The purpose of our study is to get more knowledge about how moral dilemmas affect social workers in their work. This because we find that a big part of social work involves ethic reflections and that is why we find it important for social workers to have knowledge about how they should and can think and act in these situations. Ethic statements exist for social workers to use in their work but we haven?t found any guidelines for concrete situations and that?s why we decided to study this area. Questions we want to answer are how do the social workers define moral dilemmas in social work? How do the social workers deal with moral dilemmas in their work? How do moral dilemmas affect social workers in their work? This is a qualitative study with interviews from seven social workers from one social service office although they are from different units.

Landscape architecture is a visual profession, but other senses also affect our interpretation of a place. Sounds can give us a lot of information about an environment, and they are often perceived as positive. Despite this, research about outdoor sounds most often focus on the reduction of unwanted sounds ? noise ? but the absence of noise does not result in a good soundscape. To accomplish this, sounds we appreciate are needed.

AbstractThe purpose of this study is to examine the process of resocialization for individuals who previously lived as criminals from an individual perspective. The research questions for the essay are: How do individuals in the study describe their process of resocialization? In which way does a support organization affect the process of resocialization for the individual? In which ways do the reactions from society affect the process of resocialization for the individual?To answer these research questions a qualitative method was chosen where six narrative interviews was conducted with men who previously lived as criminals but have been resocialized into society. These men are roughly between the ages of 30-60 years and are all members of a support organization for ex criminals.The results show that the process is divided in four stages and that the support organization has facilitated the process of resocialization of the respondents. Reactions from society both facilitates change using the help of different agencies can contribute, while negative reactions from other individuals makes change difficult.

Bakgrund: Feber drabbar barn någon eller några gånger om året, framförallt under småbarnstiden. En vanlig missuppfattning är att feber är ett potentiellt farligt tillstånd som kräver behandling. I motsats till detta har feber gynnsamma effekter när det kommer till kroppens bekämpande av infektioner. Kunskapsläget bland distriktssköterskor som ska tillhandahålla föräldrar rådgivning kring feber och febernedsättande läkemedel varierar, varför föräldrar riskerar att erhålla motstridiga och direkt felaktiga råd. Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva föräldrars kunskap rörande feber hos barn samt att belysa vårdpersonals attityder kring feberhantering.

Land management for food production is a fundamental human activity and one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century will be to increase the global food to accommodate a world growing to 10 billion or more people, while undergoing climate change. The increasing temperature and the current and projected increase in concentrations of CO2 lead to concern over possible impacts on agricultural pests. This assay is summarizing the knowledge of weeds in a changing climate in Sweden. Global warming and other climatic changes will affect the growth, phenology, and geographical distribution of weeds. The climate change will also affect the weed composition indirect by causing changes in the agriculture.

I vården möter vi många patienter som kommer utsättas för nålstick, både inom slutenvårdenoch primärvården. Många medicinska utredningar och behandlingar kräver blodprovstagningaroch perifera venkatetrar. En del patienter upplever dessa moment med en extrem rädsla ochkänsla av obehag, och kan påverka patientens upplevelse och skapa problem i framtida kontaktmed vården. Syftet med litteraturöversikten var att belysa vuxna patienters upplevelser viduttalad rädsla för nålstick, vilka faktorer som påverkar samt hur sjuksköterskan kan bemöta ochlindra dessa patienters oro och rädsla. Litteraturöversikten är baserad på vetenskapliga artiklarfunna i tidsskrifter.

In the year 1783 a fissure eruption from Laki in the southern part of Iceland produced a large amount of volcanic gases during a period of eight months. The volcanic gases and aerosols spread across the northern hem sphere due to ideal weather conditions and had a substantial impact on the environment, human health and also climate effects. This, so called dry fog, caused severe health problems, which led to death casualties, killing animals, crops and other vegetation. The consequence was a widespread famine which was aggravated by a hard and long winter in 1783/84. Analysis shows that the Icelandic volcanoes are the primary risk to produce dry fog that can affect Sweden.

This thesis examines how to improve the exhibition of products within retail for clothes and gift articles. The purpose is to investigate and test how light sources and different directions of light affect how the products are perceived regarding their exhibition. Our question formulations are:To what degree does the level of light in combination with the background of the interior design of a shop affect whether a product is perceived more or less attractive?What can we recommend to make the exhibition of products more attractive? From our observations shops nowadays have relatively high levels of light when they expose products on vertical areas. We have looked on the recommendation from ?Energimyndigheten? in order to see what they think is important when designing retail lightening.
