Objective: Previous research using personality traits to predict life outcomes has typically utilized the Big Five factors and, occasionally, their facets. However, recent research suggests that using items (reflecting personality nuances) can account for greater predictive variance. The present study examines the predictive validity of the different levels of the personality trait hierarchy (fact

Lithium-ion batteries (LiB) are witnessing an increasing demand for electric vehicles. It provides a sustainable energy storage solution that is more efficient and ecofriendly than the fossil fuels. However, LiB are prone to ageing, which changes the dynamics of the electrochemical reactions over time and usage, and consequently affects its life and performance.. Ageing can manifest through multip

Gender role conflict (GRC) was originally developed to evaluate men’s health in relation to perceived “masculinity”. In previous studies, GRC has been associated with poor mental health and low help-seeking behavior in men. In this study, we expanded on previous research and were able to demonstrate that also women and genderqueer individuals can display GRC. An aim was also to investigate any po

Led by the growth paradigm, the fashion sector finds itself in patterns of overproduction and overconsumption putting immense pressure on socio-ecological systems. To tackle this current system, the degrowth movement emerges as a plausible solution.

To seal a cable going into the chassis of a camera, a cable gasket is placed between the chassis and the gasket. This type of gasket is called a grommet. For this project, these grommets needed to be able to withstand a modular plug being pulled through and at the same time be as small as possible to fit into a small space. The purpose of this master thesis was to investigate how to make a grommet

När bokbranschen nu genomgår en förändring där digitala böcker blir allt mer populära är det viktigt för förlagen att veta hur användarbeteendet ser ut när det gäller de nya plattformarna. Hur går det egentligen till när ljudboksanvändare väljer ljudböcker? Den frågan ger den här undersökningen svar på genom att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar valet av ljudbok.

In times of limited resources, growing cities, and a changing world, weeding out outdated answers to new questions is a cardinal task of architecture. Especially in cities, the space is limited, and space does not equal space. Development in the outer parts with new infrastructure has vastly different consequences than densification on inner-city plots. In the case study city of Berlin, the popula

Since the inception of Hinduism some 3500-4300 years ago, religion has been at the forefront of human, cultural, and social development, but how influential has it been on economic growth during the past century? This study examines this intriguing question to find whether or not religion is as prominent in the prosperity and development of modern economies as it once was. Seven carefully selected

Det är ingen nyhet att stora delar av Sverige är täckt av skog. Det är också vår största export. I takt med ökade klimatförändringar vill man hitta mer hållbara energikällor, mer hållbara sätt att bygga, eller hållbara bränslekällor. För att klara denna utveckling har skogen en stor roll. Granbarkborren är en liten insekt som gilla att äta, bo och föröka sig i gran. Om det sker en stor storm och fThe forest industry has big problems with the bark beetle attacking trees. This results in that they must log the damaged trees, which leads to an economic loss. For a tree to be able to stand against a big populations of bark beetles, it needs to have a strong defence or be surrounded by other trees via associational resistance. Furthermore, natural enemies to the bark beetle can also act as a de
