Att sälja sin bostad hör till en av livets största affärer. Ett viktigt moment är att bestämma ett utgångspris för sin bostad, men det råder oklarheter kring vilken inverkan utgångspriser har på utfallet i en försäljning. Studien ”List prices in Icelandic residential property sales – A strategic tool for achieving higher sales prices or quicker time-on-market?” tar sikte på Islands bostadsmarknad,In recent years, Iceland has experienced a growing demand for residential housing and the average square-meter price for apartments and single-family homes in the Capital Region has almost doubled between 2010 and 2019. Property sales in Iceland are most commonly intermediated by real estate brokers and the sales process stands in contrast to other Nordic countries, since it involves a bidding pro

Effective conservation strategies require an understanding of how species respond to environmental change. This study was undertaken to evaluate the behavioural response of spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi yucatanensis) to changing habitat conditions, in terms of activity budget, habitat use, and range. Using data collected in the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve between 2014-2019 on activity budgets, t

The purpose of this thesis is to explain and analyze the project resilience practices developed and demonstrated in project management during times of crisis, as well as to analyze the correlations of these practices with project success, both in the short and long term. This project is also part of the Swedish Project Review, a longitudinal study benchmarking trends and areas of improvement in pr

Sverige står inför en mycket stor investering inom järnvägen. Nya stambanor kommer att koppla samman Sveriges stora regioner och samtidigt minska restiden mellan dem. Järnvägen ses även som ett klimatsmart resealternativ, vilket bidrar till att fler väljer att ta tåget framfört till exempel flyget. Banorna kommer att utsättas för olika väder beroende på var i landet de befinner sig. Detta gör attSweden is facing big investments in railway infrastructure. The railway is seen as one of the better ways to travel to reduce the individual's carbon imprint. New mainlines will be built to interconnect the biggest cities and reduce travel time. Different parts of the line will have different kinds of weather, this results in different solutions depending on where in the country. New main line

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

The phenomenon of global warming has become a fact, however; the uncertainty is about the magnitude and acceleration of its manifestations. Global mean sea level rise is one of the results induced by global warming and is happening with an undetectable accelerated pace. The world international organizations and governments are devoting efforts and initiatives in a trial to manage global warming in

Utländska studier på militära veteraner visar på att psykiska sjukdomar, såsom Posttraumatiskt stressyndrom (PTSD) till följd av missionen förekommer. Samtidigt som studier på svenska militära utlandsveteraner uppvisat en lägre frekvens av PTSD. Den här studien undersökte kvantitativt hur det psykologiska stödet ser ut och hur det påverkar förekomsten av PTSD hos de svenska militära veteranerna. SInternational studies of military veterans display that psychological illnesses, like Posttraumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD), exists as a result of the missions. Studies of Swedish military veterans indicates a lower frequency of PTSD, than foreign military veterans. This study used a quantitative method to investigate how the psychological supportive functions by the Swedish armed forces affect the

The General Data Protection Regulation are coming as a response to the outdated Directive from 1995. With this, a lot tougher pressures are put on organisations regarding the demand for compliance, which is mainly done through higher penalties, giving organisations an in-citement to oblige. Seen from the perspective of information systems, organisations have to implement the requirements of the re

With an increased importance of working capital management and supply chain risks, supply chain finance has gained an increasing interest from organizations across the world. A buyer-centric supply chain finance solution can create a ‘win-win’ situation for buyers and suppliers, by allowing buyers to extend payment terms and suppliers to get payments in advance. This allows both buyers and supplie

Sexualbrottsmål där barn är målsägande hanteras i viss mån annorlunda än sexualbrottsmål där målsägande är vuxen. Bland annat görs avsteg från vissa processuella principer till förmån för barnets hälsa men även andra faktorer inverkar på hur domstolen hanterar den bevisning som presenteras. Eftersom rätten består av människor har också subjektiva uppfattningar alltid inflytande på bevisvärderingenCases of sexual abuse are in some aspects conducted differently in the judicial system when the plaintiff is a child, compared to the same type of crimes against an adult. Some procedural principles are put aside in favor of the mental health of the child and other factors affect the manner in which the evidence is treated. Furthermore, as the court consists of people, the subjective brain will al

Purpose: During discussions at the ASC 2013 Conference, we were stimulated to consider acting,learning and understanding in the context of organizational change, and in particular the relationship between organizational actors and external analysts. This article therefore seeks to review from a cybernetic perspective how a socio-technical toolbox can help to facilitate organisational change, and t

Background: Transanal endorectal one-stage pull-through (TERPT) procedure in children with Hirschsprung’s disease (HD) has gained worldwide acceptance. However surgical success is often reported separately, while the necessity for true reoperation is difficult to establish. Aim: To evaluate the incidence of reoperations following TERPT procedure. The findings will be important in counseling and pl

Internal dynamics of dansylated poly(propyleneamine) dendrimers (POPAM, G1-G4) in solution and excitation energy transfer from dansyls to eosin in POPAM-eosin complexes have been studied by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Combining the results from fluorescence anisotropy and the MD simulation studies suggests three time domains for the internal dyn

Background. Sepsis is a serious and common condition with high mortality and morbidity. The public awareness, knowledge, and perception of sepsis in Sweden are unknown. Methods. A survey was performed using an online interview distributed to adults, aged 18-74, between March 6 and 9, 2015. Results. A total of 1001 people responded to the survey.

The aim of this study was to find models for turbulent fragmenting forces in the high-pressure homogeniser from data available in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations with Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) turbulence models. In addition to the more common RANS k-epsilon turbulence models, a Multi-scale k-epsilon model was tested since experimental investigations of the geometry impl

Background: Soils contain the largest stock of organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems and changes in soil C stocks may significantly affect atmospheric CO2. A significant part of soil C is present in cultivated soils that occupy about 35 % of the global land surface. Agricultural intensification has led to practices that may decrease soil organic carbon (SOC), and agricultural management has

The application of the easily available and inexpensive chromatographic matrix hydroxyapatite for reusable and reversible immobilization of enzymes for enzyme thermistor-based flow injection analysis of glucose and Urea was tested. The immobilization was achieved by simple affinity adsorption of glucose oxidase and urease by a suitable pH-induced alteration of the protein charge. A linear detectio

The Thomson multitaper estimator has become successful for spectrum analysis in many application areas. From the aspect of efficient implementation, the so called Welch or WOSA- Weighted Overlap Segment Averaging, has advantages. In the Welch estimator, the same, time-shifted, window is applied to the data-sequence. In this submission, the aim is to find a Welch estimator structure which has a sim
