It has repeatedly been shown that consumers consider the higher price of organic produce to be a barrier to buying organic food products. The present paper therefore asks whether organic consumption affects consumers’ actual total food expenditures. Food purchase data for a panel of Danish households during 2006–2014 were used to compare the total food expenditures of different organic household s

This doctoral thesis examines the causes and effects of corporate disclosure practices. The thesis consists of four independent but related essays that collectively make up a country study for Sweden. The first essay aims to explain why some firms have a proactive disclosure strategy while others devote less resources and effort to disclosure and investor relations. Information about Swedish firms

Popular Abstract in Swedish För att ge en god omvårdnad behövs kunskaper om ätproblem som helhet och om möjliga hinder för optimalt näringsintag hos äldre patienter, särskilt de med stroke. Sådana kunskaper behövs eftersom åldrandet i sig självt eller tillsammans med sjukdom, t.ex. stroke och dess följder, kan påverka förmågan att äta och därmed också näringsintaget med ökad risk för såväl undernäThe aim of this thesis was to describe eating difficulties and interventions to improve eating among elderly patients, especially those with stroke, to make comparisons between patients with dysphagia and those without (Papers I & II), those with and without assisted eating (Paper IV), and to analyse the relation between eating difficulties, nutritional status (Papers II-V), pressure ulcers (P

Popular Abstract in Swedish Huvudsyftet med avhandlingen är att formulera en teoretiskt och empiriskt förankrad konsultationsmodell för psykologer i skolsammanhang. Idéer och handlingsstrategier tydliggörs så att de kan tillämpas, värderas och vidareutvecklas av andra yrkesutövare. De tänks även kunna utgöra en referensram för psykologers, specialpedagogers och andra specialisters teamarbete. VidaThe primary aim of this thesis is to formulate a theoretically and empirically based consultation model for psychologists in school contexts. Ideas and strategies are clarified so that they can be applied, evaluated, and further developed by other professionals. The model has been constructed with an interactional approach, with the stress on patterns of interaction between grown-ups and children

Att kunna redovisa resultat ser vi i dagens samhälle som en självklar del av en organisations verksamhet. Privata profitdrivna företag liksom även alltmer offentliga organisationer styrs idag genom en marknadslogik som bland annat bygger på kontraktsbaserade uppdrag vilka förutsätter en granskning av hur de offentliga medlen används. Liknande krav på att utvärdera resultat och framgång blir i allt

Oxidation of dissolved sulfur dioxide, SO2·nH2O, HSO3– and SO32–, by hexaaquathallium(III) has been studied in acidic aqueous solution with ionic strength 1.0 mol dm–3 at 25 °C. The stoichiometry of the reaction has been determined: [Tl(H2O)6]3++ SO2(aq)+ 2H2O →[Tl(H2O)6]++ HSO4–+ 3H+. The kinetics has been studied by use of stopped-flow spectrophotometry under pseudo-first-order conditions with eOxidation of dissolved sulfur dioxide, SO2·nH2O, HSO3– and SO32–, by hexaaquathallium(III) has been studied in acidic aqueous solution with ionic strength 1.0 mol dm–3 at 25 °C.

Renewable energy pursuit and implementation are undoubtedly one of the most important steps in sustainable development across the globe. So far there are several developed high-income countries in the world, that have replaced their fossil fuel-powered electricity systems for renewable energy technologies, however, most of the world still relies on non-renewable energy sources. This research will

This thesis has as a purpose the investigation of sustainable requirements compliance with regards to competition in public procurement contracts. This paper looks into Directive 2014/24 and notably its primary law influence in order to understand the legal foundations underlying sustainability and competition. It showcases, firstly, that Article 18(1) wording and legal interpretation provides a l

Den allvarliga brottsligheten som begås av kriminella nätverk har ökat drastiskt under de senaste åren. Skjutningar och sprängningar har blivit alltmer förekommande och diskuteras frekvent i medier och politiska debatter. Hur man ska komma till rätta med problemet är en angelägen fråga. Ett av förslagen, för att ge de brottsutredande myndigheterna effektivare verktyg för att förhindra denna typ avSerious crimes committed by criminal networks have increased over the last couple of years. Shootings and explosions have become more common and are frequently discussed in media and political debates. How to solve this problem is an important question and a proposal that has been suggested, with the purpose to give criminal investigation authorities more effective tools to prevent these serious c

Självskadebeteende är ett alltmer vanligt förekommande fenomen bland unga och vård är i många fall essentiellt för att lindra problemet. Självskadebeteende kan uttrycka sig på olika vis, bland annat genom att den unge medvetet utsätter sig för riskfyllda sexuella situationer. Syftet med uppsatsen är att med rättsdogmatisk metod undersöka när självdestruktivt sex utgör en grund för vård enligt Self-harm is a growing problem in our society, especially among adolescents. The purpose of this essay is to investigate under which circumstances selfdestructive sex can be considered a reason for compulsory care according to 3 § Care of Young Persons Act, LVU. The current legal conditions will be explored as well as case law. Compulsory care is intended to provide help to young people whose

Vårt digitala verktyg visar vägen genom att kombinera produktens potential med organisationens förutsättningar – något som är avgörande för en cirkulär omställning då både vad vi gör och hur vi arbetar förändras i samspThis master’s thesis aims to support product-centered companies in their transition to a circular economy (CE) by developing a digital self-assessment and decision support tool. Circularity is a complex field that demands collaboration across multiple system levels. Although a wide range of frameworks, regulations and guidelines exist, the transition remains difficult for companies to navigate. Ex

Sedan införandet av det kommunala planmonopolet 1947 till följd av den bostadssociala utredningen har planlagstiftningen reformerats flertalet gånger. I förevarande examensarbete studeras den historiska utvecklingen av både det kommunala planmonopolet och dess tillhörande planlagstiftning. Examensarbetet syftar till att studera hur det kommunala planmonopolet kommit att utvecklas och om reformerSince the introduction of the municipal planning monopoly in 1947 following the Housing Social Investigation, the planning legislation has been reformed several times. In this thesis, the historical development of both the municipal planning monopoly and its associated planning legislation is studied.
