Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva behov av information och stöd hos kvinnor med bröstcancer. Metoden som användes var en litteraturstudie och inkluderade både kvalitativa och kvantitativa artiklar. Tio studier inkluderades och resultatet presenterades i tre huvudkategorier: Information, stöd och sjuksköterskans uppfattning om behov av information och stöd, detta behov måste identifieras individuellt efter varje kvinna med bröstcancer. Dessa kvinnor uppskattade information om möjligheten att bli botad, behandlingsalternativ samt recidiv. Yngre kvinnor hade större behov av information om sexualitet än äldre.

Arbetsminnet består av flera komponenter, där den fonologiska loopens akustiska och artikulatoriska system samverkar då Auditiv information tas emot och bearbetas. Testning av loopens funktion kan ske genom undersökning av arbetsminnesspannet vid nonordsrepetition. Förmågan att repetera nonord kan berätta något om både barns och vuxnas språkliga utveckling och förmåga. Motoriska begränsningar kan hindra hand- och artikulationsförmågan. Hypoteserna är att: Begränsningarna borde påverka prestationen vid arbetsminnesspanntestning, i form av en längre tidsåtgång vid återgivning av en nonordssekvens på grund av den handmotoriska begränsningen, samt hindrandet av det artikulatoriska undersystemet till den fonologiska loopen genom den finmotoriska begränsningen.

The aim of this master thesis is to study how teachers in adult education view the phenomenon of information seeking in education. We have interviewed adult education teachers, and the method used when working with the data was phenomenography. We found three categories in our material: 1. Information seeking is the student?s responsibility; 2.

The information market is constantly changing. With new and improved information technology more people get access to more information faster. However, the number of people educated to handle information also increases. Business intelligence has for a long time been a well-known tool for companies to be competitive. Because of the increased access to information the competition between companies has intensified and more people have become aware of the advantages of business intelligence and how it can help them compete.

Ridlärarens yrkesroll är att undervisa ryttare och öka deras kunskap inom ridkonsten. Vanligtvis är det sex till tolv elever i en ridgrupp, vilket ställer stora krav på ridläraren att nå fram med sitt budskap till varje enskild individ. Varje ryttare har sin individuella lärstil samt egna tidigare färdigheter och erfarenheter. För att varje ryttare skall kunna utvecklas krävs det att ridläraren behärskar en pedagogik som främjar den visuella ryttaren, den auditiva ryttaren och den kinestetiska och/eller taktila ryttaren. Syftet i detta arbete är att dokumentera hur demonstrationer i hoppning kan genomföras med en tydlig röd tråd och en genomtänkt progression samt att utvärdera studenternas syn på undervisningsformens pedagogiska värde kopplat till studentens lärstil.

AbstractDen här studien handlar om lärstilar. Lärstilar är en pedagogisk teori om hur en individ tar till sig nytt och svårt material. Varje individ har sitt unika sätt att ta in, bearbeta och minnas det de lär sig. Lärstilar bygger på individens starka sidor, på vad de kan och vad de är bra på. Jag har utgått från Dunns lärstilsmodell och fokuserat på de fyra sinnespreferenserna; auditiv, visuell, taktil och kinestetisk.

The purpose of this study is to investigate information seeking habits among young persons with mild mental disability. We wanted to know how they seek information in everyday life, barriers they experience when seeking information and also if they consider the library to be a source of information.The theoretical background of this study is based on the works of T. D. Wilson and Michael Buckland. Wilson?s model of information seeking behavior and seeking information was used as a tool analyzing the results from the interviews.

The aim of this master?s thesis is to examine the information needs in the character subjects of the students at a vocationally oriented program in the Swedish upper secondary school. I also examine from which sources the students get the information. I want to create a wider understanding of information seeking processes at a vocationally oriented programme. The main focus is the students? own thoughts and opinions about their information needs and information seeking processes.

The purpose of this Bachelor?s thesis is to examine university librarians? perceptions of information literacy, of students? information literacy and of education in information literacy. The focus is on how they perceive the students? information literacy development during their university studies. Also of interest in this study is how librarians think that their teaching in information literacy should be included in the students? other courses. Three librarians at a Swedish university library were interviewed using qualitative interviews.

Some word processing programs save information that not all users of the program are aware of. This information consists of a number of things. Example of that is who the writer of the document is, the time it took to write it and where on the computer the document is saved. Text that has been changed or removedcan also be saved. This information is not shown in the program and the user will therefore not be aware of its existence.

This thesis examines the ideological implications of an emerging shift in human rights-issues regarding information. As Intellectual Property becomes increasingly important to the economy of developed nations previously commonly owned or unprotected information runs a real risk of becoming privatized. The World Trade Organization and its binding agreements GATS and TRIPS are subjected to a critical ideology-analysis, with special efforts to elucidate possible effects on the public service realm and its commitment as provider of free information as a human right. The result suggests that not only does a threat to information as such a right exist, but that its ideological basis however seemingly rooted in a liberal/neoliberal context actually in its express views on information deviates from liberal/neoliberal theory in many ways, and that there are theoretical inconsistencies in that same ideology..

The purpose of this Master thesis is to examine and describe dog breeders? information activities. Questions posed in this study are:? What are the information needs of dog breeders?? How does the dog breeder seek and use information?? How can the relationship between serious leisure and information activities be described?The theoretical framework consists of the sociologist Robert A Stebbins? theory about serious leisure. The study is based on a qualitative methodology.

Intranets has been marketing as the tool for solving the organisations information problems. My interest is to see how an intranet works in an organisation. This study was an investigation about the use of EkaForum, the intranet of Eka Chemicals, at the Rollsbo division. The study aimed to evaluate how EkaForum is being used, firstly as a transmitter of information and secondly as a communication tool for the organisation. The study was constructed as a quantity survey based on a questionnaire with 24 questions and was sent out to the staff of Rollsbo division.

During the last decades the evolution of information technology and the increasing ability to access information have been discussed in many ways. In the beginning the focus was on the technology but now the discussion is more and more about the use of information and how to develop knowledge out of it. There is an ongoing discussion about the difference between knowledge and information. The subject of this Master s thesis is to find out if and how the Swedish elementary school has written into its mission statements to help the pupils to become information literate. For this purpose I have examined literature about information literacy and pedagogic as well as legislation and other documents that control how the Swedish elementary schools work.

The aim of this study is to examine present forms of interaction between Child Welfare Clinics (Barnavårdscentraler, BVC), and libraries. The study departs from the user?s perspective, i.e. how the parents evaluate the information they are given about the library and its resources to provide information they want in their present and new situation. In two local communities the survey looks into how parents of babies are informed about the library in meetings arranged as part of the information and support program provided by BVC.
