This study examines the factors that influence the seasonal movements of Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos), and can thus provide important information that helps to improve the protection of the species. There were two main purposes of this study. First, I wanted to analyze the difference between preferences of juvenile and adult Golden Eagles in their choice of southern or northern hibernation areas. Do younger eagles prefer moving longer distance to southern areas of Sweden? Second, I wanted to investigate how the climate influenced the choice of date of migration in the fall.

Our post-modern society is being continually more characterized by the working life, where corporate relations and the understanding of human momentum, limitations and knowledge is the basis of the quality of the corporation. In other words, it is of the greatest importance to keep in mind the attitudes, behaviour, stress levels and motivations that constitute a good working environment. We find it interesting to study what social psychological approaches and social processes could be of importance to good cooperation. The research has its starting point in a qualitative method focused on semi- structured interviews, where we have interviewed eight respondents working within the psychiatry. The research has strengthened our pre-understanding but also made clear the existence of other social processes and approaches that affect cooperation.

Nilsson, P. (2005). Which manager qualities can be related to a health promotive leadership? A questionnaire study among managers at hospitals. (41 p.)AbstractPeople?s working life and individual health can be seen as strongly related to each other because people spend the most of their adult lives at their places of work.

The aim with this study is to through a research summary review experiences of growth and theparents caring ability among children who has grown up with parents having intellectual disabilites,and by empirical data illustrate how these persons today describe their childhood, their parentscaring ability and other cicumstances that have affected the growth. The results from the researchsummary are then to be compared with the results from the empirical data in purpose to reviewsimilarities and discrepancies.The study has a qualitative approach and it is based on foundings from earlier research andinterviews with four women whos mothers have intellectual disabilities.In the existing research of this issue there is a clear dichotomy between whether the researchershave focused on either the children or the parents. In both perspectives there are differentconceptions about whether a person with intellectual disabilities have the capacity to care for andraise a child, as there is about how the parents intellectual disaparment affects the child.The womens stories of the childhood are obviously unique, but they also have many experiencesin common, both among themselves as with what has been found in research. Children of parentswith intellectual disabilities have been classified as a risk group, wich has been shown by reversedroles for child and parent, lack of attachment to the parents and by insufficient care. Despite thedifficulties that the women have faced, they describe many parts of their lives in positive termstoday.There seems to be other influences in addition to the parents intellectual capacity that affect theesechildrens outcomes.

Bakgrund: Samhället står idag, till följd av 40-talisternas förväntade pensionsavgångar, inför en omfattande generationsväxling. Således ställs allt högre krav på gynnsam kompetens- försörjning inte minst inom kommunal sektor. För att möta problematiken är Traineeprogram inom denna sektor en växande trend varför vi såg det som ett intressant studieobjekt att utvärdera Traineeprogrammet Skåne Nordväst.Syfte: Syftet är att beskriva och analysera traineeprogrammets bakgrund, process och utfall, att utifrån det organisations- pedagogiska perspektivet förklara programmets utfall på individ och organisationsnivå samt att diskutera principer för utveckling av traineeprogram.Metod: De metodologiska utgångspunkterna för den empiriska studien är en kvalitativt inriktad fallstudie med induktiv ansats och ramfaktormodellen som struktur.Resultat: Genom att studera traineeprogrammet i sin helhet framgick en rad kritiska moment som kan sägas ha haft påverkan på det i stort gynnsamma utfallet. För att skapa en förklarings- modell relaterades resultatet till former av utveckling och kollektiva lärprocesser. Detta diskuterades sedan med avseende på hur syftesuppfyllelsen i programmet är beroende av synen på utveckling, som formning eller emergent.

Problemställning: Fler barn och ungdomar med kroniska sjukdomar övergår till vuxensjukvård då medicinsk och medicinteknisk utveckling blivit mer avancerad. Detta ställer krav på vuxensjukvården att kunna ta över ungdomar som kommer från barnsjukvården så att de upplever en god och tillfredställande vård. Det finns dock lite forskning kring hur övergången till vuxensjukvård upplevs av ungdomar med kroniska sjukdomar. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva hur ungdomar med kronisk sjukdom upplever övergången från barn- till vuxensjukvård. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en litteraturöversikt och baserades på 14 vetenskapliga artiklar.

I denna uppsats har jag fokuserat på konflikter och lärande. Konflikter är för oss oftast kopplat till något negativt och på så sätt kan det kännas jobbigt att sättas i situationer som känns ohanterbara och obehagliga. Jag har i en litteraturstudie försökt analysera konflikter ur ett mer positivt perspektiv. Mitt syfte har varit att undersöka hur konflikter kan leda till lärande och utveckling. För att studien inte ska bli alltför omfattande har jag valt att begränsa min metod till att enbart analysera befintlig litteratur.

This Master?s thesis provides insights into adult women?s fictional reading within the conceptual phrase ?a good book?. Eight qualitative and semi-structured interviews were performed in order to examine the nature of response and perceived benefits. The collected data were analyzed by Louise M. Rosenblatt?s reception-oriented transactional theory of reading and the cognitive psychology-based model of reading developed within the joint Nordic project SKRIN.

Många organisationer idag har insett värdet av att styra genom värderingar. Trots seriösa försök är det ändå många som misslyckas. Vi har med denna uppsats haft som syfte att utifrån befintlig litteratur analysera innehållet i och villkoren för tänkbara processer, varigenom gemensamma värderingar kan skapas i en organisation. Vår studie har genomförts som en kvalitativ litteraturstudie. Hela uppsatsen är en analyserande process, vilket gör att ett kort svar på vårt syfte är omöjligt att ge.

This two years master's thesis examines the experience of children who read to a dog. The theoretical framework is inspired by sociocultural theory developed by Roger Säljö and the concept carnival inspired by Mikhail Bakhtin. The sociocultural theory has been chosen because it emphasizes the role of practice, instruments and communication in learning and the concept carnival has been chosen to analyze the experience of reading to a dog.The method used is qualitative interview and observation. A total of eight interviews and two observations when children read to a dog have been collected. One interview is with a teacher and seven interviews are with the children (six children participated and one child was interviewed twice).

Inger Edelfeldt (1956) and Bengt Martin (1933-2010) are two Swedish writers of different generations. Both of them did, between the years 1968 to 1983, write about adolescent men coming to terms with their homosexuality. Edelfeldt wrote two versions of the same story, with slight but significant differences, the main being different implied readers (adult versus adolescent). Bengt Martin wrote about three young homosexual characters: Joakim, Bengt and Bengt. The story about Joakim is presented as fiction but bears many resemblances with Martin?s autobiography.

Polismyndigheten har som organisation genomgått stora förändringar. För att möta dessa förändringar startade Polismyndigheten i Skåne 1997 ett arbetsrotationsprogram, vilket i kombination med andra kompetensutvecklings-åtgärder syftade till att skapa en lärande organisation. Tanken var att deltagarna i programmet skulle få nya kunskaper och att de skulle sprida sin kunskap och kompetens inom organisationen. Syfte med uppsatsen är att genom en målfri effekt-utvärdering studera vilka effekter som Arbetsrotations-programmet har inneburit för individen och för organisationen. För att besvara syftet har vi med en abduktiv ansats genomfört en kvalitativ empirisk undersökning med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer.

Vi har i vårt uppsatsarbete valt att studera de fackligt engagerade arbetsplatsombudens vardag ur ett pedagogiskt perspektiv. Då vår frågeställning är av explorativ art ansåg vi att en kvalitativ ansats var att föredra. Vi har genomfört ett antal semistrukturerade intervjuer med dels utbildningsansvariga vid två regionalavdelningar samt ett antal arbetsplatsombud. Vid genomförandet av intervjuerna åkte vi ut på arbetsplatserna för att underlätta för ombuden. Vi hade gjort en intervjuguide som vi skickade till de ombud som ville förbereda sig.

The aim of this study is to examine which factors in the receiving-country that have had an influence on three now adult unaccompanied refugee children. The method used in the study is qualitative interviews with the three above-mentioned participants. The results show that some factors are perceived as helpful, having a positive influence on the participants life while other factors are perceived as worsening, having a negative influence on their life. Depending on the context some factors such as age, the Swedish language and housing arrangements have had both positive and negative influences on their life. Positive factors are among other things: access to good treatment and support, help with processing trauma and bad mental health, help with understanding coherence, access to a social network, family reunification, resilience and other internal factors.

The break up of the family unit leads to new living arrangements and significant changes for children. This can be an extremely upsetting experience for a child, especially if the child is old enough to understand what is happening. New living arrangements can effect a childs fundamental sense of security as well as having consequences later on in life. The object of this research paper was to examine how a group of seven people (children from split families who are now adults), interpreted and described their childhood in relation to the living arrangements they grew up with after the breakdown of the family unit. The main question areas we have examined are: How have the interviewee's living arrangements during childhood affected their understanding of themselves today? In what way has the adult's present day lifestyle been influenced by the split up of the family that they grew up with - using their own words? How do the children from split families describe and interpret concepts such as family and marriage, based on their own experiences? Our research was conducted with the help of seven people from split families who are now adults and who experienced different types of split family arrangements as a child ? permanent residence with mother/father or alternate living with both parents.
