The housing strategies of sole mothers in inner city Hobart
Creators: name: Watchorn, EM
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The location of different social groups within metropolitan areas has always been a focus of study for Geographers. Sole mothers as a particular sub-group in society have grown over the last 10 years, at a rate faster than that for families headed by sole fathers or couples. The focus of the study is on the location of this particular group in inner city housing. The required result was an understanding of why this particular outcome should exist. The understanding was acquired by looking at a set of broad structural processes that contribute to the conditions in the housing and labour markets in Australia, and the relationship different sole mothers have within this structure. The overall understanding developed from this study was of the importance of structure and the strategies formed by the individuals in explaining the outcome. The method also recognises the potential of processes to undergo change and the implication this may have for the future housing strategies of sole mothers.

description: We report an actuation/detection scheme with a top-down nano-electromechanical system for frequency shift-based sensing applications with outstanding performance. It relies on electrostatic actuation and piezoresistive nanowire gauges for in-plane motion transduction. The process fabrication is fully CMOS compatible. The results show a very large dynamic range (DR) of more than 100dB and an unprecedented signal to background ratio (SBR) of 69dB providing an improvement of two orders of magnitude in the detection efficiency presented in the state of the art in NEMS field. Such a dynamic range results from both negligible 1/f-noise and very low Johnson noise compared to the thermomechanical noise. This simple low-power detection scheme paves the way for new class of robust mass resonant sensor.

description: In dieser Arbeit wurde ein Siliziumkarbid (SiC) Dünnfilm auf Silizium Wafern, mittels SMP10, einem flüssigen, keramischen Polymer aufgebracht. Am ISAS der Technische Universität Wien wurde eine monokristalline SiC Folie entwickelt, welche helfen soll, die auftretenden Säge- und Polierverluste bei der Herstellung von Leistungsbauelementen auf monokristallinen SiC Wafern zu minimieren, indem die Folie auf polykristalline SiC Wafer gebondet wird. Zu Beginn dieser Untersuchungen dienen Si Wafer aus Kostengründen für Versuchszwecke. Für diesen Bond-Vorgang soll der Dünnfilm als eine Art Klebeschicht dienen. Um diesem Zweck zu genügen, muss der SiC Dünnfilm eine dichte und zusammenhängende Schicht bilden. Für die Herstellung des Dünnfilms wurde das Spin Coating Verfahren und das Tauchzieh Verfahren untersucht. Mit dem Spin Coating Prozess konnten dichte, zusammenhängende Schichten mit wenigen Defekten und einer kontrollierbaren Schichtdicke von 50 nm bis 500 nm hergestellt werden. Das Spin Coating Verfahren wurde erfolgreich verwendet, um SiC Dünnfilme mit und ohne Stickstoff als Dotierelement zu erzeugen, welche als Grundlage für weitere Arbeiten dienen. Bonden der Folie auf polykristallinen SiC Wafer würde die Kosten bei der Herstellung von SiC leistungselektronischen Bauelementen reduzieren, wobei zudem das erstmalige Bonden der Folie auf Si Substrat demonstriert werden konnte.
description: In this work a silicon carbide (SiC) thin film on silicon (Si) bulk material, using SMP10, a liquid precursor to SiC ceramics was developed. A monocrystalline SiC foil was developed at ISAS (Technische Universität Wien) which could help to reduce cutting and polishing losses when originating from monocrystalline SiC wafers and when subsequently bonded on a Si or polycrystalline SiC wafer. For this purpose, the SiC thin film should be used as sticky layer for bonding these monocrystalline silicon carbide (SiC) foils on Si in a first attempt. The SMP10 should coat the Si surface evenly and, after pyrolysis, form a dense, coherent SiC thin film. To achieve this thin film, spin coating and dip coating were investigated. With spin coating a dense and coherent thin film, still with few defects but with controllable thickness from 50 nm to 500 nm was generated. The spin coating process was successfully used to create thin films with and without nitrogen as dopant, which can be used for electrically conductive bonding for future works. The high cost reduction would be achieved if foils are bonded to polycrystalline SiC substrates. Bonding to a Si substrate would be a predominantly of a technological advancement, rather than targeting specific applications.

description: We investigate how coupling of valence q qbar to meson pairs can modify the properties of conventional q qbar and hybrid mesons. In a symmetry limit the mixing between hybrids and conventional q qbar with the same J^PC is shown to vanish. Flavor mixing between heavy and light q qbar due to meson loops is shown to be dual to the results of gluon mediated pQCD, and qualitatively different from mixing involving light flavors alone. The validity of the OZI rule for conventional q qbar and hybrid mesons is discussed.

description: The reliability of the electrical grid depends on the availability and performance of crucial components such as power transformers. A failure in these expensive devices threatens supply energy warranty and system overhaul reliability. As transformers approach their end of life, the failure rate tends to increase and, therefore, both equipment diagnostics and working condition assessment are important to detect oncoming faults. In this work, we develop a state assessment methodology, able to evaluate power transformers health conditions. The study is about the transformer operation analysis and the associated status index calculation. This index value classifies the transformer general operation, according to the information of five partial indexes, reflecting the work conditions of most critical equipment: insulating oil and paper, winding and bushings. This contribution also presents an extensive transformer state analysis, backed up by in-service equipment.

description: We compare the measurement of the gravitational mass of 38 high-redshift galaxy clusters observed by Chandra using Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and standard Newtonian gravity. Our analysis confirms earlier findings that MOND cannot explain the difference between the baryonic mass and the total mass inferred from the assumption of hydrostatic equilibrium. We also find that the baryon fraction at $r_{2500}$ using MOND is consistent with the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) value of $Ω_{B}/Ω_{M}$

description: A few recent innovations of applicability of standard textbook Quantum Theory are reviewed. The three-Hilbert-space formulation of the theory (known from the interacting boson models in nuclear physics) is discussed in its slightly broadened four-Hilbert-space update. Among applications involving several new scattering and bound-state problems the central role is played by the models using apparently non-Hermitian ("crypto-Hermitian") Hamiltonians with real spectra. The formalism (originally inspired by the topical need of mathematically consistent description of tobogganic quantum models) is shown to admit certain unusual nonlocal and/or "moving-frame" representations of the standard physical Hilbert space of wave functions.

Rossini's reform: The controversy surrounding the use of embellishment
Creators: name: Phillips, A
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This dissertation discusses the evolution of Rossini's intricate vocal writing style. In 1824 the French biographer Stendhal provided a monologue of Rossini's reasoning behind his florid tunes. The monologue however was fictitious and may have contributed to a blurred understanding of the composer's style amongst later researchers. Twentieth-century historian Rodolfo Celletti, however, based his hypothesis about the evolution of Rossini's coloratura on comprehensive, historical research. To understand where Rossini music lies within the wavering trends in ornamentation, this dissertation presents a brief historical account of ornamentation in solo vocal music in Italy from the early Baroque to the early nineteenth century. Next, the two hypotheses of Rossini's reform are presented and discussed. The link between form and ornamentation in Rossini arias will then be presented. Finally, two Rossini arias are analysed in an effort to clearly point out the techniques that he uses in creating such elaborate vocal lines and draw conclusions to the validity of the hypotheses of Stendhal and Celletti.

description: O esforço global para a redução de emissões poluentes a que hoje assistimos, tem despoletado o estudo de alternativas e soluções para a conversão elétrica de aplicações que, outrora, eram exclusivamente associadas a máquinas térmicas e hidráulicas. O objetivo é não só reduzir as emissões associadas ao princípio de funcionamento destas máquinas, mas também fazer uso das potencialidades da variação de frequência nos motores elétricos - com vista à redução dos elementos da cadeia de transmissão (caixas de velocidades e outros equipamentos auxiliares). A procura de novas soluções, aliada às solicitações extremas a que muitas vezes estas máquinas estão sujeitas – tanto a nível do ambiente de instalação como a nível do tipo de funcionamento pretendido – provocou um impulso na necessidade e urgência de um desenvolvimento especializado de motores elétricos, em áreas que até então não tinham sido estudadas ou tinham sido pouco desenvolvidas.

Suppose that g is a realvalued Lebesgue measurable function on $\RR$ such that $g \in C^2(R K)$ for some closed subset $K \subset \RR$ with Lebesgue measure zero. Then we can construct a closed symmetric operator $D$ such that $(g(H), D)$ also obeys the weak Weyl relation.

description: Mütter von Familien mit Fluchthintergrund tragen oft eine grosse Verantwortung innerhalb der Familie. Auch bei der Integration in der Schweiz spielen sie eine wesentliche Rolle. Umso relevanter ist es, ihnen Zugang zur sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Teilhabe zu sichern. Die vorliegende Masterarbeit untersucht, wie es Müttern mit Fluchthintergrund gelingt, sich in der Schweiz zu integrieren. Da es sich um eine heterogene Gruppe handelt, sind die Herausforderungen, mit welchen die Betroffenen, nebst dem Fluchthintergrund, konfrontiert sind, divers. Dies war vor allem der Grund, weshalb der Capability Approach nach Amartya Sen als theoretische Grundlage für die empirische Studie gewählt wurde, denn Sens Ansatz überlässt die Definition dessen, was ein „gutes Leben” ausmacht, dem Individuum. Anhand von problemzentrierten Interviews wird der Frage nachgegangen, welche subjektiven Wün- sche und Vorstellungen Mütter mit Fluchthintergrund in Bezug auf ein gutes Leben in der Schweiz haben und mit welchen Herausforderungen sie konfrontiert sind. Das Erlernen der Landessprache trägt wesentlich dazu bei, Türen zu öffnen. Es besteht ein grosser Wille zur Integration, die befragten Frauen wollen sich weiterbilden und arbeiten. Fehlende Informa- tionen und ungünstige strukturelle Rahmenbedingungen führen jedoch oft zur Resignation. Neben der Kindererziehung und der Haushaltsarbeit fehlt es den Müttern oft an Energie, Zeit in sich selbst zu investieren.

Issues associated with the relationship between HR and ITS of the DSD
Creators: name: Siggins, GT
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The effective management of Human Resources (HR) and Information Technology Services (ITS) is crucial to the success of an organisation. HR and ITS are widely perceived to be two very distinct and separate entities. Consequently, they often operate autonomously and in isolation from each other. However, the common support role that both HR and ITS occupy within an organisation ensures a great deal of commonalities and overlap in the operations that they perform. Therefore, an opportunity exists for HR and ITS to enhance their operations by strengthening their relationship and working together to develop and exploit the issues that overlap the two fields. This investigation seeks to gain insight into the issues associated with the relationship between the HR and ITS units of the Department of State Development (DSD). The researcher adopted qualitative research techniques employing the interpretivist epistemology and a subjective ontology. Semi-structured face-to-face interviews were used as the principal data gathering technique, with observations being used as an additional source of information gathering. The data collected was analysed using a coding process that scrutinised and refined the data over three progressive levels of coding; open, axial and selective coding. The investigation will reveal the major issues associated with the relationship between HR and ITS of the DSD as perceived by the staff employed within those business units, ultimately culminating in the identification of two dominant issues: organisational restrictions and strategic focus. The study has the potential to act as an excellent guide to further develop recommendations that may assist the DSD to address the issues identified.

Young, female and looking to the future : exploring the aspirations of adolescent girls in regional Tasmania
Creators: name: Hawkins, CL
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This research explores the aspirations of adolescent girls living in rural and remote areas of the Cradle Coast region of Tasmania. Based on ethnographic interviews and life history portraits, the thesis demonstrates that rural girls have multiple aspirations for school, work, parenthood, relationships, travel and lifestyle, as well as affective aspirations such as those for happiness, success, independence and balance. This thesis demonstrates how these aspirations, and the capacity to fulfil them, are shaped by the girls' cultural worlds. The study is part of an emerging body of work that recognises the importance of culture in understanding adolescent aspirations. It generates new conclusions about how and why culture matters by exploring the impact of the socio-cultural context on a broader range of adolescent aspirations than most other existing studies. Few existing studies take a culturally contextualised approach to exploring various aspirations in connection with one another. There are even fewer studies that do so with an adolescent, rural, female cohort. Through taking an ethnographic approach, this research is able to show how many cultural factors are interwoven with other factors and how this impacts on adolescent life aspirations and the associated educational and career decision-making. In doing so, this study contributes new insights into how culture and 'cultural capacities' create educational, social and/or rural disadvantage. For example, it highlights how aspects of culture such as community and family traditions, expectations, norms and values shape 'capacity' and how this may then influence participation in higher education and educational outcomes. These insights are particularly relevant for policy makers concerned with how to widen participation in higher education and how to address access barriers to education, particularly for disadvantaged groups. The findings from this study are also relevant for education providers and practitioners in terms of engaging adolescents who are traditionally under-represented in education, including those from rural and regional locations. The study uses detailed life history portraits and thematic analysis of rural girls' shared aspirations and influences to illustrate how and why culture matters. These portraits are constructed from personal stories collected during in-depth interviews and they include in-context cultural descriptions and the girls' own thoughts and feelings regarding their many aspirations. The thematic analysis of the personal stories collected provides for additional understanding of the impact of the socio-cultural context by identifying the girls' shared aspirations and influences. Largely through its approach, this study generates new conclusions about how the aspirations of rural adolescent girls are culturally constructed and how this impacts on school and work decision-making.

description: We present observations of the afterglow of GRB 080319B at optical, mm and radio frequencies from a few hours to 67 days after the burst. Present observations along with other published multi-wavelength data have been used to study the light-curves and spectral energy distributions of the burst afterglow. The nature of this brightest cosmic explosion has been explored based on the observed properties and it's comparison with the afterglow models. Our results show that the observed features of the afterglow fits equally good with the Inter Stellar Matter and the Stellar Wind density profiles of the circum-burst medium. In case of both density profiles, location of the maximum synchrotron frequency $ν_m$ is below optical and the value of cooling break frequency $ν_c$ is below $X-$rays, $\sim 10^{4}$s after the burst. Also, the derived value of the Lorentz factor at the time of naked eye brightness is $\sim 300$ with the corresponding blast wave size of $\sim 10^{18}$ cm. The numerical fit to the multi-wavelength afterglow data constraints the values of physical parameters and the emission mechanism of the burst.

description: A new method is presented for Fourier decomposition of the Helmholtz Green Function in cylindrical coordinates, which is equivalent to obtaining the solution of the Helmholtz equation for a general ring source. The Fourier coefficients of the Helmholtz Green function are split into their half advanced+half retarded and half advanced-half retarded components. Closed form solutions are given for these components in terms of a Horn function and a Kampe de Feriet function, respectively. The systems of partial differential equations associated with these two-dimensional hypergeometric functions are used to construct a fourth-order ordinary differential equation which both components satisfy. A second fourth-order ordinary differential equation for the general Fourier coefficent is derived from an integral representation of the coefficient, and both differential equations are shown to be equivalent. Series solutions for the various Fourier coefficients are also given, mostly in terms of Legendre functions and Bessel/Hankel functions. These are derived from the closed form hypergeometric solutions or an integral representation, or both. Numerical calculations comparing different methods of calculating the Fourier coefficients are presented.

description: We have synthesized a quaternary fluoroarsenide SrFeAsF with the ZrCuSiAs-type structure (P4/nmm, a = 0.3999 and c = 0.8973 nm), which is composed of an alternately stacked (FeAs)- and (SrF)+ layers, analogous to the FeAs-based superconductor LaFeAsO. SrFeAsF shows metallic type conduction with the anomaly at ~180 K. The partial replacement of the Fe with Co suppresses the anomaly and induces the superconductivity, while the maximal Tc (4 K for SrFe0.875Co0.125AsF) is much lower than that of the Co-substituted LaFeAsO. Replacement of (LaO)+ layers with (SrF)+ layers results in a enlargement of the c-axis length (+2.6%). These results suggest the importance of interlayer interaction as a critical Tc-controlling factor in FeAs-based superconductors.

description: The impetus of this honours project stemmed from my own experiences as a pre-service teacher. During my practicum placement, I observed a male colleague teacher interacting differently with boys and girls. Research from Fisher (2014) Leder and Forgasz (2010) and Skelton et al., (2009) suggests that differentiated practices can influence teacher expectations, which may be detrimental to student development if left unrecognised. This led to my research project to understand the ways, if at all, classroom teachers differentiate their practice as a result of students' gender. I employed qualitative case study research methodology with methods including interviews, observations and field notes. The findings revealed that three teachers, from varying contexts, were more likely to respond to students' personality than their gender. This indicated a strong link between teacher classroom practice and influential school philosophies. These findings and add to the current literature of gender differentiated practices in the Australian context and how school policies influence teachers' pedagogy.
Gastown : past, present and future

description: The old Vancouver townsite offers the community planner an excellent study area in which to observe the cyclical nature of urban development. As well as being able to define the rise and fall of particular uses, the planner is able to identify criteria which dictate these trends. The hypothesis or point of departure for this study was that, traditionally, economic values have been the prime determinants in setting the physical form of the urban environs. As this Gastown study indicates, this indeed has been the case, and, in fact, is continuing in the present restoration project. The conclusion of the thesis is that a much wider and more diverse perspective is needed in order to preserve the great variety of interests in the old townsite. Towards this end, a development programme has been suggested which would include inputs from all the groups or individuals in the community. The first chapter outlines the history of the Gastown area. Growth patterns and development modes are traced from 1880 until the present day. A number of factors have been identified which affected the townsite's early growth, these include the geographical location of the settlement and the nature of its early industry, as well as the decision to locate the western terminus of the CPR in Vancouver, and the Great Fire of 1886. The city of Vancouver, from its incorporation in I89O, through to the present day, has continued to expand and diversify. As the population increased, the business district shifted to areas which were in closer proximity to the major markets. Once the townsite lost its importance as the central business district, it entered a period of transition. Various service oriented industries began to dominate Vancouver's once fashionable 'downtown area'. Gradually, the old townsite declined, buildings deteriorated and were vacated. During the depression years, the unemployed workers flocked to the coast and sought out this area because of its low rents and plentiful accomodation. From this time on, Vancouver's birthplace existed as a 'skid-road' - a community of pensioners, transients, and vagrants. In the past three years, much attention has focused on the old townsite. The experiences of other cities with the restoration of historic areas has found form for its manifestation in the Gastown district. The problems and opportunities which the restoration project has encountered are outlined in the second chapter. The impact of the rapid redevelopment was felt first by the residents of the area -as some rooming-houses were closed, and rents in others increased, they were forced to leave the neighbourhood.

description: We introduce a new representation of the paths of the Forrester-Baxter RSOS models which represents the states of the irreducible modules of the minimal models M(p',p). This representation is obtained by transforming the RSOS paths, for the cases p> 2p'-2, to new paths for which horizontal edges are allowed at certain heights. These new paths are much simpler in that their weight is nothing but the sum of the position of the peaks. This description paves the way for the interpretation of the RSOS paths in terms of fermi-type charged particles out of which the fermionic characters could be obtained constructively. The derivation of the fermionic character for p'=2 and p=kp'+/- 1 is outlined. Finally, the particles of the RSOS paths are put in relation with the kinks and the breathers of the restricted sine-Gordon model.

description: Bioactive components used to treat human ailments are abundant in medicinal plants. Mentha arvensis and Aegle marmelos have therapeutic properties due to the presence of many phytonutrients. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to evaluate the properties of the antioxidant and anticancer bioactive components found in the ethanolic extracts of Mentha arvensis and Aegle marmelos leaves. The major constituents identified in the leaf extracts were octadecanoic acid, heptadecanoic acid, 15-methyl-9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester, hexadecanoic acid, neophytadiene, pentadecane, hexadecane, and 1-octadecanol. Some of these components have antibacterial, antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. Among the identified compounds, octadecanoic acid and n-hexadecanoic acid are pivotal for their anticancer and antioxidant effects. The GC–MS characterisation indicated the existence of abundant bioactive compounds, confirming their potential therapeutic activities. This study showed that the leaves of Mentha arvensis and Aegle marmelos could be used as novel sources of antioxidants and anticancer medicines.

description: Basing on the density functional theory of fermion condensation, we analyze the non-Fermi liquid behavior of strongly correlated Fermi-systems such as heavy-fermion metals. When deriving equations for the effective mass of quasiparticles, we consider solids with a lattice and homogeneous systems. We show that the low-temperature thermodynamic and transport properties are formed by quasiparticles, while the dependence of the effective mass on temperature, number density, magnetic fields, etc gives rise to the non-Fermi liquid behavior. Our theoretical study of the heat capacity, magnetization, energy scales, the longitudinal magnetoresistance and magnetic entropy are in good agreement with the remarkable recent facts collected on the heavy-fermion metal YbRh2Si2.

Design Arbitrary Shaped 2D Acoustic Cloak without Singularity

description: A method is proposed to design arbitrary shaped two dimensional (2D) isotropic-inertia acoustic cloaks without singularity. The method is based on the deformation view of the transformation method, where the transformation tensor A is identified as the deformation gradient tensor and the transformed material parameters can be expressed by the principal stretches in the principal system of the deformation. The infinite material parameters of a perfect 2D cloak is induced by an infinite principal stretch in one direction while the other two remains finite at the inner boundary during the transformation. To circumvent this difficulty, for a 2D cloak we can choose the principal stretch perpendicular to the cloak plane to be also infinite but in the same order as the infinite principal stretch in the cloak plane during the transformation, so the transformed material parameters may keep finite. To illustrate this idea, the analytical expressions of nonsingular material parameters for a cylindrical acoustic cloak are given. For the acoustic cloaks with irregular shapes, the numerical method is proposed to evaluate the principal stretches and in turn the nonsingular material parameters. The designed 2D cloaks are validated by numerical simulation.

The role of the cotyledon on the flowering behaviour of Pisum Sativum : a physiological study.

description: This thesis doesn't have an abstract. Included here is the first 2 paragraphs of chapter 1 (genetics and physiology). Genetics The present knowledge concerning the genetic control of flowering in peas has recently been reviewed by Murfet (1971a). Rowlands (1964), who used as his criterion FT (the number of days between sowing of the seed and opening of the first flower) and Barber (1959), who recorded the flowering response in terms of NF (the node at which the first flower is initiated), both concluded that flowering was fundamentally under the control of one major gene,.dominant for late flowering. Barber used the symbol Sn, first proposed by Tedin and Tedin (1923), to designate this gene. The effect of Sn is increased under S.D. (short day) conditions, and subject to modification by a system of polygenes. Barber also suggested a second polygene system working outside the orbit of the Sn gene. More recently, Wellensiek (1969) has suggested the presence of a multiple allelic gene system controlling flowering behaviour in peas, with alleles for late, intermediate and early flowering such that each later gene is incompletely dominant over the earlier one. Physiology TECHNIQUES AND ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES With regard to the physiological approach towards flowering in peas, the two most common variables used have been photoperiod and vernalization. In addition, the two techniques of cotyledon removal and grafting have been commonly employed. These environmental variables and techniques are explained in greater, detail in the following chapter. 1.3
Schicksalsschlag Tod – der einsame Kampf verwitweter Eltern mit minderjährigen Kindern? Eine qualitativ-empirische Untersuchung zu Herausforderungen und Problemen von Verwitweten mit minderjährigen Kindern in der Schweiz

description: Die vorliegende Master-Thesis setzt sich mit den Herausforderungen und Problemen von Verwitweten mit minderjährigen Kindern in der Schweiz auseinander. Ebenfalls soll sie aufzeigen, ob es sich bei den Themen Tod und Trauer um Tabuthemen handelt und ob dies von Betroffenen wahrgenommen wird. In einem explorativen Vorgehen wird untersucht, mit welchen Herausforderungen und Problemen Verwitwete mit minderjährigen in der Schweiz konfrontiert werden und wo die Soziale Arbeit ansetzen kann. Ein besonderes Augenmerkt liegt dabei auf dem individuellen Erleben, Empfinden und dem Umgang mit dem Tod der Partnerin oder des Partners der befragten Personen. Aus diesem Grund wurden mit vier betroffenen Personen leitfadengestützte Interviews geführt und anschliessend in Anlehnung an Philipp Mayring inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet. Die Auswertung der erhobenen Daten zeigte, dass die Herausforderungen und Probleme für Verwitwete mit minderjährigen Kindern vielfältig auftreten und sich bei den befragten Personen in etwa gleich zeigen. Es konnte zudem die Schlussfolgerung aufgestellt werden, dass die Themen Tod, Trauer aber auch Sterben von der Gesellschaft tabuisiert werden und ihr Umgang mit diesen Themen von den Betroffenen als schwierig wahrgenommen wird.
