This bachelor thesis examines the correlation between GDP growth forecasts and the actual GDP outcome the projected year, hence examines if forecasters realy can project the future or not. It concludes that the methods and models by which forecasts are produced are very similar, and hence the results are similar as well. They usually have ha mismatch around 0,9 percentage points over time for thei
This study analyzes the relationship between foreign trade and economic growth in Turkey during the last three decades while particularly observing distinctive feature of the last decade in terms of economic growth-foreign trade relationship. The study adopts two main methodological approaches. The first approach includes two econometric analyses based on VAR and VEC models regarding periods 1987:
The possibility of trade-offs in road tunnel design incorporating suppression has been evaluated. Different tunnel configurations and ventilation conditions considered to identify potential trade-offs, offering options of design alternatives for future substantial cost-benefit estimates. Suppression systems are regularly used in Australia and Japan. The interest regarding suppression systems in tu
Pilot-scale tests were run with ozonation for reduction of 24 pharmaceuticals at 10 full-scale wastewater treatment plants in southern Sweden. Reduction was evaluated based on doses of 3, 5 and 7 g O3/m3 at all plants. The reduction of pharmaceuticals reached on average 65% at 3 g O3/m3, 78% at 5 g O3/m3 and 88% for 7 g O3/m3 in terms of total concentration of pharmaceuticals. Specific ozone dose
Objectives: To describe the housing situation and aspects of participation among older adults living with long-standing spinal cord injury (SCI) with attention to SCI severity, and to examine whether and how objective housing accessibility (based on objectively measurable criteria) is associated with aspects of participation. Design: Cross-sectional study utilizing the assessment tools Impact on P

As policymakers and scholars evaluate possible ways forward in the reform and renewal of public services by governments caught up in a recessionary environment, this book aims to offer something different – a comprehensive analysis of the development of the ‘Scandinavian’ way of modernizing public-sector management. No book has yet provided an inside view of the development and character of New PuAs policymakers and scholars evaluate possible ways forward in the reform and renewal of public services by governments caught up in a recessionary environment, this book aims to offer something different – a comprehensive analysis of the development of the ‘Scandinavian’ way of modernizing public-sector management.

Socio-economic shocks, technogenic catastrophes, and armed conflicts often have drastic impacts on local and regional food security through disruption of agricultural production and food trade, reduced investments, and deterioration of land and infrastructure. Recently, more research has focused on the effects of armed conflict on land systems, but still little is known about the processes and outSocio-economic shocks, technogenic catastrophes, and armed conflicts often have drastic impacts on local and regional food security through disruption of agricultural production and food trade, reduced investments, and deterioration of land and infrastructure.

This thesis investigates Swedish voters’ perceptions of political branding and its consequences in a nation characterized by high institutional trust and low corruption. Political branding, a tool for shaping voter opinions, perceptions, and behavior, has gained significant traction in recent years. While traditionally viewed as beneficial for democracy, emerging critiques suggest it may hinder co
Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore young consumers' identity creation in the context of nostalgic consumption and marketing. The study seeks to deepen the understanding of how young consumers construct their identities by exploring the impact of two forms of nostalgia, personal and historical. Theoretical Perspective: To analyze the empirical data and gain insight into co
The present study investigated the retrieval induced forgetting phenomenon (RIF) (Anderson, Bjork & Bjork, 1994) and the relation to task evoked pupillary responses (TEPR) (Beatty, 1982). Previous studies suggests that the pupil diameter increases as a result of cognitive demands such as memory retrieval (Kahneman & Beatty, 1966). RIF is forgetting caused by managing of interference from c
This qualitative mixed methods case study aims to seek understanding of employer branding within the public sector from a New Public Management perspective. The chosen case is two campaigns from the Swedish Armed Forces of 2011 and 2019. Due to political changes in Sweden, the Swedish Armed Forces faced major organizational changes regarding their staffing. Through a text analysis of the commer
Municipal economic policy has a significant role for the municipality in a time of globalisation to boost growth and thereby welfare. The study aims to understand the ideas reflected in a municipality's economic policy and how they take their expression. The study aims to construct a model to understand these ideas and expressions, an analytic tool which will help to analyze a municipality'
Sustainability transition research investigates why the necessary change towards more sustainable patterns of consumption and production has not yet been achieved and how it can be accelerated. Taking into account the complexity of the globalised dynamics underlying today's sustainability challenges, it has been suggested that the existence of global regimes limits the possibilities for change
Genetic plant diversity is crucial to meet future challenges through plant adaptation to new biotic and abiotic conditions. To date, conservation strategy focuses on an ex situ (off-site) approach whereas the importance of in situ (in-site) conservation has been stressed to increase the public engagement and facilitate the gradual evolutionary adaptation of the material. This essay focuses on the
To accurately determine the efficiency and range of an electric vehicle, one must be able to estimate the rolling resistance of the car. This is currently done using standardized methods developed under laboratory settings, where transient aspects and effects of varying temperatures are excluded. Given the strong correlation between tyre temperatures and the rolling resistance, determining this te
