The present study deals with the usage of the school library for upper secondary school students. Is it a place for working or studying? The questions are:? What do the students say they use their school library for?? Are there any differences between students in theoretical programs and students in practical programs with regard to their use of the school library?? What are the features of the ideal library from a students? point of view? My study represents a user?s perspective. The investigation is both quantitative and qualitative. Eighty-two inquiries from four different classes, representing two theoretical and two practical programs were carried out.

This paper gives an introduction to the theory of minimal surfaces. It is in- tended for undergraduate students with some basic knowledge of differential geometry and complex analysis.After defining the concept of minimal surface and giving a brief histo- rical survey, we look at some well-known minimal surfaces and a few of their characteristic properties. The connection between minimal surfaces and harmonic functions is discussed and the Weierstrass-Enneper represen- tation formulas are introduced. We also present Bjo?rling?s problem and give some examples. .

This report consists of a discussion about suitable methods for studying complex sociotechnical systems that are still being developed. There are large economical advantages with studying new systems before they are completely developed since problems can be discovered early and thereby avoided. It is, however, difficult to study developing systems, there are methodological limitations. These limitations are discussed and recommendations for studying non-existing complex sociotechnical systems are presented.The report is based on experiences from a study of the introduction of a shipboard helicopter on the corvettes that the Swedish Armed Forces are developing. A shipboard helicopter implies high requirements on the hosting ship.

This thesis aims to analyse the problems concerning the reorganization of the Swedish consulary system, which took place right after the Swedish entry in the European Union in 1995. This thesis shows the underlying debate in the Parliament before the changes. It also discusses which factors caused the reorganisation. My work focuses on the Swedish consulary representation in Spain which exist of an embassy in Madrid and 20 underlying honorary consulates. The consulates are not foreign authorities but are still handeling a lot of cases as an govenmental authority.

Bakgrund: Hjärtstopp drabbar omkring 15 000 personer i Sverige varje år. Cirka 10 000 av dessa sker utanför sjukhus och cirka 5000 på sjukhus. Majoriteten klarar sig inte. De frågeställningar som användes i litteraturstudien var: Hur mår personen efter hjärtstoppet, på vilket sätt påverkade detta personen existentiellt, och hur upplevs livskvalitet idag jämfört med före hjärtstoppet. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien, är att belysa personers erfarenheter av att överleva ett hjärtstopp.

The aim of this essay is to investigate to which extent the novel Kvinnor och äppelträd by Moa Martinson can be classified as a polyphonic novel. The concept polyphony was established in literary theory by the Russian language theorist and literary critic Michail Bachtin in 1929, in his book Problems of Dostoevsky?s poetics. In order to understand and comprehend the concept of polyphony I have used an interpretation due to the literature scholar Robyn McCallum. She notes that the characters in a polyphonic novel function as focalizers.

The views on and the knowledge of the introduction of iron to Scandinavia have change by the history of archaeology. The results and discussions are put in the context of time and how that time is reflected in their work and texts. This limits that scholars put up to orientate themselves conceal the complex reality. The limits are changing all the time and is dependent of time and person..

Att yrkesma?nniskor som mo?ter traumatiserade personer eller exponeras fo?r aversiva stimuli sja?lva o?ver tid kan utveckla PTSD-liknande symtom, har uppma?rksammats inom forskningen. Denna process bena?mns ofta Sekunda?r Traumatisering (ST). I fo?religgande studie intervjuades tio poliser som granskar barnpornografiskt material om sina upplevelser.

Varje dag utsätts människor för brott i Sverige och att utsättas för brott kan leda till både emotionella och praktiska svårigheter. Att den brottsutsatta har möjlighet till stöd och hjälp efter händelsen kan minska de negativa följderna av brottet, såsom PTSD och sekundär viktimisering. I många kommuner i Sverige finns lokala brottsofferjourer som finns till för de brottsutsatta, men i distriktet Östra Norrbotten finns det ingen verksamhet som specifikt täcker detta område. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka om poliserna i Östra Norrbotten upplever att de kan erbjuda eller hänvisa de brottsutsatta individerna tillräcklig hjälp. Åtta poliser i distriktet intervjuades för att på så sätt ta del av deras upplevelser.

Syftet med studien var att undersöka om en flygolycka påverkar passagerarnas flygrädsla på längre sikt och eventuella konsekvenser som det kan innebära. Hur och på vilka sätt påverkar i så fall ett trauma som en flygolycka passagerarnas rädsla att flyga utifrån ett längre tidsperspektiv. 27 män och kvinnor, som alla var med i flygolyckan i Gottröra den 27 december 1991, har varit målgrupp för studien. Metoden som användes var en enkätundersökning distribuerad till 44 personer, med 27 medverkade till en svarsprocent på 61 %.  Resultatet av undersökningen visar att samtliga respondenter hävdar att de inte var flygrädda innan flygolyckan, medan över 70 % är flygrädda efter händelsen och 81 % av dem anser att flygolyckan var den bidragande orsaken till deras flygrädsla.

Sverige har över 100.000 veteraner och den svenska politiken verkar för ett större samarbete med FN och Nato. Därför är det viktigt att Sverige även kan hantera hemkomna veteraner som fått psykiska besvär under tjänstgöringen. Denna studie har baserats på veteraner och hur de upplever hemkomsten, veteranernas erfarenheter av Hemkomstprogram och tjänstgöring. Studien gör en jämförelse mellan tidigare forskning och veteranernas åsikter om vad som kan påverka den psykiska hälsan samt deras åsikter om hemkomstprogrammet. Arbetet består av inspelade telefonintervjuer som gjorts med veteraner (n=5) och en av Försvarsmaktens psykologer samt tidigare forskning.
