PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to assess whether the overreaction found in ?Does the Stock Market Overreact?? by DeBondt and Thaler still persists today, and by equivalence test if a trading strategy based upon these assumptions would generate abnormal returns. MethodThe research has been carried out by studies of the stocks that for a prior period of one year has over or underperformed their benchmark. The stocks used in my study are all part of S&P500 index, and the period of study runs from three to five overlapping years over the last twenty years. ResultsMy tests indicate that the type of overreaction proposed by DeBondt & Thaler still is present, at least considering the stocks that during the formation period were winners..

The Golden Rule is to be found in many of the world?s religions and is also reflected in secular society.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka om man kan förutspå köp- och säljsignaler genom glidande medelvärde och volatilitet pa? den svenska aktiemarknaden.Denna studie utgår från en deduktiv ansats som genomförs med den kvantitativa metoden. Glidande medelvärde och volatilitet kombineras fo?r att visa de köp- och säljsignaler som uppstår mellan perioden 2007 till 2010.Studien baseras på vetenskapliga studier om glidande medelvärde och volatilitet. Den inkluderar även Radom Walk, Den effektiva marknadshypotesen och Behavioral finance.Empirin visar att kombinationen av glidande medelvärde och volatilitet ger hög avkastning i de flesta fallen.I studien framgår det att teknisk analys kan användas som ett analysverktyg vid aktiehandeln.

Bakgrund Den psykiska oh?lsan i Sverige har ?kat under 2000-talet och v?rdresurserna f?r att behandla psykisk oh?lsa minskar genom nedsk?rningar inom v?rden p? grund av l?gkonjunktur och begr?nsningar av statliga medel. Detta s?tter stora krav p? att den psykiatriska v?rden som ges ska kunna behandla s? m?nga som m?jligt med s? f? medel som m?jligt. Tidigare forskning har identifierat flera f?rdelar och positiva h?lsoeffekter med naturbaserade interventioner.

High school students of today frequently come into contact with the English language throughradio and television.

The purpose of this thesis was to examine if there where fallacies in the design solutions for the business system IFS Applications from a user perspective, and if so, correct these from a cognitive science approach.Data collection consisted of three main portions. These where; workshop, individual interviews and observations. The collected data was analyzed and resulted in identification of two main areas in the application that where found lacking.The result of the study showed that the usability for processing large amounts of data and the lack of customization where the main flaws in the application. Two low fidelity prototypes where created with the purpose of rectifying the underlying flawed design solutions that where identified from the collected data..

Multipel skleros (MS) är en kronisk immunologisk sjukdom som slår på centrala nervsystemet (CNS) och kan leda till minskad neurologisk funktion. I Sverige finns 17 500 personer som fått en MS-diagnos. Den vanligaste åldern för insjuknande är 20-40 år och sjukdomen är dubbelt så vanlig bland kvinnor som bland män. Om patienterna inte får behandling finns risk för kraftiga funktionsnedsättningar. Syftet med detta arbete var att undersöka effekten och säkerheten med det perorala läkemedlet fingolimod jämfört med intravenös behandling med natalizumab vid MS.

Oxytocin is today widely spoken of as a "feel good" hormone. Recent research has increased interest in the hormone and its role in social and sexual interactions, as well as its importance for complex behavioral patterns. There is evidence that oxytocin is released during physical contact and is said to suppress anxiety and stress. In animals and humans, oxytocin, which is a neuropeptide and likewise a hormone, is necessary for parturition and lactation. Synthesis of oxytocin occurs in brain neurons and in specific organs involved in reproduction.

Bakgrund: Företag utan vinst, historia och jämförelseobjekt är svåra att värdera med traditionella värderingsmetoder. Debatten kring detta problem har den senaste tiden varit livlig, inte minst gällande internetföretag. Syfte: Identifiera de mekanismer som i huvudsak påverkar marknadens aktörers värdering av förhoppningsföretag, samt förklara hur mekanismerna påverkar aktörernas värdering. Avgränsningar: Vi studerar inte hur mekanismerna rankas av aktörerna eller hur vi ska kunna fastställa hur mycket de påverkar värdet på företaget. Genomförande: Intervjuer har förts med fem professionella aktörer.

Självkänsla är något vi ständigt bär med oss och den inverkar på vårt agerande samt våra val i livet. Johnson (2003) delar in självkänslan i två delar den inre och yttre, vilka kan kombineras till fyra personligheter.

Etthundrasju studenter fyllde i en enkät bestående av 58 påståenden, vilken mätte inre, yttre självkänsla samt self-handicapping.
