This master's thesis deals with the interest in comics among students at the social science programme in an upper secondary school. The history of comics and the reading habits of comics have also been examined. For the completion of this study 54 students, 19 boys and 35 girls, took part in a questionnaire. The results of this statistical survey shows that the department of comics at Malmö city public library plays an insignificant role concerning the interest and reading of comics for the students. The main readings of comics for the students are in the daily paper, which resembles reading habits of adults.

Swedish studies have shown that more people than expected have problems with leg ulcers and that the yearly cost for treatment per patient is approximately 26 500kr. Since the elderly population is on the rise, there is a need to highlight this growing problem, to make sure that proper assessment tools are used and to improve the standard of care given to patients with leg ulcers. The aim was to show what a difference the nurse can make to patients with leg ulcers. With all types of wounds it is imperative to establish if there is any underlying reasons since certain illnesses can cause more wounds or delay the healing process. The doctor is responsible for making the diagnosis and to prescribe the correct treatment whereas the nurse?s responsibility is for the nursing care and its documentation.

The precise questions are:? Which are the relevant contributions for the balance of power from a perspective of juridification in the new EU-treaty?? What impacts do those contributions have on the so called ?European federalism??The theoretical perspective of this study is rooted in the concept of federalism with special emphasizes on constitution and sovereignty as well as a part about the process of juridification. Along with the presented analytical model consisting of a horizontal and vertical division of power, the empirical material is presented with focus on the new EU-treaty about a constitution for Europe and the European Court of Justice.

Abstract.

Uppsatsen är till formen en reflekterande vetenskaplig essä som undersöker akutsjuksköterskans yrkespraktik. Den egna erfarenheten gestaltad i form av en berättelse från ett arbetspass på sjukhuset är i fokus och undersökningen tar sitt avstamp i den. Det som belyses är de olika kunskapsformer som akutsjuksköterskan lutar sig mot när hon använder sin "kliniska blick"och hur de samverkar och är beroende av varandra. Kunskapsformerna är hämtade från Aristoteles kunskapsbegrepp och stort utrymme ges till den praktiska kunskapen och den praktiska klokheten, som av Aristoteles benämndes fronesis. Texten undersöker också det för sjuksköterskan centrala begreppet omvårdnad utifrån den egna erfarenheten.

SAMMANFATTNINGBakgrund: Diabetes är en sjukdom, där patienten med diabetes dagligen fattar beslut gällande sin sjukdom. Genom empowerment kan patienten upptäcka och använda sin egen inneboende förmåga att kontrollera sin diabetes, vilket skapar förutsättningar för en mer individanpassad egenvård.Syfte: Litteraturstudiens syfte var att beskriva hur empowerment kan främjas i omvårdnaden av den vuxna patienten med diabetes.Metod: Den metod som användes var en systematisk litteraturstudie med beskrivande design. Sökningar har gjorts i databaserna Cinahl, Medline och Medline PubMed, med sökorden diabetes, empowerment, nursing och caring.Resultat: För att arbeta empowermentfrämjande krävs en förändring av sjuksköterskans yrkesroll där också patientens egen kunskap om att leva med diabetes erkänns. Att vara en god lyssnare, förmedla kunskap om diabetessjukdomen, vara öppen och lyhörd för varje patients individuella behov och uppmuntra patienten att själv finna lösningar på egenvårdsproblem är viktiga delar för sjuksköterskan och övrig sjukvårdspersonal att arbeta med.Slutsats: För att sjuksköterskans yrkesroll ska kunna förändras och nya arbetsmetoder utvecklas är tid, stöd, utbildning och handledning till både sjuksköterskorna själva och den övriga personalen som arbetar runt patienten av betydelse..

Gränssnitt finns överallt i vår vardag. Du finner dem i hemmet, i biblioteket, i affären, på tågstationen och till och med i din ficka. Hur kan utvecklingen av ett gränssnitt se ut och vad kan göras för att effektivisera utvecklingen? Ett gränssnitt kan alltid utvecklas och bli bättre. En gräns måste emellertid sättas för när gränssnittet är redo att komma ut på marknaden.

Demenssjukdomar drabbar i allt högre grad en åldrande population. Med detta följer ett antal komplikationer och problemskapande beteenden som påverkar omvårdnaden. Syftet var att undersöka på vilket sätt olika typer av musik kan ha en positiv effekt på demenspatienter och därmed underlätta och förbättra omvårdnadsarbetet. Metoden som valdes var en litteraturstudie. Som teoretisk referensram valdes Katie Erikssons omvårdnadsteori.

Predatory pricing is one of the most frequently discussed topics in competition law and should be considered both from a legal and economic perspective. The concept of predatory pricing can bedescribed as a situation where a company is pricing at a level that, according to the assessment theories, is unreasonably low. The problems with this type of conduct arises when the low prices hinder competition. A company which uses predatory pricing will likely deter rivals entry to the market or drive the existing ones out of it. In the long run, the effects on competition will likely be higher prices which will hurt customers and consumers as well as competition.

Our purpose is to analyse three different epistemological discourses that exist in the social practice, Library and Information Science LIS, using the strategy for interpretation from the mimesis model by Paul Ricoeur and the terms from the critical discourse analysis by Norman Fairclough. The aim is also to explore there different views of knowledge organisation. We review previous research involving epistemology, knowledge organisation and discourse analysis in LIS. These show that there are many different epistemological standpoints and that later research has shown a more critical and sceptical state of knowledge organisation than earlier traditional positivist ideals. Discourse analysis is described as an important theory and method in LIS.

Swedish contract law is based on the main principle of freedom of contract, which means that a contract is built on a voluntary agreement of both parties. There are exceptions from the principle of freedom of contract. In some instances a party is obliged to contract (kontraheringsplikt), which also is the subject for this paper. Kontraheringsplikt can be described as an obligation for one of the parts in a relation to come to an agreement under normal circumstances with everyone who ask for it. The cases of kontraheringsplikt are rather different.
