”Den som sa det han var det”. Ett klassiskt svenskt ordspråk företrädelsevis populärt bland barn att dra till med när argumentationen tagit slut i en hetsig diskussion. Men också en ypperlig titel på denna uppsats då den ger uttryck för en mycket vanlig uppfattning; den som erkänner brott måste också vara skyldig till detsamma. I Rättegångsbalken stadgas det att ett erkännande i brottmål endast tj"Den som sa det han var det." A classic Swedish saying, especially popular amongst children when found themselves run out of arguments in a heated discussion. But also an excellent title for this paper as it reflects a very common belief; the one who confesses a crime must also be guilty of the same. The Swedish law states that a confession in criminal cases only serve as evidence, which

Various research within the field of behavioral economics have proven payment mechanisms to be affecting consumer behavior, giving rise to the question what kind of impact different shopping methods may have. This paper investigates consumer behavior with two different approaches. The first approach is comparing self scanning consumers with consumers using traditional cashier check out, and the se

In this study the efficiency of a pre-treatment method planned to treat wastewater produced at a waste treatment facility in Rönneholm (Skåne, Southern Sweden) was evaluated. At this waste treatment facility, operated by the publicly owned waste recycling company MERAB, a treatment is needed to lower concentrations of potentially environmentally detrimental contents in the wastewater to an extent

Problem statement: When a home does not naturally present itself to one as a given, what chance does one have of choosing a home for oneself? Aim: To investigate the possibility for a root-weak individual of finding a sense of belonging, sense of rootedness, a home. Brief description of points of departure and disposition: This thesis has materialized out of personally felt frustration with questi

In this master thesis computational fluid dynamic simulations of two plate heat exchanger channels have been performed in Ansys CFX. The full geometry of the channels has not been included, the channels were modeled with a flat geometry instead of a corrugated pattern. To account for the effect of the corrugation on the pressure drop, one-time pressure losses and momentum sources were added in the

This master thesis, completed at the company Alfa Laval studied the surface properties of grade 1 titanium from two different suppliers to examine if there were any significant differences between the two suppliers. Previously titanium from the two suppliers had performed differently at times when used in Alfa Lavals heat exchangers. The experiments performed where studies of surface energy, surfa

This thesis concerns the relationship between grammar education and writing. This is approached in two ways, which are expressed in the two research questions. They are as follows: Does grammar education improve students texts and does grammar education affect students writing processes. The method used to investigate the research questions, is an elicitation task which has generated texts from un

Syftet med den aktuella studien var att, utifrån en kritisk realistisk ansats, undersöka hur män upplever, förstår och reglerar sina känslor, såväl intrapsykiskt som i en interpersonell kontext. Ett särskilt fokus riktades mot socialiseringsprocesser av känslor under uppväxten, och på hur detta idag inverkar på männens känslomässiga förhållningssätt. Studiens design var mixad och utgjordes av en eThe aim of the present study, which was informed by a critical realist approach, was to investigate how men experience, understand and regulate their emotions, both intrapsychically and in interpersonal contexts. A specific aim was to shed light on the socialization of emotions during adolescence, and on how this today is affecting men’s emotional attitudes. The study's design was mixed and in

Bristen på personal inom människorelaterade yrken som till exempel vård och omsorg är idag ett problem som behöver lösas. En möjlig lösning skulle kunna vara att höja individers communal yrkesmål (vilja att arbeta med människor). Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om compassion meditation, en metod som syftar till att höja medkänsla/medlidande, kan höja gymnasieelevers communal yrkesmål. I Sweden is witnessing a shortage of labor within the social and healthcare sector. A viable option that could bring Sweden one step closer to a solution is to raise the populations' communal goals. Our study aims to explore if compassion meditation, a method that aims to cultivate compassion can raise communal goals amongst Swedish high school students. Within this study, 250 students attending

The high surface-to-volume ratio of nanoparticles (NPs) makes them an interesting source for scientific research. How interfacial energies interplay between such a small structure and a solid bulk surface, are important because of the versatile applications NPs regard. In this thesis, a convenient and reliable method for interfacial energy determination was investigated. The interfacial energies

This essay explores four English teachers’ views on their methods of teaching vocabulary, as well as the incorporation of translanguaging in their teaching of English vocabulary. The study investigates what the teachers’ preferred methods of teaching vocabulary are and whether they rely more on implicit or explicit vocabulary teaching. Furthermore, the study explores if the participating teachers

Studien ämnade att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar individers inre motivation för träning och hur sambandet mellan dessa faktorer såg ut. Faktorerna som undersöktes var upplevd kompetens, upplevd autonomi, upplevd samhörighet, utseende-motiv, ansträngning, fitness-motiv, genomsnittligt spenderade timmar på träning, genomsnittligt spenderade timmar på arbete eller studier och generell self-efThis study was aiming to investigate which factors influence individual’s intrinsic motivation for exercise and what their correlation to it was. The factors examined was perceived competence, perceived autonomy, perceived relatedness, appearance motives, effort, fitness motives, average hours spent on exercise, average hours spent working or studying, and general self-efficacy. The study chose to

Surrogatskap är en aktuell och omdebatterad fråga. Varken altruistiska eller kommersiella surrogatskap är tillåtna i Sverige. Surrogatskap är en relativt ny företeelse och diskuterades för första gången på 1980-talet i riksdagen. Till en början var de flesta partier restriktivt inställda och talade om surrogatskap som en främmande och osedlig företeelse. Med åren öppnades det dock upp för en diskuSurrogacy is a current and often debated issue. Neither altruistic nor commercial surrogacy is allowed in Sweden. When surrogacy was first discussed in the 1980s most parties were restrictive and spoke of surrogacy as a foreign and immoral phenomenon. Over the years, however, more parties have opened up for discussing the matter. In SOU 2016: 11, the possibility of surrogacy in Sweden was investi

The purpose of this study is to look into how middle managers of Swedish LSS housing are balancing their responsibility to provide their clients with good living conditions and their responsibility to fulfill their employees’ right to a good working environment. We conducted one focus group with three middle managers from one municipality participating and then five semi-structured interviews with

Molten salt applications are challenging from a material perspective. This degree project was carried out at Alfa Laval to give them a better understanding of the corrosion of solar salt on the standard heat exchanger material stainless steel 321. Similar tests have previously been performed externally. By developing test methods for in-house corrosion testing time and money can be saved. In thi

The aim of this study was to examine social workers experience on the Swedish statutory regulated program “contact family”. A contact family is a non-compulsory intervention to support children in families with social problems. The intervention contact family together with the intervention contact person is the most common non-compulsory intervention in the Swedish social service. The child lives

Målet med den här rapporten var att undersöka möjligheten att vidare rena spillvattnet på Dows anläggning i Landskrona. Dow tillverkar vattenbaserade bindemedel från akryl monomerer. Spillvattnet innehåller metalliska joner, såpor, restmonomerer och restpolymerer. Idag så renas spillvattnet med ultrafiltrering (UF) där permeatet släpps iväg till det kommunala reningsverket för vidare rening. EfterThe aim of this report was to investigate the possibility of further cleaning of the wastewater at Dow in Landskrona. Dow produces water based adhesives from acrylic monomers. The wastewater contains different metal ions, surfactants, residual monomers and polymers. The wastewater at Dow is treated with ultrafiltration (UF) which produces a permeate that is sent to the municipal waste water treatm

The dissertation deals with the load-bearing capacity, in terms of stability, of a steel truss in an industrial building. It is based on previous work by Tosovic [1], in which the roof was investigated in the same type of building but the results showed that the trusses were the deficient elements. Steel trusses are a popular choice of construction for large-span buildings due to their load-beari
