Title: The Role of Concept Stores: Consumer Perceptions of the Intended Brand Image Seminar date: 2024-05-30 Course: BUSN39, Degree Project in Global Marketing, Business Administration: Master Level Authors: Petra Ohlson & Emma Stenkil Supervisor: Ulf Johansson Research question: Why are fashion manufacturing brands opening concept stores? How does consumers' perception of the concept stor

Agricultural fertilisation increases crop yields but can cause environmental damage, thus reductions in inorganic fertiliser application have been advocated. Farmer usage of phosphate rock has declined over the last decade, which may lead to soil nutrient depletion that undermines future crop production. We investigated the long-term (55 years) effects of eight different inorganic fertiliser regim

Gambling problems often coexist with various psychopathological conditions. The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP; Kotov et al., 2017) offers an empirically based model to structure psychopathological symptoms into broader dimensional spectra, including internalizing (anxious-depressive), externalizing (impulsive-aggressive), and thought disorder (dissociated-psychotic) symptoms. The

Geothermal energy is one of the oldest and most sustainable energy sources and has been used for thousands of years. The temperature of the ground at shallow depth is fairly constant, above the air temperature in winter and lower than the ambient temperature in summer. Shallow geothermal energy systems can thus be used to provide heating and cooling with or without heat pumps. This study aims to

In-work poverty is a societal problem that should be prevented according to the European Pillars of Social Rights. However, the European Social Fund Plus, being the main European social policy, only addresses the issue indirectly. The aim of this thesis is to build an explanation for this partial actuation of the European Union. By adopting an abductive approach, a process-tracing is conducted to

This thesis examines the enforcement of art 101 TFEU by the European Commission through the lens of the Charter, in particular, art 48(1) thereof which provides for the presumption of innocence. The fact that the fines imposed by the Commission in competition proceedings are considered to be ‘criminal charges’ by the ECtHR seems to have been settled for quite some time now. Granted, the EU has not

The actions of states are governed by norms. These norms regulate what is looked upon as desirable behaviour and what is not. In recent years the norm about women, peace and security has developed and resulted in the UN Security Coun-cil Resolution 1325. The aim of the resolution is to make peace processes more inclusive and take issues related to women into concern. Despite the resolution much is

Decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) contributes significantly to the global carbon (C) cycle and climate feedbacks. SOM decomposition depends on soil microbial activities, and these activities are driven by the availability of C and other nutrients. Plant root exudates are known to alter decomposition of SOM, a phenomenon referred to as rhizosphere priming effects (RPE).

Carbohydrates are involved in many cellular processes, and most biomolecules are glycosylated. Thesemodifications are used in biological systems as information carriers, helping regulate organization on the cell surfaceand interactions between cells and the environment. Galectins are a family of carbohydrate binding proteins thatbind to polysaccharides containing a galactose.

Stefan Larsson’s Conceptions in the Code makes a significant contribution to sociolegal analysis and also represents a valuable contribution to conceptual metaphor theory. By utilising the case of copyright in a digital context it explains the role that metaphor plays when the law is dealing with technological change, displaying both conceptual path-dependence as well as what is called non-legislaStefan Larsson's Conceptions in the Code contributes invaluably to socio-legal analysis and conceptual metaphor theory. By examining cases of digital copyright, Larsson elucidates the role that metaphor plays when law is accommodating technological change, displaying both conceptual path-dependence as well as non-legislative developments in law. Analyses draw from conceptual studies of property sp

The close linkage between iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P) suggests that changes in Fe speciation may have a strong effect on the bioavailability of P. At the same time Fe speciation in natural oxic environments is known to be affected by the presence of organic matter (OM), pH and total Fe concentrations, thus these parameters should also influence the Fe-P interactions. The main objective of the pre
