The purpose of this thesis was to study the importance of virtual communities for independent record companies. It also aims to examine how these companies use virtual communities in their marketing activities and how to gain competitive advantages by working with virtual communities. A case study based on interviews was conducted with managers from two independent record companies, Music Is My Girlfriend Recordings and B&B Records. Our study has shown that virtual communities are important for independent record companies as tools for finding and addressing the right target market. Useful information about the members of these communities can easily be gathered with the use of the various search options that are available.

We have produced a process mapping and from there developed a document management plan for the research service at the Labour Movement Archives and Library (ARAB) in Stockholm, Sweden. The project was conducted during five weeks in the spring of 2011 at ARAB and the resulting classification structure and document plan has been formulated and presented to the staff at a seminar. We found that the institution in some cases were suffering from an inadequate documentation in a number of the identified processes, and also in their records management and archiving. In this additional memorandum follows an analyzing discussion of activity-based document- and archive management, e-archives and process mapping. We have accordingly tried to standardize the process of research services and contribute to a more adequate document management within the institution.

This essay focuses on crime history and gender. It is a study of female crimes in the beginning of the 19th century in a small parish (Askeryd Socken) in Småland in the south part of Sweden. The method I have used is to study the records of Municipal Court regarding the citizens of the parish of Askeryd. I have then tried to find out whether the female offenders have been treated different than the male offenders, if there is a certain kind of gender-related crimes and in those cases where comparison is possible, I have examined if the females are treated in a lighter way. (?female discount?), or if they were treated as mentally unstable.The essay shows that in this particular parish during the years 1825 to 1830, female offenders were not treated in a lighter manner.

Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa patientens upplevelse av god omvårdnad, inom EU och Norden, given av sjuksköterskor verksamma på avdelningar inom somatisk vård. Återkommande upplevelser i de granskade artiklarna identifierades och blev fyra huvudkategorier med underkategorier. Huvudkategorierna var: kommunikation, sjuksköterska, patient och miljö. Det har funnits många gemensamma faktorer, som var viktiga för att patienten skulle uppleva god omvårdnad. För att kunna uppleva god omvårdnad krävdes bl a: patientorienterad och individuell kommunikation, att sjuksköterskan skulle ha en vårdande ansats samt vara observant och förutseende, inneha egenskaper såsom empati, humor, kompetens samt att se patienten som en unik individ delaktig i omvårdnadssituationen.

Purpose- The purpose of this project is to contribute to the knowledge of creating customer value through streamlining and coordination of patient flows for children and youth with frequent need of care on child and youth medical clinics.Method- One of the methods used for achieving the project's purpose is a case study on the Child and Youth Medicine Clinic at Länssjukhuset Ryhov in Jönköping. The case study has been used for collecting the empirical data that has been generated through interviews, observations and documents from the Child and Youth Health Clinic. Except the case study the authors also made studies in literature, which the collected empirical data has been anchored and related to. Together this led to the project's analysis and results.Results- When investigating the questions found in chapter one, it was determined standardized work is of great importance to create structure and implement procedures for the patient flows. A weak link in the patient flow has been identified, which is the sub-process coordination and planning.

Vid akut sjukdom eller skada är det i huvudsak akutmottagningen som handhar det akuta omhändertagandet av en skadad, orolig och ostabil patient. Det påvisades i denna studie att patienten som söker vård på akutmottagningen ofta känner sig underlägsen, ignorerad och bortglömd av sjuksköterskan. Det är därför av stor vikt att sjuksköterskan bedriver en omvårdnad som inger trygghet och säkerhet hos patienten. Syftet med studien var att beskriva patienters upplevelser av mötet med sjuksköterskan på akutmottagningen. Syftet besvarades genom en litteraturstudie där 12 kvalitativa artiklar analyserades.

The parameters accounted for are the C/N ratio, total organic carbon (TOC) as well as total nitrogen present (TN) and ?13C in the top ten centimeters of a sediment core retrieved in the Sk?rhamn harbour.

Hjärt- kärlsjukdomarna är idag den vanligaste dödsorsaken, av vilken hjärtinfarkt är den mest förekommande. Rökning är en av de stora riskfaktorerna och risken att återinsjukna kan halveras efter ett år om man slutar att röka. Professionellt stöd kan behövas för att sluta röka. Syftet med studien var att beskriva patientens upplevelse av sjuksköterskans stöd i samband med att försöka sluta röka efter en genomgången hjärtinfarkt. En kvalitativ ansats med semistrukturerade intervjuer som datainsamlingsmetod genomfördes.
