Denna rapport undersöker vilken plats ett arbete har i en den unga arbetskraftens liv och vilka delar som är viktiga på en arbetsplats. Empirin består av kvalitativ data som samlats in via semistrukturerade intervjuer på ett IT-företag i Sverige. Vid en tematisk analys av det empiriska materialet visade resultatet på att arbetet har en centrall roll i en individs liv. Arbete hjälper individen att stärka hens identitet, uppfyller ett socialt behov, skapar struktur och låter hen var en del av ett större kollektiv. Belöningar kan komma i olika former, pengar,utveckling eller uppskattning, det som är av vikt är att det finns en ömsesidig balans mellan arbetsinsatsen och belöningen detta ger. Något som kan motivera en arbetstagare i arbetet äratt arbetsuppgiften är av betydelse, hen får och kan ta ansvar samt att hen har möjligheten att bedöma kvaliteten av sitt eget arbete. Vilka typer av krav som ställs på arbetstagaren, hur mycket inflytande hen har över sin arbetssituation samt vilket stöd som finns på arbetsplatse när några viktiga aspekter att ha i åtanke vid utformningen av en psykosocial arbetsmiljö. Alla dessa nämnda områden är centrala kring vad som är viktigt på en arbetsplats och det stora ansvaret ligger på cheferna att skapa förutsättningarna att dessa områden uppfylls. Att notera är att teorier framtagna för många decennier sedan fortfarande är av relevans på dagens unga arbetare.

Eftersom studenter ständigt står inför olika prestationsmoment avser denna studie att mäta huruvida det finns ett samband mellan personlighetsdragen ur Big Five-teorin och prestationsångest hos universitets- och högskolestudenter i Sverige, för att vidare kunna undersöka om olika personlighetsdrag är mer eller mindre känsliga för prestationsångest. Studien fick 86 svar på en webbenkät där studenterna först fick svara på bakgrundsvariablerna; kön, ålder, antal studieår, studietakt och om de arbetade parallellt med studierna. Vidare mätte enkäten Big Five’s personlighetsdrag med The Big Five Inventory (BFI) samt prestationsångest, som operationaliseras med Fear of Failure (FF) och mättes med The Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI). Vi fann en signifikant positiv relation mellan generell FF och personlighetsdraget neuroticism samt en signifikant positiv relation mellan generell FF och kvinnor. Mycket talar för att alla upplever FF men att vissa har förmågan att vända det till något positivt på grund av en stark passion och motivering för att lyckas nå sina mål.Students is a group that constantly is facing different elements of performance and therefore, this study aims to measure whether there is a correlation between the personality traits of the Big Five theory and performance anxiety for university and college students in Sweden, to further investigate if different personality traits are more or less sensitive to performance anxiety. The study received 86 answers from a web-poll where students first responded to background variables such as; gender, age, number of academic years, study-pace and if they worked during their studies. Furthermore, the survey measured Big Five's personality traits with The Big Five Inventory (BFI) and performance anxiety, got operationalized with Fear of Failure (FF), measured with The Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI). The study found a significantpositive relationship between general FF and the personality trait neuroticism and a significantpositiverelationship between general FF and women.Much suggests that everyone experiences some degree of FF but that some have the ability to turn it to something positive due to a strong passion and motivation to succeed in achieving their goals.

Med hjälp av personlighetstester och genom att känna till individers personlighet har forskning visat att man i viss mån kan förutsäga beteende och upplevd mental hälsa. Föreliggande studie syftade till att undersöka om och hur personlighetsdraget agreeableness (svenskans välvillighet) samverkar med upplevt välmående hos personer med en ledarroll. I en ledarroll förväntas personen kunna hantera beslutsfattande och konfrontationer. Furnham, Richards och Paulhus (2013) menar att Dark Triad, socialt avvikande personlighetsdrag, är en förlängning av agreeableness. Därför användes Dark Triad i studien och även för att eventuellt finna ytterligare samband med välmående i rollen som ledare. Mätinstrument som användes var IPIP-NEO-120 (α=.87) utifrån Big Five teorin vilken är den vanligaste teorin bland forskning om personlighet. För att mäta Dark Triad användes Dirty Dozen (α=.86). För att mäta välmående användes GHQ-12 (General Health Questionnaire) (α=.87). Studien utfördes med en online-enkät som besvarades av respondenter som har eller har haft en ledarposition (N=99). Respondenternas ålder varierade mellan 25-67, könsfördelningen var 54% män och 46% kvinnor. Insignifikanta resultat återfanns mellan agreeableness och upplevt välmående. Signifikanta resultat återfanns mellan Dark Triad och upplevt välmående (r=.22*) vilket vidare kan tolkas som att personer tenderar att må bättre om de besitter socialt avvikande personlighetsdrag. En rimlig slutsats av resultatet är därmed att det inte går att predicera hur välmående upplevs hos personer med en ledarroll med hjälp av agreeableness, dock i viss mån med hjälp av Dark Triad.With the help of personality tests and by knowing the individual's personality, research has shown that it's possible to predict behavior and perceived mental health to some extent. The present study aimed to examine whether and how the personality trait agreeableness relates to perceived well-being among leaders. Furnham, Richards and Paulhus (2013) argue that Dark Triad, socially deviant personality traits, is an extension of agreeableness. Therefore Dark Triad was used in this study and in order to possibly obtain more connections for perceived well-being. Instruments used were IPIP-NEO-120 (α=.87), based on the Big Five theory, the most common theory among personality research. To measure Dark Triad traits Dirty Dozen (α=.86) was used. To measure well-being GHQ-12 (General Health Questionnaire) (α=.87) was used. The study was conducted by an online survey that was answered by respondents who have or have had a leader position (N=99). Respondents age ranged from 25-67, the gender distribution was 54% male and 46% female. Insignificant results were found between agreeableness and perceived well-being. Significant results were found between Dark Triad and perceived well-being (r=.22*), which is further interpreted to mean that people tend to feel better if they possess deviant personality traits, and particularly narcissism. A reasonable conclusion from the study is that it's not possible, based on our sample, to predict how well-being is perceived in the role of leader with agreeableness but to some extent with the help of Dark Triad.

Tidigare forskning som undersökt relationen mellan alkoholkonsumtion, Big Five personlighetsfaktorerna samt känsla av sammanhang utfördes med fokus på riskbruk eller på populationer utanför Sverige. Därför testade denna studie samband mellan alkoholkonsumtion och (a) Big Five personlighetsfaktorerna, (b) KASAM, (c) utbildning samt demografiska variablerna (d) kön och ålder bland högskolestudenter i Sverige. Resultatet kan bidra till forskning om alkoholkonsumtion samt vara av intresse för initiativ som försöker begränsa alkoholkonsumtion. Urvalet bestod av 115 deltagare (64 kvinnor, 50 män och 1 ospecificerad. M = 24.64 år SD 4.27 år). Alkoholkonsumtion mättes med AUDIT-C, Big Five mättes med BFM och KASAM mättes med SOC-13. Alkoholkonsumtion korrelerade signifikant endast med en variabel, extravertion. Negativa korrelationer fanns mellan variabeln riskbruk av alkohol och variablerna KASAM och kön, i riskgruppen fanns fler kvinnor än män. Eftersom urvalet i riskgruppen var lågt hade det varit intressant för framtida forskning att undersöka denna relation igen med högre deltagarantal.

Femfaktormodellen är en personlighetsteori som används för att beskriva och utvärdera människors personligheter. Denna studie utgick från Femfaktormodellen och undersökte sambandet mellan personlighetsdrag och kostval, vilka könsskillnader som fanns avseende personlighetsdrag och kostval samt vilka de främsta självrapporterade anledningarna till att avstå eller minska köttkonsumtion var. Deltagarna (N=274) var universitetsstudenter över 18 år gamla vid ett svenskt universitet. Deltagarna rekryterades via Internet och besvarade en digital enkät. Resultaten av bivariat korrelationsanalys samt variansanalyser visade att personlighetsdraget ”Öppenhet” korrelerar med kostval och att det finns könsskillnader i en människas kostval beroende på grad av personlighetsdragen ”Känslomässig instabilitet” och ”Vänlighet”. Resultaten visade även att de främsta självrapporterade anledningarna att avstå eller minska köttkonsumtion beror på kön, kostval samt grad av ”Känslomässig instabilitet”. Sammanfattningsvis har denna studie bidragit med ny kunskap beträffande sambandet mellan personlighetsdrag och kostval.Big-Five personality is a personality theory that is used to describe and evaluate people's personalities. This study was based on the Big-Five personality theory and examined the relationship between personality traits and food choices, what gender differences that existed regarding personality traits and food choices and which the primary self-reported reasons to abstain or decrease meat consumption were. The participants (N=274) were university students over 18 years old at a Swedish university. The participants were recruited through Internet and answered a digital survey. The results from bivariate correlational analysis and analysis of variance showed that the personality trait ”Openness” correlates with food choices and that there are gender differences in a person's food choice depending on the level of the personality traits ”Neuroticism” and ”Agreeableness”. The results also showed that the primary self-reported reasons to abstain or decrease meat consumption depends on gender, food choices and level of ”Neuroticism”. In summary this study has contributed new knowledge regarding the relationship between personality traits and food choices.

Val av revisionsbyrå är ett viktigt beslut för samtliga företag. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka ifall små bolag inom den svenska fastighetsförmedlingsbranschen föredrar revisionsbyrå tillhörande Big Four. Det som ska undersökas mer noggrant är ifall dessa bolag väljer en revisionsbyrå tillhörande Big Four utifrån olika interna faktorer hos företag. Studien präglas av en kvantitativ metod för att försöka besvara syftet där empiri har samlats in från 84 olika små bolag tillhörande den svenska fastighetsförmedlingsbranschen. Vidare bygger uppsatsen på legitimitetsteorin som teoretisk referensram samt olika vetenskapliga artiklar som presenteras i litteraturöversikten. Utifrån referensramen och litteraturöversikten har fyra olika hypoteser tagits fram. Dessa hypoteser testades sedan med hjälp av olika statistiska verktyg. Studiens resultat indikerar på att det inte finns något positivt samband mellan val av revisionsbyrå tillhörande Big Four och någon av studiens fyra hypoteser. I studiens slutsats redogörs det att totala tillgångar, omsättning, eget kapital samt personalkostnader inte är förknippade med val av revisionsbyrå tillhörande Big Four.

Mitigation of climate change and energy security are major driving forces for increased biomass utilization. The pulp and paper industry consumes a large proportion of the biomass worldwide including bark, wood residues, and black liquor. Due to the fact that modern mills have established infrastructure for handling and processing biomass, it is possible to lay foundation for future gasification based bio-refineries to poly-produce electricity, chemicals or bio-fuels together with pulp and paper products. There is a potential to export electricity or bio-fuels by improving energy systems of existing chemical pulp mills by integrating gasification technology. The present study investigates bio-fuel alternatives from the dry black liquor gasification (BLG) system with direct causticization and direct methane production from the catalytic hydrothermal gasification (CHG) system. The studied systems are compared with bio-fuel alternatives from the Chemrec BLG system and the improvements in the energy systems of the pulp mill are analyzed. The results are used to identify the efficient route based on system performance indicators e.g. material and energy balances to compare BLG systems and the conventional recovery boiler system, potential biofuel production together with biomass to biofuel conversion efficiency, energy ratios, potential CO2 mitigation combining on-site CO2 reduction using CO2 capture and potential CO2 offsets from biofuel use, and potential motor fuel replacement. The results showed that the dry BLG system for synthetic natural gas (SNG) production offers better integration opportunities with the chemical pulp mill in terms of overall material and energy balances. The biofuel production and conversion efficiency are higher in the CHG system than other studied configurations but at a cost of larger biomass import. The dry BLG system for SNG production achieved high biomass to biofuel efficiency and considerable biofuel production. The energy ratio is significant in the dry BLG (SNG) system with less biomass demand and considerable net steam production in the BLG island. The elimination of the lime kiln in the dry BLG systems resulted in reduced consequences of incremental biomass import and associated CO2 emissions. Hydrogen production in the dry BLG system showed the highest combined CO2 mitigation potential i.e. on-site CO2 capture potential and CO2 offset from biofuel replacing fossil fuel. The results also showed that the motor fuel replacement potential with SNG as compressed natural gas (CNG) replacing gasoline in the transport sector is significantly high in countries with large pulp industry.QC 20120528

This study provides a comprehensive genetic overview on the endangered Italian wolf population.
In particular, it focuses on two research lines.
On one hand, we focalised on melanism in wolf in order to isolate a mutation related with black
coat colour in canids.
With several reported black individuals (an exception at European level), the Italian wolf population
constituted a challenging research field posing many unanswered questions. As found in North
American wolf, we reported that melanism in the Italian population is caused by a different
melanocortin pathway component, the K locus, in which a beta-defensin protein acts as an
alternative ligand for the Mc1r. This research project was conducted in collaboration with Prof.
Gregory Barsh, Department of Genetics and Paediatrics, Stanford University.
On the other hand, we performed analysis on a high number of SNPs thanks to a customized Canine
microarray useful to integrate or substitute the STR markers for genotyping individuals and
detecting wolf-dog hybrids. Thanks to DNA microchip technology, we obtained an impressive
amount of genetic data which provides a solid base for future functional genomic studies. This
study was undertaken in collaboration with Prof. Robert K. Wayne, Department of Ecology and
Evolutionary Biology, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).

The canon of South African literature, as shaped by publishers, academics and past government education policies, reflects dominant race, class, language and gender biases. Knowledge of large areas of South African literature is still limited by such biases. This research focuses on and seeks to redress some of the silences surrounding Black South African Women writers and their texts. Working within the bounds of a literary canon defined by an established hierarchy and a system of binary opposites, the research deals with denied existence using the terms 'Black', 'South African' and 'Women' as tactical tools to rewrite history and repossess, revalue and reposition identity and knowledge. These terms are not intended to act as indicators of static or essential being and are used provisionally. It is hoped that the research will provide the means for new and continued interrogation of meaning within and beyond the labels and categories I have used. Prompted by an obvious lack of secondary reference material on Black South African Women writers, the research was developed as a reference source. It takes the form of a biobibliographical survey of Black South African Women writers from the first 'known' published Woman writer to the present day. The survey includes texts written in African languages as a conscious attempt to overcome the inequalities and silences promoted through the priority given to English-language texts within the South African literary canon. While Black South African Women's writing does not have a tradition in the canonical sense, the survey illustrates that it does have a past, a present and a future. It is guided by a notion of recovery and an attempt to begin a process of preservation that will hopefully continue and expand. The research aims to encourage a return to the original texts which would not otherwise be 'known'. It is thereby hoped that it will foster a greater critical awareness of Black South African Women's writing. The emphasis on both auto/biographical and bibliographical data is considered important In enabling the development of a better understanding of the way in which Black South African Women writers and their writing emerge from and intervene in specific and diverse contexts, public and private. The greater aim of the research is to provide a resource which will help us explore and begin to theorise that which resists, decentres, transforms and operates beyond the limitations set by established hierarchical polarities.

Thesis for scientific degree of Candidate of Engineering Science on specialty 05.02.08 – Manufacturing Engineering. – National Technical University of Ukraine "Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute", Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, Kyiv, 2019. The dissertation is devoted to the development of the technology of machining of internal threads using the method of non-centroidal bending on CNC milling machines with the use of a non-profile cutting tool. On the basis of the analysis of the ad-vantages and disadvantages of existing methods of machining internal threads with profile cutting tool or comb tool cutters, and multi-pass turning with a non-core cutting tool, the working hypothesis of the dissertation research was formulated. It consisted in justification of the prospects of using the method of non-centroidal bending as a more productive technology of ensuring the accuracy and quality parameters of internal thread. It was justified the area of application of machining method of non-centroidal with a non-core cut-ting tool for the metric thread- in the range of thread steps from 2 to 3,5 mm and diameters from 16 to 64 mm, trapezoidal threads with thread step - 2 mm and diameters from 16 to 28 mm, inch thread - with all standard sizes of steps and diameters from G3/8 to G3 '' and rope thread with a thread step – 12,7 mm and diameters from R22 to 64 mm. In present research by means of calculating the parameters of the spiral trajectory, the kinematic scheme of combining the rotation of the cutting tool, the movement of the axial feed of the cutting tool, the movement of the circular supply of the workpiece around the axis of the cutting tool, and the number of cutting inserts it was theoretically justified condition of bending of cutting inserts for a new method for machining internal threads. Based on mathematical modeling of force interaction, the efficiency of the proposed design of a cutting tool for the implementation of the method of non-centroidal bending on CNC milling machines was justified. As a result of modal analysis of designed cutting tool for machining of rope, metric and inch threads it was determined proved no resonance when using the developed tool. The value of the first internal frequency of a non-core tool for machining rope thread was 2213 Hz, which didn’t coincide with the natural frequency of machining, which was 63 Hz, at spindle speed ni = 1250 rpm for cutting tool with three cutting inserts. The first internal frequency of a non-core cutting tool for machining metric and inch thread was 1537 Hz, which also did not coincide with the natural frequency of the cutting tool during machining – 50 Hz, which corresponds to the spindle speed ni = 1000 rpm for cutting tool with three cutting inserts. By means of linear programming and optimization based on the criterion of maximum productivity, with the limitation on the parameters of accuracy and quality of internal thread, the area of optimal cutting parameters was determined. It was established and experimen-tally confirmed that the proposed manufacturing technology, as well as the design of cutting tools for circular R32 and metric cut M48x3-7N and M48x3-LH-7N, allowed to ensure the accuracy of machining in accordance with the requirements of the relevant standards. The optimal cutting parameters for rope thread R32 was determined for machining of stainless steel 5ХНМ (1.2711, 1.2713, 55NiCrMoV5 in DIN classification): cutting speed – 118 m/min and FPM – mm/min, and for machining steel 40Х (1.7045, 37Cr4 in DIN classifica-tion) cutting speed – 144 m/min, and FRM – 210 mm/min. On the basis of calculation of operating time according to the criteria of the direct manufacture time and auxiliary time it was determined that the proposed technological process allowed to reduce direct manufacture time from 2 to 9 times, and the auxiliary time - from 2 to 3 times in comparison with the existing technological process of machining of internal threads. Implementation of the results of the dissertation research into manufacturing allowed to receive an economic effect, according to the enlarged calculations, for machining bit blank in the amount of 42260 UAH., and when machining double socket – 16550 UAH., with annual output 2000 pcs. of each item. That allowed to reduce the cost of one part by 21,13 UAH. and 8,28 UAH respectively.

Optical properties of the seas surrounding Turkey (i.e. Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea and Aegean Sea) are investigated utilizing the data collected from years 2001-2005. Pigment, light (irradiance), absorption samples were collected and analyzed. SeaWiFS and MODIS satellite observations between years 1997-2006 has been collected, processed and analyzed. High temporal and spatial variability is observed in the optical properties of the three basins. The Mediterranean Sea and the Black Seas are the two typical examples of the Case I and the Case II waters, respectively. SeaWiFS and MODIS derived chlorophyll data obtained during the time period where the data were coexistent (2002-2004) gave consistent results. Thus, data from both sensors are used to establish temporal continuity. Optical classification of the water types based on the Jerlov model shows that the Mediterranean has clear (Type 1) and very clear water type characteristics and the Black Sea and the Marmara waters are turbid (Type 5). Absorption from yellow substance (or so-called CDOM) does not optically dominate the Mediterranean allowing accurate estimation of pigment concentrations by remote sensing methods. This study is further extended to analyze the main contributing phytoplankton groups to the bio-optical characteristics in the three basins. HPLC measurements show that the diatoms are the main group in the Black Sea ecosystem. Whereas in Mediterranean Cyanophyta dominates. Phytoplankton group compositions in the offshore and coastal regions of the Mediterranean do not show considerable difference. The main differences are the higher Prymnesiophyceae (nearly two times higher then the offshore) and lower Cyanophyta contribution in the coastal regions compared to offshore regions.

Large carnivores have been subjected to overexploitation and extensive habitat loss for centuries. Reintroduction has become an increasingly used tool for recovering and reestablishing large carnivore populations; however, most reintroductions have either failed or resulted in small populations that are vulnerable to deleterious demographic, environmental, and genetic effects that can lead to population loss or extinction. Longterm monitoring of small, reintroduced populations is critical to population persistence and viability. To evaluate long-term reintroduction success and current status of a recently reintroduced, small black bear (Ursus americanus) population in the Big South Fork area of Kentucky, I used non-invasive hair sampling in a systematic, closedpopulation capture-mark-recapture study design. I used ≥ 20 microsatellite loci to identify individual bear, quantify genetic diversity, investigate genetic relatedness, estimate population abundance and density, and investigate patterns of range expansion. The Big South Fork population is comprised of closely-related individuals, is small (N = 40; 95% CI: 30-113), of low density (0.03 bear/km2), has experienced minimal range expansion, and exhibits decreased genetic diversity (HE = 0.698). Because of prolonged isolation from nearby subpopulations, the Big South Fork population remains vulnerable and requires immediate and continued monitoring.

This paper explores the general attitudes of African Americans towards the programming disseminated on the BET network past and present (pre-Viacom/post-Viacom). The mass media company Viacom acquired BET from African American founder Robert L. Johnson in 1980. BET under Johnson took pride in its ability to provide sophisticated, value-driven, and positive programming for African Americans. This study looks to see if the cultural values at BET have changed via its programming since Viacom’s purchase. This study utilized social media to survey 100 participants who were born prior to 1984 who identify as African American or mixed African American and are familiar with BET. This paper uses social identity theory to examine the attitudes that the African American participants hold towards BET as they use their value-set to negotiate their social identity via their attitudes with the content shown on BET. This research reveals the importance of viewing cultures as heterogeneous as well as the importance of cultural groups such as African Americans controlling the dissemination of their own cultural messages and images. A paired T-test analysis revealed statistically a significant difference of participant attitudes of BET in the past (1980-1999) and the present (2000-2015). The participants therefore rated BET higher on the average in the past when BET was black owned (pre-Viacom), as opposed to the present now that BET is white owned (post-Viacom).

Personlighet påverkar många livsaspekter. Tidigare forskning har visat att politik är en av dessa aspekter. Forskning inom området har konstaterat ett samband mellan personlighet och riktningen av personers politiska orientering samt mellan personlighet och Känsla av sammanhang (KASAM). Däremot fanns en forskningslucka kring relationen mellan KASAM och politik. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka relationen som de fem grundläggande personlighetsdimensionerna och KASAM har till Politiskt intresse samt Politisk inriktning, men även relationen mellan personlighetsdimensionerna och KASAM. Hundrafemtiofem studenter deltog varav 37 män. Datainsamling gjordes via enkät, som bestod av BFI-44, SOC-13 samt självrapportering av Politiskt intresse och inriktning. Databearbetningen skedde via korrelationsanalys samt regressionsanalys. Studiens resultat visade att personlighet hade ett samband med politik samt KASAM och att KASAM hade ett samband med en högerorienterad politisk inriktning. Eftersom relationen mellan KASAM och politik var relativt outforskad kan resultatet av denna studie ses som ett intressant ämne för framtida forskning.

Abstract:
Located between Istros and Orgamè, Karaburun is one of the archaic Greek colonies in the
southern Danube delta with an occupation period beginning in the mid-6
th c. BC. Nowadays,
the remains of the ancient settlement are located close to the shores of lagoon Goloviţa within
the Razelm-Sinoe lagoon system which forms the southern part of the Danube Delta. The
archaeological and geomorphological data from the site indicates its co-existence with the
neighboring ancient cities of Istros and Orgamè on the western Black Sea littoral. However,
while research have been carried out in these two major cities, the case of Karaburun has been
overlooked. Nothing has been done regarding questions of environmental evolution of the coast
to explain the anthropogenic and natural processes that had impact on the settlement. The
present study deals with the late Holocene coastal landscape transformation from a paleo-lake
stage to the present-day lagoon system. It follows a geoarchaeological approach based on the
multi-proxy analysis of 4 cores collected from the area surrounding the site. Sedimentology
and fossil micro-fauna (mainly ostracods) methods coupled with 14C (AMS) dates were applied
with the aim to resolve the following questions: coastal dynamism and its connection with
Istros and Orgamè. Moreover, various other factors that led to geomorphological reform in the
southern Danube deltas are incorporated to answer the hypothesis raised here.

This thesis explores the complexities of constructing a German identity as a black German. The recent emergence of Germany's black minority group was generally perceived as an opportunity to reevaluate Germanness as it has been understood in the past. However, this thesis shows that a reevaluation of Germanness lacks full support because traditional German ideals of racial superiority continue to exist in the consciousness of all Germans - black and white. This suggests that theories of racial superiority continue to determine belonging and identity construction in Germany. Above all, the presence of Western racial ideology in black German identity construction signifies a development of self-rejection and the disunity of the black German population. This thesis explores these effects through black German literature, survey interviews and German media.

Frågan om det finns något sätt att förutsäga hög arbetsprestation hos individer är på många sätt relevant i organisationssammanhang. Tidigare forskning har visat att personlighet och arbetsengagemang relaterar till prestation, för vad är det egentligen som bidrar till hög individuell arbetsprestation? Syftet med föreliggande studie var att med hjälp av en enkätundersökning undersöka vilken roll personlighet och arbetsengagemang spelar för individuell arbetsprestation. Studiens hypoteser handlade om vilken prediktor, arbetsengagemang eller ett specifikt personlighetsdrag som kunde förklara mest av variationen i individuell arbetsprestation. En kvantitativ studie genomfördes med hjälp av en webbaserad enkätundersökning som baserades på mätinstrument för individuell arbetsprestation (Individual Work Performance Questionnaire), arbetsengagemang (Utrecht Work Engagement Scale) samt personlighet (Mini International Personality Item Pool-6). Kriterierna för att få delta var att vara över 18 år samt besitta en arbetslivserfarenhet över 6 månader. Studiens deltagande uppgick till 162 personer (ålder: M = 35.8, SD = 14.5). Resultaten från regressionsanalysen överensstämde med studiens hypoteser där arbetsengagemang var den överlag starkaste prediktorn för att kunna förutsäga individuell arbetsprestation. Av personlighetsdragen hade conscientiousness störst samband för uppgiftsbaserad prestation samt kontextuell prestation, medan neuroticism hade störst samband för kontraproduktivt arbetsbeteende. Studiens slutsats var att det mest effektiva sättet att mäta individuell arbetsprestation på var genom mätinstrumentet Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES-9) som mäter arbetsengagemang.The question of whether there is a way of forecasting high individual work performance is in many ways relevant in organizational contexts. Previous research has shown that personality and work engagement relate to work performance but what part exactly is it that contributes to high individual work performance? The purpose of this paper was to conduct a survey to investigate the relevance between personality and work engagement variables and their correlation to individual work performance. The hypotheses of the study concerned which predictor, work engagement or a specific personality trait could explain most of the variation in individual work performance. A quantitative study was conducted using a web-based survey based on measuring instruments for individual work performance (Individual Work Performance Questionnaire), work engagement (Utrecht Work Engagement Scale) and personality (Mini International Personality Item Pool-6). To participate you had to be over the age of 18 and exceeded 6 months of work experience. 162 participants were involved in this study (M = 35.8, SD = 14.5). The results show that work engagement was the strongest predictor to forecast high individual work performance. In regard to task-based and contextual performance the results show a correlation with the personality trait conscientiousness, while counterproductive work behaviour had a strong correlation with neuroticism. The study shows that the most effective way to estimate individual work performance was through Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES-9), which measures work engagement.

Повний текст джерелаАнотація:
The Black Gate cemetery in Newcastle-upon-Tyne was established within the abandoned remains of a Roman fort (Pons Aelius) in the 8th century and was an active burial ground until the 12th century AD. The cemetery has yielded 663 articulated skeletons, making it one of the largest skeletal assemblages recovered from later Anglo-Saxon England. Aside from the cemetery there is no physical evidence for settlement in the area from the abandonment of Pons Aelius in 410 AD. until the first phase of construction of a Norman castle in 1080 AD. Documentary evidence indicates the presence of a monastery within the immediate locality of the cemetery; however, archaeological evidence for a monastic settlement at the site has yet to be identified. Consequently, the origin of the contributory population is uncertain. To determine the nature and origin of the Black Gate cemetery population a bio-cultural investigation was undertaken. Investigation into the relationship between health and the different demographic and social components of the assemblage, determined from burial form and variation, enabled a picture of the overall social and environmental impact on levels of physiological stress to be assessed. Indicators of stress were compared with thirteen sites of known context to determine if the health profile observed amongst the Black Gate population shared characteristics with urban, rural or monastic assemblages. A detailed picture of the health and funerary behaviour of the Black Gate cemetery was attained. However, the origin of this population remains inconclusive. This research emphasises the multi-factorial nature of physiological stress and that age, diet, cultural practices and status had a greater impact upon the skeleton than settlement type in the later Anglo-Saxon period.

Nous étudions d'abord' les algorithmes évolutionnairesPour l'optimisation continue, en mettant l'accent sur deux algorithmes que nous avons utilisés comme algorithmecible pour CAPI,DE et CMAFES.Ensuite, nous passons en revue l'état de l'art desapproches de configuration d'algorithme, et lesdifférentes fonctionnalités qui ont été proposées dansla littérature pour décrire les problèmesd'optimisation de boîte noire continue.Nous introduisons ensuite une méthodologie générale Pour étudier empiriquement le CAPI pour le domainecontinu, de sorte que toutes les composantes du CAPIpuissent être explorées dans des conditions réelles.À cette fin, nous introduisons également un nouveau Banc d'essai de boîte noire continue, distinct ducélèbre benchmark BBOB, qui est composé deplusieurs fonctions de test multidimensionnelles avec'différentes propriétés problématiques, issues de lalittérature.La méthodologie proposée est finalement appliquée 'àdeux AES. La méthodologie est ainsi, validéempiriquement sur le nouveau banc d’essaid’optimisation boîte noire pour des dimensions allant jusqu’à 100This PhD thesis focuses on the automated algorithm configuration that aims at finding the best parameter setting for a given problem or a' class of problem. The Algorithm Configuration problem thus amounts to a metal Foptimization problem in the space of parameters, whosemetaFobjective is the performance measure of the given algorithm at hand with a given parameter configuration. However, in the continuous domain, such method can only be empirically assessed at the cost of running the algorithm on some problem instances. More recent approaches rely on a description of problems in some features space, and try to learn a mapping from this feature space onto the space of parameter configurations of the algorithm at hand. Along these lines, this PhD thesis focuses on the Per Instance Algorithm Configuration (PIAC) for solving continuous black boxoptimization problems, where only a limited budget confessionnalisations available. We first survey Evolutionary Algorithms for continuous optimization, with a focus on two algorithms that we have used as target algorithm for PIAC, DE and CMAFES. Next, we review the state of the art of Algorithm Configuration approaches, and the different features that have been proposed in the literature to describe continuous black box optimization problems. We then introduce a general methodology to empirically study PIAC for the continuous domain, so that all the components of PIAC can be explored in real Fworld conditions. To this end, we also introduce a new continuous black box test bench, distinct from the famous BBOB'benchmark, that is composed of a several multiFdimensional test functions with different problem properties, gathered from the literature. The methodology is finally applied to two EAS. First we use Differential Evolution as'target algorithm, and explore all the components of PIAC, such that we empirically assess the best. Second, based on the results on DE, we empirically investigate PIAC with Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMAFES) as target algorithm. Both use cases empirically validate the proposed methodology on the new black box testbench for dimensions up to100

This research addresses a significant gap in previous work on the formation of urban and suburban black skateboarding subcultures. By using data generated through oral histories, photographs, mapping, and literature review, this study explores why black youth initially began skateboarding in New Orleans in the mid-2000s. In contrast to the scholarly literature and local popular perception, this visual anthropological study aims to provide an alternative origin story of black skateboarding in Post-Katrina New Orleans, and to examine the continuing popularity of the sport within the young black community.

We initiated bait station surveys for black bears in southwestern Virginia in 1999. Bait station surveys are intended to be used as an index to follow bear population trend over time. We compared the bait station visitation (black bear visitation) to black bear harvest and mast surveys 1999 = 2002. The mean bait station visitation rate during 1999 - 2002 was 15.3% (SE = 2.89, n = 4). The number of bears harvested in the 3 counties that also had bait station surveys was 48 (31 males, 17 females), 59 (44 males, 15 females), 45 (32 males, 13 females), and 43 (26 males, 17 females) in 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002, respectively. Harvest of males and females differed (n = 2, F = 19.44, df = 1, P = 0.0045). Bait station visitation and female harvest had a strong functional relationship with a negative slope (n = 4, r = -0.78, P = 0.22). The strongest relationship was between male harvest and total harvest (n = 4, r = 0.97, P = 0.03). Mean index to mast production for 1999 - 2002 was 2.3 (range 1.5 - 3.1), 2.7 (range 1.8 - 3.4), 2.3 (range 1.6 - 3.6), and 1.6 (range 1.2 - 2.4), respectively. The overall summary for mast production for the same years was described as fair, good, fair, and poor to fair. Mast production was significantly different between years (n = 4, F = 3.44, df = 3, P = 0.0326), and soft and hard mast production appeared to be above average in 2000. This corresponded with the lowest visitation (10.2%) of the 4 years. There was no correlation between bait station visitation and mast production (n = 4, r = 0.11, P = 0.87).
Since 1998, the annual bear harvest in Virginia has exceeded 900 individuals (with the exception of 824 in 2001), and peaked in 2000 when 1,000 bears were harvested. Though harvest rates were high, a reliable population estimate did not exist for black bears in Virginia. We estimated population size, growth rate, and minimum viable population size using data collected between 1995-2000. We used Jolly-Seber, direct recovery, and minimum population size methods to estimate population size. The Jolly-Seber method estimate of adult female density was 0.23-0.64 bears/km2, and 0.01 bears/km2 for adult males. We estimated a density of 0.09-0.23 bears/km2 for all sex and age classes using direct recovery data. Using minimum population size, we found adult female density was higher than any other sex or age class (n = 6, t = 2.02, df = 40, P < 0.0001) with an average density of 0.055 adult females/km2.
We used mark-recapture data collected from 148 individual bears (96 males:52 females) captured 270 times in program MARK to estimate survival using recapture, dead recovery, and Burnham's combined models. Adult females had the highest survival rate of 0.84-0.86, while yearling males had the lowest with 0.35. Using direct recovery data, adult females again had the highest survival rate with 0.93 (0.83-1.0) and 3-year old males had the lowest with 0.59 (0.35-0.83). We estimated growth rate using population estimates from Jolly-Seber, direct recoveries, and minimum population size methods. The lowest growth rate estimated was for all females (ages lumped) using minimum population size data (λ=0.82). Direct recovery data for all bears (sex and age lumped) during 1995 - 2000 showed the highest positive annual growth rate (λ = 1.24).
We developed a population model using Mathcad 8 Professional to determine population growth rate, MVP, and harvest effects for an exploited black bear population in southwestern Virginia. We used data collected during the CABS study (1995 - 2000) in the model including population estimates derived from direct recovery data, age and sex specific survival rates, and cub sex ratios. When we used actual population values in the model, the bear population in southwestern Virginia did not go extinct in 100 years (l = 1.03, r = 0.03). When we reduced adult female survival from 0.94 to 0.89, the probability of extinction in 100 years was 3.0% and l = 0.99 (r = -0.01; Table 3.2). When the survival was reduced by an additional 0.01 to 0.88, the probability of extinction increased to 13.0% (l = 0.99, r = -0.01). Growth rate and extinction probabilities were very sensitive to adult female survival rates. Two-year old and 3-year old females did not impact extinction probabilities and growth rates as much as adult females. Their survival could be decreased by 44.0%, and still be less than the 5.0% extinction probability.Master of Science

In the development of digitally connected solutions that require the use of personal data, the issue of data privacy is an important factor that must be taken into account. Simply informing users about how data is used and getting their consent with a simple click is not enough to create awareness of the issue of data privacy and let them make a conscious decision about the use of their personal data. Furthermore, there is a big gap in knowledge about what personal data is and what is considered sensitive data. Especially the knowledge about what biometric identifiers that they are used in a variety of everyday life applications and in which sense the handling can be problematic is unknown.This thesis project explores how the use of critical play in form of an activist game can create awareness of the issue of data privacy, inform about the value of biometric data and foster self-reflection of handling one’s own personal data. Through the simulation of dependencies between personal data, the motivation to share them and the aggregation of personal data in combination with real and prospective use cases, players are empowered to reflect on their behaviour and to critically deal with the topic of data privacy.
