In this paper, I show how stereotypes can confound the effects cultural diversity has on economic outcomes. This is done by expanding Kets and Sandroni’s (2021) theory of introspective equilibrium and cultural diversity by allowing inaccurate simplified beliefs about cultural groups. These simplified views (stereotypes) affect how strategic uncertainty is affected by diversity, the key mechanism o

Using the data of 110 completed special-purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) U.S.-listed between the 1st of January 2019 and the 15th of September 2021, this paper will examine the returns of SPACs based on the three phases of their SPACs life cycle in addition to the returns of their two main events; the merger announcement and the merger completion. Phase one is defined as the time period betwe

The main theme of this project is approaching the entire design process with logic thinking and feasible solutions at the core. Starting off with green house gas mitigation as the leading motivator, using relatively simple technology - to solve a high importance issue. The result is a system based on widely available technology, re-imagining grid level energy storage system as a mechanical and hig

Orbital or mean motion resonance (MMR) occurs when the orbital period ratio between two planets is close to a ratio of small integers. MMR can protect planets from collisions and affects the overall final architecture of the system. Observations of exoplanets have shown that the survival rate of MMR-chains is low, and most systems are near and just wide of an exact MMR. The most common chains are

In this work, the hardware implementation of Classic McEliece has been assessed for side-channel leakage through a power analysis. The official, unprotected, decryption procedure of Classic McEliece was implemented on a Xilinx Atix7 \acl{fpga} and incorporated into the \acl{cw} framework. Traces captured during decryption was assessed for information leakage and it was concluded that the implement

In this text we continue the work of describing subalgebras of K[x] of finite codimension that was started in “Describing subalgebras of K[x] using derivatives” [2]. In the referenced paper, the authors present how such subalgebras can be described by conditions on the values in certain points and proceed to develop a large theoretical framework to under-stand the nature of such conditions. The au

I den här uppsatsen undersöks förutsättningarna för spanska översättningar i Sverige genom kvalitativa intervjuer med sex svenska förlag. Syftet är att försöka bidra med en förståelse för hur den svenska översättningsmarknaden fungerar och mekanismerna bakom urvalet av den översatta spanskspråkiga skönlitteraturen, som kan sägas vara representerad i relativt låg grad i Sverige. Frågor som ställs t

The aim of this study was to examine the experiences and thoughts of the healthcare staff at a psychiatric ward regarding their ability to support the patients on their way towards personal recovery related to social work in a healthcare setting. The intention was to look closer at what challenges the staff faces, as well as what they find promoting the work to support personal recovery. Furthermo

We simulate the velocities of formed Black Holes to determine the fraction of retained Black Holes in 152 Globular Clusters. The model we used for the escape velocity is from Plummer. The scenarios of the natal kick are Neutronstar like kicks and momentum conserving kicks. We also consider the binary fraction which affect the retention of Black Holes. A typical Globular Cluster retains 0 or 102 BlThe Black Hole are popular objects in astronomy, a lot of scientists want to study their formation and evolution. Most astronomers agree with that there is a super massive black hole in the center of our galaxy. Also, some previous observations show that at least some clusters have black holes. As we all known, a typical black hole is formed by a core-collapse supernova of a massive star. The core

Biodiversity continues its devastating decline while Europe is facing an estimated 20 million ha of farmland abandonment until 2030. By reviewing scientific and grey literature, websites, and reports I investigate the impacts of rewilding on biodiversity in connection to abandoned farmland. In addition, I analyse the amount of abandoned farmland in three project areas from the Rewilding Europe org

Utveckling av en testningsbänk för att studera partiklar från kopplingar. Som en del av EU-projektet nPETS, vars syfte är att öka kunskapen om luftföroreningar från transportsektorn och deras påverkan på människans hälsa, så utvecklades en testningsbänk för att generera och mäta partiklar som uppstår från fordon med torrkopplingar. Luftföroreningar som uppstår från transportsektorn är ett välkänt

Memory impairment and prominent hippocampal atrophy are the most recognisable features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It has been known that hippocampus and surrounding medial temporal lobe (MTL) structures support memory processes. However, specific function of each MTL subfield remains to be elucidated. Not all MTL subfields are uniformly affected by AD pathology and the spread of AD pathology fol

K-pop is one of South Korea’s most famous cultural phenomena, and this thesis will delve into its impact outside of Korea‘s borders. The paper briefly discusses the background of the Korean Wave, and then dives right into the cultural form of K-pop and its connection with cultural diplomacy and soft power. The main focus of the thesis is to discuss the foreign perceptions of K-pop and that is done

Despite the importance of infrastructure, a big funding gap can be seen in infrastructure procurement. Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) were once seen as a solution, but years later the results are underwhelming. As the industry can be susceptible to corruption, concerns have emerged about PPPs. To confront these concerns, this study aims to investigate if there is a link between corruption and

The study of the dynamic interaction between pantograph and catenary by computer simulation is useful as it allows us to obtain much information about this system while minimizing the cost of line tests. With a program validated by the norm EN 50318, the behaviour of a pantograph-catenary couple at a certain speed can be accurately estimated. With the program INPAC, a parametric study on the curre
