The study aims to investigate whether diversity can affect people's social intelligence. The study has been conducted with an experimental design, where two experimental groups were primed with a text describing a workplace with a high degree of diversity respectively non-diversity. A control-group read a neutral text. The texts were followed by the self-assessment test Tromsö Social Intellige

Syfte: Syftet är att undersöka om MiFID påverkat graden av underprissättning på den svenska marknaden. Således om det råder en skillnad i underprissättning före respektive efter MiFID infördes mellan reglerade och oreglerade marknader. Teoretiskt ramverk: Det teoretiska ramverket består av tidigare forskning och teori angående underprissättning vid börsintroduktioner. Ytterligare redogörs för vad

Röntgensjuksköterskors kompetens är en förutsättning för att garantera hög patientsäkerhet och vårdkvalité. Studiens syfte var att beskriva den kliniskt verksamma Radiological Technologists’ professionella kompetens inom diagnostisk radiologisk verksamhet i Japan. Metod var en enkätstudie med mätinstrumentet Radiographers’ Competence Scale som består av två domäner: “Nurse-initiated care” och “Tec

Abstract Problem: While it has been extensively studied which personal characteristics enhance entrepreneurial learning from failure, the mechanisms of how those characteristics contribute to entrepreneurial learning process has not yet been fully understood. Aim: Through a comprehensive model, this research aims to explore how different personal characteristics influence the different stages o

Syfte: Uppsatsen ämnar bidra till den internationella ”Corporate Governance”-litteraturen genom att analysera samband mellan den totala ersättningen till VD och ägarförhållandena i företagen mellan åren 2005-2009. Metod: Metoden som används är kvantitativ och har ett deduktivt förhållningssätt eftersom den baseras på tidigare forskningsresultat och teorier. Vidare analyseras relationerna mellan in

The following thesis examines the work of the early swedish transplant surgeons with special regards to the question of organ procurement. Through a careful reading of letters during 1971-1986, left from one prominent swedish transplant surgeons of that time – Sven-Eric Bergentz – I investigate how clinicians sought ways to solve the controversial problem of organ procurement. The institutionaliza

Studies have shown positive health outcomes from shared reading (SR) for various patient groups. In this article, we explore whether this applies to doctors as well by studying the dynamics of SR sessions and a subsequent participant focus group. Four SR sessions, with one short story and one or two poems each, were held with medical interns working at Skåne University Hospital, Sweden. A reflexiv

The scientific debate following the initial formulation of the “bad luck” hypothesis in cancer development highlighted how measures based on analysis of variance are inappropriately used for risk communication. The notion of “explained” variance is not only used to quantify randomness, but also to quantify genetic and environmental contribution to disease in heritability coefficients. In this pape

The interaction of oppositely charged lock- and key-colloids is investigated using computer simulations. We show that indented spheres, i.e., lock-particles, can be specifically assembled with spherical key-particles using solely electrostatic interactions in addition to a hard overlap potential. An analytic description of the entropic and energetic contributions is derived and supported by simula

Aims: Selective participation may hamper the validity of population-based cohort studies. The resulting bias can be alleviated by linking auxiliary register data to both the participants and the non-participants of the study, estimating propensity scores for participation and correcting for participation based on these. However, registry holders may not be allowed to disclose sensitive data on (in

We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically a controllable way of shifting the frequency of an optical pulse by using a combination of spectral hole burning, slow light effect, and linear Stark effect in a rare-earth-ion-doped crystal. We claim that the solid angle of acceptance of a frequency shift structure can be close to 2π, which means that the frequency shifter could work not only for op

Objective: To investigate the risk of stillbirth or neonatal death before 45 post-menstrual weeks in relation to gestational duration, stratified by body mass index (BMI) and parity. Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Data from the Swedish Medical Birth Register. Population: Singleton, cephalic births at between 39+0 and 42+2 weeks of gestation, 2005–2016 (n = 892 339). Methods: Relative risk r

This work investigates the performance potential of an engine running with partially premixed combustion (PPC) using commercial diesel engine hardware. The engine was a 2.01 SAAB (GM) VGT turbocharged diesel engine and three different fuels were run - RON 70 gasoline, RON 95 Gasoline and MK1 diesel. With the standard hardware an operating range for PPC from idle at 1000 rpm up to a peak load of 10

The paper present a parallel implementation of an image processing algorithm for the on-line, non-destructive quality assurance of the non-woven, fibrous web materials. The task of the algorithm is to compute the material microstructure descriptors. The premise underlying this work is that the microstructure determines the performance of the material and characterization of the microstructure may

BACKGROUND: This aggregated population study investigated the impact of the seemingly quasi-randomly assigned school winter holiday in weeks 6-10 (February to early March) on excess mortality in 219 European regions (11 countries) during the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring 2020. A secondary aim was to evaluate the impact of government responses to the early inflow of infected cases. METHODS: Data
