There are 3 factors that have a large impact on the motivation to help a victim. 1.) A higher willingness to help an identified, than a non-identified victim. 2.) A preference for saving a large percentage of a group at risk in comparison to only considering the total number of saved victims. 3.) A victim closer to the helpers in-group elicits a higher motivation to help. In previous studies only
Asylrätten är en het politisk fråga i och med den europeiska flyktingkrisen. Denna uppsats är ett försök att reda ut vilka folkrättsliga skyldigheter och EU-rättsliga som åligger Europeiska stater, och i synnerhet Sverige, på asylrättens område. Fyndet är att en allmän rätt till asyl inte existerar, men i praktiken finns något som kan liknas vid detta i och med förbudet mot att förvisa en flykting
Background: SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination has been associated with both side effects and a reduction in COVID-related complaints due to the decrease in COVID-19 incidence. We aimed to investigate if individuals who received three doses of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines had a lower incidence of (a) medical complaints and (b) COVID-19-related medical complaints, both as seen in primary care, when compared t
One of the most important travelers of the 18th century was Jakob JonasBjörnståhl. From a young age, he aspired to reach prominence in academiccircles. Greek, Latin, and various Middle Eastern languages were part ofhis studies from the outset, and he distinguished himself by his enthusiasm,thirst for knowledge, and ability to quickly master diverse subjects, alongwith his encyclopedic education.

Energy-intensive processing industries (EPIs) such as iron and steel, aluminum, chemicals, cement, glass, and paper and pulp are responsible for a large share of global greenhouse gas emissions. To meet 2050 emission targets, a transition to low carbon, often radical innovations is required, but this process is going slow. Insights from sociotechnical and innovation systems perspectives are therefEnergy-intensive processing industries (EPIs) such as iron and steel, aluminum, chemicals, cement, glass, and paper and pulp are responsible for a large share of global greenhouse gas emissions.

Popular Abstract in English News about global warming, discussions about alternative fuels such as natural-gas and biogas, and commercials about gas engines sound familiar to the most people living in modern societies. Why global warming is important? What is the role of natural-gas engines in this subject? Are natural-gas engines efficient? Do they perform as well as diesel engines? If not, why? Most heavy-duty engines are diesel operated. Severe emission regulations, high fuel prices, high technology costs (e.g. catalysts, fuel injection systems) and unsustainably in supplying fuel are enough reasons to convenience engine developers to explore alternative technologies or fuels. Using natural gas/biogas can be a very good alternative due to the attractive fuel properties regarding emissio
The stepwise stabililty constants, Kn for the bromo aqua complexes PtBrn−1(H2O)7−n5−n; n=4, 5, 6, formed in the successive acid hydrolyses of PtBr62−, have been determined to be K6=(.19±0.1) x 103 M−1, K5= (1.0±0.2) x 104 M−1 and K4=(1.1±0.2) x 105 M−1. A bromide assisted mechanism is proposed for the bromide anations of PtBr4(H2O)2 and PtBr5H2O-. Both these reactions are found to be first order wThe stepwise stabililty constants, Kn for the bromo aqua complexes PtBrn−1(H2O)7−n5−n; n=4, 5, 6, formed in the successive acid hydrolyses of PtBr62−, have been determined to be K6=(.19±0.1) x 103 M−1, K5= (1.0±0.2) x 104 M−1 and K4=(1.1±0.2) x 105 M−1.

A series of worldwide projects concerning assessment, student outcomes and quality in higher education has revealed the need for a change in how higher education institutions assess student outcomes; however, many academics remain unconvinced. The success of assessment change arguably depends on the assessment culture within the institution. This qualitative investigation of assessment cultures drA series of worldwide projects concerning assessment, student outcomes and quality in higher education has revealed the need for a change in how higher education institutions assess student outcomes; however, many academics remain unconvinced.

In this paper, locating myself in a tradition of critical race studies, I try to identify the problems I observe within the field of antisemitism studies. Departing from observations from the European Sociological Association conference held in Porto, Portugal, in August 2024, where leading antisemitism researchers in Europe stated that “antisemitism is at the core of Palestinian identity” and “po
The ongoing trade conflict has received much attention, and many politicians, as well as economists, wonder what the consequences will be. To shed some light on what the trade effects might be, we empirically analyse the trade effects of a very similar trade conflict. This paper examines the trade effects of the US safeguard of 2002 on Swedish steel exports. While the main focus of the analysis is
The purpose of this thesis is to explore antecedents of recommendation intention for the mobile payment system. The research design was cross-sectional, thus allowing to make associations and patterns. Further, structural equation modeling is used to analyze the relationships between the antecedents and intention formation. The thesis uses the theory of planned behavior as a guiding framework and
In recent years the gendered aspects of the 1951 refugee definition have been discussed within asylum law and amongst feminist theoreticians, claiming that women’s persecution grounds often aren’t defined legitimate within the definition. This thesis address the issue of women fleeing domestic violence; a persecution by a non-state actor. With a starting point in feminist theories critique of the
In the recent years, cryptocurrencies have gained popularity and have experienced high price volatility. This essay pretends to examine how the multivariate GARCH models predict the volatility of these digital currencies and what implications exist if we consider the correlations among them to forecast their volatility. Using a bivariate Diagonal VECH and bivariate Diagonal BEKK this thesis checks
This thesis investigates the impact of U.S. sanctions imposed between 2010 and 2012 on Iran’s non-oil exports. Using the Synthetic Control Method (SCM) as the baseline strategy, complemented by an Event Study and a standard Difference-in-Differences (DiD) model, the analysis shows that sanctions led to a sharp and persistent decline in Iran’s export performance relative to a counterfactual scenari
