Forskningsfråga: Vad har aktörer i en koordinerad marknadsekonomi för syn på revisionsplikten och hur ser sambandet ut mellan synen och deras förtroende för revisorskåren? Syfte: Syftet är att studera aktörers inställning till revisionsplikten för små aktiebolag i KME:n Sverige och undersöka det eventuella sambandet mellan inställningen och förtroende. Metod: Uppsatsen är en fallstudie av SverigResearch question: What view do the actors in a coordinated market economy have of audit obligation and how is it related to their trust in the audit profession? Purpose: The purpose is to study actors' attitudes to the audit obligation for small companies in the KME Sweden, and to examine the possible connection between the attitude and trust. Methodology: The essay is a case study of Swede

?SEPARATE WORLDS?. School librarians teaching in information seeking in high school. The aim of this Master's thesis is to study how information seeking is taught in high school and how school librarians describe their experiences of teaching information seeking. Five school librarians from five different high schools (gymnasium) in Skåne participated in the study. The empirical data derives

This thesis investigates the process of innovation in environmental technology and the role that government interventions can play in fostering this innovation, using a cross-sectoral perspective based on three Nordic sectors - mobile phones, pulp and paper, and buildings. Using an analytical framework based on innovation and environmental policy and their interactions with three preconditions for

I have made an inquiry about stage communication, small talk and on-stage rhetoric. The essay is divided into different parts. There is a background part that gives a short overview about other research and literature that has been made on the subject. A background has been put together to help you as a reader to understand the complex science can be. Here you will find work written by Dorothy Irv

In the modern business environment, there is growing number of companies placing weight on sustainability-related issues, such as waste management, local communities, use of resources etc. At the same time such stakeholders as investors, consumers, employees and communities are increasingly interested in understanding company’s efforts and progresses in the area of sustainability. With that respec

Author: Ebba Hedström Title: ”You feel useful” – A studie about counsellers work in the school for children with intellectual disabilities [translated title] This study concerns the councellors work with children in special programs for pupils with intellectual disabilities. The purpose was to se how counceller work with the children in special programs for pupils with intellectual disibilities.

Transgender people report significantly poorer mental health than cisgender people. In psychological research, these health disparities are explained by theories of minority stress and microaggressions, while other disciplines use theories on normativity, livability, affective work, world making and utopias. Such theories are seldom picked up by psychologists even though they could serve to help p

Vanuatu is one of the most hazard prone nations in the world and frequently tops the World Risk Report as the nation with the highest overall disaster risk. The devastation wrought by category 5 cyclone Pam (2015), the El Niño drought (2015/16), and volcanic eruptions in Ambae (2018), are but a few recent examples of disasters which have disrupted livelihoods and curtailed development. The Vanuatu

The boreal biome plays an important role in the global carbon cycle. However, current estimates of its sink-source strength and responses to changes in climate are primarily derived from models and thus remain uncertain. A major challenge is the validation of these models at a regional scale since empirical flux estimates are typically confined to ecosystem or continental scales. The Integrated Ca

Thousands of species migrate [1]. Though we have some understanding of where and when they travel, we still have very little insight into who migrates with whom and for how long. Group formation is pivotal in allowing individuals to interact, transfer information, and adapt to changing conditions [2]. Yet it is remarkably difficult to infer group membership in migrating animals without being able

OBJECTIVE - Ketosis-prone diabetes (KPD) comprises four subgroups based on the presence or absence of β-cell autoantibodies (A+ or A-) and β-cell functional reserve (β + or β-). Genetic factors could contribute to their distinctive phenotypes. Our aim was to specify the role of HLA class II alleles associated with susceptibility or resistance to autoimmune type 1 diabetes in determining KPD phenot

Human milk provides a very wide range of nutrients and bioactive components, including immune factors, human milk oligosaccharides, and a commensal microbiota. These factors are essential for interconnected processes including immunity programming and the development of a normal infant gastrointestinal microbiome. Newborn immune protection mostly relies on maternal immune factors provided through

Introduction: Currently the most serious treatment complication of haemophilia is the inhibitor development (ID), i.e. neutralizing antibody development. Aim: This nationwide multicentre study in Finland evaluated the incidence and risk factors of ID in previously untreated patients (PUPs) with severe haemophilia A (FVIII:C < 0.01 IU mL−1). Methods: We enrolled all PUPs (N = 62) born between June

Data assimilation methods provide a rigorous statistical framework for constraining parametric uncertainty in land surface models (LSMs), which in turn helps to improve their predictive capability and to identify areas in which the representation of physical processes is inadequate. The increase in the number of available datasets in recent years allows us to address different aspects of the model

Over the past century an ongoing establishment of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), sometimes at accelerating rates, is noted at three studied Lithuanian peat bogs, namely Kerėplis, Rėkyva and Aukštumala, all representing different degrees of tree coverage and geographic settings. Present establishment rates seem to depend on tree density on the bog surface and are most significant at sparsely cov

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Familial risks in liver and biliary cancers have been assessed in small case control studies, usually based on reported, but not medically verified, cancers in family members. Thus the degree of familial clustering for these cancers remains to be established.METHODS: The nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database was used, covering 10.2 million individuals for the years 1961-19

There is a need for research to identify effective implementation strategies for injury prevention training within real-world community sports. The aim of this ecological participatory study was to identify facilitators, among stakeholders at multiple levels, that could help injury prevention training become part of regular training routines in youth team handball. Concept mapping, a mixed-method

Background: Borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) are a subgroup of ovarian malignancies with low malignant potential. Very limited earlier data are available on familial clustering of BOTs with other cancers. We aim to explore histology-specific familial associations among BOTs and associations between BOTs and any invasive cancers.Methods: On the basis of 16.1 million individuals in the Swedish Famil

Notch signalling occurs via direct cell-cell interactions and plays an important role in linking the fates of neighbouring cells. There are four different mammalian Notch receptors that can be activated by five cell surface ligands. The ability to inhibit specific Notch receptors would help identify the roles of individual family members and potentially provide a means to study and control cell di

Background Sex-differences in the pathobiology of myocardial infarction are well established but incompletely understood. Improved knowledge on this topic may help clinicians to improve management of men and women with myocardial infarction. Methods In this registry-based cohort study (SWEDEHEART), we analyzed 175 circulating biomarkers reflecting various pathobiological axes in 856 men and 243 wo
