In Sweden today, the consumers have the opportunity to use the different sales channels; physical store, online store and brick and click, a combination of both. For the past decade, the use of ecommerce has spread tremendously and the fashion industry is one of the top three industries in this category. This, together with the growth of technology, have created new opportunities for consumers during their online shopping. The purpose of this study is to examine the differences between consumers who use physical store, online store or both. This study aims to look into consumers' shopping habits within these sales channels and factors that are affecting them.

Under många år har shopping betraktats som en kvinnlig aktivitet, men allt fler män har börjat visa intresse för mode. Då målgruppen vuxit har även detaljhandeln fått expandera, och det ses som viktigt att förstå konsumenter och hur de fattar beslut. Konsumentbeteende beskrivs som en process där konsumenter väljer och köper produkter för att tillgodose sina behov. På grund av den traditionella synen på shopping har manligt köpbeteende varit ett bortprioriterat forskningsområde. Den forskning som har bedrivits har främst fokuserat på unga manliga konsumenter utifrån kvantitativa metoder, varav mer djupgående studier saknas på äldre män och deras köpbeslutsprocess.

The use of digital devices are widely spread among us. Children have an iPad in their hands before they learn how to talk and we bet you look at your smartphone more times a day then you would like to admit? Interaction through these devices have become so natural in our daily life that we get confused when a retailer does not offer a website or an app. The habit of searching for information in the most accessible channel and buying in the one that offers the benefit of convenience, and of course, saves you money and time, is a common way of shopping these days. This is referred to as multi-channel shopping.

Background and problem: Corporate Governance is a well-known phenomenon which has been the focus of plenty of research where the board of directors and the CEO have been regarded as important actors. What's affecting decisions regarding these actors has been debated whereas media has been pointed out of having an impact. To decide whether or not media can affect Corporate Governance have shown to be problematic whereas it exists divergent views regarding this. At the same time this relationship is more explored in other contexts than the swedish one, although this one is considered suitable for this. Consequently there is a motive for examining medias impact on Corporate Governance in Sweden. Purpose: The purpose of the thesis is to explain if media has an impact on Corporate Governance at an overall level.

Uppsatsens syfte är att studera hur tre butikschefer och en centrumledare i gallerian Smedjan, Luleå, ser på upplevelsehandel och värdeskapande i butiker. Denna studie är kvalitativ med hermeneutiskt förhållningssätt och abduktiv ansats. För att kunna besvara forskningsfrågan, uppfylla syftet och förstå den empiriska forskningen använde jag mig av en rad olika källor. Jag har intervjuat tre butikschefer i köpcentret Smedjan i Luleå centrum samt centrumledaren för Smedjan.Denna studie har visat att förutom professionellt bemötande från butikspersonal så har det lilla extra, det som kunder upplever är värdeskapande, blivit något som butikschefer också uppmärksammat. Det kan vara kläder som exponeras på nytänkande sätt, en medarbetare som bemött en kund med empati, kunskap och förståelse eller ett överraskningsmoment i butiken som väcker förtjusning hos kunden.

In the fragmented network economy of toady remote work for creative designers becomes mor eand more prevalent. This is good for a number of reasons. Mainly, creative designers can find work inside and outside of their region irrespective of where they choose to live. However, competing for jobs in a global market is harder, and the online presence of the creatives becomes their main shopping window. We have conducted a study, interviewing digital creatives in Västerbotten.

Title: Multi channel publishing: a qualitative study on how Norrköpings Tidningen publishes news in multiple channelsAuthor: Roland AlbinssonThesis supervisor: Per-Anders ForstorpBackground: In this day and age, the media is omnipresent and a part of our daily life. The phenomenon of media convergence can be traced back to the birth of the internet, and today all of the major newspapers have a website of their own.

Den här uppsatsen handlar om turism och resande. Jag har valt att inrikta mig på storstadsturism och storstadsweekends i utlandet i min undersökning. Idag är storstadsturismen mycket stor, inte minst i Europa. Många turister väljer att åka på så kallade storstadsweekends, vilket innebär att man gör en kortare resa på några dagar till en storstad, ofta över en förlängd helg. Det handlar i de flesta fall om resor till europeiska huvudstäder, men resmålet kan även vara välkända städer i USA.

Många av dagens dator och TV-spelsljud är anpassade för högtalaruppspelning, i många fall även flerkanalssystem som 5.1 surround och liknande. Få spel är anpassade för uppspelning genom hörlurar och för att få en bra ljudlokalisering i hörlurar behövs ofta någon form av surroundhörlurar. Vi tror att man kan skapa trovärdig (Riktnings)återgivning av ljud i hörlurar genom bara två ljudkanaler genom så kallat binauralt ljud. Vi kommer i detta arbete att beskriva de faktorer som spelar roll i vår stereohörsel, varför de fungerar samt vilka svagheter som finns i detta system. Vi kommer att skapa ett system för att behandla realtidsgenererat binauralt ljud för spel och beskriva de verktyg vi valt och den generella arbetsprocessen.
