Problemområde: Organisationskultur och identitet är två begrepp som a

Den här uppsatsen behandlar förväntningarna på framtiden vid årsskiftena under åren 1880-1914 i sex svensk-amerikanska veckotidningar. Med utgångspunkt i Reinhart Kosellecks teori om begreppsparet erfarenhetsrum och förväntningshorisont samt skiftet från det cykliska perspektivet till det lineära perspektivet som beskrivs av Lennart Lundmark undersöks hur förväntningar och erfarenheter förändras u

The effective width model was introduced to show how the flow was linearly proportional to the effective width on stairwells accounting for the edge effect as well as lateral body sway. In this sense, small increments on the width of the stairwell were proven to increment the flow through it in a linear manner. This same principle is currently applied as part of the background for the hydraulic ca

This paper deals with the impact of China on Ukraine and Argentina in relation to their agricultural sector. Both countries are oriented towards export of commodities as a driver for their economic growth. Based on several data sources from world renowned organizations, a comparative analysis is conducted to study the positive and negative effect from the growing relationship of Ukraine and Argent

In the past 30 years, the Chinese government has promoted ownership reform and corporate governance reform to improve the performance of SOEs. Simultaneously, China has come to the era of MOEs. There has been growing empirical studies that consider the effects of corporate governance and state ownership on MOEs’ performance. This study utilized a panel vector autoregression approach to analyze the

Musikteori har alltid varit ett av mina stora intressen. Sedan min gymnasietid har jag intresserat mig för hur undervisningen bedrivs och vilka utvecklingsmöjligheter som finns i ämnet gehörs- och musiklära. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur musikelever vid estetiska programmet uppfattar undervisningen i kursen gehörs- och musiklära 1 samt hur eleverna skulle vilja förändra undervisningenMusic theory has always been one of my great interests. Since my studies in high school I have been interested in how the education is conducted and what opportunities for development there is in the field of music theory education. This study aims at examining how music students experience the education they get in music theory as well as how they would like to change the education. The study was

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the effects on the elements of a company’s brand identity when a firm is moving towards a customer-centric orientation by engaging in the process of servitization. By utilizing a single case study, we aspire to examine how the servitization elements portray the servitization level, as well as which elements of the Corporate Brand Identity Matrix are affecte

Syftet med studien är att undersöka om insulinpumpsbehandling (CSII) är kostnadseffektiv i jämförelse med intensiv injektionsbehandling (MDI) vid diabetes typ-1 enligt svenska riktlinjer. Förhoppningen är att undersökningen ska inspirera framtida studier samt bidra med kunskap inom aktuellt område. Den tidigare hälsoekonomiska forskning som ligger till grund för denna studie jämför CSII med MDI g

Since the 1980s, the Arctic has experienced an amplified warming of more than twice the rate of the global-mean, leading to large-scale changes in the Arctic hydrologic system, ultimately having cascading feedbacks on the global climate. However, few of today’s distributed models manage to capture the complex processes in Arctic hydrology, and therefore, the aim of this thesis was to evaluate the

Denna uppsats ämnar att genom en kvalitativ metod undersöka hierarkier inom sjukvården för att bidra med en mer nyanserad förståelse om hierarkins betydelse för ledarskapsprocessen, det vill säga hur ledarskap konstrueras. För att komma åt fenomenet om hierarkier inom sjukvården har djupintervjuer med sjuksköterskor gjorts eftersom de tycks befinna sig i mitten av det hierarkiska systemet. Det emp

Vetenskap inom planetformation a ̈r ett omr ̊ade som har utvecklats mycket sedan de allra fo ̈rsta exoplaneterna uppt ̈acktes. Da ̈r vi tidigare hade ett enda exemplar av planetsystem att studera (v ̊art egna Solsystem) har vi idag tusentals observationer av planetsystem runt andra stj ̈arnor.

Since the first observations of exoplanets, planet-planet scattering has been proposed as a possible mechanism for exciting the eccentricities and inclinations of giant exoplanets. Many works have showed that indeed the ob

One way to make a UV curable ink is to mix a pigment dispersion with monomers, oligomers, photoinitiators and additives. Creating a pigment dispersion is in many cases the first processing step of making a UV curable ink and is of large importance. To process pigment dispersions of Pigment red 2 and Pigment red 122 a premixing step with a dissolver is used followed by a grinding step employing a t

Cooperation in soils can make a huge difference At a first glance, the coexistence of diverse plants in ecosystems seems to be completely harmonious. However, there is a high competence of these organisms for obtaining resources. In this scenario, most of the plants have decided to make a lifetime deal with fungi in order to ensure their development and survival. This symbiotic association is cal

This thesis estimates the returns to schooling in Sweden for working individuals by applying the Mincer equation on three datasets from the International Social Survey Programme and compare the results to assess potential trends. It also investigates if there is any difference in returns to schooling for men and women and if there seem to be any signalling effects present. The estimates indicate t

This thesis looks into cross-cultural in-store marketing and how, with the use of contemporary symbols, marketing messages can cross language barriers. In the context of cosmopolitan cities with large populations of international inhabitants, being able to market to all individuals regardless of linguistic abilities and cultural backgrounds is critical for firms to stay competitive. Simply replaci

3D-modeller är grunden i det som kallas BIM och är något som används mer flitigt inom byggbranschen men desto mindre inom anläggningsprojekt. BIM har utvecklats mer och mer för att underlätta samordningen av flera aktörer och lösa konflikter i olika faser och skeden. Med ytterligare dimensioner integreras även tid och kostnadsaspekten på projektet som resulterar i ett mer produktivt byggande. Gru3D-models are the base of what is called BIM. It is used more and more within in the construction industry over all, but not as much in the field of infrastructure projects. BIM is developed to coordinate several actors and resolve conflicts in different phases of the construction. With dimensions integrated in the model, such as time and cost aspect, it result in a more productive project. The m

This study is an initial attempt to investigate value co-creation in the gaming industry by looking at Value Co-Creation through a framework called The Value Co-Creation Egg. The aim of the framework was to identify the mechanisms of The Consumer and The Company, which ultimately led to a deeper understanding of how these actors operate within the context of The Market. To understand The Consumer,

The study contributes to a body of research on a specific corporate taxation system, distributed profit taxation, by examining whether the system has affected corporate behavior in the long term and if it has, to what extent. The results partly corroborate previous literature but provide new evidence on the long-term effects of distributed profit taxation. We show that compared to classical gross

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 50,000 SNP-trait associations. Most of these SNPs or genetic variants map to noncoding regions, known as or gene desserts. This makes it challenging to describe the mechanism by which the variant confers susceptibility to the trait. Increasingly, there is an interest in characterization and interpretation of the effect of non-coding

Syftet med denna undersökning är att identifiera faktorer som påverkar chefers möjligheter att bidra till ett välfungerande kvalitetsarbete i organisationer. Bristande engagemang och okunskap hos chefer har enligt forskning visat sig vara en av de största anledningarna till att kvalitetsarbete misslyckas. Chefer är viktiga i arbete med kvalitetssäkring av verksamhetsprocesser i organisationer. På
