Drawing on Charles Taylor’s modern social imaginary, this study offers a perspective for understanding how teachers are represented and characterized in American news media. Specifically, I study the way the social imaginary of teachers contributes to the performance of Arlie Russell Hochschild’s notion of emotional labor. I use this approach to analyze a case study of teacher representations in A
This thesis aims to analyse the effects on the Swedish economic growth as a result of growing carbon dioxide emissions during the period of 2017-2060. As being one of the Nordic countries, predicted to be one of the few least affected countries by global warming, Sweden will still most likely face the challenges of rising sea levels and more extreme weather events that will cause damages on infras
Det finns många exempel på att använda teknologi i skolan för att förbättra elevers lärande. En relativt oanvänd teknologi i utbildning är Virtual Reality. De flesta VR applikationer som används i utbildning idag är passiva virtuella studiebesök, där användaren interagerar med applikationen genom att observera den virtuella världen. Detta examensarbete undersöker om interaktiva Virtual Reality appThere are many examples of using technology in schools for enhancing student’s learning experience. A relatively unexplored technology in education is Virtual Reality. Most of the existing VR applications aimed at learning are passive virtual field trips, where the user only interacts with the application by observing the virtual world. This thesis explores if interactive Virtual Reality applicati
In northern Patagonia, macrolichens form species-rich and abundant epiphytic communities in southern beech forests. Five of the most abundant lichen species in the litter were selected in order to study mass loss rate and changes in mineral composition over time. The litter bag method was applied to the foliose lichens Pseudocyphellaria faveolata, Pseudocyphellaria flavicans, Nephroma antarcticum,

This study investigated attendance of treatment and follow-up characteristics in two samples of suicide attempters with different lengths of follow-up, that is after one month and after three months. They did not differ initially. After one month, most of the treatment non-attenders (32%) had not yet established an outpatient contact after inpatient treatment, while after three months, 38% of the
The article consists in a presentation of endovascular surgery for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair in 23 cases. Two cases required conversion to open surgery, but the procedure could be completed in the remaining 21 cases, with a current duration of follow-up of up to 30 months. There was early leakage in one case, and late leakage in five cases. Late conversion has been necessary in three instan
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) har under det senaste decenniet blivit ett allt mer relevant koncept. De flesta multinationella företag (Multinational Enterprises, MNEs) har formulerat uppförandekoder och många har också anslutit sig till internationella initiativ som fokuserar på CSR, som exempelvis Förenta Nationernas Global Compact. Genom globalisering, avreglering, paradigmskiften och inCorporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has during the last decade become an increasingly relevant concept. Most Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) have formulated Corporate Codes of Conduct, and many have also joined international initiatives focusing on CSR, such as the United Nations Global Compact. Through globalisation, deregulation, paradigm shifts and not least the development of information te
Popular Abstract in SwedishI avhandlingen undersöks adoptionsberättelser i en svensk kontext. Syftet är tvåfaldigt: För det första, hur adoption beskrivs av vuxna adopterade, för det andra, hur adoption konstrueras i dagspress. Adopterades sätt att skapa mening kring att ”vara adopterad” är i fokus, så är även dessa personliga berättelsers samspel med kulturellt gångbara diskurser på adoptionsområThis dissertation explores adoption stories in a Swedish context. The aim is two-fold: First, how adoption is presented by adopted adults; second, how adoption is constructed in the press. The way adoptees create meaning of “being adopted” is investigated; the way those stories are shaped culturally is also explored. The study was conducted in a qualitative tradition with a constructionist and nar
The nociceptive spinal reflex system performs highly precise sensorimotor transformations that require functionally specified synaptic strengths. The specification is gradually attained during early development and appears to be learning dependent. Here we determine the time course of this specification for heat-nociceptive tail withdrawal reflexes and analyze which types of primary afferents are

This thesis searches for the presence of seasonal anomalies in monthly returns on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. Three indexes are investigated, one small-cap-index OMXSSCPI, one large-firm-index OMXS30, and one index containing all stocks on the exchange OMXSPI. Econometric regressions and statistical methods are used in order to investigate. Subsample regressions are also used in order to examine
Sinusitis is a common disease caused by a virus or bacteria, with 84% to 91% of cases caused by a viral pathogen. However, physicians prescribe antibiotics for this disease in 85% of all cases. GPX Medical is a company working on the development of a medical device which, by means of absorption spectroscopy, can determine whether the disease is caused by virus or bacteria supporting, thus, the doc
