?Killar skriver inte puttinuttigt? : En experimentell studie av genusföreställningar i textbedömningar
This thesis examines conceptions of gender revealed by people when assessing texts. The research questions are: What associations can be discerned between gender conceptions and ideas about the quality of texts? What features of content and style are perceived as female or male? The study seeks to develop a method for comparing different people?s assessments of the same text. The material was collected by means of questionnaires in which 114 informants were asked to assess three anonymous student texts and then guess the sex of the writer. The material has been analysed quantitatively by correlating the assessments of the texts with the guesses about the sex of the author, and qualitatively, as the informants? freely worded assessments of the texts were analysed for content and form with the support of assumptions about how assessments are expressed in text.

Their personal interpretation proves to be crucial when it comes to making reality of the stated goals in the curriculum, concerning actively working towards equality of opportunity between sexes.

Books for younger audiences were often written for either boys or girls, reproducing a binary understanding of gender.

Kronisk mitralisinsufficiens hos hund : samband mellan graden av klaffinsufficiens och det arteriella blodtrycket
Myxomatous mitral valve disease is a common disease in older dogs of small- to medium-size breeds. The mitral valve, and less commonly the tricuspid valve may be affected which causes them to leak blood from the ventricle to the atrium of the heart during systole. With increasing severity of mitral valve leakage the forward stroke volume ejected into the aorta decreases, which may lead to an increase in blood pressure in the pulmonary vein resulting in pulmonary edema. A decrease in cardiac output may lead to a decrease in blood pressure, but the body may respond in order to normalize the blood pressure. Franzén showed in 2007 that the systolic blood pressure was increased in dogs with severe mitral insufficiency.

Hur görs kön i vägledningssamtalet? : Samtalsanalyser av vägledningssamtal med gymnasieungdomar.
Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka hur kön görs i sex stycken vägledningssamtal på gymnasiet. Med stöd av några utvalda könsteoretikers forskning analyseras samtalen som utförts av tre stycken olika studie- och yrkesvägledare på tre stycken olika gymnasieskolor. Varje studie- och yrkesvägledare samtalade med en tjej och en kille i årskurs tre och deltagarna valde själva ut vilka elever som spelades in på band. Resultatet pekar på att studie- och yrkesvägledarens förhållningssätt delvis skiljer sig åt beroende på elevens kön. Genom att undersöka samtalsinnehållet och jämföra detta med normativa föreställningar om kön så ges olika exempel på hur kön görs i samtalen.
Musikaliskt skapande : improvisation och komposition i olika sammanhang
An analysis in the work of Martin Kellermans comic ?Rocky? of the interaction between the male and female characters and of how each of their gender are portrayed. We are going to find out if it is probable for young adults to be affected by any eventual gender-stereotypes that we can find in ?Rocky? or if ?Rocky? consolidates a stereotypical image of men and women that young adults might have developed through different media. We conduct this analys by first reading through random seleceted ?Rocky? books and present some of the comic strips where men and women interact with each other or discuss the opposite sex..
Handledning ? kan den stärka och utveckla ledarskapet?
Handledning och dess effekter har tidigare belysts inom såväl utbildnings- som yrkesprofessionella
sammanhang. Handledning innebär reflektion över personligt upplevda arbetsrelaterade situationer
och tidigare forskning inom området har visat att handledning kan stimulera till professionell och
personlig utveckling. Vid bearbetandet av reflektioner i handledningen kan Orlandos omvårdnadsteori
utgöra en lämplig grund. Teorin är en interaktionsteori, vilket innebär reflektion över vad som händer i
det enskilda mötet mellan sjuksköterska-patient och den grundar sig på frågor som berör upplevelse,
tanke, känsla och handling. Reflektion är ett centralt begrepp även i handledningsprocessen och
likartade frågor bearbetas i mötet mellan handledare-handledda och kan väckas i mötet mellan chefmedarbetare.
Syftet med detta arbete var att belysa huruvida handledning kan utgöra ett redskap som
stärker och utvecklar ledarskapet hos första linjens chefer.
