This thesis is an exploratory, qualitative analysis of the participants in English-language YouTube audiovisual content featuring reactive playthroughs of Japanese horror video games. The aim is to understand the identity, motivations and lived experience of these participants to understand how they culturally translate Japanese horror. The research draws on data collected from one semi-structured

Denna studie utforskar de potentiella hoten mot maskulinitet som uppfattas i samhällen med hög könsjämlikhet och undersöker om sådana hot kan kopplas till en ökning av incel (ofrivilligt celibat) karaktärsdrag bland den manliga befolkningen. Forskningen använder en kvantitativ metod med två experimentella villkor: ett med en hög jämställdhet och ett med en låg jämställdhet, som skildrar kontrasterThis study explores the potential threats to masculinity perceived in societies with a high gender equality and examines whether such threat can be linked to an increase in involuntary celibate (incel) traits among the male population in. The research employs a quantitative methodology with two experimental conditions: one featuring a high equal scenario and another a low equal scenario, depicting

This thesis conducts an in-depth investigation of the conformal two Higgs doublet model (C2HDM) in its most general form, integrating complex couplings λ5, λ6, λ7 and a CPviolating phase e−iδ. This setup enables a detailed exploration of $\mathcal{CP}$-violation and its impact on electroweak phase transitions (EWPT) and gravitational wave (GW) signatures. Using the Higgs basis simplifies tree-le

This thesis posits that the 1948 mermaid film Miranda, made in the United Kingdom is an example of a pivotal moment, or series of moments, in mermaid image history. Through Aby Warburg’s method of the Bilderatlas, the thesis will identify and map out how Miranda connects with surviving mermaid images and created new image types that are now prevalent within modern mermaid images. Through this mapp

Social sustainability is of growing concern for global businesses as EU legislation CSRD, entered into force January 2024. The legislation requires businesses and enterprises to report on their social sustainability impacts. United Nations Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights (UNGPs) is the framework where human rights due diligence is explicitly described as an important tool for ide

Leaf Area Index (LAI) is an important parameter for monitoring vegetation status and estimating crop yield, essential for precision agriculture, forestry and natural resource management. Therefore, estimating the LAI with high spatial resolution and temporal flexibility is crucial for providing precise and timely information to make informed decisions. This study focuses on optimizing the estimati

Mangrove forests are highly productive and vital ecosystems within the tropical and subtropical latitudes. They are considered biodiversity hot spots and hosts ha vast variety of species, both terrestrial and marine, and they are also found to be one of the most productive carbon pools in the world. Mangroves additionally provide coastal communities with timber but also important shelter from tsun

The purpose of the study was to study the overall support given to community-placed children, their birth parents and foster parents when a child is placed in care. The different supports have therefore been studied and inventoried by collecting data from a total of (n=254) respondents from more than 85 Swedish municipalities. The respondents were professional social workers working within social

Den ökade förekomsten av extremväder, temperaturförändringar och översvämningar belyser behovet för svenska kommuner att bygga upp sin motståndskraft. Klimatförändringarna är en av vår tids mest brådskande utmaningar och Sveriges kommuner besitter ett ansvar att anpassa våra städer till klimatförändringarnas konsekvenser. Uppsatsen ämnar att undersöka svenska kommuners övergripande klimatanpassninThe increasing events of extreme weather, temperature changes and flooding shines light upon the need for Swedish municipalities to build up their resilience. With climate change being one of the most urgent challenges of our time, Sweden’s municipalities bear the crucial responsibility of adapting to its transformative effects. This work examines the municipalities’ overall climate adaptation eff

Problem description An increased importance of data management in organization is emerging. (Desai et al., 2022) Sharing and managing product data, information and knowledge are key aspects of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). (Terzi et al., 2010) It is both a technological and strategic challenge to implement a PLM system strategy in a company. (Gehrke et al., 2020) There also exists barriers c

AI för Livmoderhalscancerscreening: Nästa Kapitel i Sjukvårdens Utveckling? Svensk sjukvård möter idag stora utmaningar med hårt belastad personal och ökande hälsodata. Samtidigt växer den medicintekniska marknaden snabbt med nya innovationer som präglas av framfarten av artificiell intelligens (AI). Men vilket område inom sjukvården har störst potential för AI?The biomedical market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the increasing volume of health data and the need for advanced technologies to manage and analyze this information. At the same time, the industry is facing additional challenges such as the shortage of healthcare professionals and an aging population. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to become essential in this industry,

Matematik handlar ofta om något slags abstrakta objekt och relationer mellan dem: tal och olikheter, mängder och funktioner, algebraiska strukturer och strukturbeverande funktioner. Kategoriteori utgår från observationen att dessa objekt och relationer kan studeras abstrakt utan att ta hänsyn till exakt vad objekten och relationerna är: det väsentliga är vilken struktur de har. Strukturen består a

Hydrogels are polymeric networks capable of retaining large amounts of water. They have high biocompatibility and have thus received great attention for various biomedical applications, including as wound dressing and drug delivery agents. They can be fabricated using several methods and from various polymers. In this project, we explored the enzymatic crosslinking of gelatine hydrogels using micr

In order to safely design accelerator-based research facilities, such as the European Spallation Source, shielding calculations are carried out using Monte-Carlo particle simulations. However, these calculations gain high uncertainty when large amounts of shielding are needed, due to decreasing particle statistics over distance and mass. To circumvent this issue, variance reduction methods are use

The law regarding sexwork in Sweden was enforced in 1999, where sexwork is lawful but buying sex is not. Due to the fact that the law is grounded on a radical feminist standpoint, it has led sexworkers to societally be seen as victims of diverse forms of violence, including sexual and has led sexworkers to find themselves in difficult situations. This thesis focuses on the different life stages pr
