The purpose of this study was to elucidate the traditional views on cyberbullying and more specifically how others perceive and describe cyber-bullying and its causes, consequences and solutions. To carry out my investigation, I have used qualitative research methods in the form of text analysis. My empirical material consists of 44 Swedish blogs which 28 were written by young people, and the rema
The purpose of this report is to establish how NCC works in the field of sustainable renovation. I will investigate whether such sustainable renovation is economically viable, energy efficient and environmentally friendly, with additional attention being paid as to how NCC use demonstration projects to achieve these goals. NCC is actively working to their image regarding sustainability, with a ma
E-demokrati är en viktig del i främjandet av demokratin. Att uppnå en hög grad av e-demokrati ställer emellertid många krav på en organisation och dess medarbetare. Med utgångspunkt från en tidigare studie som kartlagt och rankat kommuner efter makrovärden har denna studie utgått från kommuner med hög ranking, där fokus ligger på fyra element: förhållningssätt till e-demokrati, involvering av medb
Den här uppsatsen är en sammanställning av de vanligast förekommande kritiska framgångsfaktorerna för implementering av affärssystem. Utifrån de kategorierna har en intervjuguide skapats som sedan har använts för att intervjua två stycken respondenter på två olika företag, som arbetat med implementeringar av affärssystem. Resultatet visar att de båda företagen har en grundläggande vetskap av de ol
Popular science The eddy-covariance (EC) method is one of the most important methods to measure gas and energy fluxes between biosphere and atmosphere at ecosystem level. This method was applied above the floor of a boreal forest in Norunda, central Sweden, at 1.5 m height. The objective was to measure the energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from the soil and the understory vegetation to the at
This thesis analyzes the corporate rebalancing behavior of German publicly listed firms subsequent to equity price shocks. The examined period (1990-2012) includes a total sample of 2,154 firm-years. It is found that German firms do not counteract stock induced changes in market-based capital ratios in the short run; whereas managerial rebalancing activity gradually gains importance in the long-te
The origin of the class of exoplanets typically referred to as hot Jupiters is to this day an unsettled matter. Some of the proposed formation channels predict certain values of the spin-orbit misalignment parameter, i.e. the angle between the stellar rotation axis, and the angular momentum vector of the planet orbit. One such formation channel is tidal capture following Kozai resonance (TCKR). Th
Every year hundreds of thousands of Central American migrants from mainly Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador embark on a journey through Mexican territory with the hopes of a better future in the United States - estimations suggest that up to thirty percent are women. Transnational migration is due to heightened violence in Central America on the rise. Although earlier research about women´s part
High levels of stress have been documented to impact memory and attention. On the other hand according to previous literature low levels of stress can be helpful in preparing individuals physically and mentally to become active. Relaxation techniques have been proved to reduce stress successfully but there is debate regarding if they have the same positive effects on cognitive performance as well.
Föreliggande studie har undersökt psykologyrkets inverkan på privatlivet, samt hur psykologer skiljer mellan det privata jaget och jaget i rollen som psykolog. Ett delsyfte var att få fördjupad förståelse för vilka föreställningar och förväntningar som psykologrollen inbegriper. Det finns få tidigare studier inom ämnet varför en explorativ ansats har valts. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördesThe aim of the present study was to examine how working as a psychologist can affect the private life and how psychologists manage to separate the private self from the self in the role of the psychologist. A secondary aim was to explore ideas and expectations on the role of a psychologist. There were few prior studies in the area why an explorative approach was chosen. Semi-structured interviews
The shape of a diffuse reflectance spectra can provide knowledge about tissue composition. By analysing this spectra one can, with the right evaluation methods, find out information about the tissue. With known absorption properties of the present tissue chromophores it is possible, with a curve fit algorithm, to find their volume fractions in any measured tissue. In this work, the usability of
The aim of this paper was to explore the perceptions and images of mental illness that is conveyed in the media form of internet magazines, more precisely in the discussion forums that are found below the articles. This paper also explored how the category of people with mental health problems related to these structures. A central focus was to investigate how the image was constructed from the ta
