Syftet med denna uppsats var att belysa förhållandet mellan image och tjänstekvalitet inom försäkrings-branschen. För att kunna besvara vårt syfte studerade vi skillnaden mellan förväntad och upplevd tjänst. Vi studerade även i vilken utsträckning olika faktorer påverkar den upplevda kvaliteten av en tjänst, samt vilket inflytande image har på kunden vid köp av tjänst. En enkätundersökning gjordes bland ett försäkringsbolags kunder, där vi undersökte SERVQUALS sex dimensioner samt imagens påverkan. Vår empiriska undersökning visade att det fanns en klar koppling mellan image och tjänstekvalitet.

Slutsatsen efter genomfört arbetet är att Örebro Bostäder AB bland annat har en önskvärd image av Vivalla som ett område med en unik och personlig omgivning med mindre individuella bostadsområden där det finns något för alla smaker.

Vidare har undersökningen visat att dessa önskvärda imager främst förmedlas via mun till mun-metoden, massmedia, samhälleliga åtgärder och events..

The demand for environmental assessments on buildings and energy consumption is increasing as well as the energy performance requirements for buildings. At the same time it is increasingly common with self-producers of heat and electricity generation.The main purpose with this master thesis is to investigate how time resolution affects the environmental assessment of energy consumption in office buildings connected to district heating (DH). Environmental assessments were done with both attributional LCA and consequential LCA with system expansion.Fortum´s DH system in Stockholm was analyzed and district heating production was simulated in a Matlab-model. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the production were calculated. The heat demand of the office Gångaren 16 in Stockholm was simulated in IDA ICE.

The aim of our graduate work is to study the importance of image and shape?s in children's development and learning and also the preschool teacher?s views on image and shapes.
