Unagi-sentences are, as defined in this thesis, sentences where there is a mismatch between the literal interpretation of the sentence and its meaning in context, often accompanying an apparent violation of selection restrictions of the predicate. This thesis argues that the phenomenon of unagi-sentences shows more variation than previously thought, as well as provides a much needed comparison of
Denna uppsats använder en kvalitativ, kulturanalytisk ingång med syfte att undersöka den kulturella integrationen av internationella studenter på ett svenskt universitet, med fokus på kommunikationsbeteende. Missförstånd i dagligt socialt samspel kan ha en negativ påverkan på internationella studenters personliga upplevelser, framkalla frustration och möjligtvis påverka välbefinnande. Då djupare b
The internal dimension of an individual is a potential deep leverage point for a collective change toward sustainability that is currently overlooked. Especially in their professional context, certain individuals can create change beyond themselves and the enterprise subjected to them. The environment of individuals, however, influences the activated potential of individuals for contributing to th
The main concerns of food spoilage in fruit juices are the off-flavours and off-odours caused by microorganisms. In order to ensure high quality products, these microorganisms must therefore be eliminated or below a certain limit. Trials using pear concentrate, a ready-to-drink pear drink and a carbonated pear drink, were performed in order to compare two detection methods for three different grou
The production of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) has been steadily increasing around the world, and remains an especially controversial subject within the European Union. Romania is one of the few E.U. countries that grows such crops, while also having the largest rural population, proportion of agricultural laborers, and reliance on subsistence agriculture of all member states. By using a
Autonomous cars have the potential to revolutionize private transportation by allowing occupants to utilize their travel time for other activities. Considering the new opportunities for improved productivity, as well as the increasing demand for constant digital connectivity, reconnecting with nature will be crucial for alleviating cognitive stress and promoting healing and well-being. In this the
This thesis presents a scoping review of academic literature on the intersection of religion, spirituality, and Indigenous worldviews with climate change adaptation. While adaptation research has traditionally emphasised technical, institutional, and financial dimensions, the cultural and spiritual dimensions shaping community responses remain underexplored. To address this gap, the review systema
This thesis investigates whether recent Large Language Models (LLMs)—notably ChatGPT—have influenced sectoral employment in Sweden. Using a multi-cutoff Difference-in-Differences (DiD) design centered on the dates November 2022 (initial ChatGPT release), September 2023, March 2024, we compare employment changes in high vs. low-exposure sectors classified via exposure metrics from Eloundou et al. (
Previous research has linked hallucination-proneness and psychosis-like experiences to the personality traits of Neuroticism and Openness in non-clinical samples. However, specific assessment of auditory hallucinatory experiences remains underexplored. In response, the present study investigated the links between personality—at trait and facet levels—and the occurrence of conditioned auditory hall
Architecture is often seen as the art of permanence, of creating structures meant to endure. But what happens when permanence is disrupted – when buildings fall into ruin or are dismantled? This thesis explores decay, reuse, and reassembly, challenging conventional preservation by embracing impermanence and unconventional outcomes. Set in the hills of Oltrepò Pavese in southern Lombardy, it focuse
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att utvärdera förslagen gällande beskattning av den digitala ekonomin genom införandet av en betydande ekonomisk närvaro (SEP), betydande digital närvaro (SDP) eller införandet av en källskatt. För att på ett grundligt sätt förstå utmaningarna med beskattning av den digitala ekonomin använder jag det svensk-brittiska skatteavtalet för att ge ett konkret exempel på hThe purpose of this thesis is to examine the proposals to tax the digital econ-omy by introducing a significant economic presence (SEP), significant digital presence (SDP) or a withholding tax. To fully understand the challenges of taxing the digital economy, I use the Sweden-UK tax treaty to provide a concrete example of how digital business is handled in practice. The tax treaty is used as a too
This thesis examines how active power control (Volt-Watt control) and reactive power compensation (Volt-VAr control) can help limit voltage increases on the low voltage grid due to high photovoltaic (PV), installations. Due to the large increase in interest to install small scale PV-systems within residential areas the Distribution System Operator E.ON, has noticed problems concerning high voltage
Despite efforts to turn the trend, the number of evictions of children have not decreased in Sweden. In fact, the number has steadily increased, despite the Swedish governments ”zero-vision” on child evictions. The CRC has on several occasions recommended Sweden to better conform with international law, but no clear improvement has been seen. This thesis investigates if the Swedish government has
Bjärsjöholm is an estate located close to the coastal town of Ystad, around 4.5 km. The aim of this thesis was to gain insight into the changes and development that the change from Danish to Swedish rule of Scania meant for Bjärsjöholm estate. The research questions were: • How has the economy changed during the 16th, 17th and 18th century for the Bjärsjöholm estate? • What changes of the buildi
Climate change and biodiversity loss present critical challenges for humanity, yet biodiversity often remains overlooked in corporate sustainability strategies. This study, conducted within Schneider Electric’s environ- mental team, aims to address this gap by comparing the carbon intensity and biodiversity impacts of new production processes for aluminum and steel against conventional methods. Ut
This thesis aims to analyze female sexual and bodily rights in Lebanon from a queer perspective, focusing on issues such as space and visibility and the strategically neglecting of historical existence of female narratives, referred to as conceptual anorexia. The thesis was preceded by a field work conducted in Beirut where observations of the field and interviews with LGBTQ- and/or feminist activ
Numerical competence can be explained as the ability to make a numerical judgement, from simple assessment of relative amounts in two piles of food to true numerical counting. Hence numerical abilities have been examined in four categories; (I) relative numerousness judgements; ability to discriminate quantities between “more” and “less”. (II) subitizing; the ability to make an accurate judgement
The thesis is regarding communicative urban planning and power relations, applied at a case called Brunnshög. The Brunnshög projects consist of five developing areas located in the north-east of Lund. The projects are pilot projects in communicative urban planning and the intension from the municipality is to involve the citizens and the developers in new ways, other than the traditional ones. T
Studiens syfte var att undersöka psykoterapeuters socialiseringsprocesser, såsom dessa processer upplevdes av psykoterapeuterna 1,5 år efter avslutad utbildning. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med fem psykoterapeuter. Intervjumaterialet analyserades med Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), vilket gav fyra huvudteman: Önskan att förbättra sin nuvarande praktik, Att möta psykoteThe aim of the study was to investigate the socialization processes of psychotherapists, as those processes were experienced by the psychotherapists themselves 1,5 years after finishing their training. The material was gathered using semi-structured interviews and then analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) which generated four main themes: The wish to improve one's curr
