In South Africa, sustainable use of wildlife is widely recognized as providing economic incentives and actively engaging rural communities in conservation management. Aiming to combat rampant poverty and wildlife crime in communities around protected areas (PAs), the country’s biodiversity economy envisions to scale (non-)consumptive activities in the pursuit of creating economically and environme

Bakgrund: Patienter inom intensivvård upplever många svårigheter och utmaningar under sin vårdtid. Törst, smärta, mardrömmar och hallucinationer liksom förlust av autonomi och ångest är tidigare beskrivet. Vidare har det framkommit att stressfulla minnen från intensivvård ökar risken för att patienter skall utveckla posttraumatiskt stressyndrom efter utskrivning från intensivvårdsavdelning. S

The development of image-based machine learning technology brings new ways of how we use and produce images. Due to the significant reliance on images and drawings, machine learning technology might achieve new potentials for the architecture discipline. My thesis explored these potentials through conducting experiments. In the first part of my thesis, I used the image-based machine learning algor

Dysexecutive Questionniare (DEX) är ett av de mest vanligt förekommande skattningsformulären som mäter exekutivt fungerande i vardagen, och administreras oftast till patienter med förvärvad hjärnskada. Eftersom individer med förvärvad hjärnskada riskerar att lida av nedsatt självmedvetenhet av brister i exekutiva funktioner, är skalan tillgänglig både som självskattning och informantskattning. DenThe Dysexecutive Questionnaire (DEX) is one of the most commonly used rating scales of executive functioning in daily life and is most frequently administered to patients with acquired brain injury (ABI). Because individuals with ABI are at risk of suffering from impaired self-awareness of executive function deficits, the scale is available both as a self-assessment and in an independent-rating ve

CO oxidation over Pd(100) is studied with ambient pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS). Cyclic gas composition pulsing of the CO:O2 ratio, combined with a new method using software based event-averaging by image recognition over many pulses, is used to improve the signal-to-noise ratio substantially. Hereby, it becomes possible to follow the dynamics of Pd(100) restructuring between a

types of B-cell lymphomas. However, the role of MYC in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), a clinically diverse and incurable disease, needs to be further elucidated. The aim of this study is to evaluate MYC mRNA deregulation and explore the mechanism behind PLK-1 induced cell death, as a target for MYC-driven MCL. To achieve this, RNAscope® is used to detect and quantify MYC mRNA expression in a populati

A crucial yet unanswered question in the entrepreneurial domain is why men tend to receive more venture capital funding than women. As venture capitalists act as critical gatekeepers who ultimately decide whose ideas, innovations, and products will get a fair chance (Chilazi, 2019), female entrepreneurs have a lower chance of succeeding with their high-growth ventures. This research aims to furthe

This paper examines the effect a membership in the EMU would have on the Swedish economy. This is done by using the synthetic control method where a synthetical Sweden is created and compared with actual Sweden. Synthetic Sweden is created by 11 donor pool countries, which are the 11 countries that joined the EMU in 1999. Using GDP per capita and Export as a percentage of GDP as dependent variable

Denna uppsats behandlar de tre rekvisiten stipulerade i inkomstskattelagen som behöver vara uppfyllda för att ett företag skatterättsligt skall konstituera ett investmentföretag. Bedömningen gällande huruvida ett företag uppfyller ett, eller flera, av rekvisiten för investmentföretagsstatus har dock inte alltid visat sig vara oproblematisk i praktiken. Uppsatsens syfte är således dels att redogöraThis essay deals with the three necessary conditions, stipulated in the Swedish Income Tax Act (“Inkomstskattelagen”), needed to be met in order for a company to be able to constitute an investment company. However, determining whether an entity satisfies one or more of the criteria for investment company status has not always proved to be unproblematic in practice. The purpose of the essay is thu

The aim of this study is to examine different subjective income levels perceptions of security in relation to intelligent camera surveillance. The police argue that the intelligent surveillance cameras will increase the experience of feeling secure. Camera surveillance was a controversial practice even before the implementation of AI and its implementation means that "smart" functions ca

Phubbing beskriver fenomenet då en eller flera personer under en social interaktion tar upp sin mobiltelefon och riktar sin uppmärksamhet mot den istället för den eller de en umgås med. Phubbing har i tidigare kvantitativa studier visat sig ge upphov till negativa känslor och tycks påverka relationer och relationskvalitet negativt. Därför ämnar denna kvalitativa studie besvara forskningsfrågan: HuPhubbing describes the phenomenon when one or more people during a social interaction pick up their mobile phone and direct their attention to it instead of the person or people they are hanging out with. Phubbing has in previous quantitative studies been shown to give rise to negative emotions and seems to affect relationships and relationship quality negatively. Therefore, this qualitative study

Studies conducted within the field of Strategic Communication have often had communication practitioners working within organizations as the object of investigation. Communication consultants, however, is a professional role within Strategic Communication that needs further investigation. The profession is characterized by a certain ambiguity, as it rarely involves demand on higher education, cert

Overheating in buildings is becoming a major concern and cause for various health issues. Existing research and previous studies on the issue were examined to acquire relevant information about the definition of overheating, its possible causes, and the heath impacts it could have on human health. The review included data on the current status of thermal comfort and overheating regulations in Swed

Mikroplast har varit ett stort föroreningsproblem sedan början av plastens massproduktion på 1950-talet. Mikroplast bildas dels när plastmaterial avsiktligt skapas för att vara del av skönhetsprodukter och liknande och dels oavsiktligt, när plast bryts ner till mindre partiklar på grund av solljus, vind och regn. Detta kallas för primär respektive sekundär mikro-plast. Mikroplast är ett stort probMicroplastics (MPs) are a major pollution concern since the start of the mass produc-tion of plastics in the 1950s. MPs form A) when plastics are produced intentionally to be part of beauty products and B) when plastics are broken down into smaller particles by sunlight, wind, and rain. This is called primary and secondary microplastics, respectively. MPs are a concern because they can carry toxic

En radar använder elektromagnetiska vågor för att kunna skicka och motta signaler. Precis på samma sätt som att våra öron, ögon och tungor är mottagare och vår röst och vårt kroppsspråk är sändare av signaler till världen omkring oss. För både människan och för radarn så behövs det skydd mot omgivningen. Till exempel, har våra ögon ögonlock och vår röst är dold inne i halsen. Utan ögonlock skulle The radome, a portmanteau of the words radar and dome, is a protective dielectric cover to protect a radar from its surrounding environment. The surrounding environment can be rain, wind, sand, dust and whatever else that might harm the radar. Radomes come in many different shapes, materials and thicknesses, where each of these parameters are decided based on the need for the given radar applicati

Sweden has a long history of colonialism in the Sápmi region where the state repeatedly has claimed land at the expense of reindeer husbandry and the Sami culture. The Swedish government has never recognized its colonial history and is still today claiming land for various projects, often covered by wording about sustainable development and a green transition. The purpose of this thesis has been t

Gängkriminaliteten låg i mars 2022 i topp tre viktigaste valfrågor för väljare inför valet. Regeringen lade 2019 fram en 34-stegsplan för att bekämpa den gängkriminella situation som råder i Sverige och av förslagen att läsa, ses i vissa grund i den vetenskapliga forskning som finns, samtidigt som en del förslag går rakt emot den. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka den kriminalpolitiska situ
