Som kyrkomusiker förväntas jag leverera vid kyrkliga handlingar med en förberedelsetid som ofta är kortare än en vecka. Mina främsta utmaningar ligger i att effektivt instudera ett stycke och i att känna mig trygg när jag framför stycket. Jag har modifierat och utvecklat min tidigare instuderingsmetod vid inlärning av stycket Clair de lune - L. Vierne och därefter gjort en inspelning av stycket. J
Denna kandidatuppsats är en kvalitativ undersökning om vilken effekt motiverande samtal (MI) har på arbetet för LSS-pedagoger som jobbar med personer med omfattande och varaktiga funktionshinder. MI är ett förhållningssätt som används i diverse vård och omsorgsyrken, men få studier har gjorts på samtalsledarens erfarenheter av MI, speciellt personal som jobbar inom LSS (Lagen om stöd och service fThis bachelor’s thesis is a qualitative inquiry into what effect Motivational interviewing (MI) has on the work experience of pedagogues working with people with mental impairment. MI is a counselling approach which is used in various care & support professions, but few studies have been conducted on the interviewer’s experience of using MI, especially people working in LSS (the Swedish act co
This thesis establishes a theoretical framework for constructing orthonormal tensor spline bases, to transform two-dimensional functions into a coherent set of coefficients, for easier analysis of functional data. Through empirical testing on image datasets, the method showcases promising results, underscoring its utility in pattern recognition tasks. This research lays a foundation for further ex
Seeing how climate change disproportionately affects women and children, the voices of young people and women are vital to incorporate into discussions and decision-making processes regarding climate change. This thesis explores the experiences of young women in the climate movement who have participated at the COP climate conferences between 2015-2023. By drawing on the theoretical framework of f
Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur unga flickor i åldern 16 år i Malmö inspireras till självobjektifiering genom influencers på sociala medieplattformar. Mer specifikt betraktas detta utifrån influencern Bianca Ingrosso och hennes Instagram-innehåll. Genom en kvalitativ metod i form av intervjuer med unga flickor ur denna målgrupp strävar vi efter att se vilka samband som kan finnas mellan
The growing importance of organisations becoming more sustainable has reached a crucial point. To aid the journey of becoming more sustainable information systems and specifically business intelligence is an appropriate solution to help manage and measure sustainable development. However previous research suggests the use of business intelligence in the context of sustainability is not as prevalen
This thesis critically explores gender equality in international development, focusing on Guatemala amidst resurgent right-wing politics, volatile commitment, and gender backlash. It investigates how institutions like the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) navigate gender mainstreaming in a country with fluctuating dedication to gender equality. Through mixed methods, including thematic analy
Frågor kring hur begrepp och förklaringsmodeller används inom sångundervisning har varit ständigt närvarande under vår utbildning till sångpedagoger och var därmed ett givet val för oss att vilja undersöka vidare. Syftet med studien är att undersöka sångpedagogers yrkesspråk utifrån begrepp och förklaringsmodeller genom att ta del av deras erfarenheter och kunskaper. I vår undersökning har vi genoQuestions surrounding the use of terms and explanatory models in vocal training has been a constant presence throughout our education as vocal coaches and was therefore a natural choice for us to further investigate. The aim of this study is to explore vocal coaches' professional language based on terms and explanatory models by examining their experiences and expertise. In our study, we condu
This paper analyses deuteron evaporation in comparison to the evaporation of a proton-neutron pair for different compound nuclei. The main reaction is the fusion-evaporation reaction of 40Ca on 24Mg target leading to the formation of the 64Ge∗ compound nucleus, along with other contamination reactions. The experimental dataset is obtained from Argonne National Laboratory. Projections on γ-γ matric
A scattering process is the event where particles collide with each other and then move away from each other, in any direction. This is the foundation of any reaction between nuclei and is a central part of nuclear physics. In modelling these reactions, it is central to determine an effective potential, representing the reaction, to use in analysis. This potential is a complex potential referred
The issue of corporate accountability for human rights has gained significant attention in recent years, driven by increasing globalisation, complex corporate structures, and the public’s growing awareness of the harmful effects of business activities. Alongside the rising prominence of human rights on the international agenda, the issue of environmental impacts of corporations has also become mor
Much work has established M&A capabilities and its impact on M&A performance, likewise, a great deal of research has investigated internationalization. However, little theoretical attention has been brought to the implications of M&A capabilities on firms formulating internationalization strategies. This study examines how M&A capabilities impact decision-making processes in strate
The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of the Swedish central bank's monetary policy on regional house prices. This study aims to capture variations between how different regions are affected, and capture monetary policy effects over time. The method used in this thesis to estimate the effect is modeled in two steps. Step one consists of estimating monetary policy shocks from poli
Ultrasound optical tomography is a medical imaging modality that combines ultrasound and light to improve the low resolution of optical imaging caused by scattering in tissue. Photons passing through an ultrasound pulse have a probability of being frequency shifted. By filtering out these photons and analysing them, images with optical contrast and ultrasound resolution can be obtained. In this t
Problematic school absenteeism and homebound students have over the years become a great problem in society. Research indicates that both causes for absenteeism and the path back to school are complex. Early detection is crucial to enable students to return to school. What do homebound students say about their situation? In this study, we aimed to explore the perspective of homebound students and
This thesis examines the relationship between Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) factors and investment strategies. Specifically, it focuses on how ESG scores can influence investment decisions within companies listed on the DAX Index, the benchmark German stock market index. Using Granger causality on individual companies from the DAX and on portfolios built on the ESG score of companies w
Minnesintergration är en minnesfunktion som bidrar till kunskapsinlärning genom att kombinera information från överlappande event. Denna studie undersöker påverkan av olika källor, ingrupp och utgrupp, på minnesintegration. Deltagarna (N = 61) valde medlemmar till sitt eget lag, ingruppen, och motståndarlaget, utgruppen.

This study investigates the influence of ingroup and outgroup sources on memory integration. Participants (N = 61) selected ingroup teammates and outgroup opponents to present them information in a knowledge extension task, driven by memory integration mecha
Denna uppsats undersöker löneskillnaderna mellan män och kvinnor i USA för höginkomsttagare. Mellan 1970-1990 minskade könslöneskillnaderna i USA drastiskt, men en bit in på 1990-talet stannade utvecklingen upp. Att utvecklingen bromsat upp beror främst på att högavlönade yrken idag belönar individer som arbetar “långa timmar” mer än vad som gjordes under 1970-talet. Detta missgynnar kvinnor efter
This study explores the lived experience of individuals with level 1 autism in Sweden, focusing on how societal norms and regimes of truth shape their everyday lives. Drawing on Goffman's theories of stigma and normality, alongside Foucault's perspectives on neoliberalism, this paper investigates the societal challenges and expectations that individuals with autism face. Through interviews
