This paper is based on the keynote talk that I gave on the EAHIL+ICAHIS+ICLC 2015 Workshop in Edinburgh. A starting point for the talk was the theme for the Workshop: “Research-minded: supporting, understanding, conducting research”. Some features of qualitative research are presented and a number of methodsare mentioned before zooming in on interviewing, discussing some aspects of that method wit
Popular Abstract in English The gene encoding a β-glucosidase originating from the extreme thermophile Thermotoga neopolitana has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli.

The aim was to produce a thermostable enzyme that could be used to remove sugar residues from glucosylated natural products classified as flavonoids by applying a method combining extraction in hot pressurized water with enzymatic hydrolysis.

This thesis investigates the effect of policy measures on macroeconomic indicators in the EU member countries during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study uses data on four different policy measures as key independent variables, that together with control variables are regressed against three dependent variables, which are indicators of the economic situation of a country.

The concept of the Viking has existed since the 7th C, while the term ‘Viking Age’ was coined in the early 19th C. The Vikings and their era represent a shared vision of a glorious past, originating from the of Romantic ear and associated with Scandinavism. Within this shared concept, the Nordic countries have been able to project their own versions of identity: in Denmark, the king or farmer; in
A receiver receives information from a physical broadcast channel signal, wherein the receiver includes a blind processing and decoding unit that utilizes a hypothesis about how many transmit antennas were used to transmit the signal. Received signal characteristics are detected that indicate how many transmit antennas were used. Each transmit antenna hypothesis in a stored list represents how man A receiver receives information from a physical broadcast channel signal, wherein the receiver includes a blind processing and decoding unit that utilizes a hypothesis about how many transmit antennas were used to transmit the signal.

The purchasing strategies in the construction industry have been considered by many writers in construction management as short-term and arms-length. However, a different picture is portrayed in the manufacturing industry, where the purchasing strategies are mostly long-term to secure supply for production. Industrialized building is at the crossroad between construction and manufacturing, which rThe purchasing strategies in the construction industry have been considered by many writers in construction management as short-term and arms-length.

Using a relatively extensive panel data set on poverty –from 1998 to 2010– and information on household member characteristics –from 2007 to 2010–, both coming from a sub-sample of the Peruvian Household National Survey, a poverty dynamic analysis was carried out in this study. A spell approach was applied to calculate transient and persistent poverty and an ordered probit model was estimated to i
Love Addiction (an obsession with romantic relationships) is a phenomenon that has received increasing attention. This study examined whether narcissism is related to Love Addiction. The method that we used was a convenience test N = 200 and a questionnaire that measured Narcissism based on the scales Narcissistic Admiration and Narcissistic Rivalry (NARC) and Love Addiction based on the Love Addi
Since the end of the cold war issues concerning civil preparedness at the municipal level has been slumbering in Sweden. During WWII and the cold war Sweden had an extensive civil preparedness at all political levels. With the absence of the threat of war the civil preparedness in Sweden faded away. Now in a state of awakening the municipalities are starting to heighten the level of civil prepared
The aim of this study was to explore how six professionals from three organizations that handle cases of domestic violence, depict partner violence and how they describe and understand the problem of domestic violence in relation to individual and gender perspectives. To analyze this theme, I used qualitative method. Interviews was held with staff members from three different cells: a social servi
Organized crime in Sweden has increased despite the Government’s 34-point action program against gang crime. Previous studies show that schools have an important role in preventing young people from entering the criminal life. But there are no Swedish studies that examine teachers’ implementation of crime prevention measures and therefore, there seems to be a need to investigate this. The research
