This study inspects the micro-determinants of return intentions for foreign nuclear families in Italy. In particular, I argue against the unitary nature of households and focus on intra-household patterns of decision-making, which have been largely neglected by previous studies. Using data from the “Statistics of Income and Living Conditions of Households with Foreigners” (Istat, 2009), I find tha

Previous research shows that gender is a strong predictor of household labour division in heterosexual households. Same-sex couples cannot use gender and social norms associated with them as a starting point for initial household labour allocation. Although literature on household labour division is extensive, it does not elaborate enough on same-sex households. The aim of this study is to fill th

nvestigating the Swedish stock market, we find value stocks to have significantly outperformed growth stocks during the period of 1993 to 2017. As value stocks are found to be riskier during bad states of the economy, the existence of the value premium can be partly attributed to time-varying risk. Value betas are anticyclical, while growth betas exhibit a procyclical pattern. Controlling for time

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore how the phenomenon of brand personas with a story can be constructed and categorized by integrating literature theory, illustrated by case examples. There is a need for this type of study, as a profound knowledge gap exists in relation to brand personas, their stories and the creation of them as characters. Thus, the study is foundational and concep

This dissertation endeavours to examine long-lasting sequels of malaria on economic development in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite the general consensus that countries where malaria is endemic are not only poorer but also grow economically at a slower pace than non-malarial ones, the channels through which malaria incidence translates into lower subsequent development are still under-examined. The aim

For long, it has been popular to change the appearance of your hair by making it straight or curly. This change can be made more lasting by doing a perming treatment.

A perming treatment makes the hair curly or straight by using formulations with strong chemicals, such as reducing and oxidizing agents.

A high informality incidence, measured as the share of informal employment out of total employment, is a common characteristic of most developing countries’ economies. In Mexico, where informal employment accounts for the majority of labour activity, this is argued to be a consequence of its unique social policy. The introduction of the social protection program for health in 2002, Seguro Popular,

Augmented Reality har vuxit och visat vara intresse som verktyg inom flera verksamhetsområden. Tekniken visualiserar virtuell data i verklig miljö vilket möjliggör för användare att kunna ”promenera omkring” i en förstärkt verklighet. Samtidigt använder byggprojekt sig länge av tekniska verktyg för ökad förståelse och som stöd, i form av modeller. I denna studie undersöks hur aktörer och intressen
