Social norms guide humans’ everyday behavior, and previous research has shown that social norms consistently predict some forms of political participation. Failure to conform to norms may lead to deviation and possible rejection, which humans innately seek to avoid since it threatens their need for belongingness. Following an episode of rejection, individuals are therefore likely to become increas
Inom identitetsforskning finns det olika definitioner av identitet. För att få en djupare förståelse för begreppet identitet, har jag valt att undersöka hur kosovoalbaner förhåller sig till sin identitet i ett svenskt samhälle. De empiriska uppgifterna samlades in genom kvalitativa semi-strukturerade intervjuer. Min analys baserades på begreppen identitet, tillhörighet och kultur. Baserat på det e
Climate-induced migration has received an increased amount of attention as an area of research. Earlier studies identify ideal typical discourses of climate-induced migration, in which climates migrants have been positioned as a ‘threat’, as ‘passive victims’ and most recently as ‘adaptable agent’. Drawing on poststructural discourse theory of Laclau and Mouffe and postcolonial theory this essay h
Electromechanical oscillations is a power system phenomenon where generator rotors oscillate, leading to oscillatory power flows. Damping of such oscillations is important for system stability. Forced oscillations is a special case where one faulty component is the source of the oscillation. This report concerns the Dissipating Energy Flow (DEF), which is an energy-based method for analysing dampi
Some theological schools consider the human conscience to be subordinate as a means to revelation of God’s nature compared to the biblical text. This can lead the reader of these texts to do violence to their own conscience by conforming it to the perceived biblical witness, although the two (the reader’s conscience and the biblical witness) can appear as in stark contrast to one another. A cognit
Purpose: To investigate if it is possible to earn abnormal returns from the accruals based trading strategy in Sweden. The aim is also to examine if the benchmark used when classifying firms into accruals portfolios has an impact on the abnormal returns from the trading strategy. Methodology: The study investigates the abnormal returns from the trading strategy that aims to exploit the accruals a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Infektiös hepatit eller gulsot kan orsakas av flera olika sorters virus. De har alla det gemensamt att de orsakar en inflammation av levern. Namnet gulsot kommer av att när leverns funktion nedsätts så ansamlas ett färgämne i kroppen och ger ögonvitorna och huden en synlig gulgrön färg. Efter hand som de olika gulsotsvirusen har upptäckts har de namngivits efter alfabetHepatitis B virus is a non-cytopathic virus with a small, circular, partially double-stranded DNA of 3.2 kb. It causes acute and chronic inflammatory liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Retesting of stored sera from an outbreak of acute hepatitis in 1969-72 allowed identification of 126 cases of acute hepatitis B. No chronic carriers expressing hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) cou
The primary focus of this study is to determine the effect of additional education on the wage earnings structure in Uganda. The study is empirical and uses data obtained through the Uganda National Housing Survey (UNHS) 2015/16 in the World Bank Database. The study employs the Mincerian wage function as the main model with different specifications that cater for urban-rural, regional and gender d
Metoderna som används för att göra den globala livsmedelsförsörjningen tryggare har bytt fokus från själva produktionen av jordbruksgrödor till att öka människors tillgänglighet till marknader. Analyser visar att det finns ett samband mellan inkomst, avlägsenhet, och hur stor andel av god jordbruksmark faktiskt används för jordbruk. För att beräkna tillgänglighet krävs fullständig, uppdaterad, ocContemporary approaches to improving food security amongst the world’s vulnerable populations have shifted from attempts to improve crop yield to improving accessibility to markets. Analyses show that there is a correlation between income, distance from cities, and the ratio of potential agricultural production to realised agricultural production.
