Enligt en av tidernas utvecklingspsykolog Vygotskij är talspråket en av de viktigaste tillgångarna vi människor har. Det är så vi kommunicerar och interagera med varandra menar Vygotskij (Bråten, 1998). Vi pratar ofta om språkutveckling, men i denna uppsats kommer jag att fokusera på talspråksutvecklingen. I takt med att samhället förändras, så måste vi snabbt lära oss att interagera med varandra,

Denna studie bygger på en kvalitativ analys av hur svenska poliser skildrar sin yrkesroll i relation till den personliga identiteten, hur de ser på straff i Sverige i allmänhet, fängelsestraffets funktion och effektivitet i synnerhet.

Innovation för ökad säkerhet inom ridsporten Ungefär 500 000 av Sveriges invånare rider regelbundet på olika nivåer. Att rida ensam är inte ovanligt och farhågan att ramla av hästen är alltid närvarande. Snart kan risken att bli ensam utan hjälp efter ett fall minskas drastiskt, med din egen mobiltelefon som enda verktyg.Horseback riding is enjoyed by millions of people worldwide, both as a competitive sport and as recreational activity. Horses have a congenital habit to flee from potential danger and the nature of the sport carries with it a risk of falling from the horse. Equestrians are often riding alone and the additional risk of being unaided after a severe fall accident is prominent. The need of a smartphon

Facebook uppfattas som gratis, men i verkligheten betalar användarna med data som samlas in för att bland annat sälja vidare till tredje part. Har svenskar kunskap om hur deras

Från marken skickas växthusgaser ut i atmosfären - kan jordbruket påverka detta? Klimatförändringarna har flera orsaker. Den största är naturligtvis avbränningen av fossila bränslen, men även mikrober i marken producerar stora mängder koldioxid när de bryter ner organiskt material i jorden. Andra typer av bakterier i jorden bryter ner metan som också är en viktig växthusgas. Nedbrytning av metan Rhizosphere interactions have high influence on the fluxes of carbon to and from terrestrial ecosystems. One very important part of the rhizosphere interactions is the rhizosphere priming effect (RPE) which is defined as changes in the decomposition rate of soil organic matter (SOM) in response to labile organic carbon input from plant roots. Changes in decomposition of SOM affect nutrient availab

The requirement that taxable persons act in good faith first appeared in the Court of Justice’s case law in 1989. Given that there is an indisputable link between it and the rights to deduct input VAT, exempt intra-Community transactions and adjust improperly invoiced VAT, the requirement has potentially serious financial repercussions for taxable persons across the EU. However, exemplified by the

Environmental change has the potential to displace people all over the world, particularly those with high exposure to change and low adaptive capacities. In this context, migration is a response to individual and collective vulnerabilities, and thus represents an adaption strategy. Environmental migration can be triggered by environmental change directly, in the form of natural hazards, or indire

This thesis aims to analyse the effects on the Swedish economic growth as a result of growing carbon dioxide emissions during the period of 2017-2060. As being one of the Nordic countries, predicted to be one of the few least affected countries by global warming, Sweden will still most likely face the challenges of rising sea levels and more extreme weather events that will cause damages on infras

Publication in open access format is still not a requirement when it comes to scholarly books in Sweden, but will likely be in the near future. Academic libraries often play an important role when it comes to supporting researchers in scholarly communication and it is likely

Alfdex is the market leader for high efficient solutions for removing particles from crankcase gases in diesel engines. Alfdex aims to expand to new markets by exploring the possibility to adapt their technology to clean the intake air of diesel engines. When designing and developing air cleaning systems, the two most critical parameters are the pressure drop and the cleaning efficiency. A Computa

On average, entrepreneurs have lower incomes than employed individuals, work longer hour, and endure more stress. In spite of the grim reality, research has consistently shown entrepreneurs are more satisfied with their lives than employees. Through interviews with three former employees who have all undergone a transition to entrepreneurship, this study brings an in-depth understanding of how a s
