AbstractThere is a general perception that women are victims and men are the perpetrators of sexual offense. Female perpetrators of sexual crimes have been neglected in the research literature, because female sex offenders do not live up to preconceptions of female as motherly and caring. Females tend to be responsible for a very small portion of all crimes and are estimated to account for 1-2% of all sexual offenses. Theories use to discuss female sex offending include neutralization of behavior, mental health and feminist theory. The aim of the present study was to describe female sex offenders and examine the relationship between the perpetrator and the victim by analyzing court judgments.

The purpose with this essay was to study and analyze how gender roles is represented in six different mathematic books for children in the third and fourth grade and to see if the books counteract or reinforces traditional gender roles. It was also to see if the mathematic books follow the goals in the curriculum. I had four questions that I focused on while analyzing the mathematic books:What kind of activities does girls and boys like in the exercises in the mathematic books?What does girls and boys own in the exercises in the mathematic books?What does the relationships look like between different persons in the mathematic books?Based on the results from questions 1-3, do these six mathematic books try to follow the curriculum?The results of this study shows that girls often can be interested in things that usually is seen as either girlish or boyish, while boys mostly is interested in things that is seen as boyish. I got almost the same results when it comes to the second question, girls can buy things that is often seen as either girlish or boyish, while boys mostly buy things that is seen as boyish.

En relation är ett förhållande och en förbindelse mellan olika parter (saol.se, 2011) och nationalencyklopedin (2014) definierar en relation som ett förhållande mellan två eller flera fenomen, samt ett känslomässigt förhållande mellan två eller flera personer. Att bygga en nära relation med sina konsumenter klassas idag som en allt vanligare strategi bland företag (Bügel et al., 2011). Flera forskare har byggt på teorin om att engagemang, förtroende och tillfredsställelse är viktiga faktorer vid relationsskapande och flera av dem menar att de här faktorerna är viktiga för att skapa och bevara konsumentrelationer. I studien diskuteras det om de tre faktorerna är lika viktiga från konsumenternas perspektiv och även om det skiljer sig mellan två olika åldersgrupper samt kön. Segmentering visar att konsumenter har olika behov utifrån olika situationer (Szmigin & Bourne, 1998) och att ålder samt kön kan påverka en konsuments behov (Cole et al., 2008).Syftet med studien är att förklara ur ett konsumentperspektiv om engagemang, förtroende och tillfredsställelse kan vara viktiga när relationer mellan konsument och företag skapas, ur ett ålder- och könsperspektiv.Studien bygger på en deduktiv och en kvantitativ metod.

Bakgrund: Demenssjukdom orsakar sänkt kognitiv förmåga och den sjukes personlighet förändras.

Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka närståendes behov i omvårdnad av personer med demenssjukdom. Metod: Studien gjordes som en litteraturöversikt (n=15) med systematiskt tillvägagångssätt. Resultat: Studiens resultat visade att närstående hade egna behov som behövde tillgodoses, att få möjlighet att skapa en relation till vårdpersonal, att få tid att prata, att få delta i omvårdnaden samt att få information.

What is forgetfulness? How does it show? Is it a part of memory or can it be considered on its own? In the philosophical discourse forgetfulness is limited and the phenomenon is mostly portrayed as a pathological or obscure counterpart of memory. This portraying of forgetfulness can be seen as traditional way of describing it, but there is some philosophers who has spoken of forgetfulness in more fruitful ways. These ways are not to be interpreted as aspirations to decouple forgetfulness from memory, rather they are to be seen as attempts to interpret this relation on another basis. This basis has also led this essay towards an interpretation of forgetfulness' relation to truth.

This thesis deals with two types of agrarian remains in relation to settlement remains; clearance cairns, low stone walls and house terraces in the area of Northeastern Uppland and the area north of Lake Mälaren, during the middle Iron Age. The aim whit this thesis is trying to get a better understanding of the relation between agrarian and settlement remains in Uppland. Three places have been chosen where these three elements are present and they are interpreted through Richard Whites concept of middle ground but also Landesque capital. The three elements have shown to be expressed in different ways in all three sites. It is possible to see two areas with different traditions, but also to see two areas that closely interact with each other, this opens up for a new discussion around agrarian remains in both areas.

This essay follows a Media Teacher in her work as a coordinator and an artistic leader for a European project called Legalopoli concerning laws and ethics in a senior level school for 13-16 year-olds in Mora, Sweden. The students write film stories about how their characters have to make choices in ethical dilemma situations. Then the learners create interactive computer games together through practical film work. At the same time we can see how the educator also gets into difficult ethical situations, when she is working with the students. This forces her to self-reflection.
