I takt med att chatbottar blir allt vanligare inom digital kommunikation blir det avgörande att förstå hur deras kommunikationsstil påverkar användarupplevelsen. Denna studie undersöker hur olika kommunikationsstilar, formell, vardaglig, och opromptad, påverkar användarnas uppfattning om mänsklighet och förtroende för AI-genererade chatbottsvar. Med en within-participants undersökningsdesign fick As chatbots become increasingly prevalent in digital communication, understanding how their communication style affects user experience is critical. This study investigates how different communication styles, formal, casual, and unprompted, affect users’ perceptions of humanness and trust in AI-generated chatbot responses. Using a within-participants survey design, 42 participants rated 30 AI-gene

I detta examensarbete testades och jämfördes olika instuderingsmetoder under en begränsad period. Syftet var att hitta nya verktyg samt öka förståelsen för de faktorer som leder till effektiv inlärning. Förhoppningen var att minska frustration. Teknikerna som provades var slowing, chunking och separation och musiken som studerades var tre satser ur Galliards Sonater 1–3. För att lättare bedömaIn this thesis, different study techniques were tested over a limited period of time. The purpose was both to find new tools and to increase the knowledge of the different factors involved in effective learning, with the goal of diminishing practice frustration. Three techniques were used; slowing, chunking and separation. The music selected was three movements from Galliard’s Sonata 1-3. In o

The Philippines is highly vulnerable to natural disasters, particularly flooding due to extreme climatic events, therefore efforts in reducing and managing associated risks are crucial. A case study for a flooding risk assessment based in Region III, Central Luzon was conducted through an exposure, damage, and risk analysis of economic and social factors for three different return periods with the

This thesis investigates how the concept of naturdannelse, a nature-oriented Bildung process can be realised through udeskole, curriculum-based teaching outside the classroom, in primary school Language and Science education. Through a qualitative, practice-based intervention co-developed with two teachers, the study explores how five pathways to naturdannelse; experiential, emotional, cognitive,

This thesis explores the feasibility of using regenerative spectral hole burning (SHB) in cryogenically cooled Tm³⁺:LaF₃ crystals as a laser frequency reference for Ultrasound Optical Tomography (UOT) systems. UOT is an imaging technique that combines the deep penetration of ultrasound with the high contrast of near-infrared light, offering significant potential for biomedical imaging. A major cha

As global industries face increasing pressure to adopt circular economy principles and comply with sustainability regulations, packaging has emerged as an important strategic driver. This thesis explores the case of a global industrial manufacturer and how it can enhance its packaging innovation capabilities and align with upcoming regulatory frameworks, such as the Corporate Sustainability Re

This thesis focuses on the experiences of Christian women in the Netherlands regarding their religion, faith and daily lives – especially within the (envisioned) family. Through Bible study discussions and individual interviews, 11 women shared how they navigated the traditional systems at work within each of these spheres, how they negotiated their own understandings of each and how they would ch

The rise of deepfake pornography in South Korea reflects a serious breakdown in the protection of human rights in digital spaces. In a society where technological development significantly shapes national identity, the rights to bodily autonomy, education, and freedom from inhumane treatment are increasingly compromised by systems that normalize gender-based violence. Deepfake abuse in South Korea

When acidification of soils and lakes got acknowledged in the 1960’s, it soon became one of the biggest environmental issues in northern Europe. Long-range transport of sulphur and nitrogen emissions caused acid rain to fall thousands of kilometers away from its source. South-western Sweden was one of the areas most affected by acidification. One of the lakes affected is Lake Gårdsjön, situated ab

Detta examensarbete undersöker hur de uppdaterade kriterierna i certifieringssystemet Miljöbyggnad påverkar hållbarhetsmålen inom bygg- och fastighetssektorn. Arbetet utgår från den centrala problematiken att byggsektorn är en av de största källorna till utsläpp och negativ miljöpåverkan. Miljöcertifieringssystem har potentialen att minska den negativa miljöpåverkan inom bygg- och fastighetssektorThis thesis examines how the updated criteria in the Miljöbyggnad certification system affect sustainability goals in the construction and real estate sector. The work is based on that the construction sector is one of the largest sources of emissions and negative environmental impact. Environmental assessment methods have the potential to reduce the negative environmental impact of the constructi

Additiv tillverkning (AM), vanligtvis kallad 3D-utskrift, erkänns som en transformativ metod inom modern tillverkning. Tekniken möjliggör framställning av komplexa geometrier med ökad materialeffektivitet, lokaliserad produktion och större designfrihet. Trots dessa fördelar kvarstår utmaningar när det gäller att optimera AM-processer för att säkerställa resurseffektivitet – särskilt i att minska mAdditive Manufacturing (AM), commonly referred to as 3D printing, has known as a transformative approach in modern manufacturing. It enables the production of complex geometries with reduced material usage, localized fabrication, and improved design flexibility. Despite these advantages, challenges remain in optimizing AM processes to ensure resource efficiency, particularly in minimizing material

To reduce reliance on energy-intensive, chemically synthesised nitrogen sources in microbial cultivation, we investigated the integration of the nitrogen-fixing bacterium Azotobacter vinelandii into a bioconversion process with the recombinant yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our objective was to develop a more sustainable approach by utilising biological nitrogen fixation to supply ammonium direct

This thesis explores the potential of soundscape-based urban design to activate and regenerate Norra Grängesbergsgatan (NGBG), a post-industrial corridor in Malmö, Sweden. Rather than treating sound as a byproduct of urban life, the project positions it as a primary design medium one that can shape spatial experiences, encourage social interaction, and support cultural identity. The design introdu

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), atmospheric methane (CH4) concentrations are considered a crucial factor in global warming, particularly in the near term, due to its high warming potential (~ 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide, or CO2) and shorter atmospheric lifetime compared to CO2. CH4 emissions have more than doubled since the industrial revolution and

Denna kandidatuppsats beskriver utvecklingen av en bättre modell för att uppskatta den elektriska styrenhetens, (Electrical Control Unit), ECU-strömmen, i ett Gen VI ställdon, vilket används i moderna fyrhjulsdrivna fordon. Projektet genomfördes i samarbete med BorgWarner och är baserat på laboratorietester och elektriska simuleringar. Målet med modellen är att förbättra hur exakt ECU-strömmen uppThis bachelor's thesis describes the development of a better model to estimate the Electrical Control Unit, ECU current in a Gen VI actuator, which is used in modern all-wheel-drive vehicles. The project was done in collaboration with BorgWarner and is based on lab tests and electrical simulations. The goal of the model is to improve how accurately the ECU current is estimated. This is importa

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka effekterna av flotation-REST (Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy, en sensoriskt reducerad avslappningsmetod) jämfört med passiv vila med lugnande musik på den subjektiva upplevelsen av fysisk ansträngning, mätt direkt efter högintensiv fysisk aktivitet. Fyrtiofyra deltagare (18 idrottare och 26 icke-idrottare) genomgick båda återhämtningsmetodernThis study aimed to examine the effects of flotation-REST (Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy) as sensory-reduced relaxation method in comparison to passive rest with relaxing music, on the subjective experience of perceived physical exertion measured immediately after high-intensity exercise. Forty-four participants (18 athletes and 26 non-athletes) experienced both recovery methods in
