A recent body of empirical studies has given us a reason to expect that an influx of low-skilled workers can increase high skilled female market labour supply. Most of these studies, however, have focused on developed countries and on investigating the impact as it pertains to immigration. Believing that this same effect might hold in the case of internal migration, in this study, I employ a shift-s
In this essay, I make a landscape archaeological analysis of the parishes of Reslöv and Östra Karaby. By studying both the visible and the hidden cultural landscape, with a focus on the Middle Ages, I identify different structures in the landscape. The starting point is the registered monuments that are documented in the Cultural Environment Register at The Swedish National Heritage Board. By loca
This essay studies the relationship between institutional transparency and political trust. The study focuses on 27 countries in Europe. The existing theory regarding the relationship emphasizes different views. Some theorists claim that the two concepts are positively correlated whilst others claim the opposite. Hence, the study’s purpose: to test which of the theorists predict the correct outcom
Through Bonnie M. Meguid’s theory on Position, Salience and Ownership, I analyse the two Swedish government parties Folkpartiets and Moderaternas strategic approaches towards the populist radical right party Sverigedemokraterna. The period that I analyse is 2006-2012 and the focus is on the parliament level. I use qualitative text analysis as method and concentrate on material like polical program
This thesis examines the gender language in resolutions from the UN Security- Council and reports from the Secretary-General in order to determine if there is a correlation between the two. The objective of the thesis is to highlight Security Council resolution 1325 on women, peace and security and its implementation within peacekeeping missions in order to contribute to advocacy for greater inclu
Popular Abstract in English This thesis is a collection of three independent but closely related studies. The focus is on the potential causes of skill mismatch, the extent of skill mismatch, the socio-demographic make-up of skill mismatch, and the consequences of skill mismatch in terms of earnings as well as employer sponsored adult education/training.

Background: Invasive infections with non-beta-haemolytic streptococci (NBHS) is quite common and presents the clinicians with difficulties regarding which patients are at risk for infective endocarditis (IE). The HANDOC score was developed to identify patients with NBHS bacteraemia who are at low risk of IE. This study was conducted to validate HANDOC in an external cohort.Methods: Patients with NBackground: Invasive infections with non-beta-haemolytic streptococci (NBHS) is quite common and presents the clinicians with difficulties regarding which patients are at risk for infective endocarditis (IE).

Carbonyl exchange between [MX3(13CO)]–(MX = PdCl, PtCl or PtBr) and 12CO has been studied by IR and 13C NMR spectroscopies as a function of temperature. The exchange is first-order in both CO and complex concentration, and the activation entropies are negative, suggesting an associative reaction mechanism. There is a small solvent effect, but no chloride dependence.

Following financialization, there has emerged an understanding of what it implies to be a shareholder based on the shareholder value perception. However, as this shareholder value perception spreads internationally, it clashes with traditional perceptions.

High EGR rates combined with turbocharging has been identified as a promising way to increase the maximum load and efficiency of heavy duty spark ignition engines. With stoichiometric conditions a three way catalyst can be used which means that regulated emissions can be kept at very low levels. Obtaining reliable spark ignition is difficult however with high pressure and dilution.

The invention of computers revolutionized the way of doing science and in particular the field of mathematics. Computers were faster than any human mind in doing calculations and they did not make mistakes opening a wide range of possibilities that earlier where in practice uncomputable. Scientists observe the behavior of nature and find mathematical equations that model the different phenomena. IThe efficient simulation of thermal interaction between fluids and structures is crucial in the design of many industrial products, e.g. turbine blades or rocket nozzles. The main goal of this work is to present a high order time adaptive multirate parallel partitioned coupled method for the efficient numerical solution of two parabolic problems with strong jumps in the material coefficients that

This paper explores the potential of corpus data to account for language users’ mental representations of a high-frequency item that is prone to phonetic reduction. We present an analysis of the realisations of semi-modal have to in spoken American English, which is a candidate for to-contraction (compare wanna and gotta) but has no clearly established contracted form. The study therefore focusses
Type 2 diabetes is one of the world’s major challenges today. Over 400 million people around the globe are diagnosed with diabetes and the consequences to the individual patient and health care systems are significant. Diabetes is a chronic disease and the standard treatment including lifestyle changes, metformin and insulin is in many cases not effective enough. New anti-diabetic drugs have been Type 2 diabetes is one of the world’s major challenges today.

The extent of vegetation openness in past European landscapes is widely debated. In particular, the temperate forest biome has traditionally been defined as dense, closed-canopy forest; however, some argue that large herbivores maintained greater openness or even wood-pasture conditions. Here, we address this question for the Last Interglacial period (129,000–116,000 years ago), before Homo sapien

The present quantitative research focuses on studying the effect of uncertainty in online information search related mainly to travel planning. The main emphasis is in the individual and combined effect of these variables towards different demographic segments of international travelers. In order to do so it draws insights from Uncertainty avoidance (Hofstede, 2001) and information foraging theory
