Oasen i arbetsplatsen Àr ett designförslag pÄ hur en restorativ zon i vÄra arbetsmiljöer skulle kunna gestaltas. Oasen Àr en tillgÀnglig plats för daglig ÄterhÀmtning. En kÀlla som Àr kravlös, stimulerar och omhÀndertar vÄra sinnen. MÄnga i arbete vÀntar pÄ att de ska kÀnna sig trötta innan de tar paus, men det behöver inte betyda att hjÀrnan inte Àr trött. Att utveckla en plats för ÄterhÀmtning leder till mer genomtÀnkta beslut och mer energi i vÄrt dagliga arbete.

In Sweden, detailed development plans (DDPs) go through a screening process to decide whether their implementation could cause significant environmental impact or not. The criteria in the legislation were studied to see if an environmental impact assessment was needed. This study also investigated 26 DDPs from 12 out of 13 of the municipalities in Östergötland and how they meet up to the demands in relevant legislation, for example the rules for Environmental Impact Assessments. Plans that concerned suburban communities and new housing were selected. The environmental issues highlighted in the plan documents were compared to selected topics from the GIS data base 'Östgötakartan' to see if the assessments made by the municipalities were reasonable judged.

Through this process we have been able toascertain which methods public libraries use to meet theneeds of those children whose disabilities relate to reading.The interviews also explored how they are working withchildren who need more time than other children does whenit comes to reading.The results of the interviews showed that the librariesprovided a lot of special adapted media.

The purpose of this study is to examine the Swedish national student organizations attitudes towards school food and the school food debate between 1957-1982. The previous research on the subject maps the historical background and development of the school meal, but lacks a contemporary student perspective from the chosen time period, not least on a deeper and more political level. The theoretical starting points in the study concern organizations and their influence on public authorities as well as student influence. These theoretical frameworks are used to describe the conditions for the currently active national student organizations; Elevf?rbundet and SECO, in the political arena.

FörstÄelsen för andra mÀnniskor som krÀvs för lyckade interaktioner, förklaras i attributionsteorierna "Theory of Mind" och "Simulation Theory. Ett vanligt men ouppklarat fenomen Àr det fundamentala attributionsfelet, dÀr beteende felaktigt attribueras till inre generella egenskaper. Fenomenet reflekterar en abstrakt mental konstruktion i enlighet med Construal Level Theorys antagande om hur psykologisk distans inverkar pÄ perception. I en modifierad Attitude Attribution Paradigm modell undersöks om spatial distans pÄverkar det fundamentala attributionsfelet och om skillnader föreligger mellan kvinnor och mÀn. Kort/lÄng spatial distans primades genom en kontroversiell text, via information om dess kompositionsplats, som fungerade som underlag för bedömning av skribentens Äsikt.

One key factor in silviculture today is sustainability. In order to achieve sustainability it may be important to restore lost nutrients to the forest after clearcutting. In order to calculate the removal, you need to know how much of different elements you will find in different tree compartments. The aim of this study was to investigate if the concentration of elements in different tree compartments of spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst) were related to the moisture conditions of the site. Five plots at Risfallet (60Âș 21ÂŽ N, 16Âș 13ÂŽ E), was placed along a moisture gradient in a 40- year spruce stand.
