This thesis presents a comprehensive systems analysis of the impact of quality assessments, communication practices, and monitoring mechanisms on the efficiency of public procure-ment in the Swedish construction sector. Recognizing that public procurement is a corner-stone for societal infrastructure and development, the study specifically examines procure-ment regulated by the Swedish Public Proc

Plant-based ice cream and whipping cream are increasingly popular as sustainable alternatives to traditional dairy products. Their low fat content makes them much healthier than high-fat dairy products. However, achieving desirable texture and stability in plant-based desserts remains a challenge. This study investigated how different processing conditions (homogenization pressure, upstream/downst

Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka hur individer ställer sig till yttrandefrihet respektive reglering, beroende på experimentell manipulation genom vinjetter, kön samt ideologisk tillhörighet. Det förväntades att deltagarna som tar del av vinjetten om reglering uppfattar fördomsfulla yttranden som mer allvarliga och i större behov av reglering, jämfört med de som tar del av vinjettenThis study aimed to investigate how individuals position themselves regarding freedom of speech versus regulation, depending on experimental manipulation through vignettes, gender and ideological affiliation. Participants shown the regulation vignette were hypothesised to view prejudiced statements as more severe and needing more regulation than those shown a freedom of speech vignette or the cont

Bakgrund: Aktivitetsbalans är viktigt för hälsan. Rapporter slår larm om ökad ohälsa bland studenter vid svenska universitet. Höga krav på prestation, lågt inflytande över studiesituationen, hög studiebörda och ansträngd ekonomi påverkade studenters hälsa negativt och skapade aktivitetsobalans. Inom Arbetsterapeututbildningen finns ett brett innehåll i kurserna kring aktivitetsbalans. Författarna Background: Occupational balance is important for health. Alarming reports indicates an increase of ill health among students at Swedish universities. High demands on performance, low influence over the study situation, high study load and strained finances, negatively affected students’ health and created occupational imbalance. Within Occupational Therapy education, there is a wide range of cont

Background: The Case Company is in the process of implementing a new inventory control policy for their spare parts distribution, from a single-echelon inventory control policy, specifically what is called an (R, Q) policy, to a multiechelon inventory control policy called Distribution Requirements Planning. It is of interest to see how this new policy will perform, and the effect this change has

This thesis aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of compassion fatigue among social workers within the social services, with those who are working in the child and family unit. The study focused on exploring how social workers experienced compassion fatigue in their professional roles and what factors contributed to these experiences. A qualitative method was used, and data were

Infrastruktursektorn är beroende av detaljerad information om markförhållanden för att säkerställa en miljömässig och socialt hållbar utveckling. Nuvarande hydrogeologiska metoder, såsom invasiv borrning, är ofta kostsamma, tidskrävande och begränsade i geografisk täckning av ett undersökningsområde. Direktströms resistivitet och tidsdomän-inducerad polarisering (DCIP) erbjuder ett icke-invasivt, The infrastructure sector relies on detailed subsurface data for environmentally and socially responsible development. Traditional hydrogeological methods, like invasive drilling, are costly, time-consuming, and limited in spatial coverage. Direct Current resistivity and time-domain Induced Polarization (DCIP) offer a non-invasive, cost-effective and spatially extensive alternative for estimating

As the media landscape is undergoing significant changes and becoming increasingly polarized, much due to the rise of social media, it creates complexities as well as opportunities for marketers to create consumer brand engagement. Within the field of entertainment this becomes particularly important as engaged consumers are fundamental for brands to succeed. Thus, the purpose of this study is to

Foundation and Purpose: This research paper explores identity and sensemaking in the context of organizational change. The theoretical basis is anchored in the context of NPOs, studying the particular case of a trade union in Northern Europe embracing digital transformation. The study of this phenomenon is relevant as it explores a trade union’s efforts to remain current and to continue as a purpo

The present study aims to investigate whether there is a relationship between exposure to content on the social media platform TikTok and young people’s attitudes towards people with disabilities. A quantitative study was conducted with 83 participants aged 15 to 25. Respondents estimated their exposure to positive and negative content about disability and their attitudes using the Attitudes Towar

Misleading health information remains a central concern in medical sociology and public health due to its harmful effects on individuals and society. As health information-seeking increasingly shifts to digital platforms, Large Language Models (LLMs)—now commonly used as search engines—have intensified concerns about the spread of health misinformation. This study examines the potential for LLMs t

Vombsänkan är en av Sveriges största grundvattenförekomster, den sträcker sig från utkanten av Lunds kommun i norr till kusträckan längs med Ystad kommun i söder. Med anledning av att grundvattentillgången är god i Vombsänkan, utgör detta magasin en samhällsviktig resurs i syfte att förse stora delar av Skånes befolkning med dricksvatten. Grundvattnet förser även jordbrukare med bevattningsmöjlighVombsänkan is one of the largest groundwater aquifers in Sweden, it can be divided into a southeastern part with a limestone aquifer and a northwestern part with an aquifer in soil. The limestone aquifer is confined, since it’s overlain by low-permeability soils. All wells for irrigation and municipal purposes are drilled into the limestone rock. The goal is to establish a hydraulic groundwater mo

The purpose of the study is to investigate how newspaper articles present the agency of young people placed in SIS in text and what this may mean for the perceptions that are created about young people who are in community care. The analysis is conducted as a critical discourse analysis that analyzes articles in the newspaper Aftonbladet, where the theory and method are inspired by the linguist No

A setup using two of the novel COMPEX composite Ge-detectors was assessed for its sensitivity for γ-ray polarisation studies. Two slightly different configurations were considered with angles of 90° and 180° between COMPEX 2 and COMPEX 3, using a standard calibration 60Co source. Measurements were performed with the two detectors in coincidence mode, and the resulting signals were digitised using

Denna studie undersöker hur arbetsmetoder anpassas inom AI-projekt, särskilt när dessa bygger på generativ AI. Genom kvalitativa intervjuer med fem utvecklare och projektledare inom olika organisationer analyseras hur man hanterar osäkerhet, experimentellt arbete och snabba iterat-ioner inom AI-projekt. Resultaten visar att team ofta tillämpar en selektiv och flexibel version av agila ramverk som

As private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) firms have become more active in taking companies public, questions around the credibility of these sponsors and their effect on post-IPO performance have grown in relevance. This study explores how different types of financial sponsors and their associated credibility influence stock returns following initial public offerings (IPOs). Using a sample

This thesis explores the integration of generative AI in IT consultancy, focusing on how consultants and managers perceive its strategic and practical implications in project management. Using a dual-method approach, the study combines semi-structured interviews with AI-driven case experiments to investigate both human perspectives and AI performance. Findings reveal that generative AI is valued f
