Does Modality Matter? A Comparison of False Memories and Memory Recognition in Auditory and Visual Conditions Using the DRM Paradigm

Människans minne är extraordinärt i sin förmåga att lagra stora mängder information men är samtidigt sårbart för förvrängningar och fel. Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigmet har i stor utsträckning använts för att undersöka förekomsten av falska minnen. Forskning har visat att deltagare ofta felaktigt identifierar semantiskt relaterade, men ej presenterade ord, så kallade “kritiska lockord” sHuman memory is extraordinary in its ability to retain vast amounts of information, yet it remains fallible, susceptible to distortion and error. The Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm has been widely used to study false memories, demonstrating that participants often falsely recognize semantically related, but non-presented, “critical lure” words as previously studied. This study focuses on

Modeling Star Distribution Using Spatial Poisson Process

This thesis explores the Poisson process in one and multiple dimensions, with particular focus on its application to modeling the spatial distribution of stars. The theory of both homogeneous and inhomogeneous Poisson processes is developed, along with key aspects such as thinning, distribution of inter-arrival times and nearest neighbor distribution. These are then extended to a three-dimensional

"Jag är mig själv – version 2.0" En studie om emotionellt arbete och normstyrd autenticitet på LinkedIn

I en digitaliserad arbetsmarknad har LinkedIn blivit en central plattform för unga studenters professionella självpresentation. Denna studie undersöker vilket emotionellt arbete som krävs för att balansera autenticitet och strategisk anpassning på plattformen. Genom sju semistrukturerade intervjuer med studenter i övergången mellan studier och arbetsliv analyseras hur känsloreglering, normmedveten

The lexical bias effect in experimentally elicited Swedish phonological speech errors

The lexical bias effect refers to the tendency for phonological speech errors to have lexical rather than non-lexical outcomes. This effect has often been used as a piece of evidence in theories of speech production, informing assumptions about monitoring and spreading activation. However, the lexical bias effect is known only from investigations of a relatively small set of languages, and the fin

Buffer Bonanza: Evaluating Methods of Determining Safety Stock on Raw Materials

Inventory management involves balancing conflicting priorities across production, purchasing, and stock control. Uncertainties in demand and lead times make it difficult to maintain optimal inventory levels, leading to the use of safety stocks. Its effectiveness depends on the chosen calculation method. This thesis, in collaboration with Company X, explores how different methods of determining saf

Student Perceptions of Achieving Intended Learning Outcomes with Generative AI: A Study in Swedish Higher Education Using Qualitative Methods

This qualitative study investigates the effect that Generative AI (GenAI) tools have on students' achievement of Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) in higher education institutions (HEIs), focusing on perceptions and utilizing the Structure of the Observed Learning Outcome (SOLO) Taxonomy. Conducting several semi-structured interviews, the study investigates the role of GenAI in potentially imp

Climate resilience and migration among Maasai pastoralists in Laikipia County, Kenya - A qualitative case study

This study investigates climate resilience and migration among Maasai pastoralists in Laikipia County, Kenya, addressing the urgent challenges posed by climate change to ecosystem-dependent livelihoods. Despite growing interest, qualitative studies linking climate impacts to human mobility outcomes among pastoralist communities remain limited. Drawing on climate resilience theory and climate-induc

Study on hydrotropic STEX extracted lignin as a hydrophobic coating material for food packaging

I dag är det lätt att få tag på information via exempelvis internet. Befolkningen besitter allt större kunskap vad gäller den globala uppvärmningen och vad som orsakar detta samtidigt som strävan efter att förebygga detta är stort. Lagar regleras utifrån ett mer miljövänligt perspektiv där fokus ligger på att ersätta material och industriella processer med hög klimatpåverkan. Plast har länge varitLignin is a by-product from the paper industry and has shown good liquid barrier properties according to previous studies. The objective of this work was therefore to study the liquid barrier properties of hydrotropic extracted lignin through steam explosion (STEX), obtained from spruce. The lignin was dissolved in three different solvents (concentrations: acetone 65 %v/v, ethanol (EtOH) 80%v/v an

Heating Up? A Quantitative Study of Climate Attitude Polarisation in Sweden

This thesis explores how climate change concern is polarised in Sweden, with the aim to increase the understanding to detect social impediments to successful progress on the issue, as well as to prevent conflictual divides. The thesis examines the distribution of climate attitudes through three different forms of polarisation: distributive opinion polarisation, group-based (opinion) polarisation,

Evaluating the costs of Centralization vs Decentralization of Inventory: A case study of a retail company

Efficient inventory management is crucial for successful supply chain management with it attributing up to 30% of an organization’s supply chain costs. A key strategic decision in inventory management remains whether to centralize or decentralize inventory with both decisions having their advantages and disadvantages. Most studies highlight the importance of an organizations supply chain network i

From waste to inclusive green growth: Assessing the socio-economic and environmental impact of textile recycling―A case study of Indonesia

While vital to Indonesia’s economic growth, the textile industry has exacerbated textile waste generation and environmental degradation, posing urgent sustainability challenges. Rising unemployment further compounds these issues, prompting policy responses such as the Bappenas’ Circular Economy Roadmap and National Action Plan 2025–2045, which aim to drive circularity and generate employment oppor

Achieving the Agenda 2030 requires the adoption and implementation of the goals at all levels of the government from the national to subnational level. Cambodia, as a member state of the UN, under the Cambodia Sustainable Development Goals (CSDG) Framework has also made a commitment to localise the SDGs to the subnational level. However, after the adoption of the CSDG framework in 2018, the progre
