Why do viewers perceive and interpret visuals differently despite common perceptual and cognitive mechanisms? The article addresses a number of challenges in visual communication and underlines the need for empirical analyses from a recipient perspective. Perception and interpretation of visuals is seen as an interactive meeting between the recipient, the multimodal message and the situational con
The European public procurement regulation has been described as a restrictive force on PPP projects, especially in countries which employ a strict interpretation of the directives. One major limitation brought forward has been the restrictions on negotiations during the procurement procedure. In the literature it has been suggested that the negotiation would improve PPP performance because it all
Most OECD-countries, including Sweden, have during the last decades experienced a declining trend in the labour’s share – the ratio of incomes from employment in relation to the economy’s total income (GDP). This thesis analyses the declining labour’s share of the Swedish transport and communication sector 1920-2000. The transport and communication sector has gone through changes of importance to
In Sweden there was a government decision 2012 to implement a new level of care within the national psychiatric health care. The purpose with this study was to investigate the implementation ie a new means of organization in the psychiatric healthcare for children and adolescents in the city of Växjö. In this study we focus on the implementation nationwide in Sweden and specifically in our county.
The role of geographical distance on the flow of knowledge has been debated in empirical work over the past decades. The magnitude of this relationship is usually attributed to the type of knowledge in question; in which tacit knowledge—the focus of the thesis—is usually associated with a negative relationship. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate said role in the context of tacit knowledge f
Molybdenum complexes of 3,6-di-tert-butylcatechol have been prepared from the reaction between [Mo(CO)6] and 3,6-di-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone. A putative "[MoO(3,6-DBCat)2]" monomer is assumed to form initially by reaction with trace quantities of oxygen. Condensation of the reaction mixture leads to the formation of oligomeric products, including the [{MoO(3,6-DBCat)2}4] chiral square isolated
This article concerns the co-evolution of hominin cooperation, communication and cognition. Certain hominin ecologies seem to have relied on cognitive foresight. The capacity of planning for future needs, combined with more developed cooperative skills, opened up the cognitive niche of cooperation towards future goals. Such cooperation requires complex intersubjectivity (theory of mind). We analyz
