Microplastics are becoming an increasingly bigger problem, and there are currently around 150 million tons of plastic in the ocean. Most plastic in the ocean was released on land and then transported to the ocean. There are, however, microplastics released directly into the ocean, for example from boat paint. This study will investigate paint microplastic released from the storage area in a Swedis
Detta arbete undersökte vilken av Honesty-Humility och machiavellianism som var den starkaste förklaringsmodellen för emotionell manipulation i sociala interaktioner. Metoden var en kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie med 163 deltagare som besvarade en enkät som bestod av tre självskattningstester: HEXACO med 60 items, MACH-IV och Emotional Manipulation Scale. Resultaten visade att båda förklaringsmodellThis study aimed to explore which model between Honesty-Humility and machiavellianism that best could explain emotional manipulation in social interactions. The method was a quantitative cross-sectional study with 163 participants who answered a survey that consisted of three self-report tests: HEXACO with 60 items, MACH-IV and Emotional Manipulation Scale (EMS). The result showed that both models
This study investigates the technical and organizational challenges Swedish small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) encounter when generating and managing environmental data through information systems for sustainability reporting under increasing ESG and CSRD-related value-chain demands. The study focuses on SMEs that are not directly subject to mandatory CSRD reporting but are affected through
This study investigates transactional friction in Instagram’s informal social commerce environment defined as the cumulative operational, cognitive, and trust-related effort that small-scale sellers and their buyers must expend to complete a commercial transaction through direct messaging in the absence of integrated platform support. Instagram is highly effective at generating purchase intent
Teacher shortages and occupational strain have increased interest in understanding the factors that support long-term teacher sustainability. Drawing on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model and the Sustainable Working Life for All Ages (SwAge) framework, this study examined how organizational demands and resources relate to teacher professional sustainability in Hungary and Sweden. Professional
This study examines the underlying qualities of young adult students' judgments on Swedish drug policy by conducting and analysing six interviews with students at Lund University. Deploying thematic analysis, this study explores the moral boundaries and social values underpinning the explicit opinions of the interviewees. The analysis is further informed by theories on moral regulation, the po
Svensk välfärd är under förhandling med ett ökande antal välfärdsproducenter som inträder i fältet. Denna studie undersöker Svenska kyrkans samtida samhällsposition i en svensk kontext som utmärks av ett fasthållande vid religiös tradition och hög sekularisering. Studien antar ett institutionellt perspektiv med hjälp av teorin om institutionell isomorfi. Materialet bygger empiriskt på sex semistru
How well an urban flood model performs in predicting water depth and flow depends on the quality and resolution of its input data. Yet, the sensitivity of the model, particularly the relative sensitivity to elevation data and land cover resolutions, remains to be sufficiently understood. This study evaluates sensitivity of the TFM-DYN flood model to varying spatial resolutions of its input digital
Universitet och kurs: Logistics Service Management, Campus Helsingborg, Lunds Universitet. LGMK65 VT 2026. Examensarbete för kandidatexamen, 15p. Problemområde: Tidigare forskning visar att dagens lagerverksamhet riskerar att bli sårbar på grund av en ensidig strävan att låta maskiner ersätta människor, istället för att främja ett organiskt samarbete. Det finns därför behov av att förstå hur överg
As digital communication has transformed how people read, words now routinely appear alongside pictographic symbols such as emojis. How the reading system processes these mixed displays, and whether such processing is universal across language backgrounds, remains unclear. This study examined how emojis are semantically processed during sentence reading and whether the reader's language backgr
Green spaces are important parts of our cities supporting both public health and providing ecosystem services such as lowering air temperature and providing stress relief. The study area, Malmö is a city in southern Sweden with a high population density. The city is largely built on and surrounded by agricultural land resulting in few naturally occurring green spaces and only planted trees. Despit
As organizations increasingly depend on electronic performance monitoring, data collection of perceived Electronic Performance Monitoring (EPM) threatens the psychological conditions required for employee creativity. This quantitative study examines how leaders can buffer against electronic performance monitoring through Creativity-Enabling Leadership (CEL); conceptualized in this study as a secon
This thesis examines how far-right digital radicalisation strategies have evolved across platforms over time, comparing YouTube (2015–2020) and TikTok (mid-2020s). The problem addressed is the increasing role of algorithmically driven social media platforms in facilitating extremist content dissemination, particularly among young users. Existing research has largely focused on single platforms or
Att identifiera proteinmönster associerade med lungsyndromet acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) hos patienter med underliggande sepsis är en central utmaning inom intensivvårdsforskning. Konventionella univariata metoder riskerar att missa icke-linjära associationer och högre ordningens interaktioner som speglar syndromets sanna komplexitet, och systematisk utvärdering av alternativa metodIdentifying proteomic patterns associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in sepsis patients is a central challenge in critical care research. Standard univariate approaches may miss non-linear associations and higher-order interactions that reflect the true complexity of the syndrome, yet systematic evaluation of alternative methods is lacking. This thesis introduces a unified eva
Övergivna varukorgar är ett utbrett fenomen inom onlineshopping som tidigare främst har förståtts som ett resultat av tekniska hinder och friktion i köpprocessen, utebliven köpintention eller förändrade sätt att använda varukorgen. Samtidigt kvarstår begränsad förståelse för hur övergivandet av varukorgen formas i relation till hur onlineshopping faktiskt organiseras och utförs i vardagen och hur
Denna studie undersöker hur tågvärdar och kontrollanter inom svensk kollektivtrafik förhåller sig till kroppsburna kameror som integritetskänslig teknik i en utsatt arbetsmiljö. Tidigare forskning om kroppsburna kameror har främst fokuserat på polisiär verksamhet, medan forskning om användningen inom kollektivtrafiken är mer begränsad. Studien syftar till att bidra med kunskap om hur tekniken uppl
For financial institutions, estimating the probability of default is central to credit-risk modelling. This is traditionally done using logistic regression, but machine learning methods have shown promising results because of their ability to capture more flexible relationships. However, the complexity of such models makes them difficult to interpret and consequently difficult to justify to regula
Bilingual language processing is complex, and it is yet to be explored in its full extent. Previous research suggests that bilinguals’ first- and second-language mental lexicons are interconnected, but the nature and extent of this relationship remain a matter of debate. One of the best indicators of this highly dynamic relationship between the two languages is code-switching. Although from the sp
Sustainable development requires balancing ecological, social, and economic dimensions. In municipalities, sustainability is implemented by, among others, environmental and climate strategists, whose work is naturally shaped by goal conflicts. Studying these conflicts through a Swedish municipal lens is necessary as there is currently a lack of Swedish empirical research focusing specifically on p
Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker hur KPI:er (Key Performance Indicators) uppfattas och används inom svensk farmaceutisk verksamhet. I takt med att prestationsmätning fått en allt större betydelse inom samhällskritiska verksamheter har KPI:er blivit centrala verktyg för styrning, uppföljning och kvalitetssäkring. Tidigare forskning har främst fokuserat på KPI:ers funktion som styrinstrument och der
