Abstract: The food consumption of today’s world has led to an overconsumption of the earth resources. It is easy to forget that when we consume we do not only consume a product we are also consuming other peoples labour and landscapes in, many times, far off places. With daily news on environmental damages, people are becoming more aware. Consequently, people are getting more interested in the ori

Barn är ofta rädda när de kommer in i sjukvården och det ställs höga krav på sjuksköterskor för att kommunicera med barn som behandlas akut. Syftet med studien var att beskriva mötet mellan sjuksköterskan och barnet inom akutsjukvården samt att utvärdera huruvida någonting kan förbättras. Studien genomfördes med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer med sju sjuksköterskor och intervjufrågorna berö

The aim of this thesis is to describe the conditions in which the internally displaced persons of Soacha, Colombia, live and how these affect their possibilities of obtaining a sustainable livelihood. This is a qualitative study and the material was mainly gathered using semi-structured interviews on-site in the poverty-stricken neighborhoods of El Oasis and Los Robles in Cazucá, Soacha. Interv

As previous research on content-specificity of the neural correlates of recollection is inconclusive, event-related potentials were used to assess old/new effects for faces, objects and words. The data demonstrate temporal differences in ERP old/new effects as a function of item type, supporting the notion that material-dependent processes underlie recollection-related neural activity. The results

This project is ultimately a result of making a mental note of something missing from the marketplace, and a longing to meet that need by way of caring, skilled craftsmanship. Perhaps more importantly than just being a product opportunity in an otherwise predictable segment, it has been both an exercise in exploring a trade and designing a product to outlive its user.

In order to build an efficient transportation system of the future, public transport needs to be an attractive alternative offering a high quality travel experience. Future digital information systems for public buses will enrich the travelers experience by delivering relevant content - accurately on the right time and place. In this master thesis, design and implementation of an improved bus posi

Event is as a transcendent happening that is inventing in the existence in a revealing manner. It is breaking the continuity and opens up for something else. It has to be seen as an ethical call, a summons, an answer to or expression for a messianic promise that is inherent in existence. Event is one of Derrida's key terms. The expressive concepts, event, “coming of the other”, promise, ju

The purpose of this paper is, with the help of the historical simulation and bootstrapping methods, to establish the optimal periods for Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall forecasts. Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall are two well-used risk measures in finance which tell us how much we can expect to lose on a particular investment with a certain probability over a specific period of time. The

Title: Is the Honeymoon Over For Instagram? - A qualitative study on how Generation Y reasons about brand marketing strategies Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how Instagram-users from Generation Y reason about various forms of marketing on Instagram, in order to contribute with a deeper understanding on how they view brand strategies to reach them as consumers. Theoretical

To investigate the reasons why companies engage in Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR, this study conducts a survey with 47 companies and interviews with 7 company representatives in the UK. This empirical data and results are analysed in terms of theoretical ideas of CSR and economics. Board of Directors or top management, Attract employees, Reputation, Moral, and Economic reasons are, as in th

Uppsatsen är en kortsiktig eventstudie, där skillnaden i den abnormala avkastningen kring annonseringen av en nyemission bland tre grupper av bolag, indelade utifrån bakomliggande motiv för nyemissionen, studeras. Uppföljning av graden av motivuppfyllnad sker genom en studie av bolagens förändringar av poster i bokslutet. Den underliggande teorin utgår från tidigare studier kring nyemissioners aktThe aim of this study is to investigate, determine and thus create a deeper understanding regarding the stock market reaction to the announcement of a seasoned equity offering on short term. Furthermore is the intention to investigate if there are any differences in the reaction depending on the intended use of proceeds and to which degree the firms fulfill those intentions. The thesis is an even

Den här uppsatsen undersöker kopplingen mellan resursanvändning och ekonomisk tillväxt. Den ekonomiska tillväxten innebär användning av naturresurser som medför ökade avfallsmängder och negativ påverkan på människor och miljö. Avfall är den mest synliga och skadliga biprodukten av en resursintensiv, konsumtionsbaserad livsstil som driver många av världens ekonomier. För att skapa en långsiktig hål

This thesis will examine the discourse of peak oil understood from a post-political perspective and challenge the un-reflexive assumption of peak oil as a natural challenger to current hegemony. It will do so by constructing a theoretical framework for ‘politics proper’ through which the peak oil discourse will be assessed. The conclusion is that while peak oil offer the potential of a serious rup

This thesis presents the work I did for the inclusive search for anomalous production of same charge lepton-pairs, originating from the collision point, at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using the 2012 data. I optimized the selection criteria for isolated electrons and muons, calculated the so-called "fake factors" and "fake factor" systematic uncertainties

In a market with homogeneous products and no barriers to trade, arbitrage, in the form of parallel imports of pharmaceuticals, is expected to lead to a price convergence in the market as a whole, preferably downwards, as an effect of competitive behavior between the parallel trader and the pharmaceutical producer. Such an effect on prices have however only sparsely been shown in previous research,

Tidigare forskning har påvisat att föräldrar ibland upplever att sjuksköterskor inom barnhälsovården (BHV) har för lite kunskap om för tidigt födda barn och vad det innebär att få ett för tidigt fött barn. Drygt 6 % av alla barn i Sverige föds före graviditetsvecka 38. Studiens syfte var att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att möta familjer med för tidigt födda barn inom barnhälsovården. I
