“What happens to everything you excavate?” is a question most archaeologists will be asked. The answer, generally, is “Storage in museum collections”. Archaeological excavations, commercial, academic and otherwise, generate vast quantities of finds. Almost all are stored as collections, or object archives, maintained by museums. An additional answer might also be “Not enough”: despite the size and
This thesis examines whether the adoption of automated decision-making (ADM) in Swedish municipal social assistance is followed by changes in welfare outcomes. ADM has spread rapidly across Swedish municipalities, but existing research has mainly studied single cases and organisational processes. I therefore study whether this diffusion leaves a measurable pattern at the municipal level. The analy
Purpose: To study the incidence and subtype of breast cancer in relation to incident and prevalent statin use in a contemporary Swedish prospective cohort, The Karolinska Mammography Project for Risk Prediction of Breast Cancer, KARMA. Methods: A total of 35,315 postmenopausal women attending mammography and included in the KARMA cohort (Jan 2011–March 2013) with data on statin use and potential c
Huminfra, Sweden’s national infrastructure for digital and experimental Humanities, consisting of 12 nodes, successfully met all its goals in 2024—the final year of its first funding period.First, the Huminfra website, https://www.huminfra.se/, which collates and links toSwedish digital and experimental research resources (instruments, tools, expertise, materials, training events) was further deve
In the last ten years labor economists have become increasingly interested in convex earnings structures in the labor market and their impact on the gender pay gap, an approach spearheaded by Claudia Goldin in her 2014 Presidential Address to the American Economic Association. The study has seen widespread acclaim, but very little replication. This study replicates parts of Claudia Goldin’s work,
I takt med digitaliseringens frammarsch har allt fler delar av våra liv integrerats med digitala plattformar av diverse slag, genom vår användning av sociala medier, sökmotorer, prisjämförelseverktyg m.fl. Att detta påverkar vår vardag kan knappast låta häpnadsväckande – så pass vardagliga är dessa plattformar att vi kanske inte tänker något särskilt på vilka appar som är förinstallerade på våra tAs digitization advances, more and more parts of our lives have been integrated with digital platforms of various kinds, through our use of social media, search engines, price comparison tools, and various other services. That this affects our everyday life can hardly sound surprising – these platforms are so commonplace that we may not give much thought to which apps are pre-installed on our phon
Sverige rankas idag allt som oftast som ett av världens mest sekulariserade länder. Vägen hit har dock inneburit en av de mest omfattande reformerna i modern tid. Genom religionsfrihetslagen år 1951 tillförsäkrades var och en rätten att fritt utöva sin religion och med anledning av detta påbörjades ett närmare 50 år långt utredningsarbete i syfte att klarlägga framtiden för samarbetet mellan stateSweden is consistently seen as being one of the most secularized countries in the world. Achieving this status, however, has required one of the most extensive reforms in modern time. With the enactment of the 1951 law for religious freedom every person was granted the right to freely express their religious beliefs, and due to this a nearly 50 year long investigation begun with the intent of clar
This thesis investigates the behaviour of an active dynamic filtering (ADF) system connected to an unknown electrical grid and suggests how to use control theory to reach desired requirements. The ADF system, which is based on a product by Comsys AB, consists of a PI controller and a low pass filter. The main part of this work was focused on developing methods for system identification by finding
The thesis investigates how employees in the anti-money laundering departments of Sweden's four major banks perceive the impact of bank secrecy on their ability to combat money laundering. Through an analysis of the results from a survey study, the thesis aims to provide insight into whether bank secrecy effectively balances anti-money laundering legislation or if there is a need for greater i
Byggsektorn står för en stor del av Sveriges klimatutsläpp och har som mål att till 2045 bli klimatneutral. För att klara detta mål krävs bland annat förändringar i materialanvändning, till exempel kan materialet betong i flera fall bytas ut mot KL-trä. KL-trä används idag som stommaterial och monteras ofta utan väderskydd med resultatet att vatten i form av nederbörd hamnar i springor och spalterTo reach Sweden's climate goals changes in the use of materials are required. Concrete can in several cases be replaced with Cross-Laminated Timber, or CLT, as framework material. Today CLT is often installed without weather protection, with the result of water ending up in cracks and joints that are difficult to cover. Based on today’s knowledge there is great uncertainty about what condition
PAPR Credentials is the name of a not yet published credential scheme that provides conditional privacy for its users. This means that an administrator can choose to revoke a user's anonymity. Doing so, however, the administrator must broadcast her intention, as the success of the privacy revocation depends on the help of other users, since the administrator does not have access to sufficient
The sociotechnical systems that present societies operate within fail to address sustainability which contributes to the exacerbation of environmental, societal, and economic injustices. Sustainable innovations are considered a potential solution pathway. Nevertheless, to have large scale impact, they need to commercialize successfully. Scholars agree that sustainable business models are essential
An evaluative neutralisation process, whereby questionnaire items are phrased to be less evaluative, was used to create a new less socially desirable version of the social dominance orientation scale (SDO7). The main goal is to counteract the persistent floor effect which has affected the scale since its inception. The rationale behind the suggested correction is rooted with the problem of social
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate how a brand’s packaging design becomes iconic through entering pop culture/art. Design/methodology/approach: This paper is of qualitative nature, based on a traditional literature review along with multiple case-study research. This approach allows for deep analysis into the dimensions of iconic packaging. Finally, template analysis was made to
The increasing concern on the present and future impact of climate change has raised the attention on the relationship between technology and the environment. The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of green innovation on carbon emissions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions per capita are used as a proxy for environmental quality. Technological innovation is measure
