Based on behavioural finance theory and stock market data, this paper studies the contagion of investor sentiment in international markets and its impact o n the US stock market . We use monthly data on four indicators (business confidence index, consumer confidence index, the volume of initial public offerings, and trading volume) for eight countries (the United States, Canada, China, Japan, Germ
After the introduction of a conjugate vaccine that provides immunization to Haemophilus influenzae type b, an increase in the number of infections caused by Non-typeable H. influenzae (NTHi) has been reported. NTHi mostly affects children under the age of 1, causing cases of otitis media and conjunctivitis, and it is also associated with respiratory tract infections such as exacerbations of chroni
Abstract Author: Marinette Kindeland Title: School Social Work’s perspective on Promoting Mental Health – to be handled and to handle in the School Dramaturgy Supervisor: Alexandru Panican Assessor: Anna Angelin From the 1980s until today, a doubled number of youths are suffering from mental illness in Sweden. One of the most important institutions that meet and socialize young people, are school
The study of the migratory trajectories of high skilled migrants has been a topic of enquiry for decades; nevertheless, in practice, these have not been studied in-depth. Therefore, acknowledging this research gap, this thesis aims to explore the experiences of non-EU high skilled migrants when integrating into the labour market in the context of Sweden. This is of particular relevance given that
IntroductionRecreational hunting in Sweden can be depicted as being embedded in two different but overlapping cultural and socio-economic contexts. One is the traditional non-commercial and stewardship-oriented form hunting, in Swedish called ‘allmoge’ hunting. It is characterised by a democratic hunting tradition where the local hunting team is ascribed a main role in wildlife management. These tThe paper is based on a study of hunting tourism enterprising in Sweden. The study examines how hunting tourism businesses in Sweden navigate in a complex social, economic and moral environment. The aim of the present paper is to identify how tensions between a market- oriented value sphere and a value sphere based on friendship- and community reciprocity are played out in hunting tourism entrepre
Patients undergoing treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) are at risk of coagulopathy, especially thromboembolism. We conducted a survey on practices in the assessment and management of coagulopathy during the new ALLTogether protocol in 29 (17 paediatric, 12 adult) Nordic and Baltic cancer centres. While 92% of adult centres used thromboprophylaxis with low-molecular-weight heparin, n
Uppsatsen belyser jämställdhets- och genusarbete på några svenska förskolor. I studiens centrum står tre fokusområden, vilka även format huvudfrågeställningen: Hur ser verk-samhetsansvariga på tre olika förskolor i Skåne på könsneutralitet, normkritik och genuspedagogik i den egna verksamheten? Val av fokusområden beror på deras aktuella ställning i jämställdhetsfrågor inom förskolan. För att besv
Popular science summary To Migrate or Not to Migrate! An interesting experiment to test how gender, personality traits, size, and condition affect migration in Roach (Rutilus rutilus). Partial migration is a phenomena in which migration does not take place in every individual’s lifecycle. The reason for this type of migration has not yet been totally understood. However, there has been studies
This report is a study of the impacts of extreme sea levels and waves on the coastal area of the bay of Lundåkra. The bay is characterized by shallow sea bottoms and a flat topography, particularly in the north. Analyses have been based on historical data. To expand the analyses to apply for a future scenario a change in mean sea level has been considered. Based on general recommendations from the
Ultra high magnetic field (UHF) MR-systems is an interesting research area, the systems offer images with higher spatial resolution than its lower field counterpart. One of the disadvantages with UHF MR is that they lead to a worsened B1-field homogenity, a homogentity essential for the creation of MR-images. In the project an 8 independent channel transmit system is charachterised. The transmit s
Popular ScienceThe growing need for green processes in industry makes scientists design and develop processes that are more energy efficient than current processes. Naturally, some reactions require a high energy and long time to occur. This will cause high energy consumption and, typically, even more waste production. Therefore, many efforts have been done to design materials that can help to chaThe research work that I describe in my thesis deals with three different heterogenisation approaches for synthesising a heterogeneous transition metal catalyst used for direct C-H activation reactions. The three heterogenisation approaches considered in my research are: (1) heterogenisation of a molecular catalyst on a polymer support using covalent bonds, (2) heterogenisation of a catalyst on a
Since the 1979 Revolution, the clerical regime in Iran has been limiting the legal profession’s autonomy by preventing members of the Iranian Bar Association (IBA) from freely electing their Board of Directors and by establishing a new body of lawyers—legal advisors of the judiciary—to contest the IBA’s professional monopoly.

Now extinct, the aurochs (Bos primigenius) was a keystone species in prehistoric Eurasian and North African ecosystems, and the progenitor of cattle (Bos taurus), domesticates that have provided people with food and labour for millennia1. Here we analysed 38 ancient genomes and found 4 distinct population ancestries in the aurochs—European, Southwest Asian, North Asian and South Asian—each of whic
This article investigates changes in the right to social assistance – a means-tested cash support programme, regulated by the Social Services Act – for irregularised migrants over a period of four decades, 1982–2022. The article makes the case that austerity policies have hollowed out the right to support, with significant repercussions for those with irregularised residency status. In doing so, i
