This paper studies the long-term relationship between economic growth and institutional change. Using a dynamic panel data model, several tests are conducted to test for both long- and short-term movements in GDP, and institutional quality using annual data from 87 countries ranging from 1984 to 2016. This paper contributes with an econometric approach to long-term GDP change theory as several tes
In this paper we propose the use of a new set of conservative critical values for the flexible Fourier form Dickey-Fuller unit root test when the Fourier frequency is estimated. We consider both the integer frequency and the fractional frequency version of the test and investigate their size and power properties. We find that the integer frequency test sometimes has zero power when the determinist
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om utdelningars utbetalningsgrad, vinstvolatilitet, storlek och hävstång har någon inverkan på aktiebolagets volatilitet. Vidare syftar denna uppsats till att undersöka huruvida dessa samband är tillämpliga på både Large Cap-företag och företag som listas på Mid och Small Cap. Teorierna bygger på rådande teorier i området, bland annat Bird in the hand hypThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether Payout ratio, Earnings volatility, Size, and Leverage have any effect on the volatility of the stock. Furthermore, this thesis seeks to investigate whether these relationships apply to both Large Cap firms and firms listed on Mid and Small Cap. The theories are based upon prevailing theories in the area, among them Bird in the hand hypothesis,

Utveckling av mätteknik för mätning av rörligheten i knäleder hos barn med Cerebral pares Cerebral pares (CP) är en neurologisk störning som kan leda till förlust eller nedsättning av de motoriska funktioner som påverkar kroppens rörelser, muskelkontroll, koordination och balans. CP kan orsaka obalanser mellan musklerna som kan leda till kontrakturer. Kontrakturer innebär att musklerna förkortas Cerebral Palsy, commonly referred to as CP, is a neurological disorder that results in loss or impairment of motor function, which affects body movement, muscle control, muscle coordination and balance. In Sweden, about 200 children are diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy every year and the disorder can cause imbalances between the muscles. These imbalances can lead to contractures which is equiva- lent
International work aid is a form of social work that historically has been conducted by non-profit organizations. When the commercial volunteer agencies entered the market they did so with a well-known product but with a different organizational form. The for-profit social enterprise does not only aim to create social value but also financial value. The commercial volunteer travels, called volunto
The aim of this essay is to analyze written formative feedback to investigate whether there are certain patterns and differences in feedback given to students with different grades. This is done to expand the knowledge about what the genre of written formative feedback looks like in a Swedish school setting and what it can mean for the students and their teachers. By applying a move-analysis devel
Vart tar läkemedlet tar vägen? Genom att märka potentiella cancerläkemedel med en radioaktiv isotop är det möjligt att bestämma vad i kroppen läkemedlet befinner sig. Proteiner har en stor diversitet av funktioner i kroppen och är essentiella för människans överlevnad, både som byggnadsmaterial och katalysatorer för kemiska reaktioner, men också som regulatorer för olika funktioner i kroppen. GaGalectins are a family of proteins naturally occurring in humans involved in a broad variety of bodily functions, including regulation of immune response and inflammation. The most studied protein of the family, galectin-3, has repeatedly been proven to be involved in tumour progression, affecting both tumour survival and metastasis. Both in vitro and in vivo analyses have yielded information that
The purpose of this essay is threefold. First, to look at the curriculum of English in the upper secondary classroom and what the role of narratology is. Secondly, an analysis of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (2001) and Journey (2012) through Campbell’s monomyth and how the stages are presented to the viewer/player. Lastly, how these media and analysis are beneficial in teaching narrato
The aim of this thesis is motivated by three parallel discussions; the popular Lutheran rhetoric in placing law against grace, the discussion in contemporary moral philosophy where a neutral perspective on ethical assessments is assumed, and a recent Swedish case and public debate in which a minority group's need for bodily integrity was breached with reference to universal principles. These d
Phantoms mimicking the specific mechanical and acoustic properties of human tissues are essential in the development and evaluation of novel ultrasound methods. In this work, various ultrasound phantoms are proposed to be used in the development of ultrasound methods to investigate the arterial walls longitudinal movements influence on the vasa vasorum circulation. The longitudinal movement of art
Companies want to keep their customers. Especially, when they offer subscription based services instead of one time purchases. In the former case, if customers want to leave the company, they need to cancel their subscription. This is called customer churn. On the example of One.com, a company that offers subscription based web hosting, a mathematical model is developed to predict customer churn,
De senaste åren har svensk transvård varit ämne för skarp kritik från såväl enskilda transpersoner som organisationer engagerade i transfrågor. Hösten 2017 publicerade Transgender Europe en omfattande internationell rapport som visar på betydande skillnader mellan patienters och vårdgivares uppfattning av den vård som erbjuds transpersoner i bland annat Sverige. Förutom i denna rapport har det docA large-scale international report recently published by Transgender Europe shows great discrepancy between the patients’ and the caregivers’ views on transgender care. Apart from this report, those working in transgender care have yet to make their voices heard. However, transgender individuals as well as organizations working with issues of the transgender and queer communities in Sweden have be
In this thesis I investigate the notion of imagination in Romantic thought and in the visual art of William Blake with the aim of making a contribution to theological methodology. In early German Romanticism, as well as in the art of William Blake, the concept of imagination plays a central role in the relationship between the Absolute and the perceiving and knowing subject. My thesis takes its st
Tillförlitliga modeller för gröna tak kan minska risken för översvämningar I framtidens städer kommer risken för översvämningar att vara större, men gröna tak kan eventuellt bidra till att förhindra dessa problem. För att veta var dessa kan göra störst nytta kan man använda sig av modeller, förutsatt att de ger tillförlitliga resultat. I framtiden kommer allt fler människor att bo i städer, vilkDue to the ongoing urbanisation, the urban environment will consist of extended impervious areas, such as roof tops, roads and parking lots. During rainfall events these kinds of impermeable areas will cause a faster and larger response in runoff, which can lead to an increased load on the storm-water system and thus increase the risk of flooding. In certain areas, the situation will be further wo
Det kan i dagsläget vara svårt att veta hur många som vistas i en byggnad. Detta är problematiskt sett ur räddningstjänstens perspektiv. Om räddningstjänsten under räddningsinsatser vet hur många personer som finns kvar i en byggnad samt var de befinner sig, kan räddningsinsatsen effektiviseras. Utrymningssystem som har kännedom om personers position i en byggnad medger möjlighet att i realtid vägIf during an emergency, the rescue service have knowledge of how many people are left in a building and where they are located, the rescue service’s response could be more effective and reduce the overall risk. Dynamic crowd management is a new way of managing crowd movements during an emergency. For this system to work,sensors capable of tracking people in need of evacuation, is required. In Octo
