Tidigare forskning belyser den ökade användningen av big data och dess påverkan på konsumenters integritet, attityder och inställningar, vilket generellt visar en negativ syn på insamling av personlig data. Denna studie undersöker hur konsumenter agerar och påverkas av datainsamling och cookies i riktad marknadsföring. Genom en kvantitativ metod har konsumenters attityder, val och beteende analyse
Dry reforming of methane (DRM) is a promising method for carbon dioxide utilization and hydrogen production, converting CO2 and CH4 into syngas (H2 and CO) using catalysts. Despite its potential, industrial implementation has yet to prevail due to challenges in loss of activity of the catalyst. Carbon deposition (coking) and catalyst particle agglomeration (sintering) occurring during the DRM reac
This thesis investigates the outcomes of economic divergence during the neoliberal period in Guatemala and Costa Rica (1985-2020). The application of social capabilities: transformation, autonomy, inclusion and accountability allowed us not only to show the diverted social and economic paths, but also to inspect further and delve into the complex social dynamics in place. There was significant pro
Syfte: Studiens syfte var att jämföra bedömningsinstrumentet Bayley-4 med Nya Reynell genom användning på barn i åldern 30–42 månader för att undersöka om de fångar upp samma aspekter av språklig förmåga. Vidare var studiens syfte att undersöka om Bayley-4 kan vara lämpligt att använda på logopedmottagningar. Metod: Deltagare bestod av fem barn inom åldersspannet. Barnen kom från två olika försko
Novel circuit design and manufacturing methodologies are emerging into the market. Heterogeneous Integration allows for chiplet technologies of different process nodes to be combined in one large package. To allow for seamless communication between them, a definition of standards is necessary, and so is the construction of interconnects that follow them. In this thesis, we present an offload engin
Designing tools and equipment for extreme environments presents unique challenges and opportunities for innovation. This master thesis explores the integration of advanced technologies and user-centered design principles to address the specific needs of scientists and explorers operating in harsh conditions. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and expert interviews, including ins
As digital platforms play an increasingly significant role in the global economy, anti-monopoly identification and regulation face new challenges, particularly concerning the abuse of dominant position by digital platforms. This thesis analyzes the characteristics of platforms, including their multi- sided market nature, scale effects, and lock-in effects, highlighting how these factors complicate
This study explores the impact of local Swedish educational experiences on the integration of Syrian migrants who continued their studies after arriving in Sweden. Through a qualitative research methodology, including in-depth interviews, the study examines how language acquisition, cultural adaptation, economic integration, and a sense of belonging contribute to the overall integration process. T
Skogen spelar en viktig roll för den globala biologiska mångfalden, klimatet och är kopplade till urfolks kulturella överlevnad. Samernas traditionella rennäring är beroende av skogens ekosystem. Expansionen av kommersiellt skogsbruk i Sverige har dock lett till betydande konflikter om markanvändning, där samernas rättigheter ofta nedprioriteras till förmån för andra ekonomiska intressen. Denna uForests are vital for global biodiversity, environmental sustainability and are intrinsically linked to the cultural survival of Indigenous peoples. The Sámi traditional reindeer herding practices depend on forest ecosystems. However, the expansion of commercial forestry in Sweden has led to significant conflicts over land use, with the Sámi people’s rights frequently being de-prioritised in favou
Since the start of the Arab Spring in 2010, the Middle East has changed drastically. As a result, global and regional powers have turned to the most vulnerable countries, including Syria and Yemen. Saudi Arabia, a regional power, has been actively involved in both the civil wars of Syria and Yemen. This study focuses on the Saudi foreign policy discourse vis-à-vis two cases, Syria and Yemen. Since
This thesis is a social study of “artistic research”, a field of activity that has emerged from the world of art, where the process of artistic creation is simultaneously seen as a process of knowledge production. The research problem motivating the thesis is that artistic research overturns conventional understandings of art and research as two opposing entities by actively combining the two. In
In this thesis I examine the view on nature and the view of man in relation to nature, from the two perspectives of the bishops of the Church of Sweden and the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. I do this based on Cecilie Rubow's theory of three ecologies. This theory, which is also my method, criticizes Christian anthropocentrism in light of the climate crisis. Rubow argues that western theol
Prayer has its origin in the Bible and as a practise it serves a lot of purposes. One of these is to convey the teachings of the church, which takes the form of liturgical prayer in a worship service. The two liberation prayers within the baptismal liturgy of the Swedish church, convey the teachings of the church on original sin, and the thesis of this essay is that the two choices provided for th
This study aims to identify the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly retrofit solutions for enhancing the energy efficiency of second homes in Sweden. Second homes, often used intermittently throughout the year, represent a significant portion of residential energy use and carbon emissions. Therefore, optimizing energy consumption in these homes is critical for achieving national and g
This thesis explores the impact of cardiac implants, specifically pacemakers and ICDs, on individuals' lives and the factors influencing this experience. Through interviews with 11 individuals living with these implants and observational research, the study highlights how cardiac implants affect bodily awareness, self-perception and social relations. The findings reveal that a life after the o
This study investigates the experiences of individuals who have left a criminal lifestyle and the factors influencing their journey. Through interviews with both individuals active in a criminal lifestyle and those who have successfully transitioned to a law-abiding life, this research explores the motivations for leaving a criminal lifestyle and the challenges faced during this process. Key findi
The purpose of this research was to examine existing governance arrangements within the Australian federal public service and possible improvements for managing systemic risks at a national level. While there has been greater attention and discussion on systemic risks recently, research on how to govern systemic risk remains in its infancy. Where systemic risk governance is discussed, it is genera
