I ett samhälle där bilismen ökar blir en mer hållbar bilism allt viktigare. Sverige har satt upp som mål att ha en fossiloberoende fordonsflotta till 2030 och en helt fossilfri fordonsflotta till 2050. För att kunna uppnå detta spelar elbilen en viktig roll. Genom intervjuer med olika aktörer på den svenska marknaden visas i detta examensarbete att en stor tilltro sätts till elbilen, vid sidan av In a society with growing car mobility, sustainable motorism becomes increasingly important. Sweden has set targets of having a fossil fuel independent vehicle fleet by 2030 and a fossil free vehicle fleet by 2050.In order to reach these targets the electric car plays an important role. Through interviews with different actors on the Swedish market, this thesis shows that much confidence is put in

Adaptive capacity based on organisational learning (OL) is at once a critical imperative facing humanitarian organisations in their mission to save lives and support communities most at risk; and inherently evidenced as an enduring weakness over the past decades. Vulnerability and Capacity Assessments (VCA) are community-based risk assessments established for their utility in supporting communitie

Keywords: Retro branding, message framing, message sequencing, nostalgia proneness, consumer innovativeness, willingness to try, Fast-moving consumer goods, new product brands, retail environment. Purpose: The study addresses the limited understanding of retro branding´s effectiveness in retail environments, particularly for new FMCG product brands without established heritage. It explores how

This thesis examines the influence of a foreign-born background on students’ educational choices in Sweden, focusing on the selection between vocational and university preparatory programmes in upper secondary education (gymnasium). Recognising that personal experiences and social contexts shape such decisions, a qualitative methodology was adopted to explore the underlying motivations and influen

There are arguments around the nature and boundaries of the moral domain, with this current paper aiming to delineate one of these arguments. With a basis in George Sher's (2021) discussion of cognitions (beliefs, fantasies, attitudes and some thoughts), the paper defends the notion that they are, in fact, morally relevant. By combining the logic of truth-aptness with the phenomenology of agen

Option valuation is typically done under the unrealistic assumption of perfect knowledge about model parameters. This thesis shows that risk-neutral valuation, while still adressing the parameter uncertainty, can be computed for a variety of models within the Fourier framework. This results in a computationally inexpensive method for valuating options. A study of S&P500 index option data shows

This paper investigates how compassion with and understanding for the suffering of the other is constructed by the media and why certain choices are made with respect to coverage and framing. Articles published in the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter in relation to three different cases that all take place in Haiti have been surveyed by using quantitative content analysis and qualitative textual a

BACKGROUND: Swedish policy states that older adults should be able to age safely with continued independence and lead active lives. However, this plays out differently in different Swedish municipalities depending upon degree of demographic change, globalization, and urbanization. Internationally, older adults living in disadvantaged areas have worse physical and mental health, activity restrictio

This paper documents different attitudes towards local renewable energy technology (RET) projects in Denmark among two key RET stakeholder groups, permanent area residents (PRs) and second home owners (SHOs). It does so via survey data collected from almost 2000 respondents during a Danish near-shore wind farm tender. Judging by this data, local PRs are positive towards the planned local RETs, whi

Recreational hunting evokes emotions and could be described as a contested space. The paper presents a study of recreational hunting in Sweden, focusing on accounts and narratives from ethnographic interviews with hunting tourism operators. It discusses how the notion of sustainability permeates and frames moral accounts of hunting practices, game meat, wildlife management, business ethics, animalRecreational hunting evokes emotions and could be described as a contested space.

A modern diesel engine is a reliable and efficient mean of producing power. A way to reduce harmful exhaust and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and secure the sources of energy is to develop technology for an efficient diesel engine operation independent of fossil fuels. Renewable diesel fuels are compatible with diesel engines without any major modifications. Rapeseed oil methyl esters (RME) and o

Analysis of naturally occurring isotopic variations is a promising tool for investigating Zn transport and cycling in geological and biological settings. Here, we present the recently installed double-spike (DS) technique at the MAGIC laboratories at Imperial College London. The procedure improves on previous published DS methods in terms of ease of measurement and precisions obtained. The analyti

Background: Digital work can be cognitively challenging especially for people with cognitive difficulties. New occupational therapy interventions are needed to empower these persons to self-manage challenges in digital work and everyday life. To address this need, the internet-based intervention 'Strategies for Empowering Activities in Everyday Life' (SEE 2.0) was tested.Aim: To explore and descri

The results of a search for new phenomena in final states with b-jets and missing transverse momentum using 139 fb−1 of proton-proton data collected at a centre-of-mass energy s = 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the LHC are reported. The analysis targets final states produced by the decay of a pair-produced supersymmetric bottom squark into a bottom quark and a stable neutralino. The analysis also

Based on a discrete choice experiment with 336 consumers, this study investigated whether the consumer propensity to choose a simplified European Union (EU) vs. non-EU denomination of origin for beef, instead of a specific country-of-origin (COO) denomination, depends upon the amount and type of credence information provided to the individual. The likelihood of choosing the EU/non-EU denomination

Background: Work and other everyday activities are beneficial for well-being among people with mental illness, but poor circumstances can create detrimental effects, possibly aggravated by additional vulnerabilities linked with their mental illness. This study aimed to investigate how activity factors were related to well-being and functioning among three vulnerable groups using outpatient mental

Background: Carotid atherosclerotic plaques with intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) are associated with elevated stroke risk. IPH is predominantly imaged based on paramagnetic properties of the upstream hemoglobin degradation product methemoglobin. This is an explorative observational study to test the feasibility of a spoiled gradient echo based T2* weighted MRI sequence (3D MEDIC) for carotid plaque i
