Läsningens goda kretslopp: En studie av hemmets, skolans och skolbibliotekets betydelse för barns läsning

The aim of this master thesis is to investigate and illustrate the measures that parents, teachers and school librarians can take in order to influence childrens reading, and, more importantly, how these attempts performed by the adults in the childs environment affect the reading habits of the child. The methods used include qualitative interviews, undertaken with eight students/children, their teacher and a school librarian, and an observation of a book talk in the studied class. Considering that no interviews have been executed with the parents, the results presented regarding the parents prospects of encouraging childrens reading, are therefore to be seen from the perspective of the children, and analysed as such. Three different theories have been employed in order to elucidate the results of the study; Bourdieus theory about the cultural capital transmitted from parent to child; Aidan Chambers theory on the book talk as promoting reading; and Louise Limbergs theory on the levels of the school library and its consequent prognosis of working to promote reading. The results of the study concur with Bourdieus theory, in that the childrens reading habits in most cases seem to have been affected by the amount of involvement that the parents have given to promote their reading.

Butiksdemonstrationens mentala och beteendemässiga påverkan: - Ett fältexperiment som undersöker butiksdemonstrationens möjligheter att påverka konsumenten i butiksmiljön

The knowledge development regarding in-store marketing has shown that influencing a consumer in a store setting is a powerful tool to change the consumer?s buying patterns. However, the store as a marketing channel lacks, in many ways, conducted academic research and according to marketing theory investments into in-store marketing tend to be taken without advanced marketing consideration. As a consequence, we have chosen to generate new insights into the field of in-store marketing by studying in-store demonstrations both from a behavioral and a mental dimension. Furthermore, we have also chosen to study how different consumers with different degree of loyalty and buying patterns are influenced by an in-store demonstration.This study aimed to obtain a better understanding of in-store demonstrations through breaking down the demonstration into its core elements and from these elements construct different types of demonstrations.

Elektroniskt diskussionsforum som ny kommunikationskanal : Lokal agenda 21 i Öresundsregionen

Jag studerade förväntningarna på elektroniska diskussionsforum som ny kommunikationskanal i organisationen Lokal Agenda 21 i Öresundsregionen, kallad Öresund 21. Organisationen är ett treårigt EU-projekt med representanter från sex svenska och sju danska kommuner vars syfte är att främja en hållbar utveckling i kommunerna med fokus på plan- och beslutsprocesser, drift, i kontakten med kommunmedborgarna samt i utveckling av indikatorer för hållbar utveckling. Empiriskt material från undersökningsenheten har inhämtats genom diskussioner i fokusgrupper samt en enkät.Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera hur en organisation som startar upp ett elektroniskt diskussionsforum kan skapa förutsättningar för att deltagarna aktivt använder kommunikationskanalen. Utifrån detta analyserar jag vilka förväntningar deltagare från undersökningsenheter har i form av drivkrafter och hinder för att delta i elektroniska diskussionsforum. I analysen utgår jag ifrån undersökningar av praktikgemenskaper, kunskapsnätverk samt intranät och börjar därför genomgången med att definiera undersökningsenheten i relation till dessa begrepp.I studien av Öresund 21 kom jag fram till att deltagarna i organisationen förväntar sig uppleva drivkrafter och hinder för att delta i elektroniska diskussionsforum som stämmer väl överens med vad tidigare studier har visat.

Applicerbarheten av produktanpassade supply chain-strategier inom stålindustrin : En fallstudie

AbstractThis study aims to investigate the applicability of well-recognized supply chain strategies based on product characteristics. Choosing the right supply chain strategy can be the difference between winner and loser in today?s competitive climate and science offers several recommendations as to which aspects that should be considered. Fisher (1997) and Christopher and Towill (2002) suggest that supply chain strategies should be based on what kind of product the company is handling and that, in order to know which strategy is the most appropriate, the products must be categorized. Some criteria developed for the categorization are lead time, forecast in demand and profit margin.

Förskolepedagogers uppfattningar om leken som redskap för barns språkutveckling : en observations- och intervjustudie

The value of a good reputation for organizations is increasing today as consumers and citizens become more aware of brands. If a crisis hits an organization, there is now more to lose than before concerning reputation. Therefore the organization?s communication strategies must be developed to sustain the organization?s reputation during and after a crisis.In the field of crisis communication there are two distinguished theories which concern what an organization with help from crisis communication should do to undergo a crisis without losing its reputation. These theories are image repair theory and situational crisis communication theory (SCCT).

Medverkan: lokalt engagemang för ett hållbart samhälle

Medverkan som en väg till hållbart samhälle är centralt i Agenda 21. En av riktningslinjerna i det lokala Agenda 21-arbetet är att det ska säkras ett nedifrån- och upp-perspektiv, med bred medverkan från invånarna. En reell medverkan betyder att människor aktivt deltar i alla faser och processer som berör deras lokalmiljö, från planering till förvaltning. Denna rapport baserar sig på antagandet att lokalt engagemang är en grundläggande förutsättning för medverkan. Den centrala frågeställningen är att finna vad som påverkar och stärker lokalt engagemang.

Styrningens vindlingar: substitutionsbehandlingens premisser

For over 40 years, there's been a debate in Sweden of whether it's good or bad with maintenance therapy for heroin addicts. This method is far more acknowledged in other parts of Europe and in USA. The aim of this paper was to explore how public actors manifest their thoughts concerning the subject of the substitution program in Sweden. This approach includes the complex of problems that can be found in statements and the discourses that these operators stand for and support. In my analysis the philosophical thread was principally based on Michael Foucault ideas, but also on other theories related to social constructionism.

Uppbyggnad och reglering av en pumpstation till ett injektionssystem

I was assigned to the thesis as part of a project GMA AB (Ground Machinery Applications AB) is running. The project aims to develop a new method for injection of drilled holes in rock walls. Currently, the injections usually involve cement but the basic idea of the project is to replace cement with a supplement called Silica sol.Silica sol is known as a gelling liquid. The gel time is controlled by a mixing of saline. Depending on the amount saline that gets mixed in, the gel time varies.

Individers agerande vid investerings- och avyttringsbeslut i aktier - en analys av regret theorys giltighet

Resultaten av vår undersökning visar på att vi generellt sett inte kan säga om individuella investerare agerar enligt regret theory eller inte. En del resultat tyder dock på att vissa effekter inom teorin är applicerbar på individuella investerare. Vi kan urskilja trender som tyder på att individen beter sig på ett visst sett och resonerat kring varför han beter sig så. Individen föredrar alltid det säkra alternativet om förluster eller stora vinster står på spel. Om skillnaden i säkerhet är väldigt liten försummar han den.
