AbstractThe purpose of this study was to describe and compare the degree of selfreporting succession to the basal hygienic routines of emplyees working in municipal old peoples care versus hospital care. It is also to describe the access of material available in prevention of cross infections. The study was also carried out with a comparative and quantitative run up design. The study is based on a questionnaire in the district of Gävleborg in the spring of 2009. Nurses, auxiliaries and carers whom were in close contact with patients were asked to join the study.

Share repurchases in Sweden has since legalization in 2000 gained momentum. Similar to other corporate events, there are studies that examine whether this affects the share price performance. With studies in the U.S. that measured excess returns of approximately 3,5 percent on the announcement day; Swedish buybacks, holding a tighter regulation is of interest to study. The Stockholm Stock Exchange regulation regarding reporting is also similar to the Stock Exchange in Hong Kong.

Several theoretical models of change exist concerning attachment, but an integrated view and knowledge of the role separate factors of change play for the individual is lacking. This phenomenon is hereby studied by semi-structured interviews of 20 persons. Change and factors of change are examined statistically with affectregulation as measure of attachment. The results show that these individuals´ changes are small and mostly towards secure attachment. Metacognition is related to greater change towards secure attachment.

States have sovereignty in deciding how to tax business profits. If two states wish to tax the same profit that belongs to the same taxpayer, double taxation will arise. The increasing number of multinational companies gives rise to double taxation problems and the states have to co-operate to find out how to avoid such problems. The OECD Model Tax Convention includes an article in how to determine the rights to tax business profits. This article has been a subject of discussion and a committee of the OECD has been working to develop a new article 7.The work in proposing this new article has had as its aim to reassure that the interpretations of this regulation is made in the same way.

This thesis aims to show the positive effects of marketing by studying whether the regulation on direct marketing to consumers of prescription drugs today prevents to consumers accurate information and better health, and how consumers relate to the possible legalization of increased marketing through controlled and information audited webpages. Methods used in this research are qualitative method, quantitative method, documents and websites studies. The thesis fulfills the purpose as it shows the potential positive effects of an expanded marketing through pre-approved websites. It also shows a demand from the consumers' side and a need for increased awareness for more empowerment over their own health.

Personlighetsdragen openness och extraversion respektive situationsfaktorerna variation, intensitet, samt frekvens och deras påverkan på emotionsregleringsstrategierna reappraisal samt suppression skiljer sig inom yrkesgrupperna vård respektive handel. Åtta regressions-analyser med data från sammanlagt 178 anställda visade att (1) inom vården har extraversion, openness, samt frekvens betydelse för reappraisal, och intensiteten påverkar suppression, och (2) för handel visade sig openness och situationen som helhet ha betydelse för suppression, medan inga samband kunde påvisas för reappraisal. Skillnaderna tyder på att det finns ett behov av fortsatt forskning inom emotionsreglering, inriktad på skillnader mellan olika yrkesgrupper..

The Kverneland Ecomat and The Ecomat Seeder has been tested in three different field studies. All the studies were conducted on soils with different clay content during 2005 in Säby outside Uppsala. In one of the trial spring ploughing with the Ecomat and spring ploughing and seeding with Ecomat Seeder were compared with conventional autumn mouldboard ploughing and spring mouldboard ploughing to conventional depth (22-23 cm). In this study the quality of the seedbed, the number of emerged plants and weeds, the pentration resistance and the yield were examined. Shallow spring ploughing (10 cm) with the Kverneland Ecomat has shown to be a good alternative to conventional autumn ploughing when growing spring crops. During the season 2005 tilling with the Ecomat resulted in a higher yield than conventional ploughing. In 2002-2005 the average yield for shallow spring ploughing was 4 percent higher than after conventional autumn mouldboard ploughing and 10 percent higher than after spring mouldboard ploughing to conventional depth (22-23 cm). In the other two studies, ploughing to different depth in the autumn with the Ecomat was compared with conventional mouldboard ploughing and stubble discing.

We have performed a historical research, trying to establish the auditing conditions, in terms of adjustments over time. Our purpose with this essay was to demonstrate the facts behind the independence of the auditor, and hopefully give the reader some new information.Our questions at issue were: What in the debate, regarding the independence of the auditor, in concern of the scandals, is most relevant each decade?Witch aftermath has influenced the regulation regarding the independence of the auditor?What we thought was the best way to answer this question was to study a large amount of journals according to the current decade, since 1930 and forward. The journals presented different persons opinions regarding the scandals, and we used them as an instrument to analyse the regulations and after-effects of the scandals.Our conclusion is that in purpose to make the auditor independent, the debate among competent and well-informed people in the line of business has, through the decades, frequently recurred to strive towards a more homogenous auditing..

Arbetet om komplexa artrika planteringar handlar om hur man kan arbeta med en högre komplexitet och en högre artrikedom än vad vi är vana att se i urbana miljöer. Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka hur komplexa artrika planteringar kan användas i urbana miljöer. Benämningen komplexa artrika planteringar är skapad som en urbaniserad variant av naturalistiska planteringar. Naturalistiska planteringar har ofta ett organiskt planteringsmönster och innehåller främst rena eller vilda arter. I komplexa artrika planteringarna inkluderas även mindre grupplanteringar samt användning av sorter som uppstått genom växtförädling, med dubbla blommor eller brokiga blad. Arbetet har tre frågeställningar: Vad är en komplex artrik plantering (definition och innehåll) och hur kan den se ut? Vad kan komplexa artrika planteringar bidra med i urbana miljöer och vad finns det för svårigheter med dem? I vilka miljöer fungerar komplexa artrika planteringar och vad är det för kunskaper som behövs för att skapa dem? Frågorna besvarades genom litteraturstudier, intervjuer med Ulf Nordfjell och Piet Oudolf och analys och jämförelse av Skogens trädgård i Ockelbo, Norra Kajpromenaden i Norrköping, Drömparken i Enköping och Skärholmens perennpark. Arbetet struktureras upp efter nio aspekter: Komplexitet, Artantal, Växtgestaltarens kunskaper, Stabilitet, Förlängd säsong, Estetik, Biologisk mångfald, Succession och Fyllda nischer. Arbetets slutsats är att komplexa artrika planteringar kan bidra med många fördelar i urbana miljöer och för att skapa estetiskt tilltalande och mer hållbara stadsmiljöer är det viktigt att växtgestaltare tänker på att ta hänsyn till aspekterna som presenteras i detta arbete..

This report is a study in voltagelevel in connection with regeneration of brake energy from the tramtype M31 in Gothenburg.In the act of braking, the tram M31 uses electrical braking where the electrical motors generates energy and if possible send it back to the overheadline, where other trams in the nearby can use this regenerated energy for its own driving force. In cases where no other energyconsumers are located in the same section, there is a resistance witch task is to convert this energy into heat. The regulation of this resistance appears to cause an increase in the voltagelevel into far too high levels.Investigations of the trams regulationequipment and its construction have been done. Further have measurements on the overheadline been performed in order to map the voltagevariations during a longer period of time.The result have been showing that the voltagelevel during regeneration often is as high as 880V-920V, more extreme values have not been observed in a large scale. The values are especially high compared to the nominal voltagelevel.

I denna studie undersöks hur vattenmiljön förändrades i ett område av västra Yoldiahavet, idag sjön Myssjaren i östra Mellansverige. Syftet med undersökningen har varit att återskapa hur vattnets salthalt förändrades i området genom att studera förekomsten av fossil från saltvattenkrävande bentisk kalkskalsfauna i lera från perioden.Fossil hittades från sju år, 10 395-10 388 lervarvsår BP, av den 31 år långa period, 10 410-10 379 lervarvsår BP, som har undersökts. Utifrån fossilförekomsten kunde det konstateras att vattnet var bräckt under dessa sju år. Eftersom att fossil inte hittades från tidigare och senare perioder Därför är det möjligt att vattnet var bräckt både före och efter denna period.Det som begränsade de undersökta arternas utbredning i området var halten suspenderat sediment i vattnet. Det var en konsekvens av att mycket sediment transporterades till området i och med att området befann sig mellan två större utlopp av glacialt smältvatten.Därför har denna studie, förutom att konstatera att vattnet var bräckt under den undersökta perioden, även visat en succession av arter i Yoldiahavet.I studien identifieras också en 4 år lång kallperiod som varade mellan 10 393-10 389 lervarvsår BP.

The out-of-town retail establishments are part of the dramatic structural changes in the retailing of food and groceries. There are however strong indications suggesting these establishments result in negative externalities concerning areas such as pollution and urban environment. The purpose of this study is to describe and, from an economic perspective, analyse the Swedish political regulations and planning policies concerning the out-of-town supermarkets. The analysis establishes that the current regulations regarding out-of-town retailing do not, due to the occurrence of market failures, produce an optimal situation. It might therefore be necessary to change the planning policies in a more restrictive direction.

   To work and live in the same place where ones employer also is the landlord, can create a situation with many special requirements for the individual. Constrains regarding time, space and impact on social life is likely to appear. Based on theory and empirical research about the Boundaryless work and the Psychological contract the purpose of this report is to examine employees who live and work at the same place. This is done by studying the regulation regarding time and space factors and the psychological contracts in expectations and in violation of the psychological contract and the risks associated with this like Locked-in factors. The study includes interviews with managers and employees (n=9).
