This master’s thesis studies the way in which museum education officers use different exhibitions when conveying their message to visiting groups. Furthermore, it studies the consequences of this usage in relation to the visitor’s ability to obtain new knowledge. In order to find this out, I have observed school visits in four varied types of exhibitions in museums in the county of Scania in the s
With sustainability at the forefront of many cities’ urban development plans, it is possible that sustainable polices are targeted to attract a certain group of inhabitants. Malmö, Sweden, has implemented changes in order to gain international recognition as a green city but has also been experiencing growing residential segregation. The presence of urban greening projects is a keystone to human h
The increased capacity of elementary particle accelerators raises the demand for the simulation data of the experiments. One of the bottlenecks in the simulations is the QCD color structure calculation, which is usually treated using non-orthogonal and overcomplete sets of bases. The computational cost could be decreased significantly if orthogonal bases, such as the multiplet bases, were used ins
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur jag genom begränsningar kunde förenkla min kompositionsprocess. Jag genomförde kvalitativa intervjuer med tre kompositörer av olika bakgrund om vilka ramar och regler de använder när dem komponerar. Sedan sammanfattade jag och valde ut några av dem att följa strikt när jag själv komponerade för min sextett. Uppsatsen sökte besvara frågeställningarna: The purpose of this study was to examine how I could simplify my compositional process through limitations. I implemented qualitative interviews with three composers with different backgrounds about which frameworks and rules they use when they compose. Then I summarized and chose to follow some of them strictly when I composed for my sextet. The essay sought to answer the questions of issue: “W
The invention of the integrated circuit is a key milestone in the history of electronic circuits. Since its introduction the number of components on a chip have increased rapidly, making them more powerful and able to perform complex operations, but it has also changed the design process. Today different parts of a chip can be developed separately as Intellectual Property (IP) and then put togethe
Research purpose: This study aims at finding out (1) how retailers' sales can be influenced if customers are offered to use SSTs (self-service technologies) for navigating themselves directly to the items they want to buy. (2) how the shopping experience can be influenced if customers are offered to use SSTs for navigating themselves directly to the items they want to buy. Methodology: Based o
Due to climate change, emissions of greenhouse gases must be reduced rapidly and natural resources must be used more sustainably. The public sector should lead the way to a more sustainable society and healthcare has been identified as an area that contributes to large emissions. The purpose of this study was to identify measures that can be taken to reduce the climate impact of the retirement ho
The aim of this thesis is to widen the understanding of the gender pay gap by introducing the factor of sexuality. Same-sex couples have legal rights that are relatively new; how does our understanding of labor division and pay change when more data on queer people emerge? This is achieved by using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) from the year 2017 and making multiple regressions,
The thesis examines what makes a cross-organizational collaboration between a multinational company and an NGO successful, by revieweing what factors play an important role in a project's life cycle, from a corporate perspective. The thesis is based on project management theories within the subjects of international business and cross-organizational teams. A qualitative research strategy with
Financial advisors use paper-based questionnaires to retrieve the information useful to address the clients toward the right financial products and investment mix. In 2004 the European Parliament issued the MiFID (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive) that has the objective to increase competition and investor protection, and levels the playing field for market participants in investment ser
Sammanfattning Inledning: Framgångsfaktorer har i litteraturen länge diskuterats. Begreppet definieras som de specifika tillgångar och kompetenser genom vilka ett företag uppnår framgång, bland annat genom långsiktig tillväxt, lönsamhet och konkurrenskraft. Framgång är i sig ett komplext begrepp, vilket definieras och analyseras i uppsatsen för att fullt ut kunna undersöka framgångsfaktorer. Vidar
Urbanisation is an inevitable part of globalisation. With the globalised food chain in place to feed the growing number of people living in urban areas. A remedy is often expressed to be urban farming, with local, sustainable production of food. This study presents a preliminary assessment of the dynamics between urban farms and residents in Malmö. Urban farms produce available food for the reside
Uppsatsen syftar dels till att genom jämförelse mellan privat- och offentlig sektor klargöra kritikrättens gränser, det vill säga när en arbetstagares kritik mot arbetsgivaren övergår till illojalitet, dels till att klargöra hur gränsdragningen ser ut mellan att vara lojal respektive illojal. Vidare kommer uppsatsen att utreda under vilka omständigheter det föreligger sakliga skäl för uppsägning, The purpose of this thesis is to clarify the boundaries of the right to criticize an employer and to compare this right between the private and public sectors. It includes determining when an employee's criticism of their employer crosses into disloyalty. The thesis also aims to define the distinction between loyalty and disloyalty and to examine the circumstances under which valid grounds for
This study aims to increase the understanding of the parents' experiences with children sitting at home. Furthermore, we want to contribute knowledge of how parents experience the relationship with professionals and how they experience the support offered. The research method we used was qualitative, with six semi-structured interviews. We chose parents because their children are of primary sc
The purpose of this thesis was to outline the normative structure and regulation of emotional expressions, i.e. the emotional regime, for young people concerning climate change. Climate change is a global issue implying several challenges for social workers, such as individuals experiencing emotional distress, which young people have been emphasized as especially vulnerable to. Youths’ abilities t
One of the issues of modern cities is their urban design which is not structured to allow human interaction and promote a feeling of community within their inhabitants. The constant growth and shortages of land are cause to the global housing crisis which requires densification. In the current capitalistic context, urban design becomes just another pawn of this profit making machine, causing gentr
The aim of this research is to study three particle correlations in pseudo-rapidity for the $\Lambda^0$,$\Xi^0$, and $\Omega^-$ hyperons with a focus on their baryon and strangeness quantum numbers. The two primary questions asked are, into which particles are these quantum numbers typically conserved, and what are their correlations in momentum space. The research investigates these problems by e
The risk for drinking water scarcity does not only concern developing countries and arid places. In its 2023 report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has identified water scarcity as one of Europe’s key risks out of five in the foreseeable future. Sweden experiences water shortages more and more frequently during summer, and the need to protect groundwater resources is imperative. In
Populationen av västerländska akademiker och studenter visar tecken på ideologisk bias i termer av sin sammansättning och villighet att självcensurera. Denna studie undersökte en svensk population av studenter (N = 89), huvudsakligen från samhällsvetenskapliga områden, i termer av ideologi (Moral Foundations; MFQ-20 och Social Dominance Orientation; S-SDO). Studien undersökte också relationen mellThe population of western scholars and students shows signs of ideological bias in terms of its composition and willingness to self-censor. This study surveyed a Swedish student population (N =89) of predominantly social scientists on ideology (Moral Foundations; MFQ-20 and Social Dominance Orientation; S-SDO). The study also explored the relation between self-censorship (SC), age, gender and univ
Bakgrund: Demenssjukdom är en vanlig orsak till funktionsnedsättningar främst bland äldre och påverkar både kognitiva och fysiska förmågor samt leder till mindre självständighet och delaktighet. Det finns flera arbetsterapeutiska interventioner för personer med demens, men kartläggningar och utvärderingar av interventioner som har vetenskapligt stöd behövs. Syfte: Att kartlägga arbetsterapeutiska
