Hur tränare upplever att tennisspelande barn påverkas av sina föräldrars beteenden : En intervjustudie
Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur föräldrars beteenden påverkar sina aktivt tennisspelande barn i samtliga tennissammanhang ur tennistränarens perspektiv i Sverige. Tidigare studier, som är gjorda i andra länder, visar att de flesta tennistränares upplevelser med föräldrar inom tennis är positiva. De problematiska beteenden hos föräldrar som tennistränare upplevt är oftast under tävlingssammanhang då deras barn spelar match. Det finns en kunskapslucka i Sverige kring detta ämne då inga studier är gjorda kring tennisföräldrars beteenden och dess påverkan på sina barn. Fem semistrukturerade intervjuer utfördes på fem svenska tennistränare från olika delar av landet.
Genuskonstruktioner i vardagen och arbetslivet : En studie om könsroller och chefskap
Studien undersökte faktorer som kan förklara bristen på kvinnliga chefer och frågeställningarna berörde vilka egenskaper kvinnor och män tillskrev sig, om en önskvärd chef tillskrevs feminina eller maskulina egenskaper samt även könsskillnader angående balansen mellan familjeliv/arbetsliv. Ett bekvämlighetsurval gjordes på ett privat företag (n=82) och instrument som användes i undersökningen var BSRI-SE (Bem, 1974; Persson, 1999) (?=0.85) samt en omarbetad version av Work/family pressure scale (Marongiu & Ekehammar, 1999) (?=0.71). Resultatet av en One-Way ANOVA analys visade signifikanta skillnader mellan respondenterna angående femininitet (p=0,001) men inte gällande maskulinitet (p=0,103). Maskulina och feminina egenskaper var önskvärda hos en chef dock skattades maskulina egenskaper något högre än feminina egenskaper.
Tonårspojkar och identitet: om den skönlitterära läsningens betydelse
The purpose of this Masters Thesis is to explore the impact of spare time reading fiction on the identity of teenage boys, and what it really means to them.

The data collection is based on 8 interviews with boys in the age between 14 and 15 and on literature on the subject. The theoretical framework focuses on the reading theories of Joseph A. Appleyard, the transactional theory of Louise M.
Biblioteken och censuren: om försök att censurera HBT- litteratur på amerikanska folkbibliotek
The aim of this study is to look at censorship and attempted censorship of books about gay, lesbian, bisexual and transsexual (GLBT) people in public libraries in the USA. People from the public can submit formal challenges to a book at the library when they find the material offensive which can lead to those books being taken away from the library shelves. The questions asked are why GLBT- literature is being challenged, and sometimes banned, and how do the libraries deal with the challenges to the books.It is nowadays the people from the public, rather than the government or the librarians that are behind many cases of removal of books with homosexual themes. The study presents some of the fictional GLBT- literature that has been cause for much controversy in the USA. All the five examples mentioned are children?s books concerning GLBT- themes and are among the most challenged books in American libraries in the past twenty years.
Transition till demokrati: strukturella faktorers påverkan i de begränsade flerpartisystemen Kenya och Tanzania
This paper deals with institutional and structural factors' influence on democratic transition in limited multiparty regimes in Sub-Saharan Africa. Comparing the cases Kenya and Tanzania, of which the former has made a transition to democracy and the latter has not, this paper reaches the conclusion that political traditions, the coalescing of the opposition, and the elites ability to learn from the electoral process is essential for a transition to democracy. In the specific cases, the harshness of the Moi regime and the Tanzanian vision of national unity may possibly carry some explanatory power, alongside the pressure from international actors.These results have been reached through the application of a comparative case study, where democratic transition constitutes the dependent variable. It should be noted that a harsh definition of the term transition has been applied, according to which the incumbents actual loss of an election is a necessary indicator for transition. However, the Freedom House and Polity scores have been brought up as complement of this definition.
Vikaholm - Ett sätt att förena bostäder och trafik med natur, kultur och rekreation
Vikaholm är en fantastiskt trevlig plats med många fina natur-, kultur-, och
rekreationsvärden. Platsen gränsar till stadsdelen Teleborg i södra Växjö.
Examensarbetet beskriver hur det är möjligt att inrätta bostadsbebyggelse i ett
sådant område utan att förstöra dess stora värden. Arbetets intention är
istället att bostäderna skall integreras i platsens stora värden och därmed
göra platsen mer tillgänglig för flera av stadens invånare..

Om vikten av kvalitet. En studie av förändring i svensk hälso- och sjukvård.
The public health care sector has come under increasing pressure to cut down costs, maximize productivity and satisfy patients' needs during the 1990s and onwards. As a way of "getting more for less" quality management has been introduced. Originating in the private manufacturing industry, quality management has a strong focus on productivity and efficiency, aspects which are measured in quantitative terms. However, there are strong concerns that quality management is a means of speeding up the marketization of public health care by introducing core values much different from the ethic and medical norms that traditionally underpin health care organizations.This essay focuses on how quality management has been introduced to, and transformed by, public health care. A theoretical framework based on new institutionalism is constructed, and translation theories are used as a way of illustrating how the medical institutional environment, in fact, changes the concept of quality management.
Fysisk aktivitet : två skolor, två arbetssätt, en rektor
The purpose of this study is to examine how two different primary schools with the same school management district work with daily physical activity. We have chosen to conduct our investigation based on interviews. Through the interviews, we can highlight the teacher´s and principal´s interpretations of the concept regarding physical activity and find out the school´s arguments and working methods for pupil´s physical activity. These two schools work with physical activity in two different ways and the study describes the teacher´s and principal's choice of approach. Since our training is directed towards the younger ages, school years 1-3, we chose to interview teachers who work in these classes.

Omvårdnad vid infektion i bröstbenet
En infektion i bröstbenet efter hjärtkirurgi är en av de allvarligaste komplikationerna att drabbas av. Utgången kan vara dödlig men framförallt åstadkommer komplikationen ett ökat lidande för patienten. En behandlingsmetod i dag är att applicera ett tättslutande förband och aktivera ett negativt tryck för att på så vis åstadkomma ett undertryck i sårhålan. En metod som förändrat situationen för patienten. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur omvårdnadsbehovet ser ut, hur metoden negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) påverkar omvårdnaden av patienter med infektion i bröstbenet samt att belysa patientens upplevelse av situationen.
