Fashion eller faux pas? En fallstudie av hur konsumenter på second hand-plattformen Plick ser på konsumtionen av märkeskopior

Designer fashion items hold a high status within the fashion industry. A designer brands’ culture, aesthetic, and exclusivity give their products a symbolic value that can be used by consumers to build identity or express qualities like success or wealth. Therefore it is natural that counterfeit fashion items emerge as an alternative for consumers who want to emulate these qualities, but for a che

Vogue Scandinavia – myten om skandinavisk estetik: En semiotisk bildanalys av den skandinaviska estetikens uttryck utifrån Vogue Scandinavia

The aim of this essay is to analyse six Vogue Scandinavia covers and their aesthetic in relation to the myth of Scandinavia and the Scandinavian aesthetic. This to grasp in what ways the covers reproduce and produce myths about the region and its aesthetic expression. With the methodological framework consisting of Roland Barthes semiotic method the six covers are semiotically analysed through den

Tiktok och mode: Unga kvinnors konsumtionsvanor i fokus

This study will examine how fashion consumption looks on Tiktok among young women aged 18 - 19 years in Sweden. The aim is to find out which factors influence the target group's fashion consumption on Tiktok and in which specific ways Tiktok contributes to the target group's fashion consumption. To answer these questions, we will use a quantitative survey which will then be analyzed with a

Landscape composition can influence reproductive success of plants in semi-natural grasslands depending on their pollinator dependence

In a world where insect pollinator declines are a reality, understanding their effects on the reproduction and persistence of wild plant species is vital to contribute to decisions for appropriate conservation strategies. This is especially true in areas which host a high species diversity, like European semi-natural grasslands. In fragmented habitats in particular, pollinator availability can be

Remote carbon cycle changes are overlooked impacts of land cover and land management changes

Land cover and land management changes (LCLMCs) have a substantial impact on the global carbon budget and, consequently, on global climate via the biogeochemical (BGC) effects. The commonly considered BGC effects refer to the direct influence of LCLMCs on local carbon stocks (local BGC effects). However, LCLMCs also influence climate by altering the local surface energy balance due to changes in l

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of a novel fluorescent probe for competitive fluorescence polarization assay to screen galectin-8 inhibitors

In the present work, we describe the design, synthesis, and evaluation of a galectin-8- binding fluorescent probe designed for a competitive fluorescence polarization (FP) assay for screening new galectin-8N inhibitors. The probe was characterized for its photophysical properties and its binding affinity for galectin-8N was determined by using FP. We evaluated the probe in a competitive FP assay w

Potential grammaticalization of epistemic phrases : What could be might be

This paper deals with the potential grammaticalization of English (it) could be and (it) might be into epistemic sentence adverbs in analogy to maybe. They can occur in adverb-like positions and functions in informal language use, e.g. (it) could be something good has begun, often with the pronoun it omitted. But, given that no diachronic development is attested, to what extent does their usage inThis paper deals with the potential grammaticalization of English (it) could be and (it) might be into epistemic sentence adverbs in analogy to maybe.

Constructalgia Cured : Sports heritage in the Anthropocene and Beyond

This article is based on the creation of sports heritage as having strong roots in the Anthropocene. It particularly discusses listed building declarations of the built heritage of sport, from a Swedish perspective, as well as the feelings of nostalgia associated with such activities. Two contemporary examples of preserved sports heritage sites, Hindås Ski Jumping Hill in Hindås and the stand at V

Theorising notions of searching, (re)sources and evaluation in the light of generative AI

Introduction. The introduction of publicly available large language models (LLMs) since 2022 has significantly challenged traditional library and information studies (LIS) core concepts. This paper argues that LIS needs to rethink aspects of its conceptual framework to address the challenges posed by the proliferation of AI-generated content and how this content is produced.Analysis. The study emp

Do afforestation projects increase core forests? Evidence from the Chinese Loess Plateau

The spatial pattern of forests impacts on biodiversity, stability and sustainability of forest ecosystems. Afforestation and reforestation projects have massively increased forested areas on the Chinese Loess Plateau, however, the spatial pattern of the new and old forests, as well as their interaction, remains unknown. Here we study the spatiotemporal dynamics of old and new forests for the perio

The impregnable fortress of Islamic public administration in Central Asia: mahalla institutions in Uzbekistan

There was a widespread euphoria in the 1990s in Uzbekistan and other post-Soviet societies at the prospect that introducing Western-style public administration (PA) institutions and traditions would play a pivotal role in promoting the rule of law and democratisation. Like other newly independent post-Soviet states, Uzbekistan has become a “laboratory” for testing various global (Western) PA model

Comparison of CSF biomarkers in multiple sclerosis patients treated with natalizumab and rituximab

Background: Patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) treated with the high-efficacy drugs natalizumab (NTZ) or rituximab (RTX) generally show no evidence of disease activity. Currently, there is no head-to-head comparison between NTZ and RTX of neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Objectives: To compare CSF biomarkers in a stable RRMS

Continuity Continues : The Listed Building Declaration of Hindås Ski Jumping Hill and an Imaginable Future for Marginalised Heritage

Welcome No More? Shifting Attitudes towards Ukrainian Refugees in Europe

Almost seven million Ukrainians have fled Ukraine since Russia’s large-scale invasion in February 2022. Seeking refuge in other European states, they were welcomed. However, recent analyses have emerged which point to an increasing discrimination against Ukrainian refugees who were displaced by Russia’s aggression, including in previously supportive nations like Poland. The shifting treatment and

Sjuksköterskors erfarenhet av att vårda patienter med utländsk bakgrund - En Litteraturstudie

Bakgrund: Den kulturella mångfalden i Sverige har ökat under de senaste decennierna, främst som en konsekvens av migration. Denna utveckling påverkar hälso- och sjukvården, som möter en alltmer varierad befolkning. Socioekonomiska och kulturella skillnader har en inverkan på tillgången till vård och på vårdens kvalitet. Det anses nödvändigt att vården anpassas för att kunna bemöta de skiftande beh
