This research seeks to explain the underlying motive and the practice of caring for the elderly parent from the vantage point of adult children that act as the main su
How do neighbourhoods affect life chances? This is a question that researchers have asked in different forms as early as the 50’s –and there is no shortage of papers exploring neighbourhood effects: how where we live affects our well-being or our participation in the labour market, our life expectancy or, in general, our life outcomes. Yet, there is less consensus than one would expect from a fiel
Purpose: In this study, the purpose is to explore how disruptive communication can be used as a means to overcome stigma. Methodology: This paper has analyzed four case studies in order to get a deeper understanding of the phenomenon stigma.

The axiom of transitivity states that if a person prefers option A to B and B to C, he must also prefer A to C. This simple axiom is often seen as one of the pillars of rational choice, but whether it should be has created a divide in the research community. Some state that there cannot be rational choice or utility without transitivity and that agents who present intransitive preferences allow th
In recent years, sustainability has become an increasingly important theme in financial markets, leading to the growth of green bonds and sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs). These instruments both fall under the umbrella of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) labeled bonds, though they differ in structure and how sustainability is integrated into the bond terms. It is clear that they have a
Photovoltaic (PV) technology will be a crucial part of shifting the energy sector towards more sustainable electricity production. However, conventional ground- mounted PV systems often compete for arable land, leading to land-use conflicts between the energy sector and the agricultural food sector. Agrivoltaics (APV), can bridge this conflict by integrating solar energy production with farming on
Foundation and Purpose: This research paper explores identity and sensemaking in the context of organizational change. The theoretical basis is anchored in the context of NPOs, studying the particular case of a trade union in Northern Europe embracing digital transformation. The study of this phenomenon is relevant as it explores a trade union’s efforts to remain current and to continue as a purpo

Sarah Waters is an acclaimed author of several bestselling and award-winning novels. The existing body of research on Sarah Waters’ novel The Little Stranger has been valuable and mostly engages with and suggests a correlation between class and the hauntings taking place at Hundreds Hall. Some scholarly research has also explored the unreliable narration of the novel by focusing on different theme
This study examines the potential overlap between fear of retaliation and moral disengagement as explanations for peer bystander inaction in school bullying. Although typically seen as distinct barriers to peer intervention, the study investigates whether fear of retaliation can function as a moral disengagement mechanism, and whether fear-based and disengagement-based justifications are empirical
This thesis was conducted to explore the capacity of West Slavic culture’s influence on that of early medieval Denmark from the 9-12th centuries through the examination of artifacts from both camps. Through the methodological observation of Danish and West Slavic material culture, their contexts and their connectivity between West Slavs and Danes, I apply assemblage and actor network theory (ANT)
This study investigates the effectiveness of an interactive module compared to an e-brochure designed to market a video analytics technology. The interactive module was developed using the same core content as the e-brochure, allowing for a direct comparison of format effects. The primary focus of the study is to evaluate how the interactive module impacts user engagement across cognitive, behavio
A gamma-charged particle coincidence spectroscopy setup was constructed, with the intended purpose of analysing future aerosol samples from the ESS. The setup consists of a Compex composite high purity germanium (HPGe) detector, with a bismuth-germanate oxide (BGO) anti-Compton shield (ACS), and a single-sided silicon strip detector (SSD). A 207Bi sample was used to evaluate the performance of the

A constant decline in fish stocks have been observed globally for the better part of the last century. In Sweden, the consequence of this decline has been the 9000 year old trade of small-scale fishing slowly disappearing. The extinction of these local fisheries have consequences for not only the fishers themselves, but for their communities and surrounding environment. The responsible factors for
