Mobila teknologier har medfört en ökad flexibilitet i anställdas vardag. Detta har kommit att påverka de anställdas balans mellan arbete och fritid då de tilldelas arbetsuppgifter även på sin fritid. I denna studie undersökte vi hur dessa anställda upplever att smarttelefonen påverkar denna balans. Syftet var att belysa vilken inverkan den flexibilitet som smarttelefonen frambringar har på balanse

Syfte: Undersökningen syftar till att utreda den effekt införandet av en granskning, vid sidan av revisionen, av finansiella rapporter får på dels synen på redovisning och revision, dels den faktiska redovisningen. Uppsatsen syftar även till att diskutera möjligheten för Panelen att utföra den faktiska övervakningen av företagens finansiella rapporter. Metod: Då det studerade fenomenet är relativt

Globaliseringen av kulturen, ekonomin och politiken leder till gränsöverskridande interaktioner för många aktörer mellan regioner och länder. I takt med att kommunikationen blir allt snabbare och når allt fler platser ökar kontakten mellan människor och ger ögonblickligen information om händelser från alla jordens hörn. Nya innovationer och medicinska genombrott stärker livskvaliteten och ökar livThe globalization of culture, economy and politics leads to cross-border interactions of actors across regions and countries. As communication gets faster and reaching more places contact between people is increasing and information on events from every corner of the world is accessible. New innovations and medical breakthroughs will strengthen the quality of life and increase life expectancy for

In the field of second language acquisition (SLA) it is an important question, which role the native language assumes in the acquisition of another language. Studies have shown that there exists a native language influence on a phonological and lexical level. The situation in syntax is however different. Here a native language influence (transfer) is not self-evident.

Uppsatsen undersöker den skönlitterära läsupplevelsen i applikationen Iceberg Reader för Iphone. Vid uppsatsens tillkomst var läsapplikationer för Iphone och Ipad något nylanserat i Sverige, och få läsare hade erfarenhet av läsning via denna plattform. Med hjälp av två kvalitativa undersökningar – en enkät, där nio personer deltog, och en fokusgruppsundersökning, där fem av de nio var med – har vi

This study aims to investigate changes in mental health of a group of male refugees. The estimates are done before and after initial stabilization treatment, performed at the Red Cross treatment center for war wounded and tortured in Malmö. Validated and well-known self-assessment tool for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety have been used. The estimates are made on three

Pollutant transport in the unsaturated soil zone is a potential threat to surface and ground water resources. The intensity and volume of rainfall are the parameters that decide how fast and deep the pollutants will be transported. Climate models predict a future rainfall climate with higher total volume and higher intensities. In the present study we try to assess effects on unsaturated solute tr

Welding fumes were recently classified as carcinogenic to humans and worldwide millions work as welders or perform welding operations. The purpose of this study was to identify new biomarkers of welding-induced carcinogenesis. We evaluated a panel of 91 putative cancer-related proteins in serum in a cohort of welders working with mild steel (n = 77) and controls (n = 94) from southern Sweden sampl

Here, we describe the generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, from a male patient diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD). The patient carries a heterozygous variation p.A53T in the SNCA gene. Skin fibroblasts were reprogrammed using the non-integrating Sendai virus technology to deliver OCT3/4, SOX2, c-MYC and KLF4 factors. The generated iPSC line (CSC-32) preserved the mutati

The use of public demand to spur innovation has recently seen a very significant in-crease in political support. Such a policy promises improvement of public services on all state levels, combined with a contribution to innovation dynamics. It has become clear that strong efforts are needed to mobilise procurement at all state levels for inno-vative markets. These efforts need to be based on a bet

Background: Production of second-generation bioethanol and other bulk chemicals by yeast fermentation requirescells that tolerate inhibitory lignocellulosic compounds at low pH. Saccharomyces cerevisiae displays high plasticitywith regard to inhibitor tolerance, and adaptation of cell populations to process conditions is essential for reachingefficient and robust fermentations.Results: In this stu

Modelling tools used in impact assessment procedures can be regarded as tools for communication between science and policy. In order to create an integrated system for modelling not only the scientific components have to be in place but also the science/policy interfaces in the assessment procedures have to be identified and their social dynamics understood.To make a system like SEAMLESS Integrate
