This thesis explores how large manufacturing companies in the Benelux region make sense of climate resilience and what they perceive as its key elements. Although ‘corporate climate resilience’ has gained increasing attention in academic and practitioner-oriented literature, the concept is characterised by ambiguity and fragmentation, resulting in inconsistent corporate interpretations and practic
Denna studie undersökte hur längden på videor på sociala medier och videornas innehållstyp influerade arbetsminne och inhibering. Totalt deltog 40 deltagare i åldern 20-44 år, vilka delades in i fyra grupper. Deltagarna fick se antingen en TikTok-spellista med ett flertal korta videor eller en längre YouTube-video, vilka innehöll informativt eller icke-informativt innehåll. Före och efter visningeThis study investigated how the length of social media videos and content type influenced working memory and inhibition. A total of 40 participants aged 20-44 years were assigned to four different groups. They watched either a TikTok playlist with several short-form videos or a longer YouTube video containing informative or non-informative content. Before and after the viewing session, the partici
A widely researched aspect of Aldous Huxley’s work is his later years’ advocacy for psychedelic drugs, in which he came to develop a strong psychological and philosophical interest. While the early novel Brave New World (1932) presented the fictional ‘perfect drug’ soma in dark, authoritarian tones, the autobiographical essay The Doors of Perception (1954) evaluated the experience of mescalin ther
American playwright Tony Kushner’s characters in Angels In America: Millenium Approaches (1992) and Angels In America: Perestroika (1994) are faced with the consequences of the HIV AIDS crisis in 1980s New York City and all attempt to escape from their physical or psychological reality to another. Previous analysis on these plays have focused on how broader societal issues affect the characters in
This thesis examines how Yumna Al-Arashi’s Aisha negotiates the tension between the potential for empowerment and the risk of exoticization in its photographic representation of tattooed women. Aisha is a photobook and artist’s book that combines portraits, landscapes, archival family photographs, and written fragments. It begins from the absence of Al-Arashi’s greatgrandmother’s facial tattoo in

Arbetstillfredsställelse är ett välstuderat begrepp inom arbets- och organisationspsykologi, däremot saknas forskning om detta inom orkestrar. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka till vilken grad gruppklimat och självledarskap predicerar arbetstillfredsställelse. Deltagarna bestod av 126 musiker från orkestrar runt om i Sverige. Data samlades in genom webbenkäter som skickades ut till deltaJob satisfaction is a well-studied concept within work and organizational psychology, however, there is a lack of research on this topic within orchestras. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which team climate and self-leadership predict job satisfaction. The participants consisted of 126 musicians from orchestras across Sweden. Data were collected through web based questionnai
Denna studie menade att undersöka ifall det går att förstå studenters beteenden i studierelaterade situationer utifrån expectancy-value teorin. Beteendena delades in i de fyra kategorierna: studier, andra konstruktiva beteenden, self-handicapping och prokrastinering. Metodiken i studien användes i syfte att spegla expectancy-value teorin där värderingen av en konsekvens samt förväntan att den konsThis study aimed to explore students' behaviours in relation to studies, based on the practical use of the expectancy-value theory. The behaviours were categorized into four different categories: studies, constructive behaviours, self-handicapping and procrastination. The methodology was designed to reflect the expectancy-value theory since the expected consequence of a certain behaviour and t
Studien syftade till att undersöka hur hudkvalitet påverkar upplevd attraktivitet, trovärdighet och expertis hos hudvårdsinfluencers samt hur dessa faktorer påverkar följares köpintention av hudvårdsprodukter. Studien utgick från halo-effekten och fokuserade särskilt på sambandet mellan hudkvalitet och sociala bedömningar av hudvårdsinfluencers. Två hypoteser formulerades: att influencers med bättThis study aimed to research how skin quality affects perceived attractivity, trustworthiness and expertise of a skincare influencer and how these factors affect followers' purchase intention of skincare. The study was based on the halo-effect and especially focused on the connection between skin quality and social assessments of skincare influencers. Two hypotheses were formed: that an influe
Hur kan ett övergivet järnvägsspår och stationsområde förändra Staffanstorps identitet? Historiskt sett var järnvägslinjen en viktig katalysator för stadens industriella tillväxt främst kring den lokala sockerfabriken. När passagerartrafiken och sockerindustrin upphörde förvandlades det långsträckta spårområdet till en fysisk och mental barriär. Staffanstorp är idag en expansiv pendlingsort med s
Energiåtervinning från avfall utgör en central del av det svenska fjärrvärmesystemet, men står inför stora utmaningar till följd av klimatmål och cirkulär omställning. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att analysera hur plastmängden som går till förbränning kan förändras fram till år 2045, och hur det i sin tur påverkar förutsättningar för energiåtervinning. Arbetet analyserar utmaningen på två niWaste-to-energy (WtE) is a cornerstone of the Swedish district heating system, yet it faces significant challenges due to climate targets and the transition towards a circular economy. The purpose of this thesis is to analyse how the amount of plastic directed to incineration may change up until the year 2045, and how this, in turn, affects the conditions for waste-to-energy. The study analyses t
Lunds kommun har som mål att minska bilberoendet och att vara klimatneutrala år 2030. Med bakgrund i detta, samt en strävan att alla boende i kommunen ska ha tillgång till samma service, finns en önskan från Lunds kommun att undersöka alternativa lösningar till dagens insamling av sällanavfall. Sällanavfall definieras i denna studie som avfall från hushåll som uppkommer mer sällan och vanligtvis sLund municipality aims to decrease the dependency of cars and to be climate neutral by 2030. With this in mind, together with an aspiration that all citizens in the municipality should have access to the same service, Lund municipality wishes to explore alternative solutions to the collection of “seldom waste” that exists today. Seldom waste is in this report defined as waste from households that
What would it mean for a building to never be finished? This thesis starts from that question. Looking at informal settlements, specifically the umkhukhu in South African townships , buildings there grow bit by bit, use whatever is available, get taken apart and rebuilt. There is no completion date. The thesis takes that seriously, not as something to fix, but as a way of thinking about what h
Protein therapeutics need to be formulated into an amorphous solid state to be stabilized, and this is efficiently done by spray drying together with a sugar matrix excipient. The characteristics of the produced powder are strongly dependent on process parameters, and therefore, spray drying offers the possibility of advanced particle engineering. In this thesis, trypsin was spray dried as a model
Introduction: Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful analytical technique for the identification of chemical compounds at low concentrations. Background: The presence of organic compounds at low concentrations that have not been previously identified in a sample may represent a significant risk to human health and safety. However, reliable identification remains challenging due t
The development of plant-based foods has increased interest in sustainable and natural protein-based emulsifiers that may partially replace conventional/synthetic emulsifying ingredients. Rapeseed press cake is an underutilized protein rich side stream from oil production with potential for valorization as a functional food ingredient. This study evaluated the emulsifying properties of protein fra
