Denna B-uppsats i Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, vid institutionen för kommunikation, Lunds Universitet, är skriven av Johanna Söderlund och Smilla Steinsvik. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur den amerikanska politiska rörelsen QAnon skapar politisk uppmärksamhet och tendensiös information med hjälp av internetfenomenet memes. Den valda bild som analyseras är en meme som jämför Donald
Liquid droplets sitting on nanowire (NW) tips constitute the starting point of the vapor-liquid-solid method of NW growth. Shape and volume of the droplet have been linked to a variety of growth phenomena ranging from the modification of growth direction, NW orientation, crystal phase, and even polarity. In this work we focus on numerical and theoretical analysis of the stability of liquid droplet
In this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to- machine communication in the Internet of Things. We focus on heterogeneous networks in which multiple applications co-exist and nodes may take on different roles for different applications. Moreover, we address network reIn this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to-machine communication in the Internet of Things.

Background: Older adults with pain have an increased risk of falling (odds ratio (OR) 1,7). Pain in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is more common than in older adults. The association between pain and falling in people with PD is poorly explored.Objective: To investigate the occurrence of pain in mild PD and its association with future falls/near fallsMethods.

The dominant image of judicial authority is emotional detachment; however, judicial work involves emotion. This presents a challenge for researchers to investigate emotions where they are disavowed. Two projects, one in Australia and another in Sweden, use multiple sociological research methods to study judicial experience, expression, and management of emotion. In both projects, observational res
In this study, we investigate how eco-social attitudes are interlinked with various modes of political action aimed at preventing environmental change and promoting social welfare. Using multiple correspondence analysis and cluster analysis, we explore the links between attitudes and political action, and associated socio-political characteristics, in the case of Sweden. Our results show a three-nIn this study, we investigate how eco-social attitudes are interlinked with various modes of political action aimed at preventing environmental change and promoting social welfare.

Background: The incidence of lower urinary tract infection (LUTI) in men visiting primary health care (PHC) is low. Hence, GPs do not diagnose and treat men with LUTI very often. Previous studies have shown that adherence to treatment guidelines regarding LUTI in men is low. There is limited knowledge concerning why guidelines are not adhered to.Aim: To gain knowledge on GPs’ experiences and conceBackground: The incidence of lower urinary tract infection (LUTI) in men visiting primary healthcare (PHC) is low.

The aim of this thesis is to describe and explain how meal-box, as a digital device designed to assist households in carrying out eating practices, reconfigure household practices and enable specific behavioural activities, including sustainability. Taking a socio-material and practice theory approach and drawing on an ethnographic study of three meal-box providers – The Seasons, Hello Fresh and L
Greening projects are becoming increasingly popular as part of urban transitions towards sustainable cities. Many academic studies have shown that under certain conditions these projects do not address or even execrate existing socio-spatial inequalities. This research attempts to explore the narrative on UGI and environmental justice in academic literature and in the practitioner narrative at mun
Popular Abstract in German Einführung in die Astrometrie Ziele Astrometrie ist das Forschungsfeld der Astronomie, das sich mit der Vermessung der Positionen von Sternen und anderen Himmelskörpern beschäftigt. Das klingt zunächst vielleicht trivial, aber die unglaublich großen Entfernungen machen astrometrische Messungen äußerst schwierig. Eins der Ziele ist es, eine dreidimensionale Karte der SteAstrometry aims at producing a three-dimensional map of positions and motions of stars and other celestial bodies in a consistent coordinate system covering the whole sky. This is best done from space, which provides a way of scanning the entire sky by a single instrument in a thermally stable environment. Space astrometry was pioneered by the Hipparcos satellite (1989–1993), and the successor mis
The fact that Sweden has been spared from war on its soil for almost 200 years, has not stopped Swedish citizens from participating in conflicts worldwide during this period. This has been described, especially from the soldiers perspective. The contribution of Swedish physicians has not been written about to the same extent. When Mussolini's Italy in October 1935 invaded the poor and underdevelop
Background:Traditional primary care is characterized by patient consultations via phone and physical visits. However, the current development in Swedish primary care is to blend digital solutions with traditional solutions. This paper addresses this development by examining the normalization of embedding and integrating a digital health care platform into everyday care routines in a primary care cBackground:Traditional primary care is characterized by patient consultations via phone and physical visits.

Based on repeated surveys of the vascular plant flora in 120 hectar plots in the province of Scania, southern-most Sweden, and analyses based on species-specific traits and ecological indicator values, it is concluded that significant changes have taken place 2018–2020 but that they probably mostly reflect the effects of the extremely dry and hot summer of 2018.

The COVID-19 pandemic is classified as an infodemic with the circulation of vast amounts of true and untrue information, especially through social media. The study’s aim was to explore different articulations of people’s understanding, handling and evaluation of (true) information, misinformation and disinformation in general and specifically linked to social media related to the COVID-19 pandemicThe COVID-19 pandemic is classified as an infodemic with the circulation of vast amounts of true and untrue information, especially through social media.

There is a lack of objective evaluative standards for academic work. While this has been recognized in studies of how gatekeepers pass judgment on the works of others, little is known about how scholars deal with the uncertainty about how their work will be evaluated by gatekeepers. Building upon 35 interviews with early career academics in political science and history, this paper explores how ju
