As the lexicon cannot include all possible forms, at least not in such languages as Swedish, Russian and Georgian, some
The main premise of Self-Service Business Analytics (SSBA) is to make business employees autonomous during the data analytical process. To empower business employees, organizations are decentralizing their analytical capabilities through an SSBA approach. Yet, little is known about how employees integrate resources, such as, among others, personal competencies, environment resources including tech
Among the major IT security challenges facing organizations is non-malicious employee behavior that nevertheless poses significant threats to an organization's IT security. Using a grounded theory methodology, this paper finds that organizational security behaviors are inherently related to employee assumptions regarding the importance of IT security policy compliance and regarding the reason why

Millenarianism has been the subject of vast historical scholarship and debate, where emphasis is often placed on its political, social and cultural manifestations.

The glymphatic system is a waste clearance system in the brain that relies on the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in astrocyte-bound perivascular spaces and has been implicated in the clearance of neurotoxic peptides such as amyloid-beta. Impaired glymphatic function exacerbates disease pathology in animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's, which highlights the importance
What effect does a collision between two clusters have on their dissolving time? In order to answer this question, a new type of N-body simulation using a double integration of a cluster was built. Instead of introducing a perturbation representing the gravitational force of the Milky Way into a local simulation of the cluster, the cluster orbit was integrated in the potential of the Milky Way,
In 2019, the EU and Morocco implemented the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreement (SFPA). The agreement gives EU vessels right to fish not only in Moroccan waters, but also in waters adjacent to the occupied territory of Western Sahara. The SFPA followed on several rulings from the EU Courts, ruling previous trade agreements between the EU and Morocco illegal in their inclusion of the Wester
In the context of multinational corporations, subsidiaries became increasingly important for the organization as a whole over the last decades. Taking into account gaps found in the literature in the field of subsidiaries, the authors of this thesis aim to understand “how does individual intrapreneurship within a subsidiary impact the role of this subsidiary in an MNC context?”. In order to under
Studies show that collaboration between teachers and school librarians has a positive impact on students’ learning. However, the school librarian’s function and integration in the school’s educational activities can strongly vary. The librarian’s professional role has furthermore been a question for debate by both librarians and academics. Consequently, the role of the school librarian is indistin
The aim of this bachelor’s degree essay is to investigate and analyse Søren Kierkegaard as a theologian. Out of the traditional conception of Kierkegaard’s philosophy about the autonomous, free, capable and free to develop oneself, I ask the question – in what purpose do God need to incarnate in order to save humanity? To this question I ask three additional subqueries: according to Kierkegaard in
Unsustainability is persistent despite growing awareness that the industrial way of life, its modes of production and consumption need to be transformed. In academic sustainability contexts, however, attention is rarely paid to how industrial societies basically operate and how our everyday life is implicated beyond the usual suspect: consumerism. I argue that it is work, as central social relatio
This research seeks to contribute to the current gap between diplomatic theory and practice.

Firstly, to contribute to fill the vast gap between diplomatic theory and practice, and secondly, to in parallel pai
A lovely village, which located a little bit far from the city, but still has a convenient and good connection to the city center. There are no high-rises, and the form of life returns to the previously slow pace life which is full of human kindness. Canals appear everywhere and form a drainage system which can help purify the water before it goes into Dianchi Lake. It is a self-sufficient life mo

We do not find clear evidence of an idiosyncratic volatility puzzle on the three markets. Our models are inconclusive with a negative risk premium for the time series portfolio based regression model while the premium is positive in the panel data model. However, the parameter estimates are insignificant, therefore we accept the predictions of modern portfolio theories and conclude that idiosyncra
