Syftet med studien är att undersöka ifall innovation output påverkar kapitalstrukturen på publika svenska bolag samt att förstå ifall effekten skiljer sig mellan OMXS och First North. Studien följer en deduktiv ansats, och kvantitativ data används för att genomföra två multipel regressioner. Resultat från regressionerna analyseras utifrån relevanta teoretiska ramverk. Slutsatsen är att Innovation The purpose of this study is to determine if innovation output influences the capital structure of Swedish listed companies and to understand if the effect is different on OMXS and First North. The study follows a deductive approach, and quantitative data is used to conduct two multiple regression analyses. The results from the regressions are analyzed based on the relevant theoretical frameworks.

In the mountainous regions of Bhutan and Nepal, post-harvest losses cause significant challenges for producers. Open air sun drying is usually used by farmers to preserve their produce. There are many disadvantages to this method. The Swedish Research Council is supporting a project called Solar Food: Reducing Post-Harvest Losses Through Improved Solar Drying, which aims to create a low-cost solar

This study aims to investigate the repertoires of contention during the anti-COVID-19 policy protests that occurred in China from November 2022 to December 2022. These protests broke out after a fire accident in Urumqi, which resulted in the death of ten people. The protests took place in over twenty-four cities and two hundred universities across China. The analysis of the repertoires is based on

Jordgubbar som är odlade i Sverige är något som är väldigt eftertraktat under sommarhalvåret. Men det vi inte tänker på är att de ofta är besprutade med någon typ av växtskyddsmedel. Växtskyddsmedsmedel medför en negativ påverkan på pollinatörerna som är viktiga för att få en bra skörd och kvalité på bären. I denna studie undersöktes hur pollinatörer påverkas av växtskyddsmedel som används på de sThis study investigated how pollinators are affected by plant protection products (PPP), what type of PPPs strawberry farmers used and what knowledge they had about these products. To investigate this, a literature review and a survey was conducted. The questionnaire was sent to 70 Swedish strawberry farmers of which 11% participated in the study. The results of the survey shows that all (6) straw

For the fourth year in a row, Poland continues to rank as the lowest country of the European Union on the yearly report on the legal and political situation of queer people in Europe. With constant negative media portrayal of queer communities and homophobic remarks from politicians, Polish queer individuals become antagonized and stigmatized by the society. This thesis aims to explore the less re

I dagens snabbt föränderliga samhälle har teknologins inflytande djupt förvandlat olika aspekter av människors liv och medför både stora möjligheter och kritiska säkerhetsutmaningar. För att minska riskerna för dataintrång, skadliga attacker och övergripande cybersäkerhetshot vidtar företag proaktiva åtgärder genom att erbjuda utbildning och träning till sina anställda inom områdena cybersäkerhet In today's rapidly evolving society, the pervasive influence of technology has profoundly transformed various aspects of human life, presenting both unprecedented opportunities and critical security challenges. To mitigate the risks of data breaches, malicious attacks, and overall cyber threats, companies have taken proactive measures by providing education and training to their employees in t

In this thesis, a Glauber Monte-Carlo event generator is developed and used to analyze proton-Ion (p -$^{63}$Cu and p -$^{197}$Au) and Ion-Ion ($^{63}$Cu -$^{63}$Cu and $^{197}$Au -$^{197}$Au) collisions. Three different sub-collision models are implemented, the black disk, grey disk and oscillating grey disk models, and their validity is compared. The predicted nucleon-nucleon cross-sections by t

On the 19 of October 2004 two people in Linköping, Sweden were murdered. Police secured DNA from the perpetrator, however it could not further the investigation since the DNA was not in the police registry. The case remained cold until 2020 when a new method of ancestral DNA was used, referred to as IGG. The method was previously tested in the USA and solved plenty of cold cases. The double homici

An increasing amount of youths in the municipality of Lund have communicated experiences with sexual exploitation, according to the municipal organization Fältgruppen. The aim of this paper is therefore to map the occurrence of sexual exploitation amongst 15 to 20 year olds in the municipality of Lund. To achieve this, a quantitative survey was carried out which was distributed to the target group

It is shown that the behavior of an m-port circuit of maximal monotone elements can be expressed as a zero of the sum of a maximal monotone operator containing the circuit elements, and a structured skew-symmetric linear operator representing the interconnection structure, together with a linear output transformation. The Condat–Vũ algorithm solves inclusion problems of this form, and may be used

The urgent need to mitigate climate change has prompted researchers to investigate novel strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. One promising technology that might ease the way for sustainable and circular economies is carbon capture and utilization (CCU), which not only captures CO2 emissions but also uses them to produce valuable products. This thesis investigates the potential of CCU in

Cross-cultural studies have found national differences in how concerned people are about online privacy. However, it has not yet been settled what causes this variation, and several factors have been proposed in the literature, including internet habituation, individualism, and uncertainty avoidance. Here we investigate these factors by two studies. In the first, we examine the association between

The management of archaeological excavation data has been the subject of scientific debate in the last decades: critical elements have been identified, such as maintaining analytical data and the derived knowledge entangled, and other relevant aspects, like data curation, accessibility, and long-term preservation, have emerged. This study describes, illustrates, and evaluates the use of the Archae

Since coming into force the International Criminal Court, has been challenged with a series of issues. Criticism, especially, from African states has forwarded the underlying anxieties that riddles this relatively new institution of international criminal justice. More specifically, African states and the regional organ, the African Union, have denounced the Courts functioning on the continent - s

This thesis focuses on the practice of sex for compensation performed by women with transgender and asylum experiences living in Sweden. It aims to explore the complexities of sex for compensation by positioning this practice as both strategy and a tactic for obtaining income used for gender affirmation, considering that gender-affirmative healthcare is not available for asylum seekers in Sweden.
