Through panel data analysis the relationship between Chinese FDI, non-Chinese FDI, and government debt in Sub-Saharan Africa is investigated. The model is expanded to include resource endowment and political stability variables. This is contextualized with the narrative of debt-trap diplomacy. This controversial notion is relatively well

Syfte: Studiens syfte var att bidra med information om sommarlovets påverkan på den svenska muntliga narrativa förmågan hos flerspråkiga skolbarn. Metod: Inspelningar av 74 flerspråkiga skolbarns muntliga narrativer till MAIN:s sekvensbilder utförda precis före sommarlovet och precis efter sommarlovet transkriberades och bedömdes på mikro- och makronivå. De mikromått som undersöktes var MLU, gramPurpose: The aim of this study was to contribute further information regarding the effect of the summer holiday on narrative ability in bilingual children. Method: Audio recordings of oral narratives from 74 bilingual children of two sequential picture series of MAIN were administered and recorded before and after the summer holidays. The oral narratives in Swedish were transcribed and analysed on

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka möjligheter och hinder som personal på barn- och ungdomshabiliteringen upplever gällande att ställa frågor om sexuella övergrepp. Detta undersöktes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med åtta deltagare från sex olika enheter inom barn- och ungdomshabiliteringen i Region Skåne. Data analyserades med tematisk analys och resulterade i fyra olika teman: “UppdrThe aim of the study was to explore the possibilities and obstacles that staff at the Child and Youth Habilitation Services experience in asking their patients about sexual abuse. This was done by conducting semi-structured interviews with eight participants from different units within the Child and Youth Habilitation Services at Region Skåne. The data was analysed using thematic analysis and resu

It is amidst the digital saturation of life, globalised interconnections, and accelerated global AI market growth that we are witnessing today that new complexities and challenges emerge in strategically navigating these environments. This thesis explores the emerging dynamics of strategy and Big Data and Artificial Intelligence through a qualitative research design employing semi-structured exper

Giant cell arteritis is a disease the affects the arteries, for example the temporal artery. When affecting the temporal artery, it can cause serious consequences such as blindness and stroke. The existing methods for diagnosing the disease are invasive, time consuming and costly. Ultrasound would therefore be an attractive diagnostic alternative providing a lot of benefits. Information about the

Förmågan att återskapa förvrängda bilder på ett effektivt sätt har länge varit ett mål inom datorgrafik och bildanalys. I vårt examensarbete, i samarbete med NVIDIA, har vi tittat på ett nytt tillvägagångsätt för detta problem inom maskininlärning och jämfört detta med redan existerande metoder.Loss functions are a crucial part of image processing when using modern neural networks, trained with stochastic gradient descent. There exist multiple loss functions today, some claiming to be perceptual. Researchers at NVIDIA recently published a proposal of such a metric called FLIP. This led to our work on this thesis where we present a comparison between multiple loss functions, both establis

In-band full-duplex has emerged as an attractive solution for significantly enhancing the throughput of wireless communication systems by doubling the spectrum efficiency compared to conventional half-duplex systems. However, the existence of self-interference is a significant barrier to operate full-duplex systems. In order to cancel the self-interference by analog and digital solutions, time syn

This thesis is a case study which investigates political parties’ reasons and driving forces for advocating an expansion of E6 in Skåne with respect to the fact that the highway today has reached its full capacity. The two biggest parties in the region, the Social Democratic Party and the Moderate Party, have been included in the research. The arguments stated by each party, revealed through semi-

Uppsatsen undersöker möjligheten att registrera ordmärken och analyserar i synnerhet vilka ordmärken som kan registreras med endast ursprunglig särskiljningsförmåga och vilka ordmärken som kräver förvärvad särskiljningsförmåga för att få registreras. Uppsatsen klarlägger därutöver hur möjligheten att förvärva särskiljningsförmåga förhåller sig frihållningsbehovet. Av praxis framgår att suggestiva This thesis examines the possibility of registering trademarks and it in particular analyzes which trademarks can be registered with only original distinctive character and which trademarks require acquired distinctive character in order to be registered. In addition, the thesis examines how the possibility of acquiring distinctive character relates to the requirement of availability. It is eviden

The aim of this thesis is to discover how ideals about women’s workers’ identity regarding to bildning (workers’ education), class and organization are produced and constructed within the Swedish socialist journal Morgonbris (i.e. Morning Breeze) 1904–1916.

Designed as a case study, this thesis sheds light on women’s narratives about their experiences as home-based seamstresses working in the informal sector in Hanoi. It examines the ways in which social reproduction (SR) intersects with productive activities through the integration of paid work into the domestic space. It brings literature on informality and home-based work into conversation with fe

Det har i EU införts ett direktiv som ska skydda personer som rapporterar om överträdelser av unionsrätten, visselblåsardirektivet. Därmed var Sverige tvungen att införa en ny visselblåsarlag, som gäller parallellt med annan lagstiftning som kan ge skydd åt en visselblåsare. Uppsatsen syftar till att analysera den nya visselblåsarlagen och hur den samspelar med annan svensk rätt och Europarätt på A new EU Directive was adopted in order to protect persons who report breaches of the Union law, the Whistleblowing Directive. Consequently, Sweden had to adopt a new whistleblowing legislation, that applies in parallel with other legislation that can provide protection for whisteblowers. The thesis aims to analyse the new Swedish whistleblowing legislation and how it interacts with other Swedish

The field of change management is continuously developing and is an important subject for organizations worldwide.
