The purpose of the study is to observe how the participants of the study interacted musically through verbal, non-verbal and musically resonant expressions. Verbal communication was expressed in discussion of the music's tempo and to clarify for ensemble participants from where they we?re going to play and sing. Non-verbal communication could be used to gesticulate an instrument or a melody. For example, the movement of a hand could symbolize notes on a musical stave to indicate the notes placements.

I takt med Försvarsmaktens ökade engagemang internationellt och det faktum att alla insatsförband inom Försvarsmakten ska kunna verka på alla konfliktnivåer och i en urban miljö kommer nya krav och behov på bekämpningsförmågan att uppstå avseende precisionsbekämpning.Med hjälp av ett GIS kopplat till EOI:et vid en insats i en urban miljö kan en rad vinster erhållas för att stödja artilleriet vad avser precisionsbekämpning. Exempel på sådana områden är: målverifiering, justering av målkoordinater, lägesuppfattning avseende målets närmiljö, redovisning och presentation av verkansområde inför en insats för dimensionering av verkan..

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka om dagens krisplaner i skolan innehåller de saker som teoretiker tycker är viktiga för människor när de har drabbats av en kris. För att uppfylla detta syfte samlades 47 krisplaner, vårt mål var 50 för att kunna göra en mer generell undersökning, från hela Sverige in och granskades med målet att undersöka huruvida de innehöll de aspekter som teoretikerna ansåg viktiga och om de baserat på detta kunde anses vara bra eller dåliga. Efter vår studie har vi sett en tendens på hur krisplanerna är utformade enligt de frågor vi ställde till dem. Denna tendens visar tyvärr på att krisplanerna i Sverige är undermåliga när det gäller såväl efterarbete som bemötande i kris..

We have performed a historical research, trying to establish the auditing conditions, in terms of adjustments over time. Our purpose with this essay was to demonstrate the facts behind the independence of the auditor, and hopefully give the reader some new information.Our questions at issue were: What in the debate, regarding the independence of the auditor, in concern of the scandals, is most relevant each decade?Witch aftermath has influenced the regulation regarding the independence of the auditor?What we thought was the best way to answer this question was to study a large amount of journals according to the current decade, since 1930 and forward. The journals presented different persons opinions regarding the scandals, and we used them as an instrument to analyse the regulations and after-effects of the scandals.Our conclusion is that in purpose to make the auditor independent, the debate among competent and well-informed people in the line of business has, through the decades, frequently recurred to strive towards a more homogenous auditing..

Syftet med denna uppsats a?r fra?mst att dokumentera min instudering av Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachs Sonat i e-moll fo?r traversflo?jt och basso continuo (H.551), som jag har spelat pa? blockflo?jt. Bach skrev sonaten under upplysningstiden och den a?r ett fint exempel pa? den nya stil som bro?t fram mellan barocken och klassismen, Empfindsamer Stil, med snabba karakta?rsva?xlingar och ka?nslobyten. Jag har reflekte- rat o?ver ma?nga aspekter av musikskapandet, fra?mst tempo, artikulation och dynamik.

Problemet i den här uppsatsen handlar om det börsnoterade bolaget Fenix Outdoors finansiella kommunikation på internet. Genom att på en övergripande nivå utgå ifrån redovisningsteoretiska resonemang, Stockholmsbörsens regelverk och rekommendationer samt genom att utföra en kvalitativ studie, borde det vara möjligt att på ett rationellt sätt konstruera en normativ modell för utformning av finansiell kommunikation på internet. Denna modell ska alltså fungera som ett vägledande instrument till hur Fenix Outdoor bör utforma sin hemsida. Modellen i sig ska vara av generaliserande karaktär, vilket innebär att börsnoterade bolag generellt ska kunna använda sig av modellen för att utforma sin finansiella kommunikation på internet. Den här uppsatsen bygger på en form av kvalitativ fallstudie av företaget Fenix Outdoor.

Syftet med studien var att beskriva erfarenheter av att bedöma klienters körförmåga - ur arbetsterapeuters perspektiv. Undersökningsgruppen bestod av sju arbetsterapeuter verksamma vid sjukhus i Norrbottens län. Resultatet har i förhållande till studiens syfte identifierat arbetsterapeuternas erfarenhet av att tillämpa instrument, informera samt delge resultat av körförmågebedömningar. Studien bidrar även med arbetsterapeuternas erfarenhet av ökat behov för vidareutveckling inom det aktuella ämnet. I diskussionen lyfts vikten av information fram och på vilket sätt den framhålls till klienterna.

The purpose of this thesis is to try to understand, with the help of existing theories and empirical findings, the parameters which are of importance in the development of the pricing capability. We have used a qualitative and abductive methodology approach. The empirical findings have been collected via semi-structured interviews which we have conducted via personal and telephone interviews. Seeing pricing as a capability within the company our theoretical framework mainly consists of the resource-based view and an article explaining and given proof how pricing can be seen as a capability. We also describe the most used pricing strategy today within business-to-business companies, the cost plus strategy.

Value-at-Risk (VaR) is among financial institutions a commonly used tool for measuring market risk. Several methods to calculate VaR exists and different implementations often results in different VaR forecasts. An interesting implementation is historical simulation, and the purpose of this thesis is to examine whether historical simulation with dynamic volatility updating is useful as a model to calculate VaR and how this differs in regard to type of asset or instrument. To carry out the investigation six different models are implemented, which then are tested for statistical accuracy through Christoffersens test. We find that incorporation of volatility updating into the historical simulation method in many cases improves the model.

The theme of this bachelor thesis in sociology has been developed through the perspective of ?grounded theory?, where the writers starting point touched the subject of integration in the organization Samhall in Sweden, an organization that hires disabled individuals that do not have enough working abilities to be hired any place else. From there, the methodology moved into a qualitative research through interviews with first generation immigrants hired at Samhall, where the result presented clear patterns of integration problems such as identification with an organization that does not have a normal way of working, the feelings of security which led to an unwillingness to leave the organization (which actually is the main goal of Samhall) and the stigmatized presumptions of the organization as such that makes it even harder to get a regular job on the open work market. These patterns were then put together with theories of stigma, cultural sociology and organizational identification, which three were the theoretical framework of this thesis. This study has contributed with an enlightenment of how it is to be an immigrant in a state governed organization and the consequences that follow when integrating an immigrant in a work disabled working environment. .

This study examines gender differences in the perception and utilization of social support in traditional female- and male workplaces. This study confirms results from earlier studies which suggest that there are gender differences. The survey instrument measures four types of social support: informational, instrumental, appraisal and emotional among 314 working women and men. Women report higher levels of social support on all four types. There is a significant difference in instrumental support between women working in female dominated workplaces compared to men working in male-dominated workplaces and between some of the trades.
