Criminality has always been a problem within society. During the last couple of years, we have seen an increase in young people's involvement in crime, which could indicate that the ongoing preventive work is not successful enough. The aim of this study was therefore to explore how people, who have been involved in illegal activities, describe the purpose of criminality and its reasons. We cho

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an important part of today's business operations as technology advances. As a result of these developments, significant adjustments are taking place in the labor market. Such as employment structures and ways of working, due to AI's ability to replace and, in many cases, even perform human work responsibilities better than humans. Given the role of a

The aggregation of α-synuclein into fibrils has been long proven to be closely related to the toxicity leading to Parkinson’s disease. In this process, medium-sized intermediates called oligomers are formed, a heterogeneous group of aggregates formed by a small number of monomers. While fibrils have been proven to cause little to no toxicity, oligomers have been demonstrated to induce cell death.

9/11 – 2001. 3000 Americans have died as a direct result of the al-Qaida sanctioned terror attacks against the USA. The Americans were in tears, tears that soon would emerge into anger, hatred and determination – Determination to once and for all eliminate the terrorists that performed these despicable acts against their beautiful, free nation. But also, as the President proclaims, to spread the i

Internal migration has become debatable issue in China, since there are more and more migrant workers after social economic reform. Those migrant workers, attracted by better job opportunities in cities, have made great contribution for urban areas; but at the meantime they are suffering from restrictions caused by household system. In this thesis the main purpose is to figure out the links betwee

Sjömansyrket är till karaktären ett speciellt yrke där en grundförutsättning är att arbetstagare rör sig över nationsgränser. Genom arbetets natur och dess globala prägel har det historiskt varit ett yrke som särskiljts från den normala inkomstbeskattningen och varit föremål för undantagsregler. Både konkurrensskäl och kolliderande beskattningsanspråk från olika stater är bidragande orsaker till dThe seaman profession is by nature a special trade where a basic requirement is that employees move themselves over national borders. By the nature of the work and its global character it has historically been a profession that has been separated from normal income taxation and has been subject to exemption rules. Both competitive reasons and colliding taxation claims from different nations are co

Background: The current mass proliferation of information and communication technology (“ICT”) has created the ability to communicate with customers and manage energy production in unprecedented ways. With the arrival of “smart” energy meters and wireless communication, a new level of customer interaction is possible. In this scenario, a “smart grid” is created in which multiple energy meters are

Trots att den psykiska ohälsan ökar, upplevs det fortfarande som stigmatiserande. En vanlig orsak till detta är okunskap. I forskning har det framkommit att människor erhåller mycket av sin kunskap genom filmer, varvid den framställning som görs i film påverkar den förståelse och de attityder som omgivning kommer ha till psykisk ohälsa. En film där psykisk ohälsa är central är “A star is born” fråAlthough mental illness is an increasing problem, it’s still stigmatizing. A reason for this is a lack of knowledge. Research has shown that people obtain much of their knowledge through films, whereby the presentation made in movies affects the understanding and the attitudes that the environment will have to mental illness. A film where mental illness is central is "A star is born" fro

Molnens roll i klimatsystemet har studerats och deras påverkan på solens inverkan på jordens energibalans. Jordens albedo påverkar energibalansen genom att den påverkar hur mycket av solens instrålning som reflekteras eller absorberas. Moln påverkar jordens albedo och spelar därför en viktig roll i denna balans. Molnbildning sker till nära 100% i troposfären och där finns allt det vi kallar väder.The role of clouds in the climate system has been studied and their impact on the Sun's impact on the Earth's energy balance. The Earth's albedo affects the energy balance by influencing how much of the Sun’s radiation is reflected or absorbed. Clouds affect the Earth's albedo and therefore play an important role in this balance. Cloud formation occurs almost 100% in the tropospher

Today most architecture being built has a lifespan somewhere between 60 to 120 years. In some cases less, in a few cases more. Construction of buildings is a huge consumer of both energy and resources. In the architectural field environmental sustainability are keywords in the design process. Yet, the lifespans of buildings are not being discussed to any great length. The average human life expect

Samhällets ökade miljömedvetenhet kopplas ofta i byggbranschen till energieffektivitet. För en större skillnad i energianvändning kopplade till bostäder behöver mer fokus ligga på de redan existerade bostäderna och inte bara nyproduktion. En byggnads energianvändning innefattar bland annat brukarvanor. Det saknas objektiva mätningar gällande brukares vädringsvanor och hur de påverkar energianvändnSociety's increased environmental awareness is often linked in the construction industry to energy efficiency. A building's energy use includes, among other things, user habits. There’s a lack of objective measurement regarding users' ventilation habits and how they affect energy use. The purpose of this report is to find out how users in exhaust-ventilated apartment building from the

In 2020 an article was published about rough sex among youth. The article spread on social media and was the beginning of a debate in Swedish media that came to be known as the “rough sex debate”. The aim of this study is to achieve a greater understanding of the phenomenon of “rough sex” among youth. To achieve this aim, we analyze and highlight the discursive differences in the debate on “rough

Over the last decade, 1.8 billion people worldwide have been affected by disasters triggered by natural hazards and 740 000 lives have been lost. Due to climate change, these numbers are predicted to rise dramatically in the upcoming years. In disaster prone areas, remote communities and lower income countries are disproportionately affected and often lack the resources to prepare. Locating victim

Research links motivation to well-being and personality. There have also been studies regarding the connection between personality and health. In one scientific study, certain personality traits and greater motivation predicted high levels of well-being, but greater motivation also predicted lower well-being when the individual had a high tendency to worry and pessimism. In order to help organisat
