Studien ?r en j?mf?relseanalys med en mellangruppsdesign d?r den oberoende variabeln (presentationsmodalitet: text vs audiovisuell) manipulerades f?r att unders?ka modaliteternas effekt p? minnesretention av krisinformation. I den ena betingelsen fick deltagarna l?sa elva sidor ur broschyren Om krisen eller kriget kommer, utgiven av Myndigheten f?r samh?llsskydd och beredskap (MSB). I den andra betingelsen fick en annan grupp deltagare ta del av ett audiovisuellt format av samma elva sidor.

This thesis is an evaluation of a new design concept for statorfeets in Gallejaur hydro power plant. Founder of the work is Vattenfall AB Vattenkraft. During the 70- and 80´s nuclear power began to be phased in to the Swedish grid, which meant that hydropower became an important source of rules. The generators began running in so called intermittent operations instead of basic operations, which meant 300-600 start/stop per year instead of one-ten numbers start/stop per year. In order to deal with the thermal forces that arise at every start and stop suppliers began to mount so called sliding joints, which is to take advantage of these forces and maintain the stator shape.

Background: Knowledge management is a concept that is considered of increasing importance in the developing knowledge society. Previous research in the area has to a large extent been based on large multinational companies.

This report describes an examination project made for the IT consultingcompany Sogeti. The purpose of the project was to develop and modify the translation tool Language Manager (LM) built by Sogeti to be used for translating applications. Employees at Sogeti considered some disadvantages with Language Manager, version 1.0 which among others was that language files for projects were saved at two locations. Partly in resource maps among with the source code of the applications and partly in a database. This was dual work for employees at Sogeti and it also caused redundancy inthe system.

Package design constitutes an important marketing and differentiation tool in an increasingly competitive food market, particularly in the category of daily consumer goods where the turnover rate is high and the purchases are based on self-service (Hine, 1997; Spethmann, 1994; Underwood, 1999). Media fragmentation undermines the traditional marketing tools and the demands for packaging are bigger than ever. A package must not only sell a product, but also tell, through design, how the product is used and express the values that the trademark owner wishes to convey to the end customer (Underwood, 1998). The understanding of the role of packaging as a marketing tool has increased, but the initiators inside the packaging industry in Sweden still think that the Swedish packaging industry is developing slowly. They often describe Swedish packages as homogeneous and unimaginative.

Det kan föreligga en risk idag att sjuksköterskor inte hinner tillgodose patienternas behov som tidigare eftersom att vårdtiderna är kortare och att arbetsbelastningen inte har blivit mindre. Patientens preoperativa skede början när han/hon känner att något inte står rätt till med hans/hennes kropp. Det är ett stressfyllt moment att genomgå en operation både fysiskt och psykiskt. Många patienter kan uppleva ångest, otrygghet och maktlöshet eftersom man inte har någon kontroll över sin kropp under operationen. Vård är ett samspel mellan patient och vårdare.

The purpose with this essay was to examine and bring a deeper comprehension about brands as a phenomenon. We also wanted to study if strong brands could develop in to strategic competition means and by that expand their market range. To do this we used a qualitative method. We started by gathering a theoretical basis. This gave us a platform, which helped us learn more about the subject, brands.

Bakgrund:Awareness definieras som när en patient i generell anestesi i efterhand kan minnas händelser eller ha förnimmelser från en operation då han eller hon borde varit medvetslös. Det är en allvarlig anestesiologisk komplikation som kan leda till posttraumatiskt stressyndrom. Av de patienter som genomgår kirurgiska ingrepp i generell anestesi drabbas cirka 0,1 - 0,2 %. Den vanligaste orsaken till awareness är ytlig anestesi, vilket hos särskilda riskpatienter ibland kan vara svårt att förebygga med endast traditionell övervakning. Det finns därför ytterligare metoder att tillgå.

The purpose of the thesis is to examine the thoughts and opinions of a selected group of people regarding the terrorist attack that occurred in Stockholm 12/11-2010. This study has been conducted through the method of focus group interview. The study was methodologically and theoretically inspired by Grounded Theory, which simply means that the participants' opinions have formed the theory of the study. As a result of the study, we can see that the main focus of the discussion held by the participants was through a we and them thinking-perspective. Furthermore, the study reveals that the participants tried to include who we (muslims) are, and to exclude who they (non muslims) are, while arguing in the discussion. Another definition is the one of here and there, where the participants defined terrorism and what causes it. Finally, media's role was discussed in relation to the creation of the medie-muslim. To explain the participants' perceptive, part of Appadurai?s Fear of small numbers and part of Brune?s Dark magic in the white media was used..

The majority of the Swedish population were self-provided within agriculture a hundred years ago. Times do change and today the situation is the other way around - most of us live within city boundaries and only few work with farming and related agricultural businesses. One thing that has not changed though, is the need of supplies from Swedish agriculture.What do we think of those products? Are we even aware of the connection between us and agriculture? The Federation of Swedish Farmers, LRF (Lantbrukarnas riksförbund), started their project to strengthen the link between consumers and producers in 2008.This paper is part of the project and its aim is to investigate consumers' views and values upon the effects and products from Swedish agriculture.Opinions and values have been studied through interviews influenced by phenomenology. The results show that the informants in general had a positive approach and thinking concerning the products and effects from Swedish agriculture.

Bakgrund: Subacromialt impingement syndrom (SAIS) är den vanligaste orsaken till skuldersmärta. Syndromet karaktäriseras av att smärta kan reproduceras genom rörelser som minskar utrymmet mellan acromion och humerus. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att kartlägga för vilka sjukgymnastiska behandlingsmetoder vid SAIS som evidensen är prövad, samt att undersöka vilken evidens som fanns för behandlingsmetodernas effekt. Metod: En litteraturöversikt genomfördes med artikelsökning i databaserna Pubmed, Cinahl, Amed och PEDro. PEDro-scale och SBU:s evidensgradering användes för att bedöma artiklarna.

?The modern library in the network society?A study of cultural politicians and librarians opinions about libraries' use of social mediaSocial media is becoming more and more interacted in our daily lives and Carlsson (2013) argues that today's libraries have undergone major challenges in the digital information technology's entry in the library arena. The new technology has led to sum up in one question: how a library should relate to the digital information technology, the issue has applied in particular the social communications media, such as Facebook, Twitter and more. The purpose of this paper is to examine the culture of politicians and librarians 'perceptions of public libraries' use of social media linked to the libraries and their democracy promotion efforts. This is analyzed from Castells theories about the network society and the digital divide.In summary, the study concluded that the majority of the culture politicians and librarians believe that social media is a part of the future of the library.

This report describes the results of the project "Concept development of jet engine inspection plugs" carried out in the spring of 2008. The work was done at the department of product definition at the company Volvo Aero in Trollhättan. The objective of the work was to develop concepts for a "Volvo-unique" inspection plug. The work is part of Volvo Aero's focus on proprietary (self-developed) technologies. Inspection plugs can be found on virtually all aircraft engines and gas turbines.

Det kan vara svårt att göra korrekta bedömningar i konflikter likt Afghanistan idag. Nato har definerat insatsen i Afghanistan som en Counter-insurgency (COIN)-operation. Osäkerhetsfaktorerna är många och där skiftningar i framgångarna varierar kraftigt över tiden. Det gör också att i många fall måste det finnas parallella processer för det säkerhetspolitiska arbetet. Komplexiteten med detta har gjort att det har utvecklats multifunktionella strategier.

Denna studie gjordes för att belysa den problematik som kan uppstå inom föreningslivet i städer med en mångfasetterad befolkning . Malmö har under de senaste årtiondena utvecklats till vad som kallas en dual-city där klyfterna mellan de rika och de fattiga i staden blivit allt större. Frågeställningarna jag syftat till att besvara i denna uppsats är: Hur är fördelningen av samhällsklasser i Malmös olika stadsdelar? Finns det skillnader i hur stort idrottsutövandet är mellan samhällsklasserna? Finns det skillnader i idrottsutbudet mellan de olika stadsdelarna i Malmö? Dessa frågor har besvarats via ett sociologiskt perspektiv där teorier från Bourdieu har varit dominerande. Resultaten visar att på grund av de stora klyftorna mellan rika och fattiga i Malmös stadsdelar har Malmö idag ett uppdelat föreningsliv.
