This thesis explores how the relationship between economic shocks and fertility rates has evolved in Spain from 1977 to 2024, using regional panel data across the country’s 17 autonomous communities. The analysis applies two-way fixed effects models to assess whether the impact of economic variables, particularly unemployment, has diminished over time, as demographic and cultural factors have gain
The purpose of this thesis is to apply Value Network Theory (VNT) to the understanding of customer integration and co-creation in Public Transport Authorities (PTAs). It aims to identify key challenges and opportunities in this shift, and to provide deeper insights into how PTAs, such as Skånetrafiken and SL, can strategically transition from a traditional value chain model to a more customer-incl

This study investigates how expiration dates and dynamic shelf life labels influence consumer preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for fresh chicken products. Using a discrete choice experiment (DCE), the research evaluates the impact of shelf life duration, price, and the presence of a real-time freshness indicator on consumer decision-making. A sample of fresh chicken consumers in Lund, Swed
Mental Imagery (MI) allows us to simulate real-life experiences and visualise events we have never witnessed, but what happens when we change the language of the narrative? This study investigated how language context (L1 vs. L2) influences the vividness of mental imagery and the emotional intensity associated with that imagery during narrative comprehension. A total of 58 sequential bilinguals fr
Railway networks are a critical component of modern transportation systems, but their efficiency is often challenged by disturbances that propagate through the network, leading to delays and reduced punctuality. This thesis investigates station-level disturbances and their duration, with the aim of developing a foundation for an online tool that can estimate disturbance durations. Using historical
Tidewater glaciers on Svalbard are sensitive indicators of climate change and play a crucial role for Arctic ecosystems. The widespread retreat of tidewater glaciers across Svalbard highlights the need to quantify retreat rates and project when these glaciers will become land-terminating. This study investigates tidewater glacier retreat during historical (1936–1990) and present (2012–2024) period
This thesis provides an ethnographic analysis of the experiences and expectations of international employees working within large companies within the Skåne region of Sweden. The research explores how these individuals perceive their positionality and integration into the dominant Swedish office culture. It highlights how they navigate and negotiate social roles, cultural scripts, and the emotiona
This thesis explores how authenticity is constructed, negotiated, and contested within the context of dog sledding tourism in Lapland, a region marked by cultural complexity and ongoing postcolonial dynamics. The Finnish Sámi Parliament has voiced strong opposition towards husky safaris, framing the practice as a symbol of cultural displacement due to its lack of historical roots in the region. Th

Popular Abstract in Swedish För cirka 1,8 miljarder år sedan, medan Skandinaviens urberg var under uppbyggnad, kristalliserade en järnrik magma till ett mörkt bergartskomplex av bergarterna gabbro och diorit. Denna magma hade bildats genom delvis uppsmältning av manteln under den dåvarande kontinentkanten, transporterats flera tiotals kilometer uppåt genom sprickor i jordskorpan och på vägen upp dThe Kleva Ni-Cu sulphide deposit is situated within a gabbro-diorite intrusive complex in southeast Sweden. The basement north of the intrusive complex is dominated by 1.81–1.77 Ga granites of the Palaeoproterozoic Transscandinavian Igneous Belt (TIB). Slightly older (1.83–1.82 Ga) rocks of the Oskarshamn Jönköping Belt, which hosts numerous syngenetic and epigenetic base metal mineralisations, oc
Prostate cancer (PC) develops from an androgen-dependent tissue that contains androgen receptors in both the stromal and glandular compartments. Surgical removal of the prostate may cure the patient, but if metastatic spread has occurred, androgen suppression therapy is the standard treatment. However, most men will eventually fail this therapy and develop recurrent androgen-independent disease, f
While each new generation of processors gets larger caches and more compute power, external memory bandwidth capabilities increase at a much lower pace. Additionally, processors are equipped with wide vector units that require low instruction level divergence to be efficiently utilized. In order to exploit these trends in ray tracing, we present an alternative to traditional depth-first ray traver
Popular Abstract in Swedish Parkinsons sjukdom är en av våra mest förekommande neurologiska sjukdomar som drabbar den åldrande befolkningen. I åldersgruppen 50-60 år drabbas ca 1 procent av sjukdomen, som karakteriseras av de motoriska symptomen stelhet, långsamma rörelser och skakningar. Symptomen beror på en gradvis förlust av nervceller i en djup del av hjärnan vid namn substantia nigra (den svL-DOPA pharmacotherapy in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is associated with adverse effects occurring after a few years of treatment. Among these, dyskinesia (abnormal involuntary movements) is particularly common and potentially disabling. The causes behind dyskinesia are not completely understood, but intense research has identified a number of neuronal alterations associated with L-DOPA-induced dyski
Purpose: Diagnosis of chronic atrophic fundal gastritis (CAFG) is important to understand the pathogenesis of gastric diseases and assess the risk of gastric cancer. Autofluorescence imaging videoendoscopy (AFI) may enable the detection of mucosal features not apparent by conventional white-light endoscopy. The purpose of this study was to estimate the diagnostic ability of AFI in CAFG. Methods: A
