A lack of full scalar measurement invariance (MI) across groups of test takers is widely assumed to render sum scores incomparable between groups. Computing factor scores from partial-scalar-MI models has been proposed as a remedy. To what extent this scoring method affects personality assessment in diagnostic contexts has yet not been investigated. The present master thesis explored this question
This paper analyzes Donald Trump’s evolving rhetoric on undocumented migration during the Biden administration, building on previous literature related to the use of language to delegitimize migrants. Employing a discourse analysis based on Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse theory, we examine Donald Trump's remarks surrounding illegal immigrants in the United States through 7 major speeches from 2
A survey was performed over all university libraries within the Association of European Research Libraries (LIBER) in order to study how different methods of user input are utilized. Libraries using analysis based on explorative methods—such as UX and process mapping—report significantly increased user knowledge and perceived well-function. Over three-fourths of the respondents reported performing
This thesis explores how intrapreneurs can be recognized as insider threats. Nine different perspectives are presented, including deviant intrapreneurs, threatened and threatening resources, and subcultures on the tactical/operative level. Intrapreneurs are employees who use their entrepreneurial spirit for the benefit of their organizations. Insider threats are people who, through authorized acce
BACKGROUND: Leptospirosis, caused by spirochetes of the genus Leptospira, is one of the most widespread zoonoses worldwide. Efficient diagnostic methods for early diagnosis of leptospirosis are still lacking, and acute disease presents with nonspecific symptomatology and is often misdiagnosed. The leptospires pathogenic processes and virulence mechanisms remain virtually unknown. In severe infecti
During the last decade research in the scientific domain of information systems (IS) in corporate mergers and acquisitions (M&As) has become increasingly popular. A not very surprising development regarding the significance of the empirical phenomenon of M&A and the importance of IS for modern business. However, the idea of IS playing an important role in M&As rests on assumptions, ane
Until recently studies regarding the pathological aspects of refugee experiences have led the psychology field of forced migration, giving little space to positive factors like the resilience and well-being of individuals faced with these adversities. This doctoral thesis emphasizes good health rather than disease and aims at deepening the understanding of resilience and health as opposed to the d
Pyranose 2-oxidase (P20x) has several proposed biotechnological applications such as a bio-component in biofuel cells or for carbohydrate transformations. To improve some of the catalytic properties of P20x from Trametes multicolor, we selected a semi-rational approach of enzyme engineering, saturation mutagenesis of active-site residues and subsequent screening of mutant libraries for improved ac
Abstract: Balanced microbiota of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is important for maintaining health of the host. Altered gut microbiota have been found to be associated with various life-style induced and other intestinal inflammatory diseases. Gut microbiota is viewed as a metabolic organ and considered as new target for therapies. This thesis describes the work on exploring the microbiota of th
Abstract Title: Capital structure at IPO for corporations with or without private equity owners Seminar date: 4th June 2015 Course: FEKH89, Degree project Undergraduate level, corporate finance, 15 HP Authors: Carl-Johan Molin, Philip Karlsson, Viktor Hedström & Truls Törnqvist Advisor: Håkan Jankensgård Key words: Private equity, capital structure, IPO, debt level, financing Purpose: The purp
Streptococcus pyogenes infects over 700 million people worldwide annually. Immune evasion strategies employed by the bacteria include binding of the complement inhibitors, C4b-binding protein (C4BP) and Factor H in a human-specific manner. We recently showed that human IgG increased C4BP binding to the bacterial surface, which promoted streptococcal immune evasion and increased mortality in mice.

Presented here is an engineered protein domain, based on Protein A, that displays a calcium-dependent binding to antibodies. This protein, ZCa, is shown to efficiently function as an affinity ligand for mild purification of antibodies through elution with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. Antibodies are commonly used tools in the area of biological sciences and as therapeutics, and the most commonl
