In this study 235 Swedes were participated in a survey about how they experienced three different electoral systems regarding hoThe purpose of this study was to examine the relation between technostress, performance based self-esteem (PBS) and burnout among employees, further if technostress beyond PBS could act as a predictor for burnout. The participants in the study were white collar workers from a Swedish manufacturing industry who on a daily basis were using computer and information technology in their work. These com
The popularity of the Netflix series ‘Drive To Survive’ has almost doubled the amount of Formula 1 (F1) fans thanks to its great storytelling and compelling narratives about the drivers, teams, the rivalries between them and challenges they tackle. The first season aired in 2019 and it is estimated that more than 6.8 million people have watched the show. As a result, the F1 brand is stronger than
Current post-carbon transition trajectories are primarily based on a belief in technical solutions wherein considerations of the citizens’ role in collective mobilisation and transformation are largely overlooked. To this end, the thesis seeks to understand how citizens can become active agents of change within transition efforts and how their political agency can be empowered accordingly. This, b
This study examines the impact of newly built parks on housing prices in New York City between 2011 and 2023. The case of New York City is especially interesting due to its high amount of new urban greening projects during the last few decades. Related to the different benefits of urban greening, there is evidence that parks increase the desirability of a neighborhood and thereby raise property va
This paper analyses how international status aspiration influences the foreign policy decisions of two emerging powers, India and Brazil. Drawing on status theory, specifically social identity theory, the research examines how the two countries pursue similar global and regional recognition goals despite significantly different geopolitical environments, histories, and populations. Further, they a
This thesis investigates whether incorporating the Christoffersen independence test into regulatory backtesting frameworks can enhance financial stability by improving the detection of systemic risk. Using daily Value-at-Risk and profit-and-loss data from 13 major international banks over 2018–2022, the study distinguishes between clustered and isolated VaR exceptions, applying event studies and p

Background: This study explored peer-led sex education for individuals with intellectual disabilities and/or autism (ID/ASD) from the perspective of project leaders within Swedish non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The purpose of this Grounded Theory study was to develop a conceptual model that characterizes the ways in which peer-led sex education is implemented by Swedish NGOs. This was done
The Arctic-Boreal region is projected to experience spatially divergent trends in snow depth following climate change. However, the impact of these spatial trends has remained largely unexplored, despite potentially large consequences for the carbon cycle. To address this knowledge gap, we forced a customised arctic version of the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS with daily CMIP6 outputs from a
This article intends to raise questions related to nationalism in South Asia, while also addressing the rationale for this special issue. Is nationalism a monolithic construct based on a European precedent or is it something much larger that is developed pluralistically in a variety of contexts around the world? If the latter is true, which is our position, then how do we go about studying the var
Due to the global demographic change many more people will need to work until anolder age, and organisations and enterprises need to implement measures to facilitate an extendedworking life. The aim of this study was to investigate organisational measures and suggestionsto promote and make improvements for a healthy and sustainable working life for all ages in anextended working life. This is a qu
Dredging operations in ports, rivers, and waterways are essential for maintaining navigable depths, but they result in large volumes of dredged sediments (DS) that are often unsuitable for immediate reuse due to their high moisture content, low strength, and contamination. Stabilization and solidification (S/S) techniques are widely employed to improve the geotechnical properties of DS, making the
