The purpose of the study is to examine how companies are applying employer branding in social media and how these activities affect potential employees’ engagement. Engagement on social media has been analyzed according to the cognitive, emotional and behavioral dimensions using a mixed method content analysis.
This Master Essay discusses the impact of the speed of transition on economic growth in transition countries after 1995. The existing literature reveals that output growth during transition is determined by measures for structural reforms, macroeconomic stability and initial conditions. Furthermore control variables are added. The research question is investigated with the help of a panel data ana
In 1973, the psychologist Tajfel proposed the Social Identity Theory which claimed that human behaviour is affected by the social relation of the people involved in a given situation, as documented by Burke (2006). The culture and language of Japan seem to embody the aspects of this theory as social relation is portrayed frequently, if not constantly, through the use of language. Academics such as
The phenomenon of migration is a highly debated topic in international politics, rising in importance on the global agenda. This can be seen in the securitisation of migration policies of the EU, who has sought to restrict migration and sharpen border controls since mid-70s. In this process Turkey is of vital importance, considered one of the main ‘bridges’ for transit migration into the EU. Thus,
In this study the efficiency of a pre-treatment method planned to treat wastewater produced at a waste treatment facility in Rönneholm (Skåne, Southern Sweden) was evaluated. At this waste treatment facility, operated by the publicly owned waste recycling company MERAB, a treatment is needed to lower concentrations of potentially environmentally detrimental contents in the wastewater to an extent
Bakgrund: Företag Green som är en svensk detaljhandelskedja har beslutat sig för att etablera ett centrallager. Enligt Abrahamsson et al. (2011) blir centrallager och distributionscenter allt vanligare bland företag inom detaljhandeln. I och med etableringen av centrallagret är Företag Green intresserade av att få djupare kunskap i hur en inköpsorganisation påverkas. Områden som de är intresserade
Diploid potato cultivars that are propagated by True Potato Seeds (TPS) are a new potentially revolutionary way of potato breeding. Conventional breeding is based on highly heterozygous tetraploid potato varieties. Diploid potato breeding by TPS is useful to create inbred lines and from there hybrid offspring. TPS is cheaper, has almost no diseases and is easy to distribute. Diploid potatoes have
Detection of Listeria monocytogenes by the microbiological standard method (ISO 11290-1) is time consuming and requires several days to get results, thus a more rapid detection method is required. The aim of this study is to continue the optimization of a rapid method that is based on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to detect L. monocytogenes in food matrices. The method is based on
Flow maldistribution in plate heat exchangers causes deterioration of both thermal and hydraulic performance. The situation becomes more complicated for two phase flows during condensation where uneven distribution of the liquid to the channels reduces heat transfer due to high liquid flooding. The present study evaluates the thermal performance of falling film plate condensers with flow maldistri
This study deals with the problem of Austrian identity in the late Habsburg empire. The investigation departs from an understanding of this problem as situated in the juncture between the historical Austrian imperial experience and the process of modern Austrian identity formation. The Austrian identity is thus approached as the identity problem of the old German-Austrian center of the empire, as
Popular Abstract in Swedish SVENSK POPULÄRVETENSKAPLIG SAMMANFATTNING (SUMMARY IN SWEDISH) Vi kommer dagligen i kontakt med kemiska ämnen av olika slag. Med till exempel mat och dryck, läkemedel, tobaksrökning och miljögifter får vi i oss ämnen som kan vara skadliga för oss. Vi är dock utrustade med ett ordentligt reningsverk, framför allt är det levern som ser till att farliga ämnen bryts ner ochCytochrome P450 (CYP) is involved in the metabolism of the majority of clinically used drugs. We have studied the CYP mediated metabolism of quinoline 3-carboxamides, a group of synthetic immunomodulators in liver microsomal preparations from various species. Roquinimex, the lead compound, was found to be metabolised by CYPs to hydroxylated and demethylated metabolites. A similar metabolite patter
Popular Abstract in Swedish Cellulosa och stärkelse är naturligt förekommande polysackarider, som är uppbyggda av långa rader av flera tusen sammanbundna glukosmolekyler. De är biologiskt nedbrytbara, billiga och dessutom förnyelsebara, och används mycket som råvaror i läkemedels-, livsmedels-, textil-, pappers- och byggnadsindustrin. För att cellulosa och stärkelse ska kunna användas industrelltCellulose and starch are non-toxic, biodegradable and modifiable polymers. These properties have made them increasingly important in industrial products e. g. in pharmaceutical applications and in technical dispersions. By chemical modification of these polymers the physical and chemical properties of the polymer can be adjusted to suit a certain area of application. The characteristics of modifie

Popular Abstract in Swedish I stort sett alla finrötter hos gran och många andra trädslag är koloniserade av ektomykorrhizasvampar (EM-svampar). Dessa lever i symbios med granen och utbyter mineralnäringsämnen mot sockerarter, som värdträdet bildat i fotosyntesen. EM-svamparna har visats överföra kalcium, kalium, kväve, magnesium och fosfor till sina värdträd. Den svenska skogen ingår i det boreaA method based on ingrowth mesh bags was developed to study the production of EMM. These bags were made of nylon mesh with a mesh size of 50 mu-m, which allows colonisation by fungal mycelia but excludes the tree roots. Using this method, the production of EMM was estimated in forest stands subjected to whole-tree harvesting (WTH) and in forest stands with different nutrient status regarding potas
Popular Abstract in Swedish I syfte att upprätthålla en optimal miljö för alla kroppens celler har högre stående djur utvecklat blodcirkulationen genom vilken syre- och andra närings ämnen transporteras till vävnader via artärer och de mindre arteriolerna, medan slaggprodukter förs bort med venerna. Utbytet av näringsämnen och slaggprodukter mellan blod och vävnad sker genom kärlväggen i kroppens Disturbances in microvascular function may be important for tissue damage in many disease states. Prostacyclin, a substance produced by endothelial cells, is important for the maintenance of normal vascular homeostasis and is a potential drug for treatment of microvascular dysfunction, but indications and optimal dosage remains to be established. In the present thesis we evaluated the capillary fi
