This dissertation aims at advancing the knowledge about the role of the labour market in the process of the technology-induced economic transformation, taking into account the variety of factors involved at micro-, meso-, and macro-levels of the economy and at different geographical scales. Empirically, the dissertation investigates the co-evolutionary dynamics of industrial restructuring and work

We empirically analyze whether support by the parent organization in the early (nascent and seed) stage speeds up the process of commercialization and helps spin-offs from public research organizations generate first revenues sooner. To identify the impact of support by the parent organization, we apply multivariate regression techniques as well as an instrumental variable approach. Our results sh

Based on ethnographic data collected among the Bahnar ethnicgroup in the Central Highlands of Vietnam, I discuss the livedexperiences of masculine performing people (assigned female atbirth) whose gender characteristics blur the boundaries betweenlesbian and transgender. In reviewing non-normative genderpractices in supernatural rituals in Southeast Asia and in Vietnam Iexplore the links between t

Background and aims We aimed to identify clusters of metabolic syndrome (MetS) components, risky for extremely high intima-media thickness. Methods We studied 41,513 volunteers (men and women) from eleven cohorts worldwide, participating in the MARE (Metabolic syndrome and Artery REsearch) Consortium. Results Specific clusters of MetS components - high triglycerides-high blood pressure-abdominal o

Crystals of Pt(DMSO)4(TFMS)2 have been prepared by dissolution of platinum(II) hydroxide in a solution of CF3SO3H in DMSO and subsequent evaporation. The structure was determined by use of a CAD-4 diffractometer with monochromatic Mo Kα radiation. The space group is PFull-size image (<1 K) with Z = 2, a = 8.630(2), b = 9.557(3), c = 16.659(3) Å, α = 73.33(2), β = 77.38(2) and γ = 79.19(3)°.

Purpose: Substance use disorders and problematic substance use are common problems in adolescence and young adulthood. Brief personalized feedback has been suggested for treatment of alcohol and drug problems and poor mental health. This repeated measurement randomized controlled trial examines the effect of an interactive voice response (IVR) system for assessing stress, depression, anxiety and s

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning:Dagens datorer har krympt i storlek i takt med den ständigt ökande kompetensen att tillverka transistorer med en anmärkningsvärd noggrannhet. Storleksskalan av nya transistorer börjar motsvara den av en handfull atomer.På denna skala dominerar kvantfysik, vilket är ett väsentligt hinder för de traditionella datorkomponenterna. Men detta innebär inte bara en begräThe work contained in this thesis deals with two closely related topics. Papers I-III deal with charge transport statistics in nanoscale devices to investigate the presence of entanglement in the constituent electrons. We identify the contributions of entangled electron pairs to the current cross-correlations as a signature of entanglement. Paper IV treats the electric control of a quantum dot bas

We investigate the effects of the orientation of the magnetic field and the orientation of a quantum dot, with respect to crystallographic coordinates, on the quality of an electrically controlled qubit realized in a gated semiconductor quantum dot. We find that, due to the anisotropy of the spin-orbit interactions, by varying the two orientations it is possible to tune the qubit in the sense of o

Barns internetanvändning äger i stor utsträckning rum i en kommersiell miljö där reklam och försäljning av virtuella föremål är ständigt närvarande. Genom att kombinera publikforskning, produktionsforskning samt textanalys (observationer online och dokumentanalys) bidrar denna avhandling till en kritisk förståelse av internet som en plats för barns vardagliga aktiviteter och deltagande, och som enChildren’s daily internet usage takes place to a large extent in a commercial environment, where advertising and the sale of virtual goods are ever-present parts of the online experience. The overall goal of this thesis is to contribute to a critical understanding of children’s commercial online environment as spaces for children’s everyday life activities and participation, and as spaces for comm

Cloud retrievals from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instruments aboard the satellites Terra and Aqua and the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument aboard the Suomi-NPP satellite are evaluated using a combination of ground-based instruments providing vertical profiles of clouds. The ground-based measurements are obtained from the Atmospheric Radiat
