Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka vilka intentioner gymnasieungdomar som går teoretiska program i Luleå har för att börja arbeta direkt efter gymnasiet samt vilka faktorer som påverkar deras intentioner. De faktorer som undersöks är attityder, subjektiva normer och upplevd beteendekontroll som, enligt Icek Ajzen?s (1991) teori om planerat beteende (TPB), påverkar intentionen till beteendet. Undersökningen genomfördes med en enkät utformad efter Ajzen?s (2002) instruktioner, vilken besvarades av 50 elever vid Luleå Gymnasieby.

The paper aims to examine how the wives of men with dementia experience their lives and how they perceive support from the society. The paper also aims to highlight the family care consultants´ work and views on support for families of people with dementia.Three spouses of people with dementia and three family care consultants were interviewed and the results were analyzed using Antonovsky's (1991) three theoretical concepts; comprehensibility, manageability and meaningfulness that comes from his theory Sense of coherence.The results show that the three wives whose men suffered from dementia spend most of their time, effort and energy on their husbands. They do not have time to think about their own needs and what support they feel they could use for themselves. They do not think about themselves as caregivers, they are spouses.Family care consultants are well aware of the importance of meeting and see the relatives in their lives, and denounces the importance of a support designed individually. Family care consultants understand that the most important and the best support society can provide a family care giver is that their close ones are well taken care of and given good care..

This thesis aimed to describe how the ideological dividing line concerning the welfare state has changed between the two largest governmental parties in Sweden, the Social Democrats and the Moderaterna, during 1990 to 2010. The scientist Mark Blyth points out that ideas are important instruments for structural and institutional change by identifying ideas as weapons, blueprints and cognitive locks, which were being used in the theoretical framework. The empirical data was made by a qualitative analysis of the parliamentary speeches and debates from both parties held every year. The results shows that the budgetary law passed in 1997 became a new institutional blueprint, which changed the political conditions for the Social Democrats. Furthermore, the results point to a change in the Moderaterna?s rhetoric concerning the welfare state to a more pragmatic view. .

Kompetensområdet sjuksköterskans arbetsledning av omvårdnadsarbetet är ett tämligen outforskat ämne. Mer kunskap om läkare- och undersköterskors syn på vad som innefattas i sjuksköterskans arbetsledning skulle kunna bidra till ett bättre samarbete som på sikt kan gynna omvårdnadsarbetets utveckling och därigenom även patienten. Syftet med studien är att få ökad kunskap om läkare och underskö-terskors syn på vad som innefattas i kompetensområdet sjuksköterskans arbets-ledning av omvårdnadsarbetet. Metoden som användes var en empirisk intervju-undersökning där urvalet bestod utav fyra läkare och fyra undersköterskor. Mate-rialet analyserades med innehållsanalys, inspirerad av Burnard (1991).

This paper addresses the need to review the modern presentation of textile archaeology in museums. It is time to look at textiles in archaeology with new eyes. The reality behind archaeological textilestudy is holistic, embracing many different aspects of society. The presentation of textiles has in my opinion become old-fashioned. I will show in my paper that Jonathan Adams? `seven constraints´ model, developed for research on ancient ships, can also be applied to textile research.

The objective of this essay has been to show how the image of the Soviet Union in ?Alla tiders historia? differs in the 1989 and 2004 editions of the book. To explain these differences I have used a discourse analytic perspective, mainly inspired by Michel Foucault and his philosophical theories of the constructions of objects, and also Faircloughs critical discourse analysis inspired by Gramsci.In this paper the two editions of ?Alla tiders historia? are presented with quotes which are then analysed from using my theoretical framework. In the 1989 edition three themes emerged: continuity, undecidability and ambivalence, which together present an image of a Soviet Union which is not clearly defined within the political discourse.In the 2004 edition this struggle over the discourse has been settled and the Soviet Union?s position as a dictatorship has been determined, at the same time as the Soviet Union is put in a negative relationship with Czar Russia and is connected with Nazi Germany.

AbstractThe purpose of this essay is to investigate the views Swedish elementary school teachers produce on the subject of ethics. The teachers? thoughts on selection among ethical notions is described and also how these notions are assessed. The essay proceeds from the central content and the knowledge requirement in the syllabus of religious knowledge.The empirical survey is based on qualitative scientific interviews with four teachers employed in grades 4-6 at different schools.The teachers find ethics in its current state of the syllabus hard to define and they find encounters with parents and pupils difficult in their tasks. The selection of ethics is decided by previously planned basic values education or from conflicts erupting during schools hours.

Statistik från Arbetsmiljöverket visar att arbetsskador orsakade av stress ökar.I Folkhälsorapport från 2001 kan man läsa att anställda inom kommuner och landsting har haft en särskilt negativ hälsoutveckling under 1990-talet. Ett ökat antal omorganisationer, ofta i kombination med besparingar och neddragning av personal torde ha bidragit till vissa former av ohälsa. Lärare och personal inom vård och omsorg har troligen upplevt de största förändringarna, eftersom man bytt arbetsgivare. Vård- och omsorgspersonal har delvis bytt till halvprivat verksamhet. Vissa har gått från landstings- till primärkommunala anställningar.

Varje år insjuknar mellan 25- 30 000 personer i stroke i Sverige. Cirka hälften av de som drabbas av stroke får ätsvårigheter. Svårigheter med att äta kan i sin tur leda till malnutrition. Syftet med denna studie är att belysa strokepatienters upplevelser av ätsvårigheter i samband med stroke. Studien har genomförts som en litteraturstudie, genom systematisk granskning och sammanställning av vetenskapliga artiklar skrivna mellan åren 1990-2007.

Den här uppsatsen är en studie av läromedel från 1960-talet och fram till idag. Syftet med min uppsats är att undersöka hur ämnesområdet ateism tas upp samt i vilken omfattning man gör det i läroböcker från 1960-talet fram till idag.Det jag kommit fram till utifrån mina frågeställningar är följande:Av alla de läroböcker som jag tagit upp i undersökningen är det bara de två böckerna från 1960-talet som låter ateismen få ha en egen rubrik.I de böcker jag nämner från 70-talet och fram till 90-talet tycker jag att de kapitel som tar upp ateism har en viss negativ laddning i sitt uttryck. Religionslös, religionskritik och frågan: ?Finns Gud? Till skillnad från dessa böcker så har läroböckerna från 1990-talet och framåt kapitel, där man tar upp ateism, som har ett positivare uttryck. ?Livets mening?, ?Sökande efter en livskompass?, ?Livsåskådningar utan Gud? och ?Religioner och livsåskådningar?.Ateismen får även en negativ innerbörd när den förknippas så intimt med marxismen och därmed också med de hemskheter som gjorts i marxismens namn.

The overall purpose with this thesis has been to study the strategic development of the Swedish Green Party, Miljöpartiet de Gröna. From its first appearance in the Swedish parliament 1988 to its decision to cooperate with the Social Democrats and the Left Party in 1998, the Greens has gone from a radical antiparty to a pragmatic support party. The analysis has concentrated towards identifying the causal factors behind this strategic move made by the Greens, and to determine how this party change has affected the party's strategic goals. In order to do so, a qualitative case study has been conducted where an integrated theoretical approach has been used. By studying official statements and internal debates the thesis concludes that the strategic change made by the Greens was due to the evolvement of a new dominant coalition of within the party.

The basic view on children has change radically in the swedish society during the last century. From beeing seen as ruled by internal evil powers that only church could help controling later on the children should be brought up as citizen well-behaved and capable of work with help of the state's control. Today we see the child as competent and equal, and through Swedens adoption of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child in year 1990, Sweden as a country undertakes itself to always see to the child´s greatest in all decision-making process concerning the child and also vouch for that the rights stated in the convention are beeing fulfild.Working with the convention in a such way that it's intention becomes reality in educational activities requires instruments for the pedagogues. During the years between 1980 and 1990 a number of different methods and programmes were developed with staring-points in the interplay between the child and the adult.
