Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur redovisningskonsulten upplever förändringar i sin yrkesroll till följd av digitaliseringen, och vilken påverkan digitala instrument har på hur god redovisningssed efterföljs inom redovisningsbranschen. Vidare syftar studien till att undersöka hur intern kontroll av digitala instrument används för att legitimitet och tillförlitlighet i redovisningen uppnås.
This study’s purpose is to contribute to increased quality when measuring organizational wellness (OW) by exploring the potential of utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI). The concept of OW consists of several factors, for instance, safety, performance, and employee wellness. Measuring these factors too seldom may not generate profound and relevant data regarding the organization’s current state.
This report describes the research, conclusions, and result of my Master Degree thesis project in Industrial Design at Lund University. The thesis was completed during the spring semester of 2018. The work was carried out in collaboration with Trimble Geospatial in Danderyd, Sweden. The main purpose of this thesis was to explore the future methods of working with geospatial instruments - s
This thesis uses the humour theories of Michael Bachtin to analyse how meaning is constructed in internet memes, with a focus on the discourse created in online incel forums. The study focuses on iterations of the meme Virgin vs. Chad as an example of how masculinity is negotiated with the help of comedic expression. The dynamics of masculinity is understood through Raewyn Connell’s theoretical fr
Forskningsfråga: Hur förklarar konsumenter hanteringen av gapet mellan hållbarhetsattityd och beteende vid konsumtion av friluftskläder? Syfte: Studien syftar till att undersöka hur konsumenter förklarar och beskriver diskrepansen mellan hållbarhetsattityden och beteendet vid konsumtion av friluftskläder. Vidare belyses detta utifrån teoretiska ramverk gällande hantering av gapet för att tillförResearch question: How do consumers explain the management of the gap between the attitude towards sustainability and behavior when consuming outdoor clothing? Purpose: The study aims to investigate how consumers explain and describe the discrepancy between the attitude towards sustainability and the behaviour when consuming outdoor clothing. This will be elucidated with theoretical frameworks re
In surveillance contexts, radars can be used to monitor an area, detecting and tracking moving objects inside it. Monitored areas in urban environments often contain many surfaces that reflect radar waves, which can have the undesired consequence of a single object producing multiple tracks due to multipath propagation effects. This thesis considers a method of identifying if a track is produced b
In modern state-development it is common practice to use one language for unifying people in a nation or region. However, in the wake of decolonisation, many African states found themselves struggling with the decision to pick a national language. African languages are rarely dominating whole nations, making it hard to choose one language as a tool for unity. The kiSwahili language is therefore a
This essay is questioning the place for dialects in audiobooks on the Swedish market. What are the publishing houses views of casting dialect voices and how are these voices perceived by the audiobook listeners? The theory is built around voice perception in audiobooks, representation and dialects in film, including works from Matthew Rubery, Iben Have & Birgitte Stougaard Pedersen and Jane Ho
The attention to the environmental impact of plastics materials used in food packaging has produced several studies in the last decade and consumers have started wondering about the utility and the functions of food packaging. In fact, the use and the production of plastic polymers cause pollution due to the disposal and to the CO2 emission. Besides that, even if new polymers from organic and biol
This thesis seeks to explore an architectural typology that can enhance mental healing qualities in the urban structure. Our modern fast-paced lifestyle has a big impact on our mental well-being and our stress levels are constantly high, while our feelings are continuously exposed to different external factors. This minimizes our ability to understand and process them and to finally get through a
Antibiotic resistant bacteria are emerging worldwide and have endangered the effectiveness of antibiotics. This problematic development has accelerated infections with antibiotic resistant bacteria and to counter this, the World Health Organization (WHO) recently published a report listing twelve antibiotic resistant pathogens that required the most attention. One of those is Streptococcus pneumon
This work concerns the creasing and folding of a continuum paperboard material model developed by Eric Borgqvist. Creasing is an operation that induces permanent deformation in the material, undertaken for the folding to be performed along a straight fold line without any in-plane cracks. The material model concerned is complex and involves a high degree of anisotropy, and it has earlier been prov
Introduction: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive method which uses a combination of a strong magnetic field and radio frequency pulses to image magnetic difference between oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the human brain. This contrast differences can be used to identify areas in the brain when subjects performing an active task in the MRI scanner. It is also possibl
The Second Law of Thermodynamics is considered to be one of the most fundamental and important laws of Physics. Both Clausius and Kelvin reformulated the Second Law as statements concerning the behaviour of two communicating systems, set to interact at different temperatures. The average positive entropy production of any process, described by the Second Law, is often understood as a "thermod
Paralleling China’s increasing engagement in international development cooperation, Chinese development NGOs have expanded their projects abroad in recent years. Simultaneously, the government is encouraging NGOs to “go out” and foster “people-to-people connections” in countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). This thesis explored the internationalization of Chinese NGOs to un
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a highly heterogeneous childhood cancer where the presence of chemotherapy resistant cancer stem cells (CSCs) contributes to a high relapse rate in high-risk patients. Understanding the mechanisms by which CSCs contribute to therapy resistance could lead to future treatment strategies. The human pseudokinase TRIB3 has been shown to support stemness and play a role in cell cyc
Transposable elements (TE) are parasitic genetic entities that have the ability to alter their position within a genome and have the potential to influence its functionality. Although TEs play beneficial roles in the evolution of their host, they are active in various human disorders including neurological diseases, where may contribute to the progress of the disease. Long Interspersed Nuclear Ele
Due to a rising concern for the climate, more industries are becoming controversial due to their greenhouse gas intensive production. This study has looked into one of these industries, the agricultural industry in Denmark, and the controversy surrounding this industry. By adopting a critical discourse analysis (CDA) perspective, this study investigates the discursive construction of (de)legitimat
I Malmö byggs tidigare industriområden nu om till nya kvarter med bostäder, kontor, skolor och butiker – så kallad blandad stadsbebyggelse. Ett område som pekats ut för en liknande utveckling framöver är det fortfarande verksamma industriområdet Emilstorp. Vid det här projektets början hade jag aldrig varit i Emilstorp utan istället alltid promenerat eller cyklat runt det, utan att reflektera över
The aim of this essay is to analyze and compare three books’ children and adult editions, in an attempt to enable a discussion about the book publishing companies marketing strategies of the separate target audiences. The literature chosen is Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban, The Chronicles of Narnia (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and the collection book), and Insurgent, part two of
