Local research units, this article argues, play a very important role for the scientific field they belong to, for example by mobilizing financial support, offering job opportunities, attracting talented recruits, and providing adequate training. Little is known, however, about such units, at least in the fields under study here, i.e., studies of innovation, entrepreneurship and related phenomena.
Engineering education among children has the potential to spark their interest in technical subjects, overcome gender imbalances within the field, and empower young people with the tools to make positive changes in their communities. However, it can be difficult to integrate into existing school curricula, especially when resources are constrained.Here I present a one-year case study conducted in
Introduction Morphine may decrease the intensity of chronic breathlessness but data from a large randomised controlled trial (RCT) are lacking. This first, large, parallel-group trial aimed to test the efficacy and safety of regular, low-dose, sustained-release (SR) morphine compared with placebo for chronic breathlessness. Methods Multisite (14 inpatient and outpatient cardiorespiratory and palli
In this paper, a unique event is studied: the opening of Bank of Canada in 1935, the central bank note issuance monopoly and its impact on the note issuing chartered banks. Between 1935-1950, Canadian chartered banks had to gradually withdraw their notes from circulation. In a difference-in-differences analysis, I show that chartered banks constrained by new issuance limits experienced higher vola
Purpose: To examine the effects of Treatment Foster Care on youth with serious behavior problems. Method: Included studies are controlled trials with high or medium quality, published between 1990 and September 2017. The control group consists of youth with serious behavior problems in group care, and the follow-up time was at least 12 months. The review also examines ethical and economic aspects.
Purpose: Current approaches to sustainability science and education focus on (assessing and addressing) the external world of ecosystems, wider socio-economic structures, technology and governance dynamics. A major shortcoming of such approaches is the neglect of inner dimensions and capacities (which constrains education for sustainability as an end), and a limited capacity to facilitate reflecti
Objective: Develop a generic trans-disciplinary, skills-based capability framework for health professionals providing care for people with OA. Design: e-Delphi survey. An international inter-professional Delphi Panel (researchers; clinicians; consumer representatives) considered a draft framework (adapted from elsewhere) of 131 specific capabilities mapped to 14 broader capability areas across fou
This thesis is based on the two months I spent in Bolivia doing applied cultural analysis for a nongovernmental organization (ECAM) that works for women empowerment and gender equality. My intention is to explore the relationship between academia and activism by focusing on the approaches that have been pointed out as counterproductive in the struggle for gender equality. Specifically, the objecti
The purpose of this thesis is to examine if and how CEO ownership affects firm performance on Swedish companies depending on the market conditions. We would also like to examine the question if this relationship still holds when taking the possibility of an endogeneity determined relationship into account. A quantitative approach using regression analysis and descriptive statistics have been used.
We found that Swedish fashion companies are ambivalent towards enhancing or concealing their country of origin. Although brand managers acknowledge Swedish country of origin effects as positive in general, their marketing communication is sometimes more focused on positioning the brand as an international label without boundaries. Generally, Björn Borg tries to capitalize on their Swedish country
The removal of snow and ice from aircraft prior to take-off is a major task at all airports located in cold climates. Currently the removal of ice and snow is carried out using large amounts of costly and environmentally harmful glycol that is sprayed onto the outer surface of the aircraft. Tougher environmental regulations and a cost conscious market have created a growing need for alternative me
In myoelectric prosthesis design, there is often a trade-off between control robustness and range of executable movements. As a low movement error rate is necessary in any real application, this often results in a quite severe limitation on the dexterity of the user. One possible remedy for this could come from the use of multi-label machine learning methods, where complex hand movements can be ex
The purpose of the Master Thesis is, on one hand, to develop a traction control system, integrating and implementing two controllers in the vehicle, each of them previously designed and tested separately, to test them together to evaluate their performance. On the other hand, to develop accurate and well-performing controllers, the data acquisition needs to be precise so parameters and devices nee
