After the U.S. intervention, civil wars, and growing violence during the late 20th century, migration from the Central American countries to the U.S. increased rapidly in the 1980s, especially illegal migration. The Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act (NACARA) granted Nicaraguans permanent residency, while the others could apply “only” for asylum or were not even mentioned. In th

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att utröna om VD-ordet förmedlar en rättvisande bild av bolagets finansiella ställning genom att undersöka om tonläge skiljer sig beroende på finansiell prestation. Teori: Legitimitetsteorin, Impression Management och Institutionell teori Metod: Studien använder en kvantitativ metod där sjuttiosex bolag på Stockholm Mid Cap undersöks. Genom datorstödd innehållsanalPurpose: The purpose of this essay is to examine if the CEO letter mediates a fair picture of the company's financial position by determining if the tone of the CEO letter differs depending on financial performance. Theoretical perspectives: Legitimacy theory, Impression management and Institutional theory. Methodology: The study uses a quantitative method where seventysix companies listed o
More than 17.9 million new patients worldwide suffer from heart diseases. In order to conduct a proper diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to develop a functionality for patients and doctors, which has the possibility to transfer the continuously measured data to the doctor for several days. In addition, such a tool should have the function to wirelessly transmit an alarm to the doctors, prov
GAs in Scattering Media Absorption Spectroscopy (GASMAS) is a technique to study free gas inside strongly scattering bulk-materials. GASMAS is successful in safely measuring oxygen in lungs of neonates, with low-power tuneable diode-laser spectroscopy at 760 nm. Because a similar need of lung monitoring exists in older patients, this work explores how GASMAS can be scaled up for larger geometries.
Introduction: Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is a powerful tool when used in metabolomics, the study of small molecules in the body, and investigating new modes of using it might lead to even better tools for diagnostics and research. Background: Chemical ionization (CI) for GC-tandem MS (GC-MS/MS) is relatively rarely used compared to the more commonplace electron ionization (EI).
The availability of energy is an overarching measure connected to various aspects of poverty. Energy Poverty, as a concept, captures the deprivation of access to energy, clean and safe fuels and end-appliances. While measures to reduce energy poverty increase the demand for energy, greenhouse gas emissions must decrease to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change, rendering renewable energy so
Titel: Digitaliseringens påverkan på redovisningsarbetet: En kvalitativ studie av digitaliseringens påverkan på redovisningsekonomens arbetssätt och kompetensutveckling Seminariedatum: 2022-06-03 Ämne/Kurs: FEKH69, Företagsekonomi: Examensarbete i Redovisning på kandidatnivå Författare: Florentina Balaj, Vjosa Maloku & Albulena Shabanaj Handledare: Caroline Hellström Examinator: Elin Func
This thesis’ main goals were to provide accurate forecasts and informative physical parameter estimates for energy use of the district heating in the Tingbjerg neighborhood, Copenhagen. Our work is aimed as a contribution for future work towards efficient on-demand energy production. We applied Dynamic Double Machine Learning to estimate the causal effects of weather observations on energy use. Th
Objective: The Dark Factor of Personality (D) measures the underlying core of all aversive traits. The present study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Swedish version of three item sets D70, D35, and 16 in regard to their factor structure, item quality and functioning, reliability, and convergent and discriminant validity. Method: A convenience and prolific sample (N = 294) was analyze
Sustainability is a term of significant relevance in today’s global context, permeating discourses and management decisions, and influencing decision-making at the head of most industries. This is particularly apparent in relation to fashion. Second hand clothing is often portrayed as a model towards sustainable consumption, reducing personal environmental impacts while signifying good ethics. Cri
This paper examines the properties of Carmichael numbers with the aim of constructing an algorithm for computation. This includes a recently published characterization, whose applications in computing are studied. The resulting algorithm is then described and a run time comparison with an older algorithm is presented.
The study explores the influence of agro-processing activities in the lives and livelihoods of cassava farmers in five communities located in four districts in the Ashanti and Volta regions in Ghana. The qualitative research is done by performing thirty-six semi-structured interviews to farmers and stakeholders along the cassava value chain. The research concludes that agro-processing activities a
Titel: “Förtroende är nyckeln till framgång” - En kvalitativ studie om vad det är som gör att unga vuxna får förtroende för influencers, ur följarnas perspektiv Seminariumdatum: 2022-06-03 Kurs: FEKH29, Examensarbete i marknadsföring på kandidatnivå, 15 högskolepoäng Författare: Björkenheim, Nicoline.

In Lusaka, 70% of the residents live in unplanned settlements. Here, they are regularly exposed to flooding events which exacerbate existing development challenges and have adverse social and economic impacts. Climate change will likely increase the frequency, magnitude, and variability at which such flooding events occur. Therefore, Lusaka City Council has declared the building of community flood
In this thesis, we study the Higgs mass spectrum and spontaneous CP violation, where one of the Higgs vacuum expectation values acquires a non-trivial phase θ in a Type-I 2HDM. We begin by investigating CP violating effects at tree-level, and then expand our studies by taking into account one-loop radiative corrections. After imposing tadpole conditions we discover that this model gives the same m
Den här studien handlar om att öka förståelsen för den interaktion som sker på Instagram. Instagram är en applikation och social plattform där miljontals bilder, videos och texter publiceras varje dag. Det finns en pågående debatt om vad detta får för påverkan, positiv såväl som negativ. Instagrams alla funktioner innebär nya tillvägagångssätt för hur vi människor interagera med andra. För att få
