This study explores the idea of flat organizational structures, which are gaining popularity due to their capacity to foster innovation and collaboration. Nevertheless, social interactions inside these organizations can still result in the emergence of social hierarchies, and some employees may hold positions of greater authority and status than others. Therefore, we examine how social hierarchies
Title The decision-making process and willingness to pay for green dwelling Seminar date 2015-05-26 Course FEKN90 Master Thesis in Business Administration (Level D), 30 ECTS Authors Emil Rydén and Robert Waszkiewicz Supervisor Matts Kärreman Key words Consumer behavior, willingness to pay, green dwelling, energy efficiency gap, sustainability, sustainable development Purpose The purpose of t
The aim of this project is to evaluate the sign to evacuation routes that are adapted for people with a disability. The goal is to shed light on problem areas when the sign is used as well as in planning with evacuation signs. The sign was introduced to lead to evacuation points, evacuation elevators and routes to the outside adapted for people with disabilities. With help from experts, a literatu
This thesis addresses the relationship between meat consumption and climate change. Its purpose is to bring attention to the findings of the FAO report Livestock's Long Shadow: Environmental Issues and Options (2006); i.e. that the production of animal derived foods is a significant contributing factor to climate change. The main focus of the thesis is investigating how environmental organizat
Title: Necessity knows no law : A qualitative study on the processing of emergency assistance in the social services. The aim of this study was to examine how social workers make decisions about financial aid in emergency situations when the user does not have food for the day. We wanted to find out what the social worker needs to know about the user to make a decision and which decision basis th
The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the possibility of application of the cluster based rural development approach in Armenia to promote its structural transformation. Case study was selected as a research methodology, and both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed. Analysis of the key findings from the ‘field’, i.e. - the potential cluster, shows that rural households pract
Female dominated work remains significantly disadvantaged in comparison to male dominated ocucpations statistically. What remains unclear is what this looks like in practice, how this is felt by the individuals conducting the work and what this reflects about female-dominated work. In this light this thesis explores the nature of female-dominated occuaptions through nursing to understand where thi
Introduction The Problematic Experience of Therapy Scale (PETS) identifies barriers to home-based exercise programs but has not been validated in hand therapy populations. This study aimed to translate the extended PETS into Swedish and evaluate its content and construct validity in patients undergoing early sensory relearning following peripheral nerve injury.Methods The PETS was translated into
Accurate triage of ovarian masses is facilitated in many centers by the guideline-endorsed, extensively validated IOTA-ADNEX risk model, yet the model still relies on manual measurements of key tumor features. We developed ADNEX-AI, a multi-task deep-learning system that automatically segments four ADNEX ultrasound predictors – lesion, locules, solid tissue, papillary projections – and outputs the
BACKGROUND: Fever is associated with brain injury after cardiac arrest. It is unknown whether fever management with a feedback-controlled device impacts patient-centered outcomes in cardiac arrest patients. This trial aims to investigate fever management with or without a temperature control device after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. METHODS: The TEMP-CARE trial is part of the 2 × 2 × 2 factoria
A search for pair production of vector-like leptons coupling to first- and second-generation Standard Model leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1. Events are categorised depending on the flavour and multiplicity
A measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions, Rτ/e = B(W → τν)/B(W → eν), is performed using a sample of W bosons originating from top-quark decays to final states containing τ-leptons or electrons. This measurement uses pp collisions at s = 13 TeV, collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider during Run 2, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1. The W → τ
This paper presents a search for supersymmetric particles in models with highly compressed mass spectra, in events consistent with being produced through vector boson fusion. The search uses 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at s = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Events containing at least two jets with a large gap in pseudorapidity, large missing tran
A thorough understanding of the longitudinal phase space (LPS) of the electron beam is of great advantage to any modern linear accelerator (linac), and of critical importance for operating a free electron laser (FEL). While a transverse deflecting structure (TDS) allows full characterization of a beam’s LPS, measurements with a TDS system are often destructive and operationally complex. We present
Background and aims: We examined whether the excess cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among adults with steatotic liver disease (SLD) subtypes could be reduced or eliminated through joint control of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Methods and results: This prospective cohort study included 291,995 participants f
At its origins, traceable back to about 50 years ago, the German “Energiewende” began as a fight against both nuclear energy, politicians pursuing nuclear-based energy strategies and also implementing them forcefully, as well as omnipotent enterprises.(1) After the Fukoshima tragedy in 2011, and the subsequent plans of Germany to abandon nuclear energy within its own borders, the term “Energiewend
