Efter att ha träffat många kollegor och vänner som inte upplever att deras förväntningar på sina arbetsuppgifter infrias, är det intressant att utforska hur detta missförstånd i kommunikationen uppstår. Denna studie har därför fokuserat på att undersöka om det redan i platsannonsskedet uppstår ett brus mellan arbetsgivare och arbetssökande, och hur det ser ut. Syftet med uppsatsen är att skapa e
In this paper the author will attempt to lay a foundation of information regarding entrants into the HD interactive entertainment or “video games” market in China using the Porter five competitive forces framework which helps measure the level of competition of the market.

This thesis is about the relationship between perceived risk and actual risk regarding bicycle infrastructure. The study examines cykelrondellen, the crossing Kaptensgatan–Kungsgatan in Malmö, Sweden. The crossing is seen by many as dangerous even though it is safe based on objective traffic safety numbers. A case study is made on the crossing from a technical viewpoint. The results from this stud
Referenda, as a form of direct democracy, became a popular tool for resolving important questions over the last decades. The issue of rights of sexual minorities, among others, has also become a quite popular topic for referenda. Referenda on human rights, also known as “anti-homosexual” referenda,” discriminatory “referenda or “referenda on the protection of family”, are dedicated to resolving th
The economic costs associated with currency crises following successful speculative attacks may motivate intervention by the public sector. This thesis uses macro data to examine the effects of two forms of public intervention with regard to debt inflows on the economic costs of a crisis. On the one hand, official creditors may provide debt financing to the country’s public sector. On the other,
This thesis explores the possibility of using IBMs cloud based software Watson for extracting complaints from social media. This is done with two different methods, both based on Watson's text parsing functionality. Different words or parts of sentences is then extracted and compared to other sources in order to determine if it can be considered a complaint, and if so, how common it is. A smal
Studien omfattade kvalitativa intervjuer av en heterogen grupp entreprenörer. Utifrån teorier kring ämnet entreprenörskap och konstruktionism har vi analyserat vårt empiriska material med fokus på vårt syfte; att skapa förståelse för entreprenörskapet utifrån aktörens egen synvinkel och, genom denna förståelse, behandla dess subjektivitet, sammanhang och omgivningens betydelse. Det framgår att rThe study included qualitative interviews of a heterogeneous group of entrepreneurs and was based on theories connected with the subject of entrepreneurship and constructionism. We have analyzed our empirical material focusing on our intent; to create an understanding of entrepreneurship based on operators' own viewpoint and, through this understanding, process its subjectivity, context and am
Here I present a conceptual synthesis of the processes governing soil carbon in the event of biochar application. Biochar is a product of a controlled pyrolysis process and is known for its physical, chemical and adsorptive properties. It has been speculated to be a tool for sequestering carbon in soil to offset greenhouse gas emissions, and as a soil amendment. The study is done in collaboration
The correct positioning of photovoltaic panels is essential to ensure the maximum production of electrical energy. Two parameters are involved in this: the tilt angle and the angle of orientation. In the literature, though, the orientation angle receives little attention. In this work, I present an application I developed using the Python programming language in a GIS environment that can help fin

Det tycks som fler och fler blir visstidsanställda. TCO menar att det finns ett utbrett missbruk av visstidsanställning som anställningsform och har anmält Sverige till EU-kommissionen för brott mot visstidsdirektivet. Svenskt Näringsliv menar att det inte finns något missbruk av visstidsanställningen och menar att anmälan är obefogad. Syftet och frågeställningen för denna uppsats är tvådelad, för
De senaste åren har en ny marknad, för diverse tillgångar och tjänster, vuxit fram och tagit marknadsandelar från de traditionella industrierna och marknaderna. Genom teknikens utveckling och möjligheterna som det medfört, har peer-to-peer-plattformar samlat stora mängder privatpersoner, som på dessa marknader agerar i rollen som både producent och konsument. Sroa skillnader finns mellan detta nya
To increase the efficiency of the product development process at Volvo Car Group, knowledge accumulation is central in the early strategy and concept phase. Within the department for Research and Development, the unit responsible for powertrain engineering desires a process to document system interfaces, in order to reuse what they do already know in new applications. This thesis presents a proce
Undersökningen visar på att styrning av kunskapsarbetare inte bara görs via normativ styrning, det förekommer också andra typer av styrning så som direkt övervakning/styrning. Studien visar på att kunskapsarbetares aversioner mot mer direkta former av styrning kan överkommas om denna legitimeras och paketeras på ett attraktivt sätt.
A critical review of the history of the discursive formation of Sino-Indian relations suggests that the largely negative mutual perceptions by the Chinese and Indian public and media are opposed by an optimistic discourse of both nations’ political and economic elites. This is also accompanied by a juxtaposed, binary discourse of the bilateral relation by members of the Liberal and Realist camp in
Studiens syfte var att undersöka fem svenska soldaters upplevelser av offensiv krigsföring under sin tjänstgöring i Afghanistan. I fokus låg deras hantering av mental belastning och deras behov av stöd före, under och efter insats. Halvstrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med fem soldater som under 6 månaders tid hade tjänstgjort i Afghanistan mellan åren 2009-2012. Intervjuerna analyserades med TThe purpose of this study was to examine five Swedish soldiers' experiences of offensive war technique while serving for 6 months in Afghanistan. In particular, focus was on their experiences of dealing with mental stress and their need for support before, during and after their mission.

Kv. Renen 13 i centrala Varberg är sedan tidigare känt som kraftigt förorenat. På fastigheten har det från slutet av 1800-talet fram till 2003 funnits verksamheter i form av textilindustri som avlösts av finmekanisk verkstadsindustri. Det är framförallt den sistnämnda verksamheten som har orsakat rådande situation med höga halter klorerade lösningsmedel, trikloreten (TCE) och 1,1,1-trikoletan (TCAAn old industry estate, Kv. Renen 13, is located in central Varberg, southwest Sweden, and is known from previous investigations as highly polluted. Pollution started in the late 19th century with textile manufacturing, and in the 1960´s changed into a precision mechanics industry using chlorinated solvents, primary trichloroethene (TCE) and 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA), as well as cyanide and meta
