Entrepreneurship is a subject of growing attention, especially within public policy, media and research. Many studies have been done, but the subject of entrepreneurial exit has to a large extent been ignored. The aim of this study has been to investigate how entrepreneurs at an early stage in their career think about exit within a near future, and what factors influence their attitude towards exit. The study was conducted through a survey answered by 253 entrepreneurs active within business incubators in Sweden. Based on previous research on entrepreneurial intentions, a model of exit intentions was developed, and tested against several other factors.

Syftet med denna intervjustudie var att beskriva närståendes upplevelser när en person överlevt hjärtstopp och som därefter genomgått hypotermibehandling. Åtta intervjuer ligger till grund för studien. Dataanalys genomfördes med en kvalitativ tematisk innehållsanalys. Analysen resulterade i åtta kategorier som sammanfördes i tre teman: att livet stannar upp, att känna tillit och stöd och att känna oro inför framtiden. Resultatet visade att deltagarna upplevde händelsen som skrämmande då personen helt oväntat drabbats av ett hjärtstopp.

The aim of this thesis is to examine how different kinds of information seekers are evaluating information quality in the information flow online. To address the problem stated, qualitative interviews were carried out with a librarian as a reference person and a group consisting of journalists and scientists. The result of the study implies that the reference person is well aware of the strategies employed by her in the search process. However, the respondents are not aware of the strategies they are actually using. An explanation is the respondents lack of education in information seeking.

The aim of this study was to describe how body language of humans affects the domestic dog (Canis familiaris) and how it can be implanted in the stressed situation that occur at an animal hospital. The subject is brought to notice because the author has experienced that dogs can get more stressed when a stressed and nervous owner is attending. Humans affect each other through posture, facial expression, voice and movement, and are often driven by their emotions, which can differentiate the verbal communication from the non-verbal communication. This occurs both consciously and unconsciously. Every human uses body language but not everyone knows how it is used or how to understand it.

Möbius sequence is a rare condition where affected cranial nervesoften lead to speech deviations due to reduced oral motor functioning. Thisstudy aimed to survey speech deviations, compensatory strategies and selfperceptionof speech in seven people with Möbius sequence, and to linkthese to oral motor function and intelligibility. Additionally, the immediateeffects of smile surgery were investigated in one person. The abovementioneddomains were studied instrumentally, perceptually and throughstructured interviewing. All participants displayed reduced oral motorfunction.

The flagellate Giardia intestinalis has been known to cause diarrhea in both man and dog. Results from epidemiological studies have indicated that transmission of the parasite from dog to man is plausible even though that route of infection has yet to be shown. Several international studies have shown that the parasite frequently occurs in asymptomatic dogs. In Sweden the prevalence of Giardia in healthy dogs is not known though. In this study, faecal samples were collected at two separate occasions from 21 litters and 21 bitches showing no symptoms from the gastrointestinal tract. The samples from each litter were pooled but the samples from the bitches were analyzed individually.

I Sverige drabbas årligen mellan 6 000 till 10 000 personer av ett hjärtstopp. Majoriteten av personerna som drabbas av ett hjärtstopp får det utanför sjukhuset. Ambulanspersonal är de som larmas först ut till platsen för att påbörja det akuta omhändertagandet av en person med hjärtstopp. Effektiv behandling av hjärtstopp prehospitalt innefattar bland annat hjärt- och lungräddning (HLR). Ett hjärtstopp är en krävande uppgift för ambulanssjuksköterskan då det gäller att snabbt bedöma och påbörja behandlingen.

De grundläggande förutsättningarna för ingående av äktenskap enligt svensk rätt är frivillighet. Kärlek är anledningen till att folk väljer att ingå äktenskap, ändå ser man klart och tydligt i statistiken nedanför att det är långt ifrån alla som känner att de får välja livspartner.Den 1 juli 2014 började nya civil- och straffrättsliga bestämmelser att gälla om vissa äktenskapsfrågor. Dessa bestämmelser syftar till att stärka skyddet mot barn- och tvångsäktenskap, där två nya brott infördes i brottsbalken. Dessa brott har brottsrubriceringen äktenskapstvång och vilseledande till tvångsäktenskapsresa. Brottsrubriceringen äktenskapstvång avser den som genom olaga tvång eller utnyttjande av utsatta omständigheter lyckas få en person att ingå ett äktenskap eller en äktenskapsliknande överenskommelse.

Damages have four main functions: reparation, placing of the costs, distribution of the losses and prevention. The rules about damages evolved before liability insurance had the extension it has today, 97 % of the Swedish populations is covered by liability insurance, since it is included in the comprehensive household insurance. Liability insurance should be looked at in the light of the damage rules, but the rules about damages are adapted to the insurance possibilities.The Law of damages contains, though the general adjustment article 6:2, the adjustment article 2:4 about children and the adjustment article 2:5 about the mentally ill, a possibility to adjust a non reasonable damage claim. If the liability insurance covers the damages no adjustment is made. Even when the adjustment articles are being used the damages is a heavy burden for the person who is liable for the damages.

We?re all aware that technology progresses forward with giant leaps on a daily basis. In one-way or another this affects us in our everyday life. It can affect us in the way we?re shopping, communicating, researching, planning future events or how we choose to be entertained. That the web is an increasingly stronger tool for communicating in more or less every type of business is becoming more evident for people.

Alzheimers sjukdom är den vanligaste av alla demenssjukdomarna. Den kallas även för de anhörigas sjukdom, eftersom en hel familj drabbas om någon familjemedlem får denna diagnos. Att drabbas av Alzheimers sjukdom kan innebära en stor förändring för alla inblandade. När en människa drabbas av kronisk sjukdom, förändras hela livssituationen, både för den drabbade och dennes familj. Syftet med studien var att beskriva hur de närmast anhöriga upplever att leva med en person drabbad av Alzheimers sjukdom.

During consultation procedures between forest owners and the Sámi, data on, e.g., reindeer lichen biomass on the current site is needed. Hitherto, the existing methods of measuring lichen cover and biomass has been either objective methods such as the Point Intercept method, which is time consuming, or some sort of subjective visual estimation, which is faster but less accurate. However, both these methods are sensitive to different observers and/or to different inventories. This paper addresses the further development and evaluation of a photographical inventory method that uses colour distribution in images to estimate lichen biomass. During the autumn of 2011 six different locations, with different grazing pressure and lichen cover, in Norrbotten county were inventoried using both the Point Intercept method and the photographical method, complemented with collection of biomass samples.

My purpose with this essay was to study if there was any difference in competence between preschool teachers and child minders at a preschool outside of Stockholm. To determine what the differences consisted of, if there was any. The questions I wanted answered were as follows: Are there any differences in competence between preschool teachers and child minders? Do the two different occupations have different ways at looking at what the children need and their abilities? Do they see that they have different skills depending on what occupation they belong to? What do they believe that the people from the other occupation contribute to the preschool which compliments their own working skills?I used a qualitative method which included interviews and observations to find out the answers to these questions. My results from these interviews and observations indicated that experience, personality and attitudes are very important as well as education.

Under 2010 avled cirka 90 000 personer i Sverige, varav 80 procent bedömdes ha behov av palliativ vård. Palliativ vård ges oberoende av diagnos och ålder under personers sista tid i livet. Den palliativa perioden varierar, beroende från person till person. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur både sjuksköterskan och patienten ser på autonomi och värdighet vid palliativ vård. Metoden som valts är litteraturöversikt med kvalitativa artiklar som kvalitetsgranskats.
