This small-scale experiment was a first attempt at testing the theoretical framework of Processability Theory (PT), a well-established theory of Second Language Acquisition (SLA), against data from online brain imaging technology (Electroencephalography – EEG). Event Related Potentials (ERPs) were extracted for 15 advanced beginners/intermediate-level learners of Swedish who were presented with gr
The thesis Den ?fria? rörligheten aims to give deeper knowledge to the notion of social sustainable mobility. My previous knowledge within the subject is focused around mobility being biased and therefore gaining particular groups of actors within society and leaving others worse off. Therefore I chose to do a critical analysis of social sustainable mobility and more precisely show which problems
Abstract This research focuses on the lives of three Icelandic women born early in the 20th century. The aim of this study was to try to understand how these women viewed their life and how they experienced the changes that Icelandic society has undergone in the 20th century. The women are viewed as active agents that shaped their own lives but also had to live within material and social constrai
A general method for modelling reflection in a multilayer structure is developed. This is used to simulate how a Gaussian Ti:sapphire femtosecond pulse reflects off of a periodic SiO2/TiO2 dielectric stack at normal incidence. The method is based on a transfer matrix approach combined with the fast Fourier transform in MATLAB. Both a simple Bragg reflector and a linearly chirped mirror is investig
The feminist and sociological debate of prostitution and pornography is an often polarized one. That seeps into the way media represent these practices and the ways these representations are studied. This thesis moves beyond that divisive debate by looking into labour relations and structures of exploitation through a case study of the first season of HBO’s The Deuce, which is a show about the 197
In the active exploration of novel biobased semicrystalline polyesters to replace petrochemical plastics, AB-type aromatic condensation polymerizations are relatively rarely investigated but gain growing attention due to the straightforward synthesis of AB-type monomers from diverse asymmetric biobased feedstocks. However, achieving high molecular weights through AB-type melt polycondensations is
Fine-grained windblown deposits (loess) in which fossil soils (palaeosols) are preserved are excellent records of past climate. However, so far paleoclimate reconstruction studies conducted on such loess-palaeosol sequences (LPS) in SE Europe were focused on the climate changes of the last one or two glacial-interglacial cycles, while almost no attention has been directed to the climate of the cur
Background: Small angle scattering techniques are beginning to be more widely utilised for structural analysis of biological systems. However, applying these techniques to study membrane proteins still remains problematic, due to sample preparation requirements and analysis of the resulting data. The development of styrene-maleic acid co-polymers (SMA) to extract membrane proteins into nanodiscs f
The Image of Sweden abroad usually comes with positive connotations. Some of Sweden’s perceived strengths, e.g. being open, authentic, caring, and innovative, are represented in the Strategy for the Image of Sweden (2013). However, changing circumstances, such as the implementation of internal border controls as a result of the migration crisis beginning in autumn 2015, along with a changing polit
The rapid progress in scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques in the last decade has induced an increasing need for manufacturing advanced SPM tips. One important case is conductive and transparent tips. For such tips, only a few techniques have been proposed. which are either expensive or have poor reproducibility. We here propose a simple and cheap sol-gel technique to prepare fibers with a s

This paper presents a straightforward method to convert non-uniformly sampled data to uniform samples in order to be processed by some off-line techniques such as system identification. In such scenarios, we deal with a finite-length measurement sequence. We assume periodic extension of the signals, which results in a simple system of linear equations. Furthermore, we take into account a number of
Companies aiming to be 'sustainability leaders' in their sector and governments wanting to support their ambitions need a means to assess the changes required to make a significant difference in the impact of their whole sector. Previous work on scenario analysis/scenario planning demonstrates extensive developments and applications, but as yet few attempts to integrate the 'triple bottom line' co
It is well established that bumblebees play a vital role in the ecosystem, not only as pollinators but as providers of other ecosystem services. Thus, it is important to have a good understanding of their habitat requirements and ecology. Bumblebees can learn to associate floral cues with rewarding and unrewarding flowers. The availability of resources in flowers is very dynamic as it varies durin
Today’s human population is continuously increasing and this also increases the need of exploiting natural habitats. Increased exploitation results in loss of important habitats for different organisms, which in turn leads to biodiversity loss. The loss of biodiversity endangers the supply of ecosystem services, which is fundamental for human well-being. To mitigate the loss of biodiversity and ec
The red deer is an animal that most of us know and expect when speaking of big animals in the Swedish fauna. But this has not always been the case. The red deer was almost extinct in the beginning of the 20th century, the life force is mostly regained today but there are still hurdles in the way. The increase in population of the red deer mean an economic conflict with land owners because of its
Snabba beslut är centralt för många aspekter av människans existens, från sport till frågor om liv och död. Forskning har visat att experter har ett övertag gällande choice reaction time-uppgifter som är relaterade till deras expertområde. Trots detta har inga studier slutgiltigt kunnat konkludera huruvida en skillnad finns mellan atleter och icke-atleter på en CRT-uppgift för generella stimuli. SSplit-second decision-making is of vital importance to many aspects of human existence, from life-and-death scenarios to sports. Studies have shown expert advantage in a given field on choice reaction time tasks within the area of expertise. Still, no conclusive studies on differences in this skill between athletes and non- athletes have been made on CRT tasks for general stimuli. The aim of this
Konsumenters ökande miljömedvetenhet har lett till att miljöpåståenden med tiden fått ett större kommersiellt värde. I syfte att stärka regleringen av miljöpåståenden inom marknadsföring presenterade EU-kommissionen i början av 2022 ett förslag på ett nytt direktiv. Det föreslagna nya direktivet innebär en ändring av direktivet om otillbörliga affärsmetoder som implementerats i Sverige genom mark
A part of a semi-supervised learning pipeline is built to improve the classification of humans and animals in a home security detector. An AI teacher model that automatically labels data, which is then in turn used to improve a light-weight AI student model is created. The AI teacher is trained on existing labelled household camera image data. Approaches with leveraged convolutional neural nets an
