The field of Cognitive Psychology has discovered a large number of automatic and systematic errors of judgement that humans make. These are called cognitive biases and cause irrational behavior in diverse contexts. Prior research has found that cognitive biases can cause irrational behavior in companies. For example company functions, such as planning, have been found to suffer from systematic err
Syftet med detta projekt är att skapa förbättrade förutsättningar för Sandvik SRPs, i Svedala, resursplanering i centrallagret. Arbetet har utförts genom att kartlägga hur fyra företag utför deras resursplanering, samt analys av Sandviks historiska lageroch personaldata. Detta utmynnade i ett verktyg som Sandvik kommer använda vid framtida resursplaneringar och rekommendationer för hur man kan för
This thesis aims to answer the question of what quality of life is constituted of in a non-human context. Or differently put, ‘what is it that makes an animal's life worth living?’ In the procedure of reviewing this question other concepts and issues are addressed. One of these being the composite concept of 'animal welfare', mainly due to its popularity and frequent use in discussions
In order to halt current resource depletion and minimise environmental destruction, we need to reduce our dependency on virgin raw materials. There is a growing political consensus in the EU that we have to move away from our current linear economic system to one that is based on closing material loops, a circular economy. There is therefore a great need for new business models based on for exampl
This paper looks at changes in income, earnings and mortgage debt across Canada between 1976-2010. It looks at how changes in income, wealth and mortgage debt have affected groups of ‘younger Canadians’ and compares that group to ‘older Canadians’. Further looking at housing inequality during the period, it uses 238,608 observations across two Canadian national household surveys to provide an esti

Uppsatsen tar upp och beskriver både löv- och klockgroda och deras krav på habitat samt så beskrivs naturen och olika naturskyddade områden i Ystad kommun, generellt om hur olika naturskyddsområde skapas och generellt om dammar och våtmarker. Groddjuren är en viktig del i den biologiska mångfalden då de bland annat äter insekter och andra småkryp men också ingår i andra djurs näringskedja. MångfalThe thesis describes both broad leaf frog and fire bellied toad and their requirements for habitats. It also describes the nature and natural protected areas in Ystad Municipality and generally about how different conservation areas are created and generally about ponds and wetlands. Amphibians are an important part of biodiversity since they eat insects and other bugs. They are also important bec
The European Commission has acknowledged the lack of cross-border utilization of losses. Companies operating internationally want to have a possibility to offset losses against taxable profits at the same time or as soon as possible after the losses incurred. If no such possibility is at hand, a cash-flow disadvantage arises and also, it leads to segmentation of the internal market. The asymmetrie
In the aftermath of the terror attacks on New York in September 2001 several iniativies are set up to protect global supply chains from larger disruptions by antagonistic threats such as terrorism or piracy. Many security initiatives such as the International Ship and Port Security (ISPS) code, the Container Security Initiative (CSI) or the Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) are targeting the mari
New legislation involving emissions from internal combustion engines are pushing the manu-facturers to develop new technology faster than ever before with the amount of greenhouse gases. To meet the standards new concepts need to be developed with lower fuel consumption and emissions. This thesis covers the implementation of a couple of methods to achieve this. These concepts are DEP with fully va
Inledning: Sedan 1999 har uppgifter om behandlingsresultat förts in i det svenska kvalitetsregistret för läpp, käk och gomspalt (LKG). Syftet med denna studie var att utvärdera tillförlitligheten av taldata i registret. Metod: Inspelningar av 10 barn analyserades. Barnen hade vid 5 års ålder bedömts och registrerats i det svenska kvalitetsregistret för LKG av författaren mellan år 2006-2008. Förfa
Den första delen av arbetet gick ut på att ta fram och utvärdera en behandlingsmetod som kan användas för att på ett kontrollerbart sätt minska den specifika ytan på amorf silika med hög porositet. Den specifika ytan är en viktig egenskap för amorf silika när det kommer till dess applikationer som absorptions- och adsorptionsmaterial. Parametrarna som studerades var pordiameter, partikelstorlek, tA treatment method that can be used to controllably reduce the specific surface of amorphous silica with high porosity has been developed. The specific surface of amorphous silica is important for its adsorption and absorption applications. The parameters that were studied were the pore diameter, the particle size, the time of treatment, the temperature and the silica concentration. The reduction
The publishing industry is constantly faced with threats and predictions prophesying the end of the printed book and reading, however there is simultaneously the imminent promise of the digitalized literature.
