The result is based on an explorative research conducted by us, with starting point whether immigrants, consisting of Middle Eastern ones, can be seen as an attractive target group for big grocery shops. In order to understand whether they are attractive to target, we need to grasp underlying factors such as our research question: ?What are the habits of Middle Eastern consumers regarding food that marketers from Sweden can target??

This master thesis examines sport habits among young people and a view of their future in sports. Research has shown that the majority of youth leave sport clubs during adolescence. The thesis questions were: How physically active are young people? Which sports do they practice? Regarding their future in sports, what kind of aspirations do the young people have? Are there any barriers that could complicate their involvement in these activities? These questions were examined by analyzing if there were any differences between boys and girls, youth in different grades and youth with Swedish or foreign backgrounds. Pierre Bourdieu´s theoretical framework about sports and economic capital has been used as a research framework.

Syfte: Att studera vilka faktorer som har orsakssamband med tandvårdsrädsla hos barn och ungdomar.Material och metod: Litteraturstudien är en litteraturöversikt av utgivna vetenskapliga artiklar som berör tandvårdsrädsla och dess orsaker hos barn och ungdomar. Sökning och bedömning av relevanta vetenskapliga artiklar har gjorts i avsikt att hitta svaret på studiens syfte. Kvantitativa studier inkluderades i studien. Artiklar som publicerades före 2000-talet exkluderades.Resultat: Resultatet visade att barnets tandvårdsrädsla är associerat med föräldrarnas tandvårdsrädsla.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra för varför tandhygienistyrket väljs och varför den två- eller treåriga utbildningen till tandhygienist söks? Uppsatsen ger en översikt hur tankegångarna tidigare har varit inför tandhygienist-utbildningens längd. Hösten 2010 ska den behörighetsutredning som regeringen tillsatt redovisa vad de kommit fram till om tandhygienistutbildningens längd. För att få svar på uppsatsens syfte har en enkät utlämnats till förstaårsstudenter på tandhygienistutbildningen i Kristianstad och Malmö. Resultaten från enkätundersökningen visar att endast hälften av tandhygieniststudenterna har utbildningen som sitt förstahandsval.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how hippos are concerned..

The aim of this masters thesis is to investigate how childrens librarians deal with gender issues in their work when acquiring and mediating books to children, and how reviews in Bibliotekstjänsts Sambindning can be of help in this aspect. The thesis focuses on children between 6 and 12 years of age and their reading of fiction. Four interviews with childrens librarians and an examination of reviews in Sambindningen have been carried out. The reviews were examined both by finding out with what frequency gender issues are dealt with and by studying 20 childrens books from a gender perspective, comparing my judgement with the one they got in the reviews. The examination of Sambindningen showed that the reviews therein only sporadically bring up gender issues.
