The present study investigates the importance of the male characters in four short stories written by women. Said stories are: “La culpa es de los Tlaxcaltecas” by Elena Garro, “Lección de cocina” and “Cabecita blanca” by Rosario Castellanos and “La muñeca menor” de Rosario Ferré. The aim of the study is to break the prevailing trend of analyzing this type of literature from a perspective where fo
Målet med denna studie är att undersöka betydelsen av det diagnostiska värdet hos en ledtråd, en så kallad “cue” framför värdet av ett kontextuellt överlapp mellan inkodning och framplockning av minnen. Ett minnestest grundat på ledtrådsbaserat igenkännande, så kallat “cued recognition”, genomfördes. Samtliga deltagare presenterades för ordpar tillsammans med kontextuella bilder i tre betingelser,The aim of this study is to investigate the importance of a diagnostic cue over the mere contextual overlap between encoding and retrieval in successful retention. A cued recognition test was conducted to investigate the power of a contextual cues diagnostic value in successful retrieval of memories. Participants were presented with word pairs together with a picture background in three different
This master thesis explores the concept of ecosystem services, in the context of urban planning in Swedish municipalities, with the purpose of putting together a planning development tool for urban ecosystem services. The working process consisted of three steps: (1) to identify problems in the Swedish planning process, (2) to identify relevant aspects of ecosystem services and comprehensive plann
Collaboration Software is widely used in internal communication in the companies today. Software itself enables the companies to use variety of media with different properties and capabilities to mediate the communication on different corporate tasks. The way companies use the communication media implies the overall company performance. This study empirically examines the general propositions of M
Ferroelektricitet upptäcktes först 1921 av professorn Joseph Valasek i kaliumnatriumtartrat, ett ämne som är mer känt som "Rochelle salt". Valasek beskrev likheten mellan ferroelektricitet och det redan då väl beskrivna ferromagnetismen. Likt ferromagnetiska material och deras permanenta magnetiska poler uppvisar ferroelektiska material en permanent elektrisk polarisation, en separation

Alkanes offer great and barely utilised potential for usage as raw materials in large-scale chemical processes. Their lack of reactivity, however, warrants methods of manipulating and transforming them in an efficient and mild way, which can potentially be realised by employing homogeneous catalysis using pincer complexes. A reliable procedure for the synthesis and diastereomer-separation of 2-met
This paper empirically investigates the determinants of climate change perceptions across Europe, focusing on how political orientation and human values affect attribution- and trend belief, perceived impacts of climate change and climate concern. Previous studies in this field of research have ignored the risk of reverse causality, which is addressed in this paper by conducting the epidemiologica
In this study I have examined the representation of masculinity in several recent Japanese media productions through a qualitative content analysis with a focus on discursive practices and the hegemonic and subordinate masculinity theories established by R.W. Connell. The focus of the study is Ninomiya Kazunari, an established Japanese actor and member of the five man idol group Arashi, produced b
Games regarding money can be seen as entertainment and a thrill in life. However, gambling can also lead to financial difficulties when it develops into an addiction. The Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare equates gambling addiction with other addictions such as alcohol and tobacco. The marketing of tobacco and alcohol is restrictively regulated by law, unlike the marketing of games. The
