This bachelor is a quantative content analysis that focuses on the description of Autism in daily newspapers in Sweden. I have analysed 58 newspaper articles where the word ”autism” is used and through a coding system chategorized these into different diagrams in order to analyse them. The research has been analysed through theories of socialconstructivism, user influence and discourses of power.
In society, accidents happen on a daily basis. To investigate these accidents is part of preventing them from happening at all. The investigations are carried out by different reasons and with different focus as well as by varying methods and extent. This contributes to that the finding of causes of the event varies with the investigator as well as with what the purpose of the investigation is as
The purpose of this study is to understand interest alignment and potentially competitive advantage within management consulting firms, as a consequence of the firm’s ability to incentivize and motivate its employees. In doing this, the authors examined various interest-aligning incentive mechanisms and their linkage to a specific firm’s competitive advantage. The findings of this paper indicate t
The aim of this study was to examine what junior and intermediate level school teachers con-sider to be their responsibility in regards to actively paying attention to children who are vic-tims of domestic physical and/or psychological violence. The approach of the study was quali-tative with semi-structured interviews. Five junior and intermediate level school teachers from two different schools
EU:s konkurrensrätt och Artikel 102 FEUF syftar till att förhindra snedvridningar av konkurrensen. Enligt ekonomisk teori så ökar en frimarknadsekonomi samhällsnyttan genom konkurrens. Denna slutsats kan motiveras av de två teoretiska modellerna perfekt konkurrens och dess motsats monopol, en total avsaknad av konkurrens. Ett viktigt undantag till detta antagande existerar i de fall där monopol ärEU competition law, and Article 102 TFEU, strives to prevent the distortion of competition. According to economic theory, a free market economy where resources are allocated through competition can generally be expected to increase the total utility of society. The theoretical models of perfect competition and its opposite monopoly, a total lack of competition, motivates this conclusion. An import
The chest has been found amongst the few furnitures from a pre-historic time, and has played a very important role until about hundred years ago. What if the chest could be brought back into a modern context? My goal is to postpone product replacement by creating a certain degree of emotional attachment between the product and the end-user. During this project I have focused on nostalgia and p
Pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment is a non-thermal process which has a wide range of beneficial effects in food processing. The application of pulsed electric field treatment relevant for this work is as pre-treatment on basil leaves before the drying process. It has been proven that PEF treatment can significantly reduce the drying time due to the electroporation of the guard cells of stomata
When we discovered that children's literature is actively used in social work as a therapeutic tool for children whom have been exposed to domestic violence, we chose to analyse what these books were mediating to children. The aim of our study was to reveal how domestic violence is constructed in children's literature. Therefore, our focus has been the constructions of violence, constructi
In-store kiosks och dess digitala funktioner har tagit en plats i utvecklandet av detalj-handelns butiker i syfte att bland annat skapa konkurrensfördelar. Vidare innebär det att digitala funktioner kan bidra till att skapa värde för konsumenter, däremot har tidigare studier studerat fenomenet ur ett företagsperspektiv. Detta innebär att det saknas kunskap kring hur konsumenter upplever värde i an
The topic of energy, and particularly, the growing role of renewable energy sources in decarbonizing the economy dominates European political and research agendas. Similarly, a revived political interest in Western Balkan countries from the European Union (EU) sheds light on the longstanding efforts of legislative harmonization and the modernization, decarbonization and integration of the regional
As the capacity of our planet to sustain the needs of future generations is deteriorating at an unprecedented rate, the role of innovation, research and development is becoming increasingly important. While the restrictions imposed on economic growth by the environment have been extensively examined and subject to much debate, the emerging concept of eco-innovation has not gained similar attention
This thesis investigates whether the share of female legislative representation on a national level has an impact on public expenditure on social issues such as health care, education and elderly care. Using panel data primarily from the Comparative Welfare States dataset I perform a within-country analysis over time using both OLS and IV estimations. I use two instruments, laws on gender quota an

The purpose of the report is to study the yellow cycle route in the city of Lund and investigate the inadequacies that could be found on today's route. The yellow cycle route goes from Dalby in the south to Gunnesbo in the north. The method used to answer the questions of this report is literature study and a technical inventory. The analysis of the studied route is based on Lund’s cycle strat
Value at Risk (VaR) is a popular measurement for valuing the risk exposure. Correct estimates of VaR are essential in order to properly be able to monitor the risk. This thesis examines a copula approach for estimating VaR for portfolios of commodities. The predictions are made from a semi- parametric model with Monte Carlo methods. The underlying model is constructed by choosing the best fit from
Problemområde: Turism är en stadigt växande bransch och många reser för att koppla bort från vardagen. Samtidigt ökar medveten om hållbarhetsfrågor vilket genererat ett intresse för verksamheters ansvarstagande i frågan. I studien undersöks hotellens vattenbesparande strategier eftersom det fanns exempel då de påverkats av gästens upplevelse. Det identifierade problemområdet är således hotellens b
För att motverka klimatförändringarna har Sverige satt som mål att växthusgasutsläppen från inrikes transporter ska minska med minst 70 % senast år 2030 i förhållande till år 2010 (utom inrikes luftfart). För att uppnå detta krävs en satsning på förnybar energi. Skånetrafiken har målsättningen att bli fossilbränslefri senast år 2020, dessutom vill de använda biodrivmedel som genererar så lite växt
In our thesis project called (S)ink we combine an experimental computational approach to flooding and sea level rise with a defined architectural context, with the emphasis on a spatial experiences and aesthetics. We explore new emergent fabrication techniques together with a “poetic” concept of a memory and adaptation.
The mobile telecommunication network is growing year after year and it will soon move into the high speed 5G and Internet of Things technology. These new technologies will improve the throughput and data connectivity and due to that the energy consumption in radio and digital units may increase in a Radio Base Station (RBS). There are more than 500 000 off-grid RBSs in the world which are powered
