This study investigates Scanian Swedes’ dialect identification ability of seven Swedish regional dialects. Particularly, the study aims to find out whether or not the scientific division of Swedish dialect regions more or less overlap with actual speakers’ ability to differentiate between dialects. It also investigates some idiosyncratic participant variables that affect dialect identification abi
Den snabba digitaliseringen av transaktioner i banksektorn medför i kombination med uppkomsten av AI en kraftig ökning av finansiella brott, vilket utmanar regelbaserade säkerhetssystem. Syftet med denna intervjustudie är att skapa en förståelse för användningen av AI-system i arbetet mot finansiell brottslighet inom den svenska banksektorn. Genom ett sociotekniskt perspektiv och ramverket TechnolThe rapid digitalization of banking transactions, combined with the emergence of AI, has led to a sharp increase in financial crime, challenging traditional rule-based security systems. This interview study aims to understand the utilization of AI systems in countering financial crime within the Swedish banking sector. Drawing on a sociotechnical perspective and the Technology, Organization, and E
This thesis builds a new dataset on the composition and evolution of credit portfolios for Latin America’s six largest economies between 2000-2025. The new dataset was built by manually compiling credit information from local regulators and central banks. Its objective is to improve empirical analysis by (i) allowing to study the interaction between different credit segments and economic outcomes,
This thesis provides macro-level evidence that finance has a positive effect on innovation across high- income OECD countries from 1996 to 2022. Building on the existing literature, it examines the different effects of bank-based and market-based financing on innovation. Instead of using static financial indicators that capture the size of the financial system, this thesis uses measures that captu
This thesis examines the role of credit allocation in China’s growth model. Based on the ‘Quantity Theory of Disaggregated Credit’, it focuses on how the growth in different types of bank credit is associated with GDP growth and its components. By making use of a disaggregated credit dataset from 2008 up to 2025, this thesis finds that both household and enterprise credit have a positive relations

This thesis examines how the environmental, regulatory, and social problems arising from U.S.– Malaysia plastic waste trade were represented following China’s 2018 National Sword policy and Malaysia’s eventual 2025 restrictions on plastic waste imports. Rather than treating plastic waste trade as only a material flow, this study seeks to analyze how different actors constructed meaning through com
Gender inequality persists in contemporary Europe despite decades of legal reform. Yet, the emotional bond to the nation may lead women to perceive the unequal gender arrangements as fair and legitimate, a process rooted in system justification motivation. This study examines the association between national attachment and perceived gender fairness among women, and whether this association varies
Ethylene oxidation over Pd nanoparticles in an ambient pressure environment was studied. While modulating the temperature in an ethylene-oxygen mixture, operando ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed an oscillating thickness of a PdC_x layer surrounding the nanoparticles while producing CO and CO_2. Scanning electron microscopy before and after the measurement revealed the for
The focus of this project was to investigate possible daily and yearly patterns in black carbon emissions throughout Europe based on both actual data obtained from 2018 to 2019 and a transport model created to identify the sources of said black carbon. Previous work with the data had shown large gaps between the observed and predicted values, and our hope was to identify cyclical or seasonal patte
The development of plant-based foods has increased interest in sustainable and natural protein-based emulsifiers that may partially replace conventional/synthetic emulsifying ingredients. Rapeseed press cake is an underutilized protein rich side stream from oil production with potential for valorization as a functional food ingredient. This study evaluated the emulsifying properties of protein fra
Tetra Pak is a world leading food processing and packaging company. Their manufacturing operations often rely on specialized and highly customized equipment. While the purchasing volumes for such equipment are typically low and irregular, the equipment itself is critical for operational continuity. This creates situations of asymmetric dependence where supplier bankruptcy, product discontinuation,
Denna studie undersökte hur längden på videor på sociala medier och videornas innehållstyp influerade arbetsminne och inhibering. Totalt deltog 40 deltagare i åldern 20-44 år, vilka delades in i fyra grupper. Deltagarna fick se antingen en TikTok-spellista med ett flertal korta videor eller en längre YouTube-video, vilka innehöll informativt eller icke-informativt innehåll. Före och efter visningeThis study investigated how the length of social media videos and content type influenced working memory and inhibition. A total of 40 participants aged 20-44 years were assigned to four different groups. They watched either a TikTok playlist with several short-form videos or a longer YouTube video containing informative or noninformative content. Before and after the viewing session, the particip
The global decline of seagrass meadows has increased the need for effective restoration strategies, yet recovery is often limited by physical environmental stressors. This thesis investigates the hydrodynamic thresholds influencing seagrass seedling survival and recruitment along the Adelaide coastline in Gulf St. Vincent, South Australia. The study focuses on two sites with similar environmental

I denna kandidatuppsats har en diskursanalys genomförts av Valdajklubbens årsrapport för 2025, ”Doktor Kaos”. Mot bakgrund av klubbens internationella profil och nära kopplingar till Kreml har syftet varit att undersöka rapportens grad av oberoende i en tid av intensiv rysk utrikespåverkan i Europa. Studiens teoretiska ingångar har varit konstruktivism, strategisk kaosteori och rysk nykonservatism
Early-stage ventures are structurally exposed. Without established legitimacy or track records, entrepreneurs depend heavily on Entrepreneurial Support Organisations (ESOs) for resources, networks, and the kind of validation that makes continued building feel possible. Yet how that support is actually experienced, and what happens when it falls short, remains poorly understood. This study examines
