Ett viktigt område inom arbetsterapi är att stödja personer att finna aktivitetsbalans i sin vardag. Personer med de neuropsykiatriska sjukdomarna ADHD och Aspergers syndrom har ofta svårigheter som kan kopplas till detta. Syfte med denna studie var att beskriva hur arbetsterapeuter resonerar och arbetar med aktivitetsbalans med personer som har ADHD eller Aspergers syndrom. Åtta halvstrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med arbetsterapeuter som arbetar med dessa diagnosgrupper. Datan analyserades med hjälp av kvalitativ innehållsanalys och resulterade i tre kategorier: Balans och obalans påverkar aktivitetsområden; Personen och omgivningens betydelse för aktivitetsbalans; Att möjliggöra aktivitetsbalans.

AbstractThis is a study of present day dogs with the purpose to establish a method to investigate archaeological dogs and determine their use in the past. The study has focused on measurements of five bone elements, scapula, humerus, radius, ulna and femur. A principal component analysis has been applied in order to decide which measurements to be further used in the analysis. Different proportions have been calculated on these measurements.A test to try the method has also been done on bones of a wolf and a dog without known background. The results from the different elements are positive, and they narrow the field down to two dog types of which one is more likely to be true than the other.The final results show that, although over lapses between the four different dog groups; hunting dogs, guard/work dogs, sled dogs and shepherd's dogs exists, it is possible to distinguish different dog usage from the proportions of the bones..

In my degree project I have focused on how to make it easier for ambulance personnel to remove a motorcycle helmet after an accident. During my research I have interviewed ambulance personnel from different cities and a trauma surgeon to get a better understanding of how they work today and the problems they experience. Some of the problem areas are that you need a lot of force to remove the helmet, that the padding catches the ears and that the chin guard catches the face. Since ambulance personnel always assume that there is a neck injury after an accident, all these problems make it difficult to remove the helmet safely.The result is a motorcycle helmet with a focus on safe removal after an accident, to reduce the risk of worsening a neck injury. The solution suggested is that a small part of the back of the helmet is detachable, to make the opening larger.

Bakgrund: Träning medför hormonella förändringar och anpassning av vävnader. Under kvinnans menstruationscykel fluktuerar halten könshormoner. International Organization for Physical Therapy in Women?s Health (IOPTWH) anser att vårdutbildningar på grundnivå bör inkludera kunskap kring kvinnans specifika fysiologi. Detta bör tas hänsyn till och inkluderas i sjukgymnastens arbete, rehabilitering och träning av kvinnliga patienter.

The school is a place of work where teachers, with different tools, are supposed to teach their students for the future. In the study the teachers? opinions will be lifted when it comes to use of computers as a tool to teach the students how to read and write. The interpretation is that the use of computers is reflecting the development of society and the intention is to find out if computers will be used in a didactic purpose in teaching. We focused on getting knowledge about which different opinions there are among teachers in grade 1-3 when it comes to the use of computers as a tool in teaching how to read and write.

The purpose of this study was to compare less experienced veterinarians? subjective assessments of lameness in horses on the lunge. Previous studies on subjective lameness evaluation have mainly focused on horses trotting in a straight line and the results have shown generally low compliance. With a web-based questionnaire, 43 veterinarians assessed 60 recordings that showed both fore- and hindlimb lameness, interspersed with sound horses that were trotting on the lunge in one direction. The horses showed mild to moderate lameness.

Syftet med denna studie var att beskriva erfarenheter som personer med multipel skleros (MS) har av förändrad delaktighet och om deltagande i temagrupp kan främja delaktighet i aktivitet. Undersökningsgruppen bestod av två män och två kvinnor som hade haft MS i minst ett år och hade upplevt förändringar i sina vardagliga aktiviteter. Fokusgruppsintervjuer användes som datainsamlingsmetod och genomfördes vid två tillfällen under deltagarnas rehabiliteringsperiod. Individuella uppföljningsintervjuer genomfördes en månad efter deltagarnas hemkomst. Analys av insamlat material resulterade i tre kategorier som gavs namnen: Förändrad delaktighet i vardagen, Lärdomar som influerar vardagen och Skapandet av en ny vardag.

This project has revolved around finding better ways of overseeing vibrations of the gearbox at a wind power station. The gearbox has been a huge problem at the stations located at Gässlingen and the sooner the warning of an incoming breakdown is at hand the more money you can save from preparations. The work has been carried out together with Askalon AB in cooperation with consults from ÅF. Askalon is a company with a department focused on overseeing vibrations and it is in collaboration with that department the work has been carried out. During this work, new positions for the sensors and new methods of gathering and analyzing data have been worked out. This was then implemented at a wind power station to be tried out on site.

A large part of research about libraries and library buildings in Sweden has been focused on how the building looks not how it functions with the library. The aim with this master?s thesis is to study how a library building is functioning and how its users are experiencing it. This is studied in three libraries, Kungliga tekniska högskolans bibliotek, Sambiblioteket in Härnösand and Vitterhetsakademiens bibliotek. With the questions of how they were planed, what did the libraries want from the new building and which of these demands were realized.

Syftet med studien var att belysa hur personer med synnedsättning upplever den fysiska miljöns tillgänglighet i samhället. För att besvara syftet valdes en intervjubaserad studie för att få en fördjupad kunskap inom området. Semistrukturerade intervjuer med nio personer utfördes ifrån två olika kommuner. Inklusionskriterierna för deltagande var att personerna skulle vara medlemmar av intresseföreningen, ha en synnedsättning samt vara i arbetsför ålder. Dataanalysen genomfördes utifrån en innehållsanalys och resulterade i fyra kategorier ?Upplevelser av miljöns bristande tillgänglighet?, Upplevelser av miljön som ett stöd för aktiviteter?, Upplevelser av hur välkända miljöer skapade tillgänglighet? och ?Upplevelser, konsekvenser och hanteringsstrategier av bristande tillgänglighet?.

My purpose with the study is to investigate if it is possible to argue in favor of organizing public libraries according to the client based theory. To create a base to argue from I have studied UFO, a department focused on young adults at the age between 15 and 25 at the public library of Malmö. This case study, performed by investigating the documentation of UFO as well as conducting an interview with the project leader, is the base from which I then can argue for or against the idea of organizing public libraries according to the client based theory. Public libraries should always reflect the communities they serve. This challenges the staff of different libraries in different regions to arrange their organizations accordingly to their local population and to be flexible enough to follow the changes of this population.
