The aim of this thesis is to explore how contextual factors shape experiences of work-related precariousness in a sparsely populated municipality in northern Sweden. In the thesis, the concept of precariousness is operationalized as relating to three dimensions: income, employment stability and employability, and access to social security. These dimensions are explored qualitatively through semi-s
Denna uppsats handlar om användning av artificiell intelligens i skol- och utbildningsmiljö, samt de potentiella utmaningar och hinder som finns för artikel 5(1)(a) AI förordningen, att försäkra uppfyllandet av barns rätt till tanke- och samvetsfrihet, i artikel 14 Barnkonventionen. De aktuella frågeställningarna i denna uppsats är: Hur försäkrar artikel 5(1)(a) AI förordningen uppfyllandet av baThis thesis investigates the use of AI within the educational environment, specifically the school environment, and the potential challenges and barriers for article 5(1)(a) AI Act, to ensure the realization of the children’s right to freedom of thought and conscience, under article 14 UNCRC. The research questions are: How does article 5(1)(a) AI Act ensure the realization of the children’s righ
This thesis explores the representations of homelessness by the not-for-profit association Emmaüs in France through the lens of deservingness and the impact of social control of the French government on these representations. The representation of homelessness is an important issue as Emmaüs uses this representation to determine the scope of its services and the deservingness of the homeless they
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a promising architecture for improving the accuracy and contextual relevance of large language models, particularly in high-stakes domains such as the financial sector. This thesis explores how Scandinavian financial institutions perceive and address the security risks associated with RAG systems. Guided by the CIAAN framework (Confidentiality, I
This thesis examines the Indonesian Government Regulation 25/24, which enables re-ligious organizations to obtain mining concessions, focusing on the socio-legal ten-sions, and power dynamics between the government, regulation, and religious organi-zations. The thesis’ primary purpose is to critically analyze how regulation that is pre-sented in neutral and technocratic language and can be utilize
I takt med utvecklingen av AI-genererad media, har allmänhetens uppfattning om sådant innehåll förändrats. Studier visar att innehåll som märks som AI genererat interageras mindre med jämfört med innehåll märkta som mänskligt skapat. Mot denna bakgrund undersöker uppsatsen eventuella metoder för att verifiera att innehåll är skapat av en människa, i synnerhet ifall rätten till namngivelse kan fungWith the rise of AI generated media, a shift in the audience perception of AI generated content has taken place, where studies show that content which is labelled as AI will be less interacted with compared to human labelled content. The thesis therefore examines possible methods for verifying human made content, in particular, whether copyright’s right of attribution can act as a veri-fier for hu
The aim of this special issue is to advance research on biblical reception in Scandinavian contexts and to offer new insights into the intricate relationship between religiosity and secularity more broadly. This is done by engaging with theoretical questions concerning religion, secularity, and biblical reception in the modern world. In this introduction, we contextualize the special issue in rela
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has in recent years gained increasing attention as a climate solution. In Denmark, geological CO2-storage was earlier rejected, but in 2020 CCS was incorporated into national climate policy as key to reach the country’s 2030 target. In this article we investigate the incorporation of CCS into Danish climate policy as a case of mitigation deterrence. Through the con
Background: Isothiazolinones are widely used as preservatives in both cosmetic and non-cosmetic products. Sensitisation to isothiazolinones other than chloromethylisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone (CMIT/MIT), present in the baseline series, is increasing. Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of sensitisation to benzisothiazolinone (BIT) in comparison to CMIT/MIT and to develop a product-i
The transition toward a circular economy is driving rapid growth in the recycling sector, yet occupational exposure remains poorly characterized, including exposure to phthalates and bisphenols. We conducted a human biomonitoring study among recycling workers handling e-waste, metal waste, and mixed waste in Sweden. The study included 114 exposed workers, 23 low-exposed workers, and 18 controls. P
Anthropogenic elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (eCO2) increases carbon (C) availability to plants. Whether ecosystems store or release this additional C depends on the balance between net primary production (NPP) and soil respiration, where eCO2-stimulated NPP can be constrained by the provisioning of nutrients by microbial decomposers. Ecosystems gradually become more phosphorus (P)-limited as
Multiple-choice tests are the gateway to important professional outcomes in the Spanish health sector. Every year, thousands of nursing, psychology, pharmacy, and biology graduates take a multiple-choice test, with wrong answers penalized, in order to access an intern position in a hospital. In such tests, willingness to guess, the decision to provide an answer instead of omitting the question can
The thesis explores to which extent it is possible for an individual to live in accordance with his or her chosen gender identity within the framework of the European Convention on Human Rights, and within the conventional right to privacy in particular. The specific research question has been to find out whether a right to decide one's gender identity has emerged in the European Court of Huma
