Understanding individual risk taking is an important topic in Africa, as access to financial institutions and social security is scarce, and where markets and government policies largely fail to understand investment decisions of poor households. Data on risk attitudes in Africa is limited and the available data collected might not be reliable.

Random graph theory is an important tool to study different problems arising from real world.In this thesis we study how to model connections between neurons (nodes) and synaptic con-nections (edges) in the brain using inhomogeneous random distance graph models. We presentfour models which have in common the characteristic of having a probability of connectionsbetween the nodes dependent on the diRandom graph theory is an important tool to study different problems arising from real world.In this thesis we study how to model connections between neurons (nodes) and synaptic connections (edges) in the brain using inhomogeneous random distance graph models.

The behavior of animals is commonly studied in medicine and biology. There is a large variation in what animals are studied, in experimental paradigms and purpose.However, many studies on animal behavior have at least one thing in common - it typically involves measuring or studying the kinematics of the animal. To allow for verifiable and quantitative behavioral analysis, the experiments are recoThe behavior of animals is commonly studied in medicine and biology.

In recent years, business process management (BPM) is a vital methodology or strategy to drive business management agilely. It is an approach that can make the organization achieve effectiveness and efficiencies through creating and ameliorating its business processes according to its business strategies, objectives, and requirements. There is no doubt that dynamic and flexible business processes

In order to provide security and stability for international investors states conclude international investment agreements. International investment agreements guarantee foreign investors specific standards of treatment by the host state within the territory of the state. One standard which usually is included in international investment agreements is the fair and equitable treatment. To create st

Seaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries. In the EU, the motivations for seaweed farming may be seen from two perspectives; one being economic growth through biomass production and the other being the provisioning of ecosystem services such as mitigating eutrophication. In this paper, we assess the economic potenSeaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries.

Internationally, Sociology of Law is most often located in centers of various kinds, as subjects or networks within faculties or as one or a couple of people within faculties. Sociology of Law and Law and Society research is thus spread around the world in many kinds of formations and there are several networks coordinating the field thematically and geographically. These two fields attract a highThe overarching aim of this report is to use it in our future and continued development work at our Sociology of Law Department, Faculty of Social Sciences, Lund University. Another aim is also to keep it in a book for historical reasons: important documents and specific data have a well-known tendency to disappear, after some time.Internationally, Sociology of Law is most often located in centers

Using transition metals in organic synthesis has led to the discovery of new reactions. These novel reactions have enabled different valuable transformations to take place through short synthetic routes and most importantly using a small amount of the metal. This small amount is called a catalytic amount and the metal which is in the form of a complex (with an array of groups of atoms bonded to thNew palladium and nickel complexes based on unsymmetric PCN pincer ligands have been synthesized and fully characterized using different techniques. The substituents on the nitrogen side arm of the ligand have great influence on the cyclometallation and the reactivity of the new complexes particularly in case of nickel. The less sterically hindered PCNMe ligand enabled formation of the trivalent n

This thesis analyses police officers' work with internal control of foreigners through a discussion of, among other things, the nation-state, rule of law ideals as well as the police profession and the conditions surrounding that profession. Internal control of foreigners, practised by police officers has two main aims: to control migration and to fight crime amongst people unauthorised to reside

Previous research has acknowledged the effect of prosody on inter-gestural coordination, but specifically the effect of tones is still understudied. This paper has a two-fold purpose. First, it aims to explore effects of the Swedish word accents on word-initial consonant–vowel (CV) coarticulation. Second, it aims to revisit the existing evidence for tonal integration. Based on Articulatory Phonolo

MI, motivational interviewing, is a counseling method for increasing a person's motivation for behavior change with a large prevalence in social work. MI emphasizes building trusting social worker-client relationships and is presented as concrete and simple to follow. MI's benefit is limited by actual opportunities for change through poverty, the labor market and health.

The adsorption of proteins is a very common phenomenon, happening almost always when a protein solution comes into contact with a solid. However, it is far from always clear what the results of adsorption will be in terms of adsorbed amount, protein orientation, and protein conformation. In this work, the adsorption of two proteins – histatin 5 and fibrinogen – has been studied using coarse-graineThe adsorption of proteins is a very common phenomenon, happening almost always when a protein solution comes into contact with a solid.

Purpose: The purpose is to improve the understanding of the process of applying blockchain technology in the financial services industry through information published by the most representative companies and institutions in the global landscape. Methodology: Qualitative research has been conducted through secondary data, which has been analyzed by employing thematic analysis. Theoretical perspec

In this case study the author first investigates how environmental and social considerations are being implemented in the Swedish public procurement process. After that the author tries to explain these descriptions using theories on public policy implementation. A distinction is made to the food procurement process in Sweden’s three largest primary municipalities. Through the study of local polic
