Polisen i Sverige har fått tillsatt målet av regeringen om att ha 26 200 anställda poliser till årsskiftet 2024/2025, tusentals mer än antalet verksamma poliser i dagsläget. Poliser väljer av olika anledningar att sluta i förtid eller säga upp sig, främst på grund av lön och organisationskulturen. Det finns olika teorier om kallelse till yrke och hur uppfattningen framkommit, men ett genomgående t

This study investigates the effects of violating deontic constraints on the Japanese conditional markers to and ba. Via an online survey, native speakers reviewed sentences containing violations of these constraints, evaluating their own ability to understand the sentence and the proficiency of the sentences’ authors. Additionally, they were asked to correct sentences they rated poorly, and determ

I takt med förändringar i klimatet ställs högre krav på hur motståndskraftiga våra städer behöver vara, i en framtid med fler extrema väderhändelser. Vi bor allt tätare och i alltmer komplicerade städer, där flertalet samhällsfunktioner behöver fungera samtidigt. En del i arbetet är att skapa vattenhanteringssystem som klarar av plötsliga stora mängder nederbörd och kan skydda stadens invånare frå

Den ökande globala temperaturen och dess förödande irreversibla effekter på jordens ekosystem är en av mänsklighetens största utmaningar. Den största bidragande faktorn till temperaturökningen är våra ökande utsläpp av växthusgaser, såsom koldioxid, och andra föroreningar. Metrologiska världsorganisationen har estimerat att vi kommer accelerera förbi en temperaturökning på 3 °C år 2100, om vi fortGlobal levels of carbon emissions are constantly rising causing irreversible damages to ecosystems. The heavy transport sector and the industrial sector are responsible for large amounts of the emissions on a yearly basis. Therefore, Power-to-X is presented as an alternative pathway for the production of industry standard chemical, in view of a green transition towards decarbonising emission-heavy

This study examines the beginnings of Hamburg’s institutional transformation from a predominantly Hanseatic-style city to a Northern European financial and economic center. Existing literature has repeatedly pointed out the importance of migrants in the diffusion of economic institutions in the early modern period. In Hamburg’s case, commercially-minded migrants from Western Europe came to Hamburg

This thesis investigated if a human or a robot narrator affected listeners’ comprehension and memory recollection similarly in a narrative story. 103 participants (MeanAge = 35) were recruited to an online experiment to investigate if gestures affected the participants’ narrative comprehension and recollection more than a narrator that did not produce gestures. Participants were presented with the

As a relatively new phenomenon, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has already proven itself to carry the ability to transform modern-day society. With increased AI use becoming more and more prevalent, both its benefits and potential consequences come to light. Companies wishing to reap the benefits AI can offer also need to consider the possible risks associated with its adoption. Many companies decid

This thesis analyses if investors price a country’s environmental (E) performance into sovereign bond yields. The sample consists of 17 emerging countries from 2011 to 2020. Environmental performance is measured by aggregating 12 metrics from World Bank’s Environmental, Social & Governance database to a single index using principal component analysis. The panel data model combines the E index

The aim of this study was to deepen the understanding of how community-based water management approaches facilitate sustainable and collective action (SCA) in the context of increasing water insecurity in Costa Rica. Applying a qualitative approach, based on fieldwork in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, including semi-structured interviews and a digital community survey, the study uncovers facilitating fac

The Clip model was a major breakthrough in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) when it was introduced by OpenAI in January 2021. The Clip (Contrastive Language-Image Pre- Training) model is a neural network model that can understand both text and images, enabling it to perform tasks such as image classification and captioning, as well as natural language processing tasks. The Clip model can

Sustainable development requires collaboration between governments, businesses, and citizens. However, economic models, sustainability practices, and global policies are currently not fit-for-purpose to maintain global temperatures to 1.5 degrees centigrade within the timescales required to maintain a safe space for humanity to thrive. This study maps the alignment of business values and practices

This thesis is an ethnographic exploration of Swedish sauna practices as experienced by international students at Lund University. The research objective is to navigate experiences of belonging and community formation that occur in the sauna, but also highlights how experiences of outsiderness and exclusion come to the fore in this highly sensorial environment.

De två Natura-2000 områdena Ravlunda och Revingehed i Skåne, södra Sverige, har genomgått en klimatkänslighetsanalys i denna studie som testade en utvärderingsmetod för relevans att använda inom Länsstyrelsen i Skånes arbete. Analysen gjordes med fokus på ekosystemtjänster identifierad för sanddominerade habitat på de två områdena. Genom användning av en nyligen publicerad report från NaturvårdsveThe two Natura-2000 areas of Ravlunda and Revingehed of Skåne, southern Sweden, have been subject to a climate change vulnerability assessment in this study, which tested an assessment method for relevance for work within the County Administrative Board of Skåne. The analysis was done with focus on ecosystem services found at the sand dominated habitats of the two areas. Using a recently published

Vissa personer skiljer mycket mellan sina känslor, de rapporterar att de känner ilska, frustration, ledsamhet och nedstämdhet, medan andra personer inte skiljer särskilt mycket mellan sina känslor, de rapporterar att de mår bra eller att de mår dåligt. Förmågan att skilja mellan sina känslor kallas emotionell granularitet (EG). Tidigare forskning har kopplat ihop EG med bättre psykisk hälsa och stSome people differentiate a great deal between their emotional experiences, they report experiencing grief, sadness, frustration, anger etc. Other people seem to differentiate between their emotional experiences less, they report feeling good or bad. The ability to differentiate between emotions is called emotional granularity (EG). Previous studies have linked EG to higher psychological well-bein

This thesis explores expressions of anger in Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë and Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. Firstly, a brief survey of how anger has been interpreted by philosophers, theologians, doctors and scientists allows for better understanding of how anger has been conceptualised in the past. Secondly, contextual information specifically about nineteenth-century beliefs and practices

To investigate the differences in experienced stress and how this was moderated by the personality factors of work locus of control (WLOC) and extraversion between open plan-offices and activity based-offices (ABW), a questionnaire was sent out to the employees of nine different offices. 171 participants answered the questionnaire which consisted of five scales that measured perceived stress, dist
