Arbetsplatsernas ständiga utveckling och förändring har lett fram till ökade psykosociala krav från de anställda som företaget måste bemöta. Ska man bedriva ett hälsofrämjande arbete bör hänsyn tas till hur kulturen ser ut på arbetsplatsen. Samlade värderingar och verklighetsuppfattningar kring hälsa skapas när individer samverkar med varandra och omvärlden, detta kallar vi ?hälsokultur?. Syftet med studien är att beskriva hur hälsokulturen ser ut på ett företag och vilka möjligheter och resurser som finns på företaget för att utveckla denna.

This study focuses on the politics around ecological sustainable development in Sweden today, with emphasis on urban development, building and living. The starting-point for this study is the environmental adapted city district of Stockholm, Hammarby Sjöstad. The primary focus of the study is to investigate what means of control the environmental investment in Hammarby Sjöstad is expressing, and to elucidate their ideological, political and social implications. The empirical material is primarily based up on the local Hammarby Sjöstad environmental program along with qualitative in-depth interviews with citizens of this district. The study is based on critical discourse analysis The result of this study is that the ecological investment in Hammarby Sjöstad partly constitutes a hidden exercise of power, taking shape as built-in physical measures in the dwellings and the neighbouring surroundings.

Literary debates about canon occur regularly. In the summer of 2006 such a debate took place in Sweden. The aim of this Master thesis is to examine the debate to identify the different discourses and what they reveal about ideas concerning the role of literature in society. The empirical material used for the analysis consists of 46 debate articles from three important newspapers. The combined theory and method applied is the discourse analysis described in Ernesto Laclau?s & Chantal Mouffe?s discourse theory.

The use of Power Line Communication, PLC, as a communication solution for Automated Meter Reading, AMR, is popular by utilities in Sweden and other parts of the world due to demands of accurate and fast meter reading. However the use of the electrical grid as a communication medium is complex and sometimes problematic. This report handles some of the issues and problems that are important to understand when using the grid as a communications medium. Focus is mainly on investigating high frequency distortion in the Kristianstad power grid own by C4energi caused by a frequency converter. Measurements on site are done to investigate signal damping in the grid, different configurations for the frequency converter and signal strength of the PLC-system.

Kärnkraftverk är högteknologiska system med hög komplexitet och utan att hantera den här komplexiteten kan små olyckor få katastrofala följder. Närvaron av komplexitet försämrar förmågan att förstå situationer, minskar kontroll samt ökar risken för incidenter. Stabsarbete inom kärnkraftsdomänen kräver ett agilt beteende för att hantera den höga närvaron av komplexitet. Agilitet är förmågan hos en enhet att framgångsrikt genomföra, hantera och/eller utnyttja förändrade omständigheter. Syftet med arbetet är att utveckla ett mätverktyg för att identifiera indikatorer på agilt beteende i stabsverksamhet inom kärnkraftsdomänen.

Att leva med obesitas, fetma, i dagens samhälle kan innebär att personen blir utsatt för stigmatisering och fördomar av sina medmänniskor och detta kan även ske inom sjukvården. Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt var att beskriva vilka attityder sjuksköterskor har gentemot personer med obesitas. I denna systematiska litteraturöversikt ingick 13 vetenskapliga artiklar. I resultatet framkom flera olika attityder gentemot personer med obesitas, mestadels negativa. De mest framträdande attityder sjuksköterskor har gentemot personer med obesitas var att de upplevdes som lata, likgiltiga och hade en bristande disciplin.

This paper is a qualitative analytic study of the views regarding masculinity of six male university students. The author means to view the gender issue from a male point of view and analyze the empiric result using well known theory on the subject. The main questions of the essay are: What, according to my respondents, is masculine and non masculine? Does the university influence this view, and if so how? How is it to be a man in the society of today? The paper is based around interviews of the six subjects, recorded and transcribed and analyzed in a systematic outline. From this outline relevant themes has been constructed and compared with the theory.

The aim of the study is to examine how the executive leadership and the decision-making process are shaped by the leadership environment in a transition democracy as Venezuela. The questions I intend to answer are: What kind of leadership environment surrounds the leadership and what kind of consequences does it have on the leadership and the decision-making process in Venezuela? To answer my questions I will use the literature: Political Leadership in Liberal Democracies (Elgie, Robert 1995, London: Macmillian), together with the method ?The cultural determinist school of history? by Tomas Spencer, later reproduced by Kellerman. The leadership environment provides unique opportunities for a leader to gain control over the decision-making process. Institutional structures and the needs of the society are major parts in determining how the political leadership is exercised.

In this study we try to focus on the costs for wear parts on different type of soil tillage machines and at Väderstad Rapid drilling machine. We have studied some of the leading types of cultivators and disk harrows. Among the cultivators we have investigated Väderstad Cultus, Dalbo Dinkomax, Horsch Tiger and Terrano. At disk harrow we have looked at Amazone Catros and Väderstad Carrier. We have made more detailed study on costs for wear parts, working depth, driving speed and diesel consumption.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur svenska dagstidningarnas nyhetsvärdering påverkar vetenskapsbevakningen.I en kvantitativ studie jämförs antalet doktorsavhandlingar som läggs fram inom varje vetenskaplig disciplin med antalet som får genomslag i medierna.Resultatet visar att medicinska avhandlingar visserligen är de som genererar flest antal artiklar, men att det jämfört med forskningsfältets storlek ändå är förvånansvärt svårt för medicinska avhandlingar att tränga igenom mediebruset. Humaniora och samhällsvetenskap är istället de discipliner som relativt sett är bäst representerade i medierna medan naturvetenskap och teknik hamnar långt efter.En sammanställning av artiklarnas publiceringsplats visar också att nya avhandlingar inom medicin konsekvent klassas som nyheter eller feature medan humaniora klassas som kultur.I den efterföljande kvalitativa studien undersöks tre specifika avhandlingar inom medicin, litteraturvetenskap och juridik som alla figurerat stort i dagspressen.Genom intervjuer med de inblandade parterna kartläggs hela processen, från det att avhandlingarna färdigställs tills de uppmärksammas i medierna.Förutom att alla tre behandlar ämnen som i någon mån är uppseendeväckande visar sig mellanhanden, en nyckelperson som överbryggar klyftan mellan forskaren och medierna, vara en viktig gemensam faktor..
