Happiness is an affect. Affects are thought to be part of our subjective experiences. In the past, human beings have constructed complex relationships with happiness outside of ourselves. Since sociocultural values laden to happiness established various linkages with objects, happiness seemed to become materialised and accessible, which is expressed, for example, as the UN’s World Happiness Report
In this survey, we shall prove the Lucas–Lehmer primality test used to find the Mersenne primes. A proof of the Law of Cubic Reciprocity will also be presented, which will be applied in the proof of a generalisation of the Lucas–Lehmer primality test.

Objectives: In this thesis we studied the performance of active extension portfolios constructed by using momentum/contrarian strategies. Fundamentally, the difference between the 130/30 and the long-only asset classes is the relaxation from the long-only constraint. The main implication of this study is to find out whether the 130/30 strategy is value adding, in comparison to other actively manag

In the present study we measured plasma CCK concentrations in acute experimental pancreatitis (AEP) in the rat, and evaluated the role of circulating CCK levels on the initial pancreatic damage in pancreatitis. METHODS: Endogenous hyperCCKemia was induced by surgical biliodigest

It utilizes the Copenhagen School’s securitization theory to identify speech acts of securitization and desecuritization in the speaking and writing of political actors within the Swedish Social Democratic Party, focusing on the securitization of Muslims. This is done through a qualitative context anal
Many retail chains believe that the personal service encounter is the solution to declining sales figures. Via a large-scale study of Swedish fashion consumers, we demonstrate, that this may not necessarily be the case. We argue that retailers can potentially save money and convert more customers by providing a more automated journey, which includes self-service technologies, for some customers, a
Sensors used for control have become widespread in water resources recovery facilities during the strive for resource efficient operations. However, their accuracy is reliant on uncertain laboratory measurements, which are used for calibration and, in turn, to correct for sensor drift. At the same time, current sensor calibration practices are lacking clear theoretical understanding of how measure
With two centuries of forestry, natural forests in boreal Sweden are rare and strongly fragmented. Hence, restoration aiming to improve conditions for forest biodiversity is needed. However, to ensure landscape connectivity – where to restore is a critical concern.Our study objective was to identify connectivity forest that through restoration support connectivity and biodiversity. The study area
