Accumulated empirical research has evidenced the existence of value premium, which refers to the return gap between value and growth stocks. Our paper aims to investigate this phenomenon for Nordic market by estimating expected return from its fundamentals, dividends and earnings. Our study covers analyses of expected returns from 1998 to 2016 for 141 companies. We use dividend approach to calcula

Bakgrund: Tidigare studier visar att sjuksköterskor upplever oklarheter i sin roll när en patient ska flyttas från intensivvårdsavdelning till vårdavdelning. Svårigheter i processen kan vara samarbetsproblem och tidsbrist. Syfte: Att beskriva sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av överflyttningsprocessen av patienter från intensivvårdsavdelning till vårdavdelning. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie

The case company under study has conducted a continuous process of business model innovation for sustainability since 2007, but is suffering from barriers present in the process. The limited amount of literature on business model innovation for sustainability provides little guidance on barriers. Therefore, this research aims to contribute to the literature by identifying what barriers are present

Research question: How does organizational culture, using complex adaptive systems perspective, influence problem creation process in the front end of innovation? Theoretical perspectives: Front end of innovation literature is the core subject of this thesis,focusing on problem creation process. Academic literature on organizational culture and complex adaptive systems is presented to show the re

I dagens Sverige uppmärksammas bränder som sprider sig genom konstruktionen i byggnader allt mer (Johansson, 2015). Hos räddningstjänsten har det förekommit felbedömningar och kunskapsbrist som har resulterat i stora skador. Ett exempel är en brand i ett bostadshus i Luleå där konstruktionen bestod av trä bakom den tegelfasad som fanns, uppfattningen var att stommen var av betong (Larsson, 2014). The purpose of the study is to draw attention to and further develop the issue of access to blue prints and other information that might ease the operations of the fire department using literature studies and interviews. The method for carrying out the study was with a semi-structured interview method where questions were asked to different respondents, who are working as operational chiefs in fir

Two major trends in scholarly publishing to have emerged in recent years are the increased demands on the availability of scientific publications (Open Access) and the evaluation of scholarly publishing by quantitative measures. On the one hand, scholars today have to conform to demands from funding agencies as well as other institutions to publish their findings Open Access. On the other hand, th

Skräp som skräp? Eller? Vad gör det om vi slänger lite fel i soppåsen ibland? Det mesta blandas väl bara och bränns upp ändå? Nej, så är det inte, och särskilt viktigt är det att inte slänga produkter med farliga egenskaper i vanliga soporna. Farligt avfall är produkter och ämnen som kan innebära en risk för miljön eller människors hälsa. Det handlar inte bara om kemikalier som färg och oljor, uAnnually, approximately 11 000 tons of hazardous waste ends up in the residual waste in Sweden, causing economic losses as well as negative environmental- and health impacts. This study examines the extent of incorrect sorting of household hazardous waste (HHW) in six municipalities in southern Sweden. With data from 62 waste composition analyses carried out during the period 2006-2015, a detailed

Varje stjärna vi ser på himlavalvet en stjärnklar natt tillhör vår galax Vintergatan, och var och en har de en historia att berätta. Målet med astronomi, den äldsta grenen av naturvetenskapen, är att förstå hur dessa magnifika strukturer uppstod och formades till den skepnad de antar i dag. Stjärnor bildas ur enorma gasmoln, och vid slutet av sin livstid slungar de ut sina beståndsdelar i galaxen.Metal-poor (MP) stars in the Milky Way (the Galaxy) and its satellite galaxies open a window into the earliest times in the history of the Universe, probing the chemistry of the earliest times. Recent galaxy formation simulations predict that the oldest MP stars are those on tightly bound orbits in the inner regions of a galaxy (Tumlinson 2010). Applying this to the Milky Way, MP stars in the bulg

Arkiv används ofta som en källa inom olika forskningsprojekt. I den här uppsatsen är det istället arkivet i sig som är studieobjekt. Utifrån mediearkeologisk teori undersöks Biblioteksstyrelsens arkiv i Åmål. Uppsatsens teoretiska utgångspunkter är att arkiv befinner sig i en samhällelig kontext och återspeglar det minne det lagrar.

Based on media archaeological theory, the Library Board's archive in Åmål is examined. The theoretical basis of the essay is that archives are in a social context and reflect the memory it stores. It is a qualitative study and the archive has been investigated on s

Kartong kan framställas för att få fram olika egenskaper. En kartongförpackning har någon gång i tiden vikts fram av en bit kartong. Men hur viker man utan att få oönskade skador och veck, och hur påverkas detta av materialets egenskaper?Paperboard is frequently used as a base material in packages. There is folding involved in the conversion process, where a package is formed from a paperboard sheet. However, because direct folding causes undesirable effects such as wrinkles, it must first be creased. The creasing procedure consists of intentionally damaging the material, creating an indentation on the piece, after which the mater

Background: Ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunt is a catheter which circulate flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the lateral ventricle to the abdomen and it is the most commonly used shunt in modern neurosurgery. Complications of VP shunts are very common and often require emergency services. For the perioperative nurse this means that theVP shunt reoperation is one of the most often performed em

Over the last decades Sweden’s archival institutions have taken a turn towards becoming open and modern cultural institutions with outreach work. This is especially noted in the City of Malmoe where Malmoe City Archives has undergone a heavy renewal and has among other things been relocated from the prosperous Western Harbour in the outskirts of the city to the more diverse inner city in Möllevång
