behavioural assessment instruments for non-technical skills in a simulation or clinical setting, there is currently little research ... -
Experiment Setup for Focused Learning in Advanced Servo Control of DC-Motors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Remote laboratories are normally developed for giving students and others remote access to physical laboratory facilities. In contradiction to this, the main objective of the setup presented in this paper is to create a ... -
Experimental and computational studies of circulating fluidized bed
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Biomass gasification represents an efficient process for the production of power, heat and biofuels. Different technologies are used for gasification and this article focuses on a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) system. ... -
Experimental and computational studies on biomass gasification in fluidized beds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The world’s energy consumption is increasing, and research regarding utilization of renewable energy sources is crucial. Biomass for direct heating has been used for thousands of years, while in the last decades alternative ... -
