As the media landscape is undergoing significant changes and becoming increasingly polarized, much due to the rise of social media, it creates complexities as well as opportunities for marketers to create consumer brand engagement. Within the field of entertainment this becomes particularly important as engaged consumers are fundamental for brands to succeed. Thus, the purpose of this study is to
Foundation and Purpose: This research paper explores identity and sensemaking in the context of organizational change. The theoretical basis is anchored in the context of NPOs, studying the particular case of a trade union in Northern Europe embracing digital transformation. The study of this phenomenon is relevant as it explores a trade union’s efforts to remain current and to continue as a purpo
The present study aims to investigate whether there is a relationship between exposure to content on the social media platform TikTok and young people’s attitudes towards people with disabilities. A quantitative study was conducted with 83 participants aged 15 to 25. Respondents estimated their exposure to positive and negative content about disability and their attitudes using the Attitudes Towar
Misleading health information remains a central concern in medical sociology and public health due to its harmful effects on individuals and society. As health information-seeking increasingly shifts to digital platforms, Large Language Models (LLMs)—now commonly used as search engines—have intensified concerns about the spread of health misinformation. This study examines the potential for LLMs t
Vombsänkan is one of the largest groundwater aquifers in Sweden, it can be divided into a southeastern part with a limestone aquifer and a northwestern part with an aquifer in soil. The limestone aquifer is confined, since it’s overlain by low-permeability soils. All wells for irrigation and municipal purposes are drilled into the limestone rock. The goal is to establish a hydraulic groundwater mo
The purpose of the study is to investigate how newspaper articles present the agency of young people placed in SIS in text and what this may mean for the perceptions that are created about young people who are in community care. The analysis is conducted as a critical discourse analysis that analyzes articles in the newspaper Aftonbladet, where the theory and method are inspired by the linguist No
A setup using two of the novel COMPEX composite Ge-detectors was assessed for its sensitivity for γ-ray polarisation studies. Two slightly different configurations were considered with angles of 90° and 180° between COMPEX 2 and COMPEX 3, using a standard calibration 60Co source. Measurements were performed with the two detectors in coincidence mode, and the resulting signals were digitised using
Denna studie undersöker hur arbetsmetoder anpassas inom AI-projekt, särskilt när dessa bygger på generativ AI. Genom kvalitativa intervjuer med fem utvecklare och projektledare inom olika organisationer analyseras hur man hanterar osäkerhet, experimentellt arbete och snabba iterat-ioner inom AI-projekt. Resultaten visar att team ofta tillämpar en selektiv och flexibel version av agila ramverk som

As private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) firms have become more active in taking companies public, questions around the credibility of these sponsors and their effect on post-IPO performance have grown in relevance. This study explores how different types of financial sponsors and their associated credibility influence stock returns following initial public offerings (IPOs). Using a sample
This thesis explores the integration of generative AI in IT consultancy, focusing on how consultants and managers perceive its strategic and practical implications in project management. Using a dual-method approach, the study combines semi-structured interviews with AI-driven case experiments to investigate both human perspectives and AI performance. Findings reveal that generative AI is valued f
The most common forest management practice in Sweden is rotation forestry, based on clear-cutting and replanting. However, considering biodiversity loss and climate change, this model has been increasingly questioned. As an alternative, continuous cover forestry (CCF) is proposed for its potential to promote multifunctionality and enhance climate resil-ience. This study aimed to identify barriers
Syftet med studien var att undersöka attityder till säkerhetsbeteende bland poliser relaterat till arbetspress, organisatoriskt stöd samt yrkesidentitet. Studien ämnade även att bidra till kunskap om samt ökad förmåga att förebygga beteenden vilka kan öka risken för fel och olyckor bland poliser. Data samlades in med en digital enkät som besvarades av poliser med polisexamen (N=59). ResultatetThe aim of this study was to examine attitudes towards safety behaviour among police officers in relation to work pressure, organizational support, and occupational identity. Additionally, the study sought to contribute to and enhance the ability to prevent behaviours that may increase the risk of errors and accidents among police officers. Data were collected through a digital survey, answered
Denna studie undersöker hur aktörer inom den europeiska vinindustrin uppfattar värde, beredskap och utmaningar kopplat till datainsamling till följd av nya EU-direktiv, särskilt CSRD och e-märkningsdirektivet. Resultaten indikerar bristande beredskap bland både producenter och importörer, där mindre aktörer i synnerhet upplever regelverken som komplexa och resurskrävande. Datahanteringen präglas i
Följande studie har ämnat undersöka i vilken grad beteendefrekvens förväxlas med uppfattad kompetens, samt ifall ansvarsutkrävande (accountability) kan ha en påverkan på sambandet. Följande hypoteser bildades: H1: Individer som exponeras för hög beteendefrekvens kommer att tillskriva högre kompetens till den bedömda personen jämfört med individer som exponeras för låg beteendefrekvens. Samt, H2: DThe following study aimed to explore the extent of which behaviour frequency is confused with competence, and furthermore if the manipulation of perceived accountability has any effect on the relationship. From this, the following two hypotheses were formed, H1: Individuals exposed to high behaviour frequency will attribute higher competence to the person being judged, compared to those who are ex
Foodborne diseases are a growing global concern, and a shift in trends has occurred re garding salmonella infections in Sweden. The purpose of this study is therefore to inves tigate how nursing homes in Sweden work to prevent foodborne infections. The study was conducted through semi-structured interviews with staff at nursing homes and with representatives from inspection authorities to gather
Dryland ecosystems are important yet understudied sinks of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄), and sources of nitrous oxide (N₂O). Hence, monitoring greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes and their responses to climate change in these systems is increasingly important. This thesis investigates the potential of hyperspectral reflectance data (between 390 and 1750nm) to predict greenhouse gas fluxes during
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is in gene therapy, a widely studied viral vector for delivering therapeutic genes to cure genetic diseases. A major limitation of the wild type AAV is its broad tissue tropism, which necessitates high viral doses to achieve therapeutic efficacy in target tissue. Despite its non-pathogenic profile, high doses can cause adverse immune responses. In this study, the capsi
