This present study aims to explore the connection between social relationships with colleagues and intrinsic motivation at work. The sample consisted of 111 male and female teachers working with 4-9th graders in schools located in the south of Sweden. Data was collected using a web-based questionnaire. Results showed a strong positive correlation between the variable social relationships and the v

Protein design can be used to make better variants of a protein by changing the primary structure of proteins. An assay is needed to select for a better protein variant, generally these assays work on proteins with an activity. But sometimes proteins are designed to obtain a specific structure instead of an activity or function. These proteins often have no activity and there is no easy way to sel

Långt innan barnet säger sitt första ord börjar det analysera världen runt sig och mycket energi läggs på att forma kategorier för objekt, personer, situationer och händelser. Allt eftersom barnet bygger upp sitt lexikon krävs ytterligare kategorisering, även utifrån abstraktionsnivå. Skolåldern innebär nya möjligheter för barnet att utveckla sitt lexikon, både vad gäller storlek och organisation.

RNA interference (RNAi) has recently been discovered in the budding yeast Saccharomyces castellii. As in other organisms, artificial RNAi could be a useful genetic tool in budding yeast, but the method needs first to be established. S. castellii is also a useful model for telomerase studies, and a knockdown of the telomerase catalytic subunit Est2p could be a new way of unrevealing its functions a

The aim of this intervention study was to investigate possible effects of dialectical behavior therapy skills training (DBT-ST) for staffs at a residential treatment center for patients with serious mental illness. Eighteen staffs divided in two groups were assessed before and after participation in DBT-ST. The intervention lasted one year for each group. Mean number of self-injuries each month we

This thesis addresses many issues surrounding the simple question: why have trams? With city populations exponentially growing alongside concerns over the environment and the economy, tramways have become a resurging form of sustainable transportation for municipalities. Once an endangered transportation mode, torn up and scrapped to make room for the age of cars, tramways are phoenix artifacts of

This thesis investigates the volatility structures found in forward-looking fundamental valuations of the Swedish stock index OMXS30. The evaluated data constitutes daily observations of P/E ratios based on twelve months earnings estimates during the period 2009-01-02 until 2018-10-18. The analysis is conducted by applying a GARCH modelling framework to a log-return transformed return series deriv

Följande studie syftade till att undersöka om det finns en skillnad inom psykologisk empowerment mellan olika yrkesgrupper på ett internationellt bilföretag, som i denna studie refererades till som Bilföretaget AB. Studien utredde hur de potentiella skillnaderna såg ut och kunde förstås. Genom en blandad metod bestående av enkätundersökning och semistrukturerade intervjuer framkom vissa signifikanThe following study aimed to examine the potential difference within psychological empowerment between occupational groups at an international car company, in this study referred to as Bilföretaget AB. The study investigated potential differences between the groups and how these variances could be understood, by using a mixed methods research design including survey and semistructured interviews.

Att biodiversiteten minskar både regionalt och lokalt är en av vår tids största utmaningar. För att kunna bedriva ett framgångsrikt bevarandearbete i Europa genomförs så kallad biogeografisk uppföljning vars syfte är att övervaka och kartlägga utpekade arters utbredningsområde och populationsstorlek. För detta ändamål är det viktigt med pålitliga standardiserade metoder som är kostnadseffektiva me

Growing amounts of waste generation in remote areas without proper waste management systems is a problem to human health and the environment. The Amazon holds the biggest freshwater resources in the world, is a biodiversity hotspot and its communities are placed in distances that can take days by boat to be reached. A National policy with EPR instruments requires private companies to take-back pac

Geographical Information Systems (GISs) have shown to be of great help in the work at contaminated sites. Today there is an increase in the development of 3D modeling in many fields. However, to combine the advantage working with spatial data in a GIS and 3D modeling for subsurface soil data is limited. In this study, the possibilities of interpolating volumes of soil contamination in 3D were inve

Trade and economic growth have boomed over the latest centuries, and trade has for long been seen as an engine of economic growth. Research over the years has been consistent of the fact that there is a relationship between the two but it has not been established how this relationship works. This study contributes to earlier research by examining whether it is beneficial for domestic economic grow

Personer med funktionsnedsättning är mindre fysiskt aktiva än den övriga befolkningen i Sverige. Hinder i den fysiska miljön är en påverkande faktor för rullstolsburna personers aktivitetsutförande. Syftet med studien var att bedöma den fysiska miljön på träningsanläggningar i södra Skåne och beskriva tillgängligheten för personer som använder rullstol på träningsanläggningarna. Studien har en kva

Purpose: To explore whether the view on Business Models and Value Creation, can explain the lack of Venture Capital investments in green start-ups, by examining how green start-up Entrepreneurs, and Venture Capitalist investors, view these two factors. Theoretical framework: The aim of this thesis is to address some of the key knowledge gaps in research available today, regarding why there is a l

Since the 1970’s there has been several attempts within the UN at drafting a binding instrument on business and human rights. Up until today, none of the attempts at adopting binding standards have succeeded, with the only successful initiative being the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights – a voluntary set of guiding principles meant to further the respect for human rig

Mitt syfte med denna uppsats är att skapa förståelse för hur HeforShe, som arbetar med jämlikhetsfrågan genom att engagera alla världens män, hanterar problematiken kring mäns dominanta och förmånliga plats i samhället. Hur ser rörelsens budskap ut och hur porträtteras det för att mobilisera män? Är HeforShe feministisk? Dessa frågor undersöker jag genom en retorikanalys av HeforShe-rörelsens offi

Tidigare forskning antyder att kompetensupplevelse såväl som socialt stöd från både kollegor och chefer har en betydelse för arbetstillfredsställelsen. Mestadels av den forskning som gjorts har emellertid rört sociala yrkeskategorier så som sjuksköterskor samt lärare, och få studier har undersökt andra kategorier som till exempel musiker. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur kompetensupplevels

Flooding is a major risk to the ever increasing urban population, posing a threat to human lives but also causing traffic interruptions, economic losses and pollution. Built up areas are prone to flooding due to the changes of previously pervious surfaces being covered by buildings and impervious pavements, such as asphalt. Furthermore, the resulting increased surface runoff does often not get rou

Kandidatuppsatsen undersöker vilka arbetstagargrupper som omfattas av kategorierna i undantagskretsen, 1 § andra stycket LAS, och vilka centrala konsekvenser det medför. Det finns fem kategorier av arbetstagare som undantas från lagen (1982:80) om anställningsskydd och uppsatsen undersöker vilka arbetstagare som omfattas av varje kategori. Uppsatsen redogör för dem centrala konsekvenser som medföThe bachelor thesis investigates which groups of employees that are included by the categories in the exception circuit in 1 § second subparagraph LAS and what central consequences it entails. There are five categories of employees that are excluded from LAS and the thesis investigates which employees are included in each category. The thesis describes the central consequences that entails with t
