I den här kandidatuppsatsen utforskas peritexten på 19 humanvetenskapliga avhandlingar ur ett retoriskt perspektiv. Hur förmedlar bokomslaget genretillhörighet, information om verkets innehåll, om möjlig läsupplevelse och målgrupp? Analysen är hermeneutiskt grundad, och det teoretiska och metodologiska ramverket utgörs av prototypteori, stilistik, paratext enligt Gérard Genette, samt analys av vis

Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka betydelsen av vårdhundar för personer med demenssjukdom. Metod: En litteraturstudie med induktiv ansats som innefattar tio vetenskapliga artiklar av både kvantitativ och kvalitativ metod. Materialet har analyserats genom en integrerad analys. Resultat: Litteraturstudiens resultat visar att intervention med vårdhund kan bidra till ökad livskvalitet samt välbefinnan

Water hardness is caused by magnesium and calcium ions (Mg2+ and Ca2+), and can result in formation of deposits, destruction of soap and increase of copper corrosion in old plumbing pipes. To soften the originally hard groundwater supplying 20% of Malmö’s drinking water, Bulltofta water treatment plant imports burned lime from Germany. Approximately 66 mg/L calcium is removed in the treatment plan

Forskningen har hittills visat på spridda resultat över hur Social Networking Sites (SNS) och psykisk ohälsa hänger samman. Det har inom fältet efterfrågats studier med experimentell design, således var syftet med aktuell studie att experimentellt undersöka kvalitet och kvantitet av SNS-användande och dess kausala samband med depression, ångest, stress, självkänsla, upplevd ensamhet, medveten närvResearch has shown ambiguous results regarding the associations between Social Networking Sites (SNS) and mental health. Experimental studies have been requested, hence the purpose of the current study was to investigate quality and quantity of SNS usage and its causal relationships with depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, perceived loneliness, mindfulness, acting with awareness, life satisf

In this degree project it is discussed how to design an alpine navigation device for experienced to expert users to reduce cognitive load of orienting, locating, and navigating. You Are Here explores the state of navigating in alpine environments with digital and analog devices through user-centric research. Listening to professionals and journey mapping device interactions reveals the need for a

This thesis analyses the effect of the prevalence of family planning on the three dimensions of the Human Development Index (HDI) in low income countries. The sample consists of 75 countries with annual data from 1990-2018. Empirics indicate that falling fertility rates, due to increased availability and use of family planning, should increase GNI per capita, education and health. The outputs from

The aim of this thesis is to investigate and evaluate the use of escape filters during the construction phase of tunnels and mines. To achieve this aim three main research methods were used. Firstly, a literature review was produced to evaluate the current research about escape filters and fire safety during the construction phase of tunnels and mines. Secondly, interviews were conducted to find r

In recent years, the issue of the climate has aroused exponentially increasing interest and it is a common priority on the political agenda worldwide. The European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is the first and largest international system of trading with carbon emissions and it is sometimes described as the cornerstone in EU climate policy to combat climate change with its main objectiv

I denna uppsats behandlas begreppet ”väsentlig anknytning” i ljuset av anknytningsfaktorerna bostad, familj och ekonomiskt engagemang. Förhoppningen med uppsatsen har varit att klargöra när en person anses ha väsentlig anknytning till Sverige efter utflyttning och försöka klargöra hur praxis utvecklats. Sedan internationaliseringen slog igenom har det blivit vanligare och enklare att förflytta sigThe aim of this study was to investigate the meaning of “significant connection” in the light of the connecting factors housing, family and financial commitment. The hope with the thesis has been to clarify when a person is considered to have a significant connection to Sweden after moving out and try to clarify how the practice has developed. Since the breakthrough of internationalization, it has

Denna studie avsåg att undersöka förekomsten och fördelningen av psykologisk trygghet och affektivt engagemang hos kontorspersonal som arbetar i team. Vidare syftade denna studie till att undersöka till vilken grad variablerna samvarierar med varandra, samt gentemot olika demografiska faktorer. På grund av undersökningens tvärsnittsdesign kunde inga kausala samband fastställas. En digital enkät skThis study intended to examine the prevalence of psychological safety and affective commitment among white-collar workers who work in teams. Furthermore, the study intended to explore if the variables correlated with each other and in relation to demographic variables. Due to the cross-sectional design of the study, no causal relationships could be determined. A digital survey was sent out through

This study examines the change of Croatia’s imports and exports of goods with EU member states during the time period of 2000-2018. This includes when it signed the Stabilisation and Association Agreement with the European Union and after it became an EU member. This is done to give insight into what future member states and current EU candidate countries could potentially expect from their access

During the 17th and early 18th century Antonio Stradivari built around 900 violins, that still today are considered some of the best instruments ever created. The theories of how it was possible for a luthier active 300 years ago to create instruments of this quality are many, including unique wood properties and secret building techniques. The sound of a violin is produced by vibrations from the

This study explores the discourse on non-monogamy in a Swedish heterosexual context. Analysing how people speak about opening up monogamous relationships, the aim of this study is to investigate why monogamous relationships are conceived as problematic in the 21st century. By mapping out some underlying preconceptions concerning gender and concepts such as emancipation the study also aims to under

High energy particle collisions often produce large numbers of partons in the final state, which are clustered together in collimated sprays called jets. A recent paper [1] introduces the concept of jet entropy, which is an observable that quantifies the entanglement between the resolved and unresolved parts of a jet. We derive an analytic expression for the entropy of a gluon jet and compare the

När en utredare observerar en olycksplats är bevisen de kan hitta viktiga. Bevisen är det som gör att de kan återskapa hur olyckan hände och förstå vad som hände. Men om de inte förstår bevisen, eller använder dom för att återskapa olycksplatsen på fel sätt, kan svaret de får vara fel. Inom partikelfysik kolliderar vi atomkärnor med extrema energier för att se vilka hemligheter universum har. För The purpose of this thesis was to implement an alternative method to calculate the overlap function, which describe to what extent two protons overlap with each other spatially, into PYTHIA8 in order to determine how it affected the average number of multiparton interactions. The new overlap function is based on an explicit impact parameter picture, whereas PYTHIA8s overlap function uses an implic
