The aim with the study has been to get an overview of how students perceive their learning in Group projects. The survey has been implemented with a quantitative questionnaire with qualitative elements during guidance. Students in grade 9 in a secondary school answered a survey study where they should take side to several proposals about learning and Group work. The result shows that students in general do not find learning in Group as the best learning method, but instead prefer individual learning methods when to learn new things. On the contrary, students claim that they learn best when Group members not think as they but think in another direction.

The Swedish Group contribution rules entails that Group contribution is only allowed when the parent company owns more than 90 percent in a company. To be able to deduct Group contribution some conditions has to be fulfilled. One condition is that the receiver of the contribution shall not be a resident of a foreign state. The question that arises is whether Group contribution with deductibility is consistent with the non-discrimination clause. In some Group contribution situations several tax conventions can be applicable.

The Roma people have many times, and for a long period of time been described in a negative way, as a Group of people unlike every other. Both novels and encyclopedias has been a part of this misleading discourse and therefore contributed to large misunderstandings. Also scholarly research from Sweden, and elsewhere, has featured inaccurate representations of the Roma people and altogether this has created negative attitudes towards Roma people which are still today a considerable problem.However, the last few years positive changes has taken place and today the Roma people is an official minority Group in Sweden which, among other things, has led to promising possibilities, especially in schools, for a deeper understanding of the Roma people in the future. Reading Roma literature I believe is an important part of this.Katarina Taikon and Hans Caldaras both consider themselves Roma. They also have in common that they want to give voice for the Group of Roma that has lived in Sweden since mid-nineteenth century.

Rabbits carry a high risk of anesthesia related death. This study was part of a project to develop a form of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with minimal effects on cardiac, respiratory and metabolic parameters. In the study, TIVA with sufentanil and midazolam (Group TIVA, n=9) was compared with inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane (Group SEVO, n=9) in female rabbits undergoing surgery (ovariehysterectomi). All rabbits were pre-medicated with medetomidin and carprofen before anesthesia induction. Anesthesia was induced with TIVA (2.3 ?g/ ml sufentanil, 0.45 mg/ ml midazolam) at a rate of 4 ml/ kg/ h and the mean induction dose was 0.4 ?g/ kg of sufentanil and 0.1mg/ kg of midazolam.

Psychological research concerning correction of stereotypes has mainly focused on how individuals adjust their negative attitude towards the out-Group due to the apprehension of appearing prejudiced in front of out-Grouprepresentatives. This study though, does not deal with estimations of the qualities of the out-Group; it deals with estimations of the qualities of the in-Group. Does Swedes correct their estimations of their own Group when the experiment leader is of another ethnicity and has a different colour of skin? The participants were students at Halmstad Högskola and they were all born and raised in Sweden. Half the participants got to meet a Swedish born, white skinned experiment leader, whereas the other Group got to meet an African born, dark skinned experiment leader.
