Att arbeta med motivation kan förstås ha en påverkan på både medarbetarnas produktivitet och mående. Trots de fördelar motivation kan ge har forskningen framför allt fokuserat på hur man arbetar med motivation inom kunskapsintensiva yrken och ett underskott av kunskap har skapats kring arbetsintensiva yrken. Att arbeta inom ett arbetsintensivt yrke kan ur många aspekter förstås som utmanande. Utöv
Higgs boson decay to bottom, anti-bottom quarks is the major decay channel due to the fact that these quarks have a relatively high mass and the Higgs coupling to a particle is proportional to its mass. This process is difficult to detect experimentally because of the jets produced by the quarks. In computations of this decay at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO), there is a specific term which
This study aims to explore the experiences women face due to the criminalisation of abortions in the United States. It presents a thematic analysis of the criminalisation of abortion through a feminist framework, examining its profound implications on women's lives. Utilizing secondary data from social media platforms and news outlets, this research will also employ netnography and ethnography
Inom paleoekologi studeras fossila ekosystem och hur dessa påverkats av klimat- och habitatförändringar, vilket även kan kopplas till nutida och framtida ekosystemsförändringar. Paleoekologi är en disciplin inom geologi, vilket gör att paleoekologisk kunskap inte alltid utnyttjas till sin fulla potential inom bland annat bevarandebiologi och naturvård. Detta beror främst på en bristande förståelse
In this master's thesis, my main objective is to broaden the understanding of early Franciscan spirituality. I achieve this by utilizing the sermons of Anthony of Padua as a source. By studying his sermons, we gain a deeper understanding of his thoughts. The research question of the thesis is: What is Anthony's perspective on poverty and wisdom based on his sermons? These two aspects of An
Entrepreneurial marketing has proven to be important for a brand's survival in a fiercely competitive market. A well-communicated brand identity contributes to positive brand awareness, brand attitudes and legitimacy, which are important elements for a successful brand. There are some communication strategies for well-established companies, but to our knowledge, there is a lack of research on
Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka vad som får svenska pensionärer att migrera till Costa del Sol och hur det påverkar deras uppfattning om deras existentiella hälsa som uttryckt i mening-i-livet, sammanhang och tillit. Uppsatsen bygger på ett två veckor långt fältarbete, med observationer, samtal och ett kort frågeformulär. Den övergripande forskningsfrågan är hur migrationen har påvThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate what makes Swedish retirees migrate to Costa del Sol and how it affects their perception of their Existential Health as expressed in Meaning-in-life, Coherence and Trust, building on a two-week fieldwork, with observations, free conversations, and a short questionnaire. The overall research question is how the migration has influenced retiree’s percepti
The healthcare sector, responsible for 5% of the world's carbon emissions, is at a critical juncture in adopting sustainable practices, particularly through the adoption of circular economy practices. This thesis examines the adaptation of circular economy practices by Swedish MedTech companies, aligning with the European Commission's Circular Economy Action Plan which supports the EU’s cl
Mot bakgrund av dagens gängkriminalitet har visitationszoner lyfts fram som ett verktyg för att motarbeta våldsutvecklingen i Sverige. Från flera håll har däremot oro uttryckts om att metoden kan vara kontraproduktiv. Eftersom det finns en brist på forskning på området ämnar studien därför att undersöka några svenska polisers uppfattning kring implementeringen av visitationszoner i Sverige. Vidare
I den här uppsatsen presenteras hur skrivande och skrivprocessen skildras genom metaforer. Fokus ligger på att kartlägga vilka metaforer som används för att beskriva skrivande, om det finns några mönster i användningen och om det finns skillnader i vilka metaforer som används beroende på vilken typ av skrivande det skrivs om. Materialet består av fyra skrivhandböcker som används som kurslitteratur
The phenomenon of hybrid work, combining remote and on-site work, has gained popularity in recent years following the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift has introduced new dynamics in the workplace, calling for a reevaluation of leadership practices in order to address the challenges and opportunities hybrid work brings. Despite the growing usage of hybrid work models, there is limited research on the
General Purpose Graphics Processing Units (GPGPUs) have become the prevalent processor for AI/ML and other large computational problems because parallel processing has not reached a hardware limit, unlike single-threaded processing. The goal of the thesis is to investigate the suitability of a novel SRAM architecture for implementation in a GPU without extensive GPU architecture changes. This arch
This thesis focuses on images produced by Generative Artificial Intelligence and poses questions around biases and implication of these. With the emergence of AI image creation programs, the complexity of representation is brought to the surface. The main material in this thesis consists of AI-generated images and the material will be analyzed with a semiotic framework through the lens of cultural
This thesis integrates Actor-Network Theory (ANT) and Tim Ingold's concepts of "dwelling" and "making" based on my cultural analysis conducted at the Museum of Memory on Hands in Guiyang, China, during both the summer and winter, for one month each season. The study primarily explores the museum’s vision of "All things in symbiosis, life can perpetuate" is manifes
The aim of this study was to explore how professionals working with the evidence-based method Individual Placement and Support (IPS) reason regarding its utilization for a broader target audience than the method originally intended. Additionally, we sought to enhance the understanding of how and why an evidence-based method is modified and adapted when applied in a new setting and for a different
Disasters exacerbate pre-existing gender inequalities, rendering women vulnerable to various forms of harm. Nevertheless, women are not victims to be protected by men; rather, they play a significant role in post-disaster recovery. Previous studies in Türkiye’s context revealed a lack of gender lens in disaster response and management. This thesis investigates the gendered experiences of women in
This research examines the impact of digitalization on Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) and its broader influence on supply chain performance. By adopting digital technologies, companies can streamline decision-making processes, reduce manual efforts, and enhance operational efficiency. The study aims to address the insufficient understanding of how the integration of digital technologies
This research addresses human error and the process standard EN 50126 Railway Applications - The Specification and Demonstration of Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety (RAMS). In Norway, it is required by The Railway Infrastructure Regulations to use the standard for new construction or changes to subsystems in the infrastructure. The standard is a harmonized standard which mean
