This study aims to analyze the impact of digital transformation on internal control of CCB and examine how digital transformation reshapes CCB’s internal control framework (based on the COSO framework) and the challenges the company encounters in digital transformation.This paper adopts agency theory as the theoretical perspective and uses COSO as the main framework.Based on the comprehensive case

The primary objective of this study is to explore the perceptions of three inclusive marketing strategies—racial representation, AI-driven personalization, and unfiltered beauty—on consumer perceptions of brand authenticity and their connections to long-term brand loyalty in the makeup sector. The study aims to gain insight into how the combined application of these strategies shapes the perceived

Context. The adverse effects of interstellar extinction makes the optical range unsuitable for spectroscopic analysis of stellar populations in dust-obscured regions of the Milky Way. With new instruments available, high-quality spectroscopy in the near-infrared (near-IR or NIR) range is now feasible. However, this region of the electromagnetic spectrum is relatively unexplored for the purpose of

This study compares the financial performance of Islamic and conventional banks across the pre-, during-, and post-Covid-19 period from 2018 to 2024. Using the CAMEL framework, a Financial Performance Index (FPI) was developed to evaluate stability and resilience. The results show that Islamic banks consistently achieved higher FPI particularly during and post pandemic, indicating greater overall

Mental health issues among Swedish school children are a recurring concern. Although school health teams are legally assigned to primarily work on health promotion and prevention, previous evaluations have found these efforts to be insufficient. Based on our own observations during a school-based internship, we noticed how school nurses and school counselors carry out this work differently. The ai

Syftet med denna studie var att kvalitativt utforska lärares syn på kunskapsbildning och kommunikation om klimatförändringar med elever i Vietnam, ett land med förhöjd klimatrisk. Med utgångspunkt i Hanoi genomfördes åtta (N = 8) semistrukturerade intervjuer med lärare på temat klimatundervisning. Materialet bearbetades sedan i en tematisk analys med abduktiv metod: delvis datadriven, delvis genomThis study qualitatively explored a sample of teachers' climate change conceptualizations and communication with school students in Vietnam, a country with high susceptibility to major climate change-related impacts. Fieldwork was conducted in Hanoi, where eight (N = 8) teachers were interviewed in a semi-structured format, focusing on the topic of climate change education. The material was ex

Miniaturisation of weapons and other tools is a phenomenon seen throughout the Viking Age in Scandinavia. Predominantly using the theory of semiotics, previous publications on miniature weapons have reached similar conclusions as to the functions of these objects. Three main interpretational threads can be seen repeated throughout the previous research; miniature weapons as symbolic objects, minia

Att driva ett lantbruk är som att sköta ett komplext ekosystem i miniatyr – varje beslut om mark, vatten och grödor påverkar naturen långt bortom gärdeskanterna. Men att mäta och bevisa den påverkan är ofta tidskrävande och kostsamt för lantbrukaren. Samtidigt samlar myndigheter redan in stora mängder miljödata, från vattenkvalitet till markanvändning, för helt andra syften än certifiering. Tänk oThe aim of this study was to explore the potential of using existing environmental moni-toring data as a basis for environmental certification of farms within primary agricultural production. Three research questions guided the work: which indicators of agricultural environmental impact can be identified in available monitoring data, which criteria these data must meet to be applicable in a certif

The LVU campaign refers to a wave of criticism and disinformation in Swedish and international media between 2021 and 2024 claiming that Sweden’s social services systematically remove children primarily from Muslim families without legitimate reasons. This study examines how Swedish media constructed stories about the campaign and its key actors. The purpose of this study is to identify central t

The EU Taxonomy is one of the most mature and comprehensive classification systems for sustainable activities. It aims to increase information transparency, reduce corporate greenwashing, and direct capital flows toward environmentally sustainable economic activities. Starting in 2022, companies have been required to disclose the share of their economic activities that align with the Taxonomy. Thi

The Moon’s origin is an exciting topic that many scientists believe started with a colossal collision between early Earth and a Mars-sized body. In this study, we examine the possibility that Theia, a body known to have existed, may have formed in a stable orbit between Earth and Mars, and eventually collided with our planet due to orbital changes over time. To explore this event, we use the REBOU

This thesis used the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) framework with the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) methodology to evaluate the environmental performance of packaged fresh chicken. The study compared three modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) configurations, with the difference in their tray: a baseline tray and two mono-material alternatives. The LCA, with PEF guidelines where applicable, fo

The following paper analyses public participation and its form and changes in planning processes that shift from phases of temporary urban adaptations to permanent spatial transformations. Aiming to gain a deeper understanding of both the potential and practical implementation of public participation throughout such processes, a theoretical framework was created based on theories of temporary urba

Norr om Gotland ligger Fårö, en ö känd för dess säregna naturlandskap. Det är en lantlig miljö präglad av jordbruk, men också ett populärt sommarresmål för turister på grund av det vackra landskapet och den pittoreska arkitekturen. Denna popularitet kommer dock med ett högt pris. Kulturarvet köps upp och byggs om, höjda bostadspriser orsakar en befolkningsminskning samtidigt som fritidshus byggs iFårö is an island north of Gotland famous for its captivating natural landscape. It’s a rural setting characterized by agriculture, but also a popular summer destination for tourists because of the beautiful scenery and picturesque local architecture. However, the popularity comes at a cost. The cultural heritage is increasingly bought up and redeveloped, excessive housing prices cause a decline i

Residential sprinkler systems have been mandatory in newly built Swedish care homes for the elderly and group homes for people with disabilities since 2012. The regulation was introduced on the assumption that sprinklers are a cost-effective life-safety measure for a highly vulnerable population. This thesis re-examines that assumption through a three-part study: (i) a review of international stud

The Swedish needle exchange program is the result of public health policy - a policy with certain aims. Selling syringes is illegal in Sweden. The only way to acquire such paraphernalia is through one of the Swedish needle exchange programs and, by extension, be made subject to the aims and requirements of this policy. Such aims and requirements include being able to identify oneself, give blood s

BastuBaћar is a public sauna experience carved into the limestone coast of Sliema, Malta - a reimagining of the long-lost Chalet, once a beloved landmark of leisure and gathering. This project introduces an unfamiliar, experimental ritual to the Maltese Islands - a guided sauna and bathing experience open to all. A synthesis of the Swedish word for sauna and the Maltese word for sea, the project

This thesis examines social workers’ experiences of collaboration with schools and the police in preventing youth crime within the SSPF framework. A qualitative approach was applied, with data collected through six semi-structured video-call interviews. Participants were recruited through purposive and snowball sampling, and thematic analysis identified key themes related to resources, communicati
