Nya vägar i en föränderlig tid En fallstudie av ett folkbiblioteks bemötande av idén om utkontraktering av urvals- och inköpsfunktionen

Abstract: In this Master's thesis our aim is to study the situation and process regarding the decision to use outsourcing of the media acquisition function in a Swedish public library. By using New institutional theory, focusing on ways of organising and values in the organisation we are able to analyse this phenomenon. Skot-Hansens theory about three different culture political argumentation schemes, humanistic, sociological and instrumental (or market oriented), gives us the opportunity to place statements and facts into a functional theoretical context. The market oriented scheme is further clarified with the concept of New Public Management. The role of values in the institution, regarding aims and goals is stressed.

Patientupplevelser i samband med MR-undersökning

Introduktion: MR-undersökningen är en teknik som blivit alltmer vanligt inom medicinsk diagnostik. Trots att MR-tekniken är en bra metod för att upptäcka patologi och skador kan MR-undersökningen vara associerad med rädsla, oro och ångest hos patienter. Många gånger har patienter liten kunskap om undersökningsprocessen. Informationskällor kan vara vänner eller anhöriga och genom deras erfarenheter skapar patienter egna idéer och uppfattningar om MR-undersökningen. Mötet mellan röntgensjuksköterskan och patienten är kort, vilket gör att röntgensjuksköterskans omhändertagande av patienter kan vara avgörande för patientens upplevelse av trygghet och välbefinnande.

Är en schimpans bättre på att skapa avkastning än en professionell fondförvaltare? : En jämförande studie om historisk avkastning av förvaltade fonder och slumpmässigt genererade portföljer

Background: Investors have several options to choose from when the goal is to achieve the highest yield at the lowest cost and risk. Stocks are a common investment options, but is also associated with risks. Portfolios are usually constructed with several different assets to reduce the unsystematic risk of investment. Funds are similar to composite stock portfolios, the big difference is that they dealt with in their entirety and investors may not affect the fund's content. The problem remains that whether you choose stocks or mutual funds there is still uncertainty as to how the future will unfold.

Förändringens tider i fastighetsbranschen : En studie på utvecklingen före och efter finanskrisen 2008

Background and problem: The financial crisis 2008-2009 came out from an over-optimism among those who took the real estate loans in the U.S., and especially so-called subprime loans. After the 2008 financial crisis, it has become a global uncertainty in the financial market with low growth, and even financial crises in the euro countries have appeared. The real estate industry is a capital-intensive industry where companies have a high leverage to implement their investment. This means they have a larger proportion of debt relative to equity than companies in other industries. As investments require a lot of capital, real estate companies become dependent on having a working relationship with both the banks and the capital market.

Pedagogisk intervention vid audiologisk rehabilitering med hjälp av en textbok. En randomiserad kontrollerad studie.

Hearing is considered to be the most important sense for the communication between people. Several studies have shown that hearing loss can lead to deterioration in quality of life, reduced social activities, feelings of alienation and hence the increasing incidence of depression symptoms.An early audiological rehabilitation is a prerequisite for proper communication among people with hearing loss. Knowledge has been shown to be of great importance and structured learning and individually targeted approach can be expected to facilitate the audiological rehabilitation.The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of an educational effort for people with hearing loss where the effort was made in the distance within the audiological rehabilitation and was followed-up by professional phone support, through a randomized controlled study.The study group consisted of 69 hearing aid users who were randomized by an independent person into two groups, an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group (n = 33) had access to the book "When the sounds are weaker - on hearing and hearing aids". The group received weekly topic-based information related to the different chapters of the book, in five rounds.

Det berättande spelet : En studie om berättande datorspel och dess filmatiseringar

A paranoid and shameful reading of Inger Christensens novel Azorno.The contagious feelings of paranoia and shame played a vital part in my first reading of the novel Azorno, written by the Danish poet Inger Christensen. In this essay, I?m letting those emotions direct the ?understanding? and analysis of the novel. In earlier research the focus has been to comprehend what the novel ?really is about?, and even though it has been mentioned that the form probably is a way to make the reader a visible constructer of  the novel?s ?meaning? the understanding has never been created by the affects that occurs during the reading.

Fosterdiagnostik vid MR-undersökningar - gravida kvinnors upplevleser och magnetkamerans påverkan på fostret.

Introduktion: Fosterdiagnostik med magnetkamerateknik (MR-teknik) har utvecklats mycket den senaste tiden och använts som en kompletterande metod till ultraljudsundersökning. Magnetkamera ger ingen joniserande strålning till patienterna, samt ger en mycket mer detaljerad bildinformation än vad andra metoder gör. I samband med MR kan de gravida kvinnorna uppleva olika psykiska påfrestningar genom både själva MR-undersökningen och oro för barnets hälsa. Även om MR-fosterdiagnostiken anses vara en säker undersökningsmetod för fostret föreligger det ändå en ovisshet angående de effekter som kan förekomma. Syfte: Syftet med examensarbetet är att genom publicerad forskning få kunskap som kan utveckla röntgensjuksköterskans möjlighet att ge optimalt stöd och information till gravida kvinnor vid fosterdiagnostik med MR-teknik utifrån följande aspekter: 1.

Smärta i samband med benmärgsprovtagning

Introduktion: Den kliniska erfarenheten bland vårdpersonal är att benmärgsprovtagning för många patienter kan vara en smärtsam procedur. Idag saknas tillräcklig kunskap om hur patienter som genomgår benmärgsprov upplever smärta och hur deras smärtupplevelse ser ut. Vi känner inte heller till om det finns bakomliggande faktorer av betydelse som ökar patientens risk att erfara smärta vid benmärgsprovtagning. Syftet med denna prospektiva studie var att kartlägga förekomst och intensitet av smärta hos vuxna individer som genomgår benmärgsprovtagning, samt faktorer som är relaterade till smärtupplevelsen vid benmärgsprovtagning. Metod: Tvåhundratrettiosex vuxna individer (m/k=126/110, median-ålder 62 år, intervall 20-89 år) planerade för benmärgsprov inkluderades i studien.

Förändring av radiocesiumtillståndet i jordbruksgrödor i Gävleborgs, Västmanlands och Uppsala län efter Tjernobylolyckan samt en fallstudie med stallbalansberäkningar på en mjölkgård :

Several radioactive nuclides were deposited in Sweden after the Chernobyl accident in 1986. The greatest attention was given to 137Cs because of its relative long physical half life of about 30 years. 137Cs will be present in nature for more than 100 years before it has vanished completely. When radiocaesium decays to a stable end product ionizing radiation is emitted, which can cause cancer in humans that has been exposed to a high radiation dose. Radiocaesium behaves like potassium and is easily taken up into biological systems.
