Syftet med studien är att undersöka och problematisera hur Sida och Afrikagrupperna arbetar med hiv och aids i Sydafrika utifrån den postkoloniala kritik som riktats mot denna typ av arbete. Fokus ligger på de problem och dilemman som finns i utvecklingssamarbetet med Sydafrika. För att få en djupare förståelse och ytterligare ett perspektiv sammanför vi den postkoloniala teorin med teorier om hälsa. I det postkoloniala kapitlet behandlas bland andra Maria Eriksson Baaz och Pal Ahluwalias teorier om hur kolonialismen har skapat strukturer som påverkar Afrikabilden både i västvärlden och i Afrika idag. I teorin om hälsa utgår vi ifrån bland andra Deborah Lupton som menar att folkhälsa har en stark inverkan på politiska och sociala strukturer som fungerar som ett moraliserande system och påverkar hur vi ser på oss själva.

Research in the FMCG sector shows that in-store atmosphere has a great impact on customer attitude and behavior. Despite this, there is a lack of knowledge regarding how the atmosphere influences the customer in a fashion store setting. The purpose with this paper is to investigate if and how visible in-store atmospherics influence customer attitude and behavior in a fashion store setting. We also investigate if behavior and attitude is affected by the customer's expertise and the purpose of the visit. The study takes place in two different fashion stores within the same fashion chain.

Small scale internal consumer tests provide a company with a cheap way to get valuable information regarding their products advantages and flaws. Therefore the demand for possibilities to do this kind of test has increased. This report is part of a new sensory project at Unilever. It presents a method for sensory comparison of the company?s own products with the corresponding competitor products.

The horse has been domesticated for several thousand years. It has gone from being used primarily for food and transportation, to become one of the most popular pets in Sweden. With over 150,000 practitioners, horseback riding is one of the biggest sports in Sweden and there is a variety of specializations to choose from. One orientation is western riding which is a broad sport with several disciplines where most originate in cattle work and other ranch tasks. Western riding is a growing sport in Sweden with an increasing number of practitioners and with many different organizations and associations, it is important that the correct knowledge of the equipment used is disseminated. Artificial aids are available in a variety of designs and the most common variants used by western riders in Sweden is draw reins or some forms of martingale.

The aiming with this project is to find out if a small scale chicken production can be profitable, from day-old chicks to a processed smoked product out to stores and consumers. The products will not be available in the stores all the time because we will give the customers quality rather than quantity, so when the product can?t be found in the stores the customers will ask for it. The conclusion I found out is that it might be hard to raise chickens in these scale from an economic point of view the costs for transport, logistics, slaughter and marketing are to high..

Wood for commercial use is harvested from forests using forest machines like harvesters which folds, branches and cuts trees and forwarders which transports logs to a landing area for further transport to a processing facility. Future forest machines have to be much gentler to the machine operators and forest soil than today's machines. Hence new machine solutions must be developed and tested. A practical way is to develop a physical scale model which can be used as a test-bed to incorporate different types of solutions for suspensions, cabin damping, tires and tracks, crane and overall architecture. The aim of this project was to develop such a 1:5 scale model of a forest machine, named as ?Skogbil.A scaling strategy was employed to arrive at important scale dimensions and specifications ofSkogbil which would be comparable to the full scale model.

We studied the initial process of reading, with a focus on typography, whether it ispossible to increase childrens lust to read in the age six to seven years old, byadjusting the typography and graphic design. We conduct this study through qualitative and quantitative studies, mainlyinterviews with a main focus on children in this particular age were used. In additionto the interviews a questioniare were sent out to a selection of students. The studyalso contained an interview with a pedagogue as well as studies of the current andexisting textbooks and teaching aids that is used on the school we are looking into.During the study we consulted educated pedagogues to get an understanding of thechildren and their learning and to be able to approach them in a suitable way.The theories we have been using were mainly from a typographic point of view.Other areas we explored were theories about reading processes. This study showedthat every child needs a method that is suitable for them and that the materialprovided today is typographically inconsistent. The childrens and teachers needs andwishes in typography did not correspond with the current teaching aids design. From this study the followning points were made about how to design a textbook forchildren in the first grade:? The typeface should be a sans serif.? The point size should be bigger than 12 points.? Text should be aligned to the left.? Sentences should be short without becoming abstract.? To maintain focus on the text the layout should be simple and unbarked.? The format should be designed after the pourpose of the publication, forexample when it is a complement to the textbook, the format should be of suchcharacter that it is easy for the children to bring home.? There should be a typographical consistency through all of the materialsprovided to the children..

Public opinion has increasingly become a political force in the European integration process. At present, it appears that the people?s attitude towards the European integration is relatively skeptical. How can we expect that the attitude towards European integration will evolve in the future? This paper tests the extent to which diffusion theory can serve as a model to explain the development of attitudes to European integration policy in Sweden from 1999 until 2009.

The study is ethnographic and the collected material consists of questionnaires, interviews andconducted practical exercises.

I have in this essay focused on the attitude towards the medieval muslims in swedish textbooks, in the subject of history from the years between 1954 and 2012. I have made an analysis on the discourse in the books and what they says about the muslims who lived before 1500 AD. The theory I have is a Postcolonial one from the authors Edward Said, Ania Loomba and Leela Gandhi. I have also analyzed the rhetorics the authors have used in every textbook. The results I have identified is that the attitude towards the muslims have changed during the years, from a generalizing view that says that the muslims were driven by the religion and that they were different from the Christian European society that existed during the same time.

Bakgrund: Det lever cirka 35.3 miljoner människor med HIV i världen. HIV kan inte smitta via vardaglig kontakt som handskakningar, men kan smitta via blod, sexuell kontakt och bröstmjölk. Symtom kan exempelvis vara svullna lymfkörtlar som konsekvens av nedsatt immunförsvar. Patienter har upplevt att sjuksköterskor varit rädda för att bli smittade av HIV och sjuksköterskor har därför använt överdrivna försiktighetsåtgärder. Sjuksköterskor bär med sig personliga och professionella föreställningar om hälsa/sjukdom, dessa påverkar hur de vårdar patienter.

 HIV (humant immunbristvirus) är en sjukdom som bryter ned kroppens immunförsvar och utan bromsmedicin är risken stor att drabbas av den sekundära fasen, AIDS. Sjukdomen, som globalt innefattar cirka 33 miljoner virusbärare, har inget botemedel, vilket leder till att många människor avlider av sjukdomen. Eftersom det finns så många HIV-smittade människor, är sannolikheten stor att sjukvårdspersonalen möter dessa patienter inom de olika delarna av sjukvården. Förståelsen för hur dessa patienter upplever en vårdrelation med sjukvårdspersonal är viktig för att kunna ge dessa patienter en god vård.Syftet med studien är att beskriva HIV/AIDS-positiva patienters upplevelser av vårdrelationen med sjukvårdspersonal. I detta examensarbete inom vårdvetenskap gjordes en systematisk litteraturstudie efter Evans (2002) modell, där vetenskapliga artiklar av kvalitativ design analyseras vilket är en metod för att finna ny kunskap som besvarar syftet.

Hiv/aids är i dagsläget en ökande epidemi som drabbar hela världen. Homosexualitet har länge förknippats med sjukdomen vilket med stor sannolikhet bidragit till fördomar och negativa attityder till denna redan utsatta minoritet. Syftet med examensarbetet var att genom en systematisk litteraturstudie undersöka vårdpersonalens kunskaper om och attityder till hiv-positiva homosexuella. Ytterligare ett syfte var att undersöka om attityder kunde skiljas åt beroende på kategorier av vårdpersonal vilket avser all personal inom vården samt sjuksköterske- och undersköterskestuderande. De viktigaste resultaten som framkom i studien var att de generella attityderna till hiv-positiva homosexuella övervägande var positiva och att de negativa attityderna till hiv/aids och homosexualitet ter sig kunna bero på en bristande kunskap och erfarenhet.
