Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka i vilken utsträckning värdet av plattformsexpansion realiseras i användningen av en digital betalplattform som expanderar mot ett bredare ekosystem. Digitala betalplattformar utvecklas i allt större utsträckning mot bredare plattformsekosystem genom integration av nya funktioner och tjänster. Samtidigt är det fortfarande oklart i vilken utsträckning användare
This master’s thesis examines how the experimental project My new museum?, initiated by Malmö Art Museum, is used to develop museum practice under conditions of shifting cultural policy expectations, and increasingly hybrid forms of legitimation. The study asks (1) what kinds of participation the project enables and when participation entails a redistribution of power between visitors and museum,
The thesis examines the transformation process from archaeological publication to archaeological exhibition, with a focus on how the narrative on prehistoric identity changes. The purpose of the thesis is to shed light on how museums fulfil their mission of making research accessible to the public and has two research questions: What changes occur in the narrative when text material produced from
Who’s Worth Identifying examines the reasonings behind the decision to exclude the use of forensic investigative genetic genealogy, or FIGG, to identify unidentified human remains belonging to victims of crime in Sweden. After FIGG was used to solve a double homicide in Linköping in 2020 the Swedish Police Authority published a report on its use. After the publishing of the report the Swedish Auth
This thesis examines how museums display human remains in relation to artefacts within the same exhibition contexts. While previous research has largely focused on ethical questions, repatriation, and public reactions to human remains, fewer studies have systematically compared how museums materially and affectively differentiate human remains from other museum objects. The study investigates
This master’s thesis examines how climate responsibility is formulated in policy and governance documents of Swedish national museum authorities. Drawing on a text analysis, the study investigates how climate-related issues are articulated, what meanings are attributed to sustainability, and how these formulations are shaped by institutional contexts. The theoretical framework combines social ecol
This thesis examines how archivists perceive different archival spaces, with an emphasis on physical and digital archives. The study is based on four semi-structured interviews with Swedish archivists who all work in public archives. A key aim of the research has been to let the informants reflect on how the various archival environments make them feel – and which of the senses they invoke – rathe
In the early 20th century, researchers from folklore archives travelled across Sweden to collect stories from rural communities and peasant society, as this culture was widely believed to be disappearing as more people moved to urban areas. These stories became part of collections that are now documented as part of Swedish cultural heritage. In the 1970s, however, these collections were criticised
The purpose of this master thesis is to explore how platformization and artificial intelligence are reshaping power and governance in the digital economy, with a particular focus on the relationship between private technology companies and the public sector. Governments and institutions often present AI as necessary for innovation, economic growth, and efficiency, while researchers and representat
This master’s thesis studies several interviews conducted and recorded by the Swedish national archives in the 1980s. The interviews in question were carried out by a department at the national archives focusing specifically on acquisition and mapping of private archives. Between 1980 and 1991, employees at the department interviewed at least 20 people and recorded their stories, which were then a
This study evaluates an object-based image analysis (OBIA) approach using YOLOv11s-seg instance segmentation model for classifying thermally relevant land cover types from 0.16 m resolution orthophotos across three municipalities in Scania, Sweden. Six thermally relevant classes were defined: asphalt, bright roof, brown roof, dark roof, tree canopy and grass. The model was trained on annotations f
Landslide susceptibility models (LSMs) are essential to mitigate the danger of landslides, and with a changing climate posing potential risks to model accuracy, it is vital to understand the role that precipitation plays within LSMs and the effect shifting climatic conditions may have on model accuracy. This study produced a logistic regression LSM in the Blue Ridge Mountain region of North Caroli
I uppsatsen användes motor- och perceptions deltesten som tillhör Bender Visual- Motor Gestalt Test andra versionen (BGT-II) med en tillagd tidsvariabel för att utforska kognitiva nedsättningar i kliniska grupper. Skillnader utforskades både mellan vuxna deltagare med Autismspektrumtillstånd (ASD), Attention Deficits Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), komorbid ASD och ADHD (AuDHD) och friska kontrolleIn the present thesis the motor and perceptual subtests of the Bender Visual-Motor Gestalt Test second edition (BGT-II) with added exploratory time variables were utilized to explore cognitive deficits in clinical samples. Differences were explored both between adult participants with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), comorbid ASD and ADHD (AuDHD) and
Denna studie undersökte erfarenheter av tidigt moderskap, med särskilt fokus på förändring och kontinuitet i självupplevelsen. Inom psykologin har tidigt moderskap ofta förståtts genom ramverk som fokuserar på patologi eller moderns betydelse för barnet. Dessa ramverk och teorier formar också vilka delar av moderskapet som blir synliga, legitima eller möjliga att uttrycka, medan andra aspekter av This study explored experiences of early motherhood. Within psychology, early motherhood has often been understood through frameworks concerned with pathology or the mother’s function in relation to the child. Such frameworks and psychological theories also shape which aspects of motherhood become visible, or possible to express, leaving other parts of the transition less visible. This raises ques
This study explored how young Swedish adults aged 20–30 describe and understand experiences of weight-based bullying during their school years, as well as their ways of coping. A qualitative design using semi-structured interviews was employed. The sample consisted of nine young adults with a mean age of 24.7 years, including two males and seven females. All participants had lived with overweight
Environmental and health risks are increasing in large Mediterranean cities like Athens, where high urban density and limited vegetation intensify the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. This study analyzes the spatial patterns of surface urban heat in Athens, Greece, using satellite-derived Land Surface Temperature (LST) as a proxy for UHI conditions. LST datasets were derived from Landsat 8 thermal
Sociala medier har blivit en central arena där konsumtionsrelaterat innehåll, trender och knapphetspräglade produkter sprids i ett snabbt tempo mellan konsumenter. Samtidigt har användningen av knapphetstaktiker såsom begränsade upplagor och tidsbegränsade erbjudanden blivit allt vanligare inom marknadsföring. Tidigare forskning har främst fokuserat på sambandet mellan knapphetstaktiker, FOMO och
Denna studie undersöker hur hållbarhetsansvariga inom den svenska hotellbranschen förstår hållbarhetscertifieringars roll i branschens klimatomställning samt hur hållbarhet tolkas i relation till cirkulär ekonomi. Bakgrunden till studien är hotellbranschens centrala position i omställningen mot mer hållbara verksamheter, samtidigt som hållbarhetscertifieringar fått en allt större betydelse som ver
Denna kvalitativa studie uppmärksammar unga kvinnor i handelsbranschen och dess villkor till följd av en förändrad arbetsmarknad, där olika yrkesgrupper genomgått förändringar som lett till osäkra anställningar. Tidigare forskning uppmärksammar handelsbranschen som den bransch med flest osäkra anställningar. Handelsbranschen uppmärksammas dessutom som den bransch som sysselsätter flest kvinnor. S
