Public oversight depends not only on public documents, but on traceable relations between them. This bachelor thesis examines how selected UKÄ legal-supervision findings and subsequent public governance documents produce different levels of public follow-up visibility. It asks what distinguishes cases where an oversight report makes expected action visible from cases where later public documents p

This study examines how part-time work is discursively constructed and contested in the German political debate following the CDU's proposal to limit the right to part-time work in January 2026. Situated in the context of demographic change and labour shortages, the proposal frames part-time employment primarily as an economic burden – a framing that raises questions about how economic product

Environmental non governmental organizations play an influential role as developers of policy regarding climate change, communicators of climate change and environmental science as well as opinion makers among the population. This happens to a great extent on the social media Facebook. How NGOs frame climate change and environmental issues on Facebook is therefore important to investigate and thi

Growing concerns around resource depletion and climate change has made freshwater scarcity an increasingly urgent issue for cities around the world. In Cape Town, this became especially visible during the 2018 Day Zero crisis, when the City of Cape Town faced the possibility of its municipal water supply systems reaching a critical failure point. This thesis examines how freshwater scarcity in Cap

This thesis asks how the application of financial materiality within the European Sustainability Reporting Standards’ (ESRS) Double Materiality Assessment is characterised when applied to a non-profit European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC). It pursues this question through a reflexive single-case study of the European Spallation Source (ESS), conducted in parallel with an impact-materi

Seminar Date: 2026-06-04 Course: BUSN79, Degree Project in Accounting and Finance Authors: Victor Damberg, Jonatan Svanbom Advisor/Examiner: Diem Nguyen & Reda Moursli Five key words: CDS Spreads, Leverage, Asset Tangibility, Financial Distress Risk, Redeployability Purpose: To investigate whether asset tangibility weakens the positive association between leverage and market-implied

Wanting to help others and benefit society in one’s future career are examples of communal career goals. Raising these goals in youth should increase interest in HEED-occupations (Healthcare, Early Education, Domestic, and the Domestic fields) which are strongly gender-skewed and face labor shortage. Research has yet to find ways to increase communal career goals. In this study, we test the novel Wanting to help others and benefit society in one’s future career are examples of communal career goals.

Background: The base of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (BOTSCC) is mainly an HPV-related tumor. Radiotherapy (EBRT) ± concomitant chemotherapy (CT) is the backbone of the curatively intended treatment, with brachytherapy (BT) boost as an option. With four different treatment strategies in Sweden, a retrospective study based on the population-based Swedish Head and Neck Cancer Register (SweHNCR) wa

The data collected in this dataset are narratives exploring public policies, attitudes, individual behaviors, and the collective experiences of the involved communities regarding vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic. The narratives were written by the members of the interdisciplinary research network Navigating Knowledge Landscapes (NKL; http://knowledge-landscapes.hiim.hr/). The members of th

A central goal in ecology is to predict what governs a species’ ability to establish in a new environment. One mechanism driving establishment success is individual species’ traits, but the role of trait combinations among interacting species across different trophic levels is less clear. Deliberate or accidental species additions to existing communities provide opportunities to study larger scale

Using electronic health records data and machine learning to guide future decisions needs to address challenges, including 1) long/short-term dependencies and 2) interactions between diseases and interventions. Bidirectional transformers have effectively addressed the first challenge. Here we tackled the latter challenge by masking one source (e.g., ICD10 codes) and training the transformer to pre

The argument running through Sevilla-Buitrago’s analysis is that spatial planning as a form of expertise cannot be untethered from capitalist urbanization, but that planning also must be related to urban commons, conceptualized as the actually existing self-management of resources in opposition to capital. The book’s four case studies are used all in an argument contending that planning must ‘neutThe argument running through Sevilla-Buitrago’s analysis is that spatial planning as a form of expertise cannot be untethered from capitalist urbanization, but that planning also must be related to urban commons, conceptualized as the actually existing self-management of resources in opposition to capital.

To examine whether the level of genetic risk in psychiatric disorders impacts the social functioning of affected individuals, we examine the relationship between genetic risk factors for major depression (MD), anxiety disorders (AD), bipolar disorder (BD), non-affective psychosis (NAP), alcohol use disorder (AUD), and drug use disorder (DUD) in disordered individuals and five adverse social outcom

Background: Compared to negative experiences and ill health, little attention has been paidto positive experiences connected to being transgender and gender diverse (TGD).Aim: The aim of the current study was to explore TGD people’s positive experiences in depth.Methods: In total, 33 TGD people were interviewed. Transcripts were analyzed using reflexivethematic analysis.Results: Results show that

This study provides a cross-platform, longitudinal investigation of pictures depicting political candidates posted to Facebook and Instagram over a 15-month period during the 2020 US election(n = 4,977). After motivating an exploratory research design, we set out to expound: the extent of cross-platform image posting across Facebook and Instagram; the emotion expression of politicians across the t

In accordance with India's sustainable energy targets of achieving 175 GW of renewable energy (RE) installed capacity by 2022 and 450 GW by 2030, the role of private sector actors has become increasingly important. As presently, 96 percent of the total installed RE utilities in India are privately owned; this makes sustainability driven entrepreneurship the core of India's energy sector transition

Background and Objective: The recent multi-country outbreak of human monkeypox (HMPX) in non-endemic regions poses an emerging public health concern. University students in health schools/faculties represent a core knowledgeable group that can be helpful to study from a public health point of view. As future healthcare workers, assessment of their knowledge and attitude towards emerging zoonotic v
