Research conducted on industrial symbiosis often brings up the importance of trust and collaboration related constraints and enablers if inter-organizational efforts are to be pursued. This is also found in literature related specifically to Sweden and its agri-food sector. There are limited examples of collecting empirical evidence on trust in relation to IS and even less so with a focus on SMEs.

De senaste åren har diagnosticering av psykiatriska tillstånd utifrån DSM-manualens symtomkriterier varit föremål för debatt i vilken diagnosernas validitet och nytta har ifrågasatts. Lösningar på detta problem har under de senaste årens erbjudits utifrån flera olika angreppsvinklar, både vetenskapliga och dynamiska, med en gemensam förståelse kring att diagnostisering av psykiatriska tillstånd inDuring the past years, the art of diagnosing psychiatric conditions through the DSM manual have been debated and criticized and the validity of the diagnoses have been questioned. Solutions to this problem have during the past few years been offered from several different angles, both scientific and dynamic, with the common understanding that diagnosing psychiatric conditions is no easy task.

This study aimed to provide further understanding of how social workers use their own and client’s emotions in the relationship-based practice of social work. Further, we wanted to explore in which way social workers’ experiences of emotions can be understood as part of their professional practice. The study is based on a qualitative interview with eight social workers from several practices in so

This paper analyzes the set of political skills that middle managers use to navigate the aerospace industry. The current study considers Mintzberg’s (1985), Ferris et al.’s (2007), and Treadway et al.’s (2005) conceptualization of organizations as political arenas, will, and skills. Thus, it constitutes a theoretical base to create a new tailored political skills framework that could help aerospac

Associative inferences help us connect overlapping events and infer relationships between elements experienced at different times and places allowing the generalization of knowledge to entirely new situations. Recent theoretical accounts suggest that cognitive schemas, large-scale knowledge systems, serve as organizational frameworks for assimilating new but overlapping information and facilitatin

The possibilities of artificial intelligence (AI) have become evident in recent years, with new applications manifesting the potential. The field of supplier quality management is no exception, as AI shows promise of transforming the field. AI can boost efficiency, increase transparency while also removing human biases, and ensuring one coherent way of working across the organization. Understandin

The study was conducted through semi-structured interviews with six patients and three relatives, who are enrolled in an outpatient department and work ba

Privata skogsägares syn på att bevara natur vid installation av vind-kraft i skog De svenska skogarna är stora, nästan 80 procent av Sveriges yta är täckt av skog. Det låter mycket, men skogen har många användningsområden. Den ger oss virke och papper, möj-ligheter till vandring och turism, plats för vindkraft och är hem åt djur och växter. Samtidigt minskar antalet arter på vår planet, och både kThis study aimed to gain a deeper understanding of Swedish small forest owners’ perspectives on ecological compensation on their land in relation to wind farm construction, specifically how their sense of ownership influences their willingness to engage in such activities. To fulfil this aim, semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten private forest owners who had signed agreements for win

Alunskiffer är en svart lersten av kambrisk-tidig ordovicisk ålder som har en vid utbredning i Sverige och angränsande områden. Bergarten är rik på organiskt kol från ofullständig nedbrytning av marina mikroskopiska organismer som inlagrades i sedimentet på syrefria havsbottnar. Miljön gjorde det även gynnsamt för en del spårmetaller att deponeras, bland annat Uran, Nickel, Molybden och Vanadin. VExploitation of alum shale is a controversial subject in Sweden due to the history of pollution of the environment and groundwater, from past mining industries. The extraction of vanadium from alum shale is no different. Nevertheless the metal is a valuable resource used in tools, building, industries and aerospace materials. A look to the future reveals that vanadium may play a role in renewable

This report presents combinatorics studies in the search for a resonance of below 800GeVwhich decay product is a pair of hadronic jets from quarks. The resonance, predicted as a dark matter mediator, has couplings to dark matter particles as well as quarks and gluons. The resonance is created in association with a radiated object that can be either a photon or a jet. In the case of the radiation b

Photoionization is one of the most fundamental photoreactions that leads to the ejection of an electron and the formation of an ion. With the help of modern 3D momentum imaging spectrometers, the interplay between the time and frequency domain upon ionization is studied. In this work, single photoionization of helium is investigated in the few-cycle pulse regime of the driving infrared laser pul

Title: Development and continuity: A new institutional case study of a Danish public library in change Abstract: The purpose of this master's thesis is to discuss and analyse the relationship between the traditional core values belonging to the institution of the public library, and the development work that takes place at the institution. The thesis also investigates the relationships that i

International law related to patents, on the one side, and human rights, on the other, both constitute interesting areas of law on their own. From time-to time the two distinct fields of international law intertwine. A tragic but highly relevant example is the ongoing HIV/AIDS epidemic. The core of law-related considerations of the HIV/AIDS epidemic consists of specific parts of the two fields, na

Syftet med denna kandidatuppsats är att belysa hur man inom svensk rätt sett på problematiken rörande simulation av sinnessjukdom, när simulantens intention varit att undvika straff. Jag har använt mig av ett rättshistoriskt perspektiv och berör inte modernare lagstiftning än den som är stiftad tidi-gare än år 1929. Även om huvudsyftet är simulationsproblematiken har jag ansett det viktigt att ge The purpose of this bachelor’s essay is to show how the Swedish legal sys-tem has dealt with simulation of mental illness, where the simulator’s pur-pose was to avoid conviction. I have used a legal historical perspective and the essay does not concern more modern legislation than that made before the year of 1929. Though the main subject of the study is simulation, I have also described the rest
