To further our understanding of incel aggression this current study aimed to develop a new psychometric tool for measuring the incel identity through underlying incel values and exploring the potential relationships between incel values, masculinity threat, narcissism, and violent fantasies. The incel value scale (IVS) was developed through exploratory factor analysis on a population of N = 99 men

The Proletarian Pedagogy of the Pioneers: Education Through Self-Cultivation, Immersion, and Creativity with the Aim to Achieve the Communist Utopia, 1924–1929. The thesis examines how the Swedish pioneer movement between the years 1924 and 1929 tried to raise the new socialist generation through a pedagogy which they believed were necessary to achieve the Communist Utopia, the classless society.

Employee engagement and employer branding are highly relevant in today's labor market, where employers no longer hold all the cards, but the employees assert their demands as well. Furthermore, there is a scarcity in research exploring the interaction between employee engagement and employer branding. This study investigates through a case study how employee engagement and employer branding in

This bachelor's thesis is a qualitative investigation regarding technologies for generating code, how these are used within large software development companies, as well as who introduces these technologies and how they affect developers' tasks. The investigation consists of four partially structured interviews based on the TAM3 model. These interviews have been thematically analyzed to ac

In order to decarbonise the heating sector, district heating is seen as an efficient and potentially environmentally friendly approach to achieving the sector's climate targets. Currently, German district heating systems rely predominantly on fossil fuels and utilise combined heat and power plants, which are efficient but not climate neutral. Therefore, the integration of renewable energy sour

A process of a random graph, that grows in a box [0,N]^2 ⊂ R^2 and yields a quadrangulation when it stops growing, is investigated in this work. The random components in this model come from the Poisson distributed number of points, the position of those, and the either horizontal or vertical direction in which lines grow from these points. The model finds inspiration in a cellular automata model

The public debate about the housing crisis in the Netherlands is more heated than ever before. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to examine the effect of changing household structures on the Dutch housing market by taking a mixed-methods approach. By combining existing quantitative data and literature with new qualitative data from a conducted survey, the challenges on the housing market in rel

In 1935, Schrödinger noted that if one of two entangled particles is subjected to a suitable measurement, it appears as if the state of the other particle is instantaneously influenced at a distance. This phenomenon, which Schrödinger referred to as quantum steering, exhibits properties favorable for quantum information theory. Therefore, much research has been put into developing criteria to dete

Increasing sustainability and combating climate change are one of the key objectives of the European Union’s policies. Adoption of the European Green Deal and commitment to different international treaties and programmes are affecting to various fields of EU law. In competition law, it has been established that the enhancement of environmental objectives must be considered also when assessing hori

Submission date: 20th May 2024 Course:BUSN49, Degree Project in Master’s Programme Managing People, Knowledge and Change, Business Administration Authors: Olivia Berglund and Stina Ekelius Supervisor: Roland Paulsen Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of a robust organizational culture on employees' perceptions and affiliation with the company, particularly focus

This thesis examines the impact of the European Cohesion Policy on regional economic performance during the funding periods of 2007-2013 and 2014-2020, using a Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) and spatial econometric techniques. The analysis leverages the eligibility rule, which grants additional funding to regions with a GDP per capita below 75\% of the EU average, creating a natural experim

Automatic segmentation of organs and tissues in computed tomography (CT) images can aid clinicians in anatomical contextualization for planning surgery or dosimetry. CT scans can cover varying axial ranges of the body. This thesis aims to develop a neural network based on vision transformers for segmenting organs and tissues in CT images of arbitrary axial ranges. Two models are presented, one bas

Amelogenin is an enamel matrix protein (EMP) that plays an important role during enamel formation. It guides apatite crystals to form in the right way and is later degraded during enamel maturation. Amelogenin has been shown to have regenerative properties in bones, teeth, and wounds, and is therefore interesting from a biomaterial perspective. The amelogenin has high self-assembly potential and c

In the conflict zone of Northern Syria, agriculture is the livelihood of a major part of the population. Nevertheless, the reasons for changes in agricultural land are manyfold. This paper looks at two areas in North Syria which have been under Syrian governance until the Syrian Civil War (2011) and were contested territory until 2016. Since then, the Rojava area has been governed by the PYD, a Ku

In orthopedic surgery, metals such as titanium and magnesium are commonly used in implants. To monitor the performance of the implant over time, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is often used. Due to the differing magnetic properties of metals and body tissues, disturbances, known as artifacts, appear on the images. This makes it difficult to discern the boundaries between the implant and the tiss

This thesis explores the potential of robotic assembly in constructing formwork-free vaults, aiming to modernize traditional vaulting techniques using robotic automation. The motivation behind it is to enhance buildability, sustainability, and efficiency in construction practices. Key hypotheses focus on the viability of using robotic systems to replicate and improve upon historical vaulting metho

With the vigorous development of the electric vehicle industry, there is an increasing demand for high-capacity, high-stability batteries, and higher requirements are also placed on clean, non-toxic, and efficient battery production processes. The electrode is one of the most important components in lithium-ion batteries. It determines the capacity and overall performance of the battery. The fabri

The world continues to boil due to capital’s incapacity to resolve its climatic contradictions. Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI), a technological process theorised to instantly reduce global temperatures, has piqued the interest of a now desperate ruling class. Given its worldwide impacts, enormous risks, and capitalist- imperialist reproductive capacities, it is crucial to engage with SAI wh
