Background: People diagnosed with psychosis are often described as introvert, isolated and with little or no ability to create and maintain social relationships. While every angle of a phenomena is valid and important, we believe that the first-person perspective provides the only direct access to the diagnosed persons? feelings and experiences.Aims: The aim of this study is to explore how a few people diagnosed with psychosis describe their experiences of social interaction.Method: This study is conducted in a Grounded Theory manner.

A Swedish electronics company wants to make the cooling of one of their electronic components more efficient. They propose that a retrofit liquid cooler is the way to achieve this goal. The current air cooling has high energy cost due to the high amount of power needed to power fans and heat exchangers. Using high volumes of air for cooling also leads to noise pollution. The conversion from air to liquid cooling would possibly make the operation of the electronics more cost efficient and less noisy.The purpose of this project is to theoretically evaluate different concepts of drawing the heat generated by the electronic component in to a fluid, using numerical calculations in Matlab and FEM simulations in ANSYS.

 Idag har nästan varje student en Facebook-profil och majoriteten av studenterna använder sig av Facebook dagligen. Då studenter lägger upp allt mer och mer privat innehåll på sociala medier har det blivit en källa med information för företag att använda sig av i rekryteringssammanhang.Det uppsatsen menar att besvara är hur studenter på KTH ställer sig till social rekrytering via Facebook och hur de anpassar sig. Vi genomförde en kvantitativ studie för att undersöka hur  studenters medvetenhet kring- samt inställning till social rekrytering ser ut, och sedan genomförde en kvalitativ studie för att undersöka varför inställningen ser ut som den gör. Vi ville även undersöka om social rekrytering anses vara ett accepterat rekryteringsverktyg.Resultaten visar att majoriteten av vår målgrupp är medvetna om att social rekrytering används samt att de tycker det är ett acceptabelt rekryteringsverktyg. Vi har funnit att majoriteten av studenterna väljer att ha stängda profiler, då de inte vill att obehöriga ska ha möjlighet att komma åt privat information.

Consumption of meat and poultry has increased during the last ten years while the production in Sweden has decreased. Cheap imports are competing with Swedish products and consumers, restaurant and retail let the price decided what to purchase. Swedish food producers can become better at communicating the added values that meat and poultry produced in Sweden has. Social media gives companies a possible tool for communication in order to communicate and create a relationship with consumers. The rise of social media does not only affect consumer decisions making, but also corporate communication. The objective of this project is to investigate how social media can connect the farmer to the consumer.

The aim with this study was to examine how social service statement in 3 § social-judgements LVU (Swedish care of young persons act) produce ideas about gender. We have taken an interest in the production of both boys and girls and their mothers and fathers because there are clear differences in the description of these. From a historical perspective, the differences between gender in social assessments occurred despite the fact that discrimination is prohibited by law and despite the fact that social service shall work on the basis of an gender equality perspective. In the analysis and interpretation of the rulings we have been inspired by a critical discourse analysis. 30 social-judgements have been analyzed where of 15 concerns girls and 15 involve boys.

The main domain in which eating disorders are defined is medical, whereas socio-cultural perspectives are less common. Because social workers seeks to explain different problems taking societal factors into account, we asked ourselves if social workers have a way of understanding eating disorders, that is different from a medical point of view. Two focus group interviews were conducted; the one composed by social workers with experience of working with eating disorders, and the other by social workers without that experience, which enabled comparisons. The interviews were analyzed using socio-cultural and feminist perspectives. The result showed that the social workers use socio-cultural perspectives in explaining eating disorders.

Skam och skuld är två emotioner som empiriskt kopplats ihop med en rad olika psykopatologiska tillstånd, såsom depression, ångest, tvångssyndrom och social fobi. För att undersöka skam- och skuldbenägenhet hos klienter med social fobi samt studera om behandling med KBT påverkar graden av dessa emotioner distribuerades the Test of Self-Conscious Affect (TOSCA) hos 67 patienter med social fobi samt hos 73 friska studenter i en kontrollgrupp. Resultaten visar ingen skillnad i skambenägenhet, men för skuldbenägenhet visade kontrollgruppen högre värden än den kliniska gruppen. Skambenägenheten hade minskat signifikant efter behandling med individuell KBT. För skuldbenägenhet visades ingen skillnad efter behandling.

Den här rapporten tar upp ett annorlunda hot mot informationssäkerheten, som inte hårdvaraeller mjukvara kan stoppa. Detta hot kallas för social-engineering, och det som gör detta hotfarligt är att de anställda och chefer i en organisation, kan hjälpa utövaren av socialengineeringutan att de själva vet om det.Det går inte att förhindra att dessa attacker sker, men man kan förhindra de negativakonsekvenserna av en sådan attack. Denna rapport tar upp hur man ska göra för att enorganisation ska kunna fortsätta med sin verksamhet, efter en attack av social-engineering. Ivärsta fall kan en attack av social-engineering innebära att ett företag aldrig återhämtar sig.Detta kan bero på att organisationen har förlorat alla sina kunder, förlorat marknads andelar,eller för att de ansvariga och viktiga personerna i organisationen har blivit dömda föroaktsamhet och sitter i fängelse.Denna rapport ska informera och få er att vara uppmärksamma och medvetna om dessahot, som ni kanske inte vet finns. Ni ska få kunskap och lära er känna igen de olikaförklädnaderna en utövare av social-engineering antar..
