Using a mixed-methods approach, we assessed understanding of risks from exposure to the non-threshold carcinogen hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) among workers (n = 113) and occupational health and safety managers (n = 13) at 14 worksites with potential exposure to Cr(VI). We found that 55% of the workers had a measurable concentration of inhalable Cr(VI), with 19% exceeding 1 µg/m3, a level that corr

This study tests whether the Ricardian Equivalence Hypothesis holds in Sweden when the private sector faces an intertemporal budget constraint skewed by the media narrative. Time series analysis of cointegrated vector autoregressive processes is utilized to identify Ricardian consumer behavior in three different models, in order to find differences in consumer behavior when media narrative bias is

E-scooter sharing systems (ESS) have rapidly gained popularity since their introduction in the U.S. in 2017, promoting sustainable urban mobility and offering a new solution to transport systems challenges. However, research on ESS usage in relation to the built environment, particularly in European contexts, is limited, and comparative studies between urban areas of different sizes are not readil

Decisions taken in the boardroom are considered to be of crucial importance for corporate governance, not least due to their wide-ranging implications for both an organization and its stakeholders. To take effective decisions on the board, the availability of the right skills and knowledge is deemed essential. Such skills and knowledge largely derive from board members previous educational and fun

I denna uppsats ger jag en inblick i hur bibliotekarier på folkbibliotek uppfattar, förstår och interagerar med algoritmer och AI i relation till sitt yrke. Mitt främsta fokus ligger på hur bibliotekariernas uppfattningar av algoritmer och AI i slutändan formar deras handlingar. För att uppnå detta syfte tar jag min utgångspunkt i deras personliga syn på algoritmer och AI. Materialet för denna uppIn this thesis I provide insight into how librarians at public libraries perceive, understand, and interact with algorithms and AI in relation to their profession. My main focus lies in how librarians’ perceptions of algorithms and AI ultimately shape their actions. To achieve this aim I take my starting point from their privately held views of algorithms and AI. The material for the thesis is gat

Gesture is always mentioned in descriptions of compensatory behaviour in second language discourse, yet it has never been adequately integrated into any theory of Communication Strategies (CSs). This study suggests a method for achieving such an integration. By combining a cognitive theory of speech-associated gestures with a process-oriented framework for CSs, gesture and speech can be seen as re

The energy transition of housing is accelerating in parallel with economic inequality reaching historically high levels. There is thus an opportunity to reduce inequalities in living conditions, but also a risk that the costs of the transition are unequally distributed and aggravate existing inequalities.

We are currently witnessing an age of migration and globalisation. The growing hybridisation of societies creates continuous discussion and debate concerning who belongs and who does not. The media are traditionally seen to play an important role in this dispute through representational and discursive practices that contribute to our ideas about ‘us’ and ‘them’, simultaneously affecting the constr
