User onboarding has become an increasingly important aspect in applications due to the shift towards the Software as a Service business model in software companies. This results in that companies need to make sure their customers are successful with the service, or they will loose customers. An effective user onboarding strategy can give the user a good start in becoming successful in the service.

This thesis examines if the amount of labour intensity within a sector changes the effect that the real effective exchange rate have on output. Fixed panel data regressions for Sweden, Norway and Denmark lend support to the hypothesis that labour intensive sectors’ output react more to changes in the real exchange rate than its less labour intensive counterparts. The regressions show that the labo

Academic research has tried to explain the challenges women in executive positions face in connection to work-life balance, glass ceiling and the gender gap in management. However, these previous studies have been made mainly quantitatively. Therefore, this study aims to go beyond the numbers by using a qualitative research approach. This thesis has collected in-depth data through interviews with

One fifth of the energy consumed by buildings in Sweden is by those built before 1945, many of them constructed from solid masonry walls. Improving their heating energy consumption is a challenge we must face in light of human’s impact on climate change as well as increasing energy costs. Improving thermal performance can be achieved with many insulating materials however the environmental impact

Interdisciplinary teams are considered to be of great importance for addressing complex problems of the present and future, as they are able to address the complexity of society’s most pressing issues such as climate change, or healthcare solutions. They can be found in multiple areas concerned with future- related problems. Research on specific fields such as healthcare and social work suggests t

Entrepreneurial finance is of key importance for young firms and as in any other hierarchical structure, it is strongly linked with the agency dilemma. While the principal-agent dilemma has been well documented in large companies, there is a limited contribution focused on agency theory within start-ups and young firms. When considering new enterprises, the key actors do not fit quite so neatly in

Following the structural transformation process in the 1990s, the government of Saxony set its hopes on the microelectronic cluster in its region to foster regional development and international competition. It is uncertain whether the cluster of Silicon Saxony has managed to meet these expectations. By comparing the cluster to four other major microelectronic clusters in Europe, the study assesse

Höganäs AB is developing an axial flux machine, where an even airgap between the stator and rotor is a vital parameter when designing a well functioning machine. It is believed that the stator is the component that introduces the biggest variations to the airgap, and that is why the stator is the object of investigation for this thesis. The stator is made of metal powder and the steps in the manuf

Kemi är en viktig del i våra dagliga liv och den är fylld med många invecklade processer och mekanismer. Några av oss kanske kommer ihåg tumregeln ”lika löser lika” från kemiundervisningen. Detta påstående stämmer i de flesta sammanhangen inom kemin och kan i vissa fall leda till problem om vi till exempel hade haft smutsig tvätt och enbart hade använt vatten vid rengöringen. När vi använder vat4-Bromo-3-methylaniline was used as the starting block to synthesise a Tröger’s base analogue with the aim of fusing the final monomer into a nanotube. The intermediates were to be characterised using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, infrared-, high resolution mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography amongst other. At the end, 356 mg of N-((5R,6S,11R,12S)-8-amino-6,12-bis(methoxymethyl)-1,

Action Research, Participatory Action Research and participatory methods have faced a number of criticisms, including that they do not actually involve citizens or create social change, and that they are tokenistic. This thesis develops and tests a new participatory method that contributes to a democratic and emancipatory PAR that responds to these criticisms and the shortcomings of current method

Difficulty to empty the package is one of the main reason of food waste in yoghurt at consumer level with an estimated 5-10% of product residue being left on the packaging material. The phenomenon of product build up is explained by numerous hypothesis. However, these studies are empirical in nature. The purpose of this study is to develop a tool box to address the link between the physicochemical

Background: Sustained attention, which is essential for any cognitively planned activity, is very important for everyday life. White noise is typically thought of as a distractor for one’s attention that may be detrimental to cognitive performance. However, recent studies have some counterintuitive findings, indicating proper white noise can improve attention and cognitive performance. In addition

Several organizations claim menstruation and lack of proper sanitary protection to be one reason for lower school attendance in developing countries. These claims are stated to cause lower progression rates to secondary school among girls, and further increase the gender gap in enrollment to higher education. This study aims to examine the effects of menstruation on school attendance and to evalua

At the core of this thesis lies the conception that branding theories might bear insights for individuals who aim to establish their professional existence outside of the area for which their profession grants them credibility. One group of such professionals was found in self-employed social workers who offer employee assistance to private corporations. They operate outside of what is widely ackn

Events that can be described as high impact and low probability (HILP-events) have been proven difficult to deal with, for example background data often is sparse. Due to the construction of traffic tunnels these events need to be taken into consideration. A tool for doing this is risk analysis, and with this tool the events can be identified and handled with a quantitative or qualitative approach

Aim: The aim of the thesis is to examine whether the current operational due diligence process encapsulates the most significant factors to assess the risk of fraudulent behavior prior to investing in a hedge fund, and also to analyze how the due diligence should be performed if a hedge fund lack a long track-record. Methodology: A qualitative multi-method approach was used. Discussions concernin

Den här uppsatsen undersöker relationen mellan mikrokändisar och artister med artisten Billie Eilish, 17 som exempel för att undersöka detta. Vi undersöker vilken roll mikrokändisar har i byggandet av artisters image och gör det med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Den empiri som analysen utgår ifrån är en intervju med Eilish, tre Instagramkonton av mikrokändisar med relation till Eilish samt Eilish
