Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur en hållbarhetsmärkning av kläder i en e-handelskontext påverkar ett företags varumärkeskapital. Metod: Studien utgick från en kvantitativ ansats där tre av Aakers (1991) fem dimensioner av kundbaserat varumärkeskapital operationaliserades. I en enkät fördelades respondenterna in i tre grupper som mötte olika stimuli och fick ta ställning till sPurpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how a sustainability label on clothing in an e-commerce context affects a company's brand equity. Methodology: The study was based on a quantitative approach where three of Aaker’s (1991) five dimensions of customer-based brand equity were operationalized. Respondents of our online survey were divided into three groups, exposed to differen
Det är inte längre en nyhet att e-handeln tar över retailbranschen. Omvandlingen har lett till att de väletablerade varumärkena hamnar i kaosartade situationer vilket kan leda till risker och vidare kan dessutom varumärket bli färgat. Forskare har tidigare intresserat sig utav hur de nyetablerade varumärkena, med moderna strategier och digitaliseringens medvind, tagit allt större plats på marknade

This thesis explores the standardisation process of the Hokkaido Dialect, a Japanese variety spoken on Japan’s northernmost island. This dialect, in turn, will be compared to the island of Okinawa and its regional equivalent Uchinaa-Yamatoguchi. These islands are parallel to each other as they share similar historical and political events. To investigate the standardisation process and to be able

Varför drabbas vi av cancer och varför är den så svår att bota? Cancer är i grund och botten en okontrollerad tillväxt av vävnad som orsakas av mutationer i vårt DNA. Denna ackumulerade vävnad kallas för tumör, och efter hand som tumören växer och sprider sig kan den slå ut livsnödvändiga organ i kroppen. Kroppen har ett naturligt försvar mot cancer och de tumörer som uppstår genom immunförsvaret.Immune checkpoint inhibitors have drastically improved the prognosis for several cancer patients, but still the exact underlying mechanism behind cancer immune escape and the role of individual immune cell populations remains poorly understood. Thus, further insights into the level of immune cell infiltration in cancers, their functional role, level of activation and maturity are warranted in orde
Coastal erosion has increased worldwide during the last decades, mostly due to human activities. Vietnam is not spared, where many places within the country suffer from beach erosion. This report focuses on the region around Thu Bon river mouth in the central part of Vietnam. The beaches next to the river mouth are experiencing severe erosion, especially Cua Dai Beach. The beach is totally eroded
This thesis concludes that financially distressed targets’ shareholders gain significantly higher premiums. Acquirers’ shareholders suffer from value destruction in the short-run when acquiring distressed targets, whereas in the long-run value is created. However, both findings are insignificantly different from non-distressed M&As. Key long-term value drivers in distressed M&As are relati
Bangka Island has been known as the most important tin producer in the world. Tin has developed the economy of the local people and even Indonesia in general. Unfortunately, mining is not only operated by corporations, but also by local people without proper procedures, resulting in a ruined landscape and ecosystem. Eventually, on 8th February 2016 a flood occurred and influenced the emotions of t
Problem - Skanska Industrial Solutions AB lays asphalt over a wide geographical area, and never in the same place and is also a work that is dependent on the weather. Asphalt is a product with low to no capacity to be stored. These factors contribute to a distribution that has the necessity to follow the JIT-principles. The asphalt production is in of a steady flow of asphalt being transported fro
The VAT system has been operating since 1967 across the European Union and is currently still in need to be adopted as definitive. Some issues should be confronted in 2018 before the implementation towards a fairer and simpler system. The proposal from the Commission set up in 2016 details the changes taken into account. As a cornerstone of the mentioned VAT system, this thesis will analyse the
I ett allt mer individbaserat samhälle, med ett skifte från normer när det gäller levnadssätt till allas unika livsval, ser vi ett ökat behov av boende för olika typer av konstellationer. Kärnfamiljen är inte lika självklar längre, ensamhushållen är fler och separationer är vanligt. Människor kan välja att bli förälder på egen hand och tvåsamhet som en självklarhet ifrågasätts helt och hållet. Vi In our individualized society, with a shift from strict norms on how we live our lives to everyone’s own unique lifestyle, we see a growing need for diversified housing for different types of constellations. The nuclear family is not a certainty anymore, the number of single residencies have increased and separations are common. People can choose to become a parent on their own and twosome relatio
Gallium nitride (GaN) nanowires grown using catalyst-free metal organic vapor phase epitaxy were used as scanning tunneling microscope (STM) probes. The probes were prepared by placing a GaN nanowire on a tungsten STM probe using a nanomanipulator in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and welding them together using an electron beam induced platinum deposition. STM imaging was performed on indiuA microscopy field known as Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), uses various methods to get a picture of a sample surface down to such a small scale that individual atoms can be observed. One particular method to perform such microscopy uses the phenomena of quantum tunneling rather than using visible light. This method is called Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and the way it works is extremely d
