Introduction Malignant lymphoma is the most common haematological blood cancer diagnosis. In spring 2013 a questionnaire was handed out to patients with various haematological malignancies. The results showed that the patients requested more verbal and written information about their disease and treatment. Providing information about chemotherapy and how it affects the patient's quality of life is part of the nursing care. Communication between nurse and patient is very important to share experiences and knowledge with each other Aim The aim is to describe the information and communication patients with malignant lymphoma demand, based on their own experience, in meeting with the nurse before and during curative chemotherapy treatment at a haematology outpatient clinic.

Syftet med denna undersökning var att studera om pedagogiskt drama kunde vara en metod för att utveckla elevernas kommunikation och relationer för att stärka arbetet med värdegrunden. Undersökningen och utförandet av dramapass hade sin grund i tidigare forskning kring pedagogiskt drama, värdegrunden, kommunikation och gruppdynamik. Vi valde observation som metod för att studera de dramapass som vi utförde med vår undersökningsgrupp. Dessa observationer har vi sammanställt och analyserat med våra fokusområden som grund. Dessa fokusområden är kommunikation, relationer samt olikheter. Vårt resultat av analyserna är att utvecklingen av elevernas kommunikation och relationer är avgörande för att stärka arbetet med värdegrunden.

Studies among parents of children with disabilities have shown that they experience a higher level of parenting stress as well as a lower degree of wellbeing, compared to parents of children without disabilities. However, there is a need to further explore parents? experience on this matter within a Swedish context.

A sample of 67 parents of children with disabilities and 134 parents of children without disabilities took part in the questionnaire study.

The purpose of this masters thesis is to examine how librarians work in a literary educational role with literary circles for adults and youth, in public libraries and at school.

Forskning indikerar att det bland äldre existerar en starkare koppling mellan socialt nätverk och subjektivt välbefinnande än bland yngre grupper. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att utifrån äldres egna upplevelser kartlägga på vilket sätt mänskliga relationer anses skapa subjektivt välbefinnande. Sju deltagare i åldrarna 75-88, varav en man, intervjuades. Studien uppmärksammade ett dubbelriktat samband mellan hälsa och relationer. Hälsa, som både faktisk och upplevd kapacitet, är inte endast en grundförutsättning för vidmakthållna relationer utan bör även betraktas som ett resultat därav.

The major aim of the thesis is to describe the networks, relations and marketing of some university libraries and their customers in the year 2000. I illustrate how these issues interact and whether they have changed due to the recent development of technology and if so, how. The thesis is based on interviews with two directors of libraries and two librarians at two different libraries. A small survey with 16 questionnaires has also been performed in order to get a more general view on librarians' opinions in these questions. The thesis mainly shows that the networks in which the respondents take part primarily exist in the library sphere and towards the universities.

This study is a qualitative research and consists seven semi- structured interviews with young men between sixteen and twenty years old. The analyses of this material resulted in three themes around which the study centers: psychosocial health, sexual health and the medical establishment and the informants thoughts about the proposition of counseling for themselves and other individuals born with ARM. The study shows that these young men have a good psychosocial health and a likely reason for that is good parental relationships and close friendships.

Partnering is a collaboration method where the contractor and the client work together, based on a mutual trust towards each other and with a common goal for the project. The method originates from the United States where it was early adapted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It later spread internationally where the United Kingdom and Denmark were early in Europe to see the potential with partnering, to help aid with the issues they were having where construction projects kept running late, going over budget and lacked in quality. By using partnering you can achieve a shorter building time, improved work relationships and enhanced efficiency and cost effectiveness.
