Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur skattad nivå i Communication Function Classification System (CFCS) förändras mellan tre skattningstillfällen (2018-2020-2022) för barn med cerebral pares i åldrarna 0–18 år. Syftet var även att undersöka hur mycket av variansen i förändringen av CFCS-nivå som kunde förklaras av ålder och användandet av tal som kommunikationssätt. Metod: Data inhämtadAim: The aim of this study was to investigate how Classification of Communicative Functioning System (CFCS) level changed between three measurements (2018-2020-2022) for children with cerebral palsy aged 0 to 18 years. The aim was also to investigate how the variance in change of CFCS level could be explained by age and use of speech as communication method. Method: Data were obtained using the S

En studie om sökta och erhållna belöningar genom användning av Enterprise Social Media: ett medarbetarperspektiv Många anser att ESM har potentialen att både förenkla och förbättra samarbete, och stärka det ”sociala kapitalet”, men ändå misslyckas 80% av implementationerna. Denna studie hoppas ge insikter i vad som driver de som ändå använder ESM, med förhoppningen att bidra till fler lyckade fraA study of the gratifications sought and obtained through using Enterprise Social Media: an employee perspective Although ESM is widely held to have the potential to improve both collaborative efficiency and to strengthen social ties among employees, around 80% of ESM implementations fail. This study aims to provide a clearer understanding of why some people do use ESM, which in turn can lead to

With the rapid production of sportswear and its price advantage, consumption has also increased significantly, which has a rather negative impact on the environment, society, and the economy. Fashion retailers and their consumers are also well aware of this, and their demands for sustainable fashion have had a strong impact on the production of sportswear and consumer behaviour in recent years. Su

Purpose: The 21st century’s focal point of sustainability obliges businesses to adjust their internal resources and operations towards a complex and dynamic environment. Previous research focused on definitional and motivational aspects of dynamic capabilities for sustainability. Hence, a research gap exists in how dynamic capabilities for sustainability are developed. Thus, this study addresses t

Through semi-structured interviews conducted with representatives of three different NGOs located in The Gambia, this qualitative study explores how practices and activities in the organisations improve educational opportunities for girls in the country. The study identifies specific societal challenges that the NGOs try to remedy with their work, and what the focus is in their capacity building.

På senare år har ökad uppmärksamhet riktats mot det omfattande fusk som ägt rum i samband med högskoleprovet. Fusket ter sig extra allvarligt då de riskerar att skada allmänhetens förtroende inför antagningsprocessen till högre utbildning och utbildningssystemet i stort. På grund av fusket har frågan kring vad som ska hända med en persons högskolebetyg om det uppdagats att personen fuskat sig inIn recent years increased attention has been paid to the extensive cheating that has taken place in connection with Högskoleprovet (A Swedish admission exam for universities). The misdemeanor should be taken seriously as it risks damaging the public's trust in the admission process to higher education and the education system in general. The question arises regarding what should happen to a p

There is an urgent need to ensure sustainable consumption patterns in western countries such as Sweden. Movements around the world demanding leaders to take action for the survival of our planet also puts pressure on companies to act responsibly. Since consumption patterns are influenced by the decisions made by companies on how to do business the choice of business model can promote or hinder mor

We aim to reinforce the importance of more qualitative empirical studies researching the particularities of co-creation efforts, in the context of new, ambiguous mutations of work and organization generated by internet technologies. While answering our research question we will look into personal accounts referring to the individual’s experience of volunteering for Mozilla, and we will contribute

This essay explores the possible influence from WTO law into Community law in the area of State aid. In order to do so one needs to examine questions relating to material law as well as EC enforcement and procedure. Special attention is paid to State aid as regulated in Article 87.1 ECT. When an EC Member State thinks that another Member State is violating Article 87 ECT by administering illegal a

This study set out to examine why agricultural production in differing agro-ecological zones of the same country responds differently to a common environmental event (an extension of the rainy season). We find that the heavy reliance of farmers in the drier agro-ecological zones on seasonal cycles make them more vulnerable to an extension of the rainy season than those in regions where rainfall is

Syfte: Vårt syfte är att studera processen kring utformandet av Svensk kod för bolagsstyrning samt undersöka vilka effekter den kan komma att få för förtroendet för svensk bolagsstyrning. Metod: Vi har i vår uppsats tillämpat en samhällsvetenskaplig ansats och vår undersökning präglas av ett fenomenologiskt tankesätt. Det senare kännetecknas av flexibilitet och möjligheten att successivt anpassa u

Koden har bidragit till ökat medvetande om informationen utåt samt hjälpt företagen att strukturera denna, överlag har det visats en god vilja bland företag att anpassa sig efter och efterleva kodens regler.

Denna uppsats kartlägger de centrala faktorerna som påverkar styrelsens storlek i noterade större bolag. Ett flertal variabler har identifierats som centrala för styrelsestorleken. De främsta faktorerna är ökat intresse för styrelsens funktion bland allmänheten, ökad opinion kring mångfald i styrelsen samt förändring av styrelsens funktion

This thesis studies protection as integral to security. Protection has been used to keep women from the ‘public sphere’ and abused by peacekeepers and patriarchs alike, suggesting that being protected is not synonymous with being safe but can cause violence and exclusion. From that contradiction, I ask how the concepts of protection and security are produced, and to what effects for (gender) equal

In the light of (super) wicked problems, as climate change is, a deep transformation of energy and transport systems is needed. Among other technological innovations, liquid biofuels were adopted also in Romania as an innovation that could contribute to the transition towards a more sustainable transport. However, the biofuels sector is not well-developed in Romania, in spite of considerable poten

Not knowing enough about the similarities or differences of citation structures between different types of publications creates problems related to whether citation maps of research fields based on Web of Science/ISI data are representative of research fields as a whole or if they are a representation of how WoS perceives the field, not the least in the humanities and the social sciences.
