Tidigare forskning tyder på att musik har en stor betydelse för hur människor reglerar sina känslor och det är därför värt att undersöka detta vidare. Den aktuella studien syftar till att undersöka om det finns samband mellan personlighet och hur man lyssnar på musik för att reglera sina känslor. Tidigare forskning har funnit stöd för att det finns samband mellan personlighet och känslor i allmänhPrevious research has indicated that music is of great importance for how people regulate their emotions and it’s therefore worth exploring further. The current study aims to examine if there are connections between personality and how people use music to regulate their emotions. Previous research has found support for connections between personality and emotions in general but it’s not certain th

This bachelor thesis explores how and why people choose to interact with commercial messages from the Swedish brand Oatly on Facebook. Questions about people’s encounters with commercial messages on social media are often closely linked to perceptions about exploitation and free labor. This research uses the method of four qualitative interviews to explore who benefits from these actions and does

Valutamarknaden är den största finansiella marknaden där cirka USD 5tn omsätts varje dag. Många aktörer inom finansvärlden har börjat bygga sofistikerade algoritmer för att försöka få en positiv avkastning i automatiserad valutahandel. I det här examensarbetet så undersöks Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) för maskininlärning. Fördelen med GPR är att det är en icke-parametrisk metod, vilket innebäMachine learning and its application within finance have gained popularity the last decade.

Teknologiutvecklingen inom halvledarindustrin och integrerade krestsar har inom de senaste åren skett i en mycket hög takt, vilket också har medfört en förbättring av transistornas prestanda. Transistorn är grundläggande biståndsdel i elektroniska kretsar med huvudsaklig uppgift att styra strömmar och fungerar på så sätt som ett elektriskt relä. Transistorn består av tre elektroder, som kallas souDownscaling of Si-based metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) has contributed to increased microchip device density and to improve the functionality of the electronic circuits. The dimensions of state of art MOSFET is down to a few nanometers. It has been demonstrated that smaller MOSFETs are faster and more energy-efficient. However, with continued device scaling the perfor

Införandet av den nya dataskyddsreformen innebär en rad nya, stärkta rättigheter för gemene man. Stärkta rättigheter kan leda till ökad kontroll, om man är medveten om att dessa finns. Vikten av att ha kontroll över sina personuppgifter blir, i takt med att behandlingen av dessa ökar, större. I takt med att företags behandling ökar blir personuppgifter allt mer värdefulla och kallas numera för fra

The purpose of this study was to describe how life changes in psychotherapists’ own lives have affected their work. The topic was explored with a qualitative approach. The method was reflecting conversation. The result mainly illustrated how psychotherapists’ life changes and crises had affected them personally, rather than professionally. The psychotherapists mainly shared how life changes had le

From originally being used for software development, there is an increased use of agile methodologies in other areas as well. This leads to a need for further studies on the implementation of agile methodologies. The aim of this thesis is to study newly formed agile teams and their member’s perceptions of job satisfaction and examine if there are any relationships between the use of agile practice

Under många år av studier inom musik har jag som sångare upplevt att jag sällan får samma konkreta feedback som andra instrumentalister i ensemblesammanhang. Många sångare med liknande erfarenheter verkar ha upplevt samma sak. Flera studiekamrater vid Musikhögskolans lärarutbildning anser även att det finns en utbredd problematik i bristen på undervisning i hur man som framtida lärare bör ge feedbDuring my many years of music studies, I – as a singer – have rarely felt as though I receive the concrete feedback other instrumentalists get in the context of an ensemble class. Many singers with a similar background as myself seem to have experienced the same thing. Several peers at the Teacher’s Programme of Malmö Academy of Music also consider it problematic that there’s a lack in training re

Recent studies focusing on the analysis of emissions embodied in trade have shown that high-income countries are increasingly becoming net importers of emissions. This is commonly explained by the economies’ changing trade specialization in heavy and light industrial goods. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and compare the trade specialization patterns of twelve Anglophone and Nordic co

This thesis aims at defining the improvement areas for packaging and logistics of a long shelf-life Danone Nutricia aseptic product. By literature research and interview, the author is able to build a product mapping protocol to define the sensitive components requiring particular concerns on packaging and logistics. This protocol could be implemented in both academic researches and industry proje

Om du skulle gissa på hur många komponenter det finns i din mobiltelefon, vad hade du gissat på då? 10? 100? 1 000 000? Skulle du tro mig om jag säger att svaret är runt 200 miljarder? För det är faktiskt så. I din telefon och i all elektronisk utrustning runt omkring dig finns miljontals små elektroniska byggdelar som gör vårt tekniska samhälle möjligt. Snabba, smarta och kraftfulla datorer och mThe silicon MOSFET is one of the most important components used in modern electronics. The pursuit to continue fulfilling Moore’s law by scaling transistors to even smaller sizes have driven the development forward for CMOS technologies and new approaches have been necessary. These include changing the geometry of the devices for even higher performance, like creating 3D structures (finFETs or tri

Socioeconomic status (SES) and its effect on health outcomes for an individual is generally well researched, but the different mechanisms of different socioeconomic factors are yet still not fully understood. Using cross-sectional survey data for 50+ people in Estonia this thesis aims to analyse the multidimensional nature of different SES variables to see if the SES variables have an independent

Cassava, Manihot esculenta, is the third most important staple crop in tropical re- gions. Cassava is a fibrous root that is tolerant to drought and has a flexible harvest period making it a reliable crop under poorer farming conditions (FAO, 2008). The content of provitamin A, also known as β-carotene, is unfortunately low in cassava even though there are varieties bred for a higher content. Sinc

Baker´s yeast S. cerevisiae has been engineered in order to enable xylose uptake and utilization from lignocellulosic biomass as this yeast cannot naturally metabolize this pentose sugar. However, xylose is not recognized as a fermentable sugar by S. cerevisiae and recent studies on the effect of xylose on the three main sugar signaling pathways (Snf3p/Rgt2p, SNF1/Mig1pt and cAMP/PKA) have indicat

Large particle accelerators are difficult to setup. One of the first problems that can be encountered, before production configuration is found, is the beam not passing through the accelerator. The process of guiding the beam through the accelerator is called beam threading. Depending on the accelerator complexity it can take days before the beam passes for the first time. Currently the beam thre
