This essay concerns the interpretation of house plans in three-aisled longhouses and hall-buildings, in Scandinavia during Iron Age. Full scale house reconstructions need a better basis of interpretations to understand the patterns of roof supporting post holes in excavated house plans. This has led to the thesis, presented here, that the layout of house plans during Iron Age is based on geometrical proportions. In order to prove this, geometric house plans were applied and compared with excavated house plans in 11different case studies, including the fortification of Fyrkat Denmark. It was found that all house plans in the case studies indicate, that the geometrical proportions 1:2, 1:3 and 2:3 of a given circle must have been used for the basic layout of the roof supporting post holes, using a compass and a straightedge.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relation between the Big Five personality traits Extraversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism and the five conflict styles developed by Thomas-Kilmann: Accommodating, Avoiding, Compromising, Collaborating and Competing. The participants consisted of 128 students of the Linnaeus University in Växjö. A questionnaire consisting of two parts were used for this study: Part one consist of a personality-test developed from Lewis R. Goldberg?s Big-five scale, and part two where the participant is asked to fill out Thomas-Kilmanns conflict style test.

This report is a study in voltagelevel in connection with regeneration of brake energy from the tramtype M31 in Gothenburg.In the act of braking, the tram M31 uses electrical braking where the electrical motors generates energy and if possible send it back to the overheadline, where other trams in the nearby can use this regenerated energy for its own driving force. In cases where no other energyconsumers are located in the same section, there is a resistance witch task is to convert this energy into heat. The regulation of this resistance appears to cause an increase in the voltagelevel into far too high levels.Investigations of the trams regulationequipment and its construction have been done. Further have measurements on the overheadline been performed in order to map the voltagevariations during a longer period of time.The result have been showing that the voltagelevel during regeneration often is as high as 880V-920V, more extreme values have not been observed in a large scale. The values are especially high compared to the nominal voltagelevel.

Vår empiriska fallstudie syftar till att undersöka hur lärare arbetar för att åstadkomma ett behagligt klimat mellan eleverna i de tidigare åren, samt lärarnas motiv för detta. För att ta reda på det har vi gjort kvalitativa intervjuer med tio lärare och genom dessa har vi kommit fram till att läraren har en betydelsefull roll för hur det sociala samspelet mellan eleverna i klassen fungerar. Studien har visat att kommunikation och samtalsmetoder är ett övervägande arbetssätt hos lärarna, även om det också förekommer andra tillvägagångssätt, så som fredlig beröring, arbete med bilder, avslappning och konflikthantering. Många lärare menar även på att hur de är som personer avspeglas på gruppen. I likhet med dessa resultat fann vi i litteraturstudien att utvecklandet av elevers sociala och emotionella förmågor påverkar det sociala samspelet mellan eleverna på ett positivt sätt, samt att det har en inverkan på inlärningssituationen.

This paper is a critique of an article in the Swedish magazine Filosofisk Tidskrift (Philosophical Magazine), in which professor Per Bauhn maintains that there is something wrong with having a group perspective in moral and political matters. In this article Bauhn makes three conclusions. The first one is that you violate Hume's law if you draw the conclusion that something is an oppression only from descriptive premises, which for example communitarians does according to Bauhn. He argues that ?oppression? is a normative term, and therefore it requires at least one normative premise.

?Yrkeskvalitet Mellan Raderna? syftar till att kartlägga hur den svenska lärarkåren porträtteras i två stora dagstidningar, Sydsvenskan och DN. Analysen utförs i två steg genom en lättare innehållsanalys och en huvudanalys bestående av kritisk diskursanalys på makro- och mikrostrukturell nivå. Omgärdar gör också en komparativ ansats. De metodologiska vägvalen har sin grund i tre teorier; andra nivåns agenda-setting, sociologisk karaktärsteori och ideologikritik/kritisk diskursanalys. Jag drar slutsatsen att det finns en radikal skillnad i de båda dagstidningarnas porträttering av den svenska läraren.

The Go Down Arts Centre is a proposal for a new building to an existing organisation in Nairobi, Kenya. The proposal relates to the scale of the city by making a statement on a future urban path, and by welcoming the city in to the building. The proposal houses both activities affiliated to Go Down, such as studios and rehersal rooms, as well as opportunities for the visitor to meet and interact with the culture produced at Go Down, both in formal and informal settings. The building is closed to its surroundings, apart from a grand entrance towards the urban path. There, the city passes through the building to an inner courtyard, where the communication to all the rooms and activities takes place.

Allt fler minderåriga får tag på alkohol och dricker sig fulla, debutåldern ligger på omkring 14 år. När ett barn som under påverkan råkar illa ut haglar beskyllningarna tvärs genom samhället om vad som egentligen föräldrar och andra vuxna kan göra för ungdomarna och deras handlingar. Vår undersökning syftade till att klargöra just den frågan. Vad som görs i samhället för minderåriga och deras alkoholvanor och framförallt hur och varför allt yngre ungdomar dricker sig berusade. Genom kvalitativ undersökning i form av intervjuer med människor från alla de grupper som är inblandade i ämnet kunde vi få fram ett resultat, som tillsammans med de teoretiska utgångspunkterna som användes, besvarade de frågeställningar som var väsentliga för helheten.

This report is a study in voltagelevel in connection with regeneration of brake energy from the tramtype M31 in Gothenburg.In the act of braking, the tram M31 uses electrical braking where the electrical motors generates energy and if possible send it back to the overheadline, where other trams in the nearby can use this regenerated energy for its own driving force. In cases where no other energyconsumers are located in the same section, there is a resistance witch task is to convert this energy into heat. The regulation of this resistance appears to cause an increase in the voltagelevel into far too high levels.Investigations of the trams regulationequipment and its construction have been done. Further have measurements on the overheadline been performed in order to map the voltagevariations during a longer period of time.The result have been showing that the voltagelevel during regeneration often is as high as 880V-920V, more extreme values have not been observed in a large scale. The values are especially high compared to the nominal voltagelevel.

Titel 9A ? Klassen som ingen sågFörfattare Anna Nygren & Johanna RosénKurs Examensarbete i Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, MK1500, Institutionen för journalistik och masskommunikation vid Göteborgs universitet.Termin Vårterminen 2008Handledare Ingela WadbringSidantal 48 inklusive bilagor & 42 exklusive bilagorSyfte Syftet med undersökningen är att se vilken betydelse SVT:s dokumentärserie Klass 9A har för yrkesverksamma pedagogers dagliga arbete.Metod Kvalitativa metod i form av fokusgruppesintervjuerMaterial Fyra fokusgruppsintervjuer med yrkesverksamma ämnespedagoger i Göteborgsområdet.Huvudresultat Det vi har kunnat se som genomgående i alla våra intervjuer är att alla respondenterna, på ett eller annat sätt, har tänkt igenom sin egen arbetssituation på den skola de arbetar på efter att de sett Klass 9A. Pedagogerna har reflekterat över sina egna pedagogiska färdigheter. Detta oavsett om de har varit positivt eller negativt inställda till serien eller de nytillsatta pedagogernas arbetsmetoder i klassrummet. Klass 9A har väckt många frågor och tankar kring pedagogik, etik, moral och elevkontakt samt inspirerat till en viktig samhällsdebatt om dagens skolsituation.

Studier har visat att frivilligt barnlösa individer stereotypt har betraktats vara olyckliga och otillfredsställda, något som inte har fått vetenskapligt stöd. Syftet med den här tvärsnittsstudien var att undersöka om det föreligger några skillnader i livskvalitet och livstillfredsställelse mellan frivilligt barnlösa personer och föräldrar i den svenska populationen. Forskningsfrågan undersöktes med en enkät som bestod av självskattningsskalorna QOLI (Quality Of Life Inventory) och SWLS (Satisfaction With Life Scale). 130 deltagare genomförde studien varav 54 är frivilligt barnlösa individer och 76 är föräldrar. Studien visade att det inte finns några signifikanta skillnader mellan grupperna med avseende på livskvalitet och livstillfredsställelse.
