Vad har Sense of Belonging för betydelse på arbetsplatser? Studier på Belonging är omfattande och har visat sig ha många positiva effekter, trots detta har det länge funnits en lucka inom studier på vad Belonging har för inverkan på just arbetsplatser. Syftet för denna studie var att undersöka Sense of Belonging och dess potentiella påverkan på Organizational Identification (OID), Self-Efficacy ocWhat significance does Sense of Belonging hold in workplaces? Studies on Belonging are extensive and have revealed numerous positive effects. Despite this, there has long been a gap in the research focusing on the impact of Belonging in the workplace. The aim of this study was to investigate Sense of Belonging and its potential influence on Organizational Identification (OID), Self-Efficacy, and w

The Hawkes process, also referred to as a self-exciting point process, is a class of point processes where the intensity is conditioned on previous events. More specifically, an event occurrence excites the process, temporarily increasing the probability of more events occurring. One application of Hawkes processes is to model occurrences of crimes, such as burglaries or shootings. The present the

This paper examines weather the increased dept in Swedish households has an impact on the Swedish exchange rate. A hypothesis is formulated based on several empirical studies, which claims that the Swedish banks use market financing in foreign currency to cover Swedish house loans. By using data from the period 2002 to 2022 on the Swedish exchange rate index and data from the largest banks in Swed

The phenomenon of global framework agreements has emerged through the difficulties of regulating the global labour market where the multinational enterprises' operations have been driven by an economic agenda and profit. The challenges of creating transnational legislation have brought social actors, such as the United Nations and the International Labour Organisation, to initiate self-regulat

Our thesis aimed to investigate how the Swedish district courts and appellate courts present arguments for visitation rights while safeguarding children's rights in custody cases involving instances of violence. The analysis and concluding discussion focused on three research questions: How do the district courts and appellate courts argue on visitation rights in custody cases involving instan

This study’s purpose was to examine how 3 female managers subjectively thought about and related to femininity in relation to their leadership role. The emphasis was put on how the respondent viewed perceptions about leadership as a socially constructed concept, upon gender norms and a traditionally masculine leadership stereotype, and if, and how, they themselves consider this to have affected th

Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa står för nästan hälften av sjukfrånvaron i Sverige, varav de flesta fall beror på stressrelaterad ohälsa. Arbetsterapeutiska interventioner är ett alternativ för individer med stressrelaterad ohälsa då de kan vara i behov av förändringar som kan främja en god aktivitetsbalans. Syfte: Undersöka arbetsterapeutiska interventioner inom primärvården för vuxna individer med strBackground: Mental illness accounts for almost half of sickness absence in Sweden, of which most cases are due to stress-related illness. Occupational therapy interventions are an option for individuals with stress-related illness as they may be in need of changes that can promote a good activity balance. Aim: To explore the effects of occupational therapy interventions in primary care for adults

The purpose of this study was to gain an increased understanding of how adult children describe stigmatizing experiences from their childhood. This is in terms of the strategies they employed to handle stigma, and how these strategies could be perceived from an adult’s point of view. The research questions: "How do the authors portray strategies from childhood for handling stigmatization abou

The consultation process in Swedish planning provides an opportunity for citizens to participate in the planning process. Yet the influence of the citizens is varied and their ability to interact with the planners and the developer can sometimes be problematic. Using Haberma’s theory of communicative action, this study analyzes the interactions between the planners, contractors and citizens in the

This study aimed to examine the presence of self-medication and in Swedish autobiographies, the understanding of the self-medication process. A narrated qualitative research method, with a content analysis of the autobiographies, was used to investigate the authors' descriptions of their drug and/or alcohol addiction and life story. The self-medication hypothesis and the learning model were ap

This paper examines the effect of the recurrent tax on immovable property on wealth distribution. It also investigates how the wealth distributive effect of property prices is affected by the homeownership rate in a country. Data on the mean to median wealth ratio, tax sizes, property prices, homeownership rate, and economic freedom of 36 OECD member countries over the years 2000-2021 are used to

De arbetsområden där chefer och HR delar ansvar och behöver samarbeta är många. Detta beror i huvudsak på att både chefer och HR besitter personalansvar, där HR:s roll primärt är att stötta chefer i deras arbete på olika sätt. Det har nyligen pågått en debatt kring förväntningarna på HR:s ansvarsområden där det råder delade meningar kring vilken funktion HR bör fylla i organisationer, som legat so

Att gårdsförsäljning av alkoholdrycker ska bli en verklighet i Sverige är något som många vill se. För att gårdsförsäljningen ska kunna existera vid sidan om det svenska alkoholmonopolet krävs att den är förenlig med rådande EU-rätt. Centralt för den EU-rättsliga regleringen är upprätthållandet av en inre marknad där det råder fri rörlighet för varor. Artikel 37 i Fördraget om Europeiska unionens On-farm sales of alcoholic beverages becoming a reality in Sweden many wish to see. For on-farm sales to coexist with the Swedish alcohol monopoly, compatibility with current EU law is required. Central to EU legal regulation is the maintenance of an internal market with the free movement of goods. Article 37 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) regulates state trading mon

Bakgrund: Människor använder sina händer i de flesta aktiviteter för att exempelvis kommunicera, undersöka med känsel och utföra finmotoriska rörelser. Handen spelar därför en viktig roll i vardagen. En handskada kan resultera i stora problem att utföra vitala aktiviteter. Rehabilitering efter en handskada innefattar att gradvis använda den skadade handen i vardagen igen och därför behövs åtgärderBackground: People use their hands often in most daily activities to for example communicate, explore with touch and perform fine motor movements. The hand is therefore an important part of daily living. A hand injury can result in problems performing vital activities. Rehabilitation after a hand injury includes gradual use of the injured hand in daily living again and thus there is a need for st

In this thesis we discuss a potential problem of negative correlation arising when using ordinary statistical methods on compositional data. We discuss a less known statistical method, compositional data analysis, that stands on the pillars of the works of John Aitchison from the 1980-s and Pawlowsky-Glahn, Egozcue and Delgado from the 2015. Using results from the 2022 national parliament election

Administration av T-celler via en artificiell vävnadsrekonstruktion är en lovande metod för att behandla inoperabla tumörer. Traditionella vävnadsrekonstruktionsmaterial saknar den komplexitet som finns hos det extracellulära matrixet (ECM), där celler vanligtvis lever. Ett alternativ är då att använda decellulariserat ECM (dECM) som material när man skapar den artificiella vävnadsrekonstruktionenT-cell administration via a scaffold is a promising tool for treatment of inoperable solid tumours. Traditional scaffold materials lack the complexity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that cells normally grow in. An alternative is to instead use decellularised ECM (dECM) from biological tissue to create the scaffold. By making the scaffold via 3D-printing, its construction can also be a part of m

I den här uppsatsen riktar jag min uppmärksamhet på specialistundersköterskekompetensutbildningen och vilka effekter den i första hand har för de deltagande undersköterskor som genomförde utbildningen. Jag analyserar även specialistundersköterskornas interaktioner med ledare och grupp, samt ledarens funktion i processen. Mina intressen utifrån ett HR perspektiv, är att se på effekter även för orga

Vi lever i en värld där artificiell intelligens inte är bortom räckhåll i science fiction- filmer, utan en del av vår vardag i allt större utsträckning. Tekniken utvecklas drastiskt och juridiken hänger inte med. På grund av den stora påverkan som artificiell intelligens har på EU medborgares liv och de risker som tekniken hotar med, pågår nu ett förfarande för en rättsakt om harmoniserade regler We live in a world where artificial intelligence is not beyond reach in science fiction-movies, but rather a part of our daily life. The technology is drastically developing and the world of law cannot follow. Due to the big impact that artificial intelligence has on EU citizens, and the risks that may threaten, there is an ongoing procedure regarding harmonized rules on AI. The initiative has a p

Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka om takvolym är analogt tillämpligt på dynamiska inköpssystem. De senaste åren har prejudikat förändrat synen på vad som maximalt kan avropas inom ett ramavtal. Det skapar följdfrågor om takvolym kan tillämpas analogt på dynamiska inköpssystem, vilket är uppsatsens huvudsakliga fråga. Uppsatsen kommer att börja med att introducera upphandling i stora drThe purpose of this essay is to investigate the possibility of applying “ceiling volume” onto a dynamic purchasing system. Ceiling volume means the requirement to specify a maximum volume of supplies or services. In recent years legal cases have changed the view of the maximum volume that can be awarded during a given period within a framework agreement. A question has now been raised as to whethe

Previous reports and studies have found that gender, socioeconomic status, migration background and education are important factors in explaining reading amongst young people. A previous report from the Swedish Agency for Youth and Civil Society indicate that there are differences in reading depending on gender and birth country using confidence intervals. However, the report indicated that living
