Denna uppsats handlade om antisocialt beteende kopplat till (upplevd) självförmåga (selfefficacy) och självkänsla (self-esteem). Syftet var att undersöka ifall det finns en korrelation mellan grad av antisocialt beteende och grad av självförmåga och självkänsla. Hypotesen är att ju högre grad av antisocialt beteende desto högre grad av självförmåga och lägre grad av självkänsla. Metoden som användThe purpose was to examine if there is a correlation between the level of antisocial behaviour and level of self-esteem and self-efficacy. The thesis was that the higher level of antisocial behaviour correlates with a higher level of self-efficacy, but a lower level of self-esteem. The method used was online survey, with a total of 111 participants between the ages of 18 and 30. The survey consist

Sprickbredder i armerade betongkonstruktioner bör begränsas med hänsyn till hållbarhet, täthet och estetik. Eftersom betong har en relativt låg draghållfasthet kan sprickor dock sällan undvikas, men kan med olika strategier minskas för att uppfylla de givna kraven. I betongkonstruktioner kan dragspänningar och följaktligen sprickor uppstå på grund av tvångsdeformationer, som kan uppstå på grund avThe need for limiting crack widths in reinforced concrete structures is due to durability, tightness towards gaseous and liquid substances, and for aesthetic reasons. Although concrete cracks at relatively low tensile stresses and can not be avoided, strategies for crack control can be adopted to meet the requirements. For certain structures, tensile stresses and consequently cracking may arise du

Privacy by Design is a methodology that enables privacy to be built into the design and architecture of information systems and business processes. Rather than bolting on protection at the end of a design process, care for privacy needs to be one of the foundational concerns of any implementation. Traditionally, privacy policies have been largely approached reactively, and only triggered once a br

Using data collected, a quantitative analysis was performed to measure the impact of six separate factors on post-merger performance anal

Syftet med denna uppsats är att ta reda på hur covid-19 utbrottet påverkat hotellrummens så kallade prispremie, det vill säga den supplementära kostnaden att boka ett återbetalningsbart hotellrum i förhållande till ett icke-återbetalningsbart hotellrum (mätt i procent). Vi kommer undersöka om covid-19 haft en större påverkan på prispremien i de länder som drabbats hårdast av covid-19 under våren 2

The main purpose of this thesis is to evaluate two current methods, Brokontrollen and TungTransport, used in Sweden for analysing heavy transport on existing bridges. It was investigated how the two methods compare, how bridge types affect the differences, if other variables impact the results and how, and if the methods can be improved. To answer these questions, first, a set of vehicles (which w

Currently, Blockchain Technology (BT) is still in the early stages of development. However, this technology has been used in some governments, organizations, companies, and research institutions. The novelty of BT led to the needs of an organization to understand what drives them to implement it. Besides understanding the drivers of implementing BT, it is also equally necessary to understand the c

Återbruka mera vitvaror! En undersökning av det som borde vara självklart enligt avfallshierarkin De resurser som finns på jorden utarmas mer och mer för varje dag som går. Hur vårt ekonomiska system är uppbyggt med att utarma resurser, producera, och till sist slänga våra produkter är i längden ohållbart. Det leder till stora mängder avfall och resursbrister som kan leda till att ekonomin på sik

Their task was to develop the interface that the clinicians will use to design the prosthesis. The idea is that patient and doctor sit together and decide what the prosthesis should look like using the int

Sveriges kommuner ställer idag allt högre krav under upphandling av teknisk utrustning till äldreomsorgen. Inom särskilt boende handlar dessa krav exempelvis om att vårdtagare alltid ska ha möjlighet att larma och positioneras, samt nya krav om falldetektion och pulsmätning. Tunstalls mobila trygghetslarm uppfyller idag de två första kraven och ämnar att inom en snar framtid även implementera fallDuring public procurement for elderly care in Sweden, higher demands on technological equipment are being introduced. Besides the regular demands for residential care that the elderly always should be able to alarm the caretakers and to always be positioned within the housing, new demands include fall detection and pulse measurement. Tunstall's mobile personal alarm meets the regular demands a

Integrated product development combines multiple disciplines (mechanics, engineering, informatics) in the development of complex products in corporations. In today’s economy, the development environment could be considered volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous, which prompts for experimentation, incremental product design and continuous engagement with the customer or end user.
