Då utvecklingen av digital kommunikation bland annat leder till mindre öga-mot-öga-kontakt (F2F), var studiens syfte att undersöka om olika nivåer av F2F-kontakt korrelerar med den interpersonella tilliten mellan chef och anställd. En enkätundersökning med 60 yrkesverksamma deltagare genomfördes, och resultaten visade inga signifikanta samband mellan F2F och tillit, något som i viss mån skiljer siSince less face-to-face contact (F2F) is one of the implications of digital communication development, this study was designed to examine if different levels of F2F-contact correlates with interpersonal trust between employees and their manager. A survey with 60 participants was conducted, and the results showed no significant relationship between F2F and trust, to some extent making it stand out

The purpose of this study was to examine ten women's experiences of negative sanctions for entering into a love-marriage, especially the negative sanction of reduced kin-support, and in which way this can be perceived to be of significance when it comes to women's capability to manage the challenges experienced in married life. This has been done by applying a qualitative research strategy

Syftet är att undersöka hur ett miljonprogramsområde kan förbättra imagen genom att sammankopplas med ett populärt turistmål. Det vi kommer fram till är att bostadsområdet har inte tillräckligt goda förutsättningar idag för att bli ett attraktivt område och måste därför först göra förbättringar på plats innan en sammankoppling med det populära turistmålet kan tas i beaktning. Trots att det finns f

The transformational mode of sustainability science is concerned with generating actionable knowledge and practical solutions to complex sustainability challenges in order to facilitate a transition towards sustainability by strategizing transformational pathways. However, some scholars in the field believe that sustainability science lacks such capacity, since so far greater focus has been put on

Scientific summary There is a bidirectional relation between climate and vegetation distribution at local as well as global scale. Changes in climate pattern modify the terrestrial vegetation distribution that in turn affects the climate system by altering the balance of radiation, water, momentum, CO2 and other important atmospheric gases. The large-scale changes in vegetation structure and compo

Study on value creation for acquiring companies in Sweden in the years 2002-2009. The study is carried out by using both event- and accounting study methodology and the value creation is studied in short, medium and long-term. We find significant positive average abnormal returns of 2.82% at the announcement, which is steady until 5 days post the announcement. We find no significant abnormal chang

Denna journalstudie har som mål att utvärdera den nya objektiva mätmetoden Auditory Steady-State Response (ASSR). Den introducerades vid Audiologisk avdelning i Malmö i samband med att neonatal hörselscreening startade i Region Skåne hösten 2005. Syftet med att införa mätmetoden var att kunna styrka vilka av de hörseltestade barnen som var i behov av tidig intervention genom hörapparat eller cochl

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Gallring är en viktig del i det moderna skogsbruket. I Sverige har gallring skett i ca 150 år och i början av 1900-talet ökade intresset då pappersmassaindustrin tog fart. Detta ledde till ett ökat intresse för mindre träd och successivt så ökade behovet att utveckla strategier och gallringsmetodiker. I Sverige genomförs gallringar med 10-25 års intervall och manThe aim of this study was to investigate the growth of individual trees and the effects of thinning in a stand of spruce and pine. This was made through tests of regression between a competition index (CI), which depended on distance and diameter of neighbouring trees, and needle mass (NM), compared to basal area growth (BA growth) and dry-weight. The data used in this study was collected over the

Result This thesis has resulted in a new Project Management (PM) tool for the Scania Engine Development Project Coordination group, customized for engine development long-term test planning and tracking. The PM tool also shows resource use, capacity, and forecast of all Scania’s engine test benches located in Sweden, Germany and Brazil. Issue of study As a result of the continuously increasing

Kvinnor tjänar forfarande mindre än vad män gör i Sverige. 2011 var löneskillnaden 85.9%, hela arbetsmarknaden inkluderad. I den här uppsatsen visar jag att löneskillnaderna har sin orsak i den socialt konstruerade genusstrukturen som påverkar samhällets statussammansättningsprocesser och till exempel arbetsfördelningen inom hemmet. Förekomsten av direkt diskriminering, fördelningsdiskriminering o

Background: With todays’ requirement of shorter product life cycles and faster time-to-market, producing companies experience an increased demand for faster transports in the supply chain. This puts pressure on freight forwarders to offer their customers a timely and reliable transport service at a reasonable price. Another challenge for the freight forwarders in Sweden is to provide such services

In July of 2009 punitive measures were taken by the Swedish government in order to deal with the somewhat new phenomenon known as grooming. The law, called “contact with children for sexual purposes” requires that the adult perpetrator contacts a child, with the purpose of committing sexual offences at a future meeting with the child. Although the law was received with gratitude from many parts of

The thesis explores online knowledge production around a subject that has been considered taboo and inappropriate through history – sexual, reproductive and genital health for people with female genitals. Therefore, it also examines the political potential of coming together to openly discuss such “delicate issues”. The focus of the study is the Swedish Facebook-group “Fittlife – underliv och häls

Rådande rättsläge ger antydningar om att den avdragsrätt ekonomiska föreningar erhåller för lämnad utdelning under vissa omständigheter kan brukas på ett otillbörligt sätt. Syftet med denna framställning är att genom den rättsdogmatiska metoden försöka utreda vilka förutsättningar som måste föreligga för att ett fåmansföretag och dess ägare vid utdelning, ska kunna åtnjuta skattemässiga fördelar v

The aim of this study was to examine how death and mourning is portrayed in children’s books used in social work. A selection of five books, all written relatively recently and originating from Western European countries, was made based on advice from a hospital library, an important resource for medical social workers. These books were analyzed using content analysis, where we searched for themes

Achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) depends on timely and reliable information. However, standardized methodologies and regularly available data exist for only 40% of the 232 indicators. The “Data Revolution for Sustainable Development” is supposed to bridge these data gaps by harnessing ongoing developments in information technology, particularly big data. Currently existing pil

Power systems operate at a specific frequency and constantly require a balance between production and consumption of electricity in order to maintain the frequency within a certain interval. Larger frequency deviations can cause blackouts or damage equipment connected to the grid. Balancing functions that stabilise the grid are referred to as \textit{ancillary services}, which in Sweden include th

Deciduous forests and especially oak (Quercus robur) and beech (Fagus sylvatica) are very important for biodiversity and provide habitats for many threatened species. They are also good environments for recreation. Bruces forest in Helsingborg is a nature reserve where rejuventation of deciduous forest is a main objective. Hence, this study examined factors influencing rejuvenation, different reju
