Syftet med uppsatsen var att behandla förhållandet mellan inhyrda konsulter och ordinarie personal. Förhållandet avsåg att mäta skillnaderna mellan dessa två anställningsformer i förtroende för de inhyrda. Målet var sedan att se om förtroendet kunde förklaras med hjälp utav upplevelsen av tillhörighet eller upplevelsen av hot. Undersökningen utfördes med en kvantitativ ansats och resultatet togs fram med hjälp av SPSS, genom en linjär regression som gjordes på sekundärdata gjord av en samling forskare på Mittuniversitetets samhällsinstitution. Urvalet bestod av 137 svarande på en enkät som skickats till sammanlagt 237 personer, vilket gav en svarsfrekvens på 50,2%.

Den svenska bostadsmarknaden har under en längre tid varit ett hett diskussionsämne i media. Regelbundet beskrivs den svenska bostadsmarknaden som övervärderad. Ovissheten kring var marknaden befinner sig värderingsmässigt, väcker intresse att undersöka hur en bostadsrätts olika egenskaper påverkar dess värde, alltså vad individer är beredda att betala för i en bostadsrätt.?Hur mycket är konsumenten villig att betala för olika egenskaper hos en bostadsrätt, så som: boarea, våningsplan, hiss och antal rum??I studien utförs en empirisk tvärsnittsanalys, med observationer insamlade från och med första augusti till och med sista oktober 2014. Bostadsrätterna som är inkluderade i studien är geografiskt belägna i Stockholms innerstad (Kungsholmen, Norrmalm, Södermalm, Vasastan samt Östermalm).

Syftet med uppsatsen är att se hur den svenska lagstiftningen skulle kunna förändras för att öka investeringarna på PE-marknaden. I uppsatsen undersöks om det föreligger en statistisk signifikans genom linjär regression hos ett antal lagregler och går kvalitativt igenom den befintliga svenska lagstiftningen för att finna orsaksvariabler och deras påverkan. Det teoretiska perspektivet utgår ifrån LaPorta et.al. Law & Finance-studier samt EVCA:s årliga rapporter gällande den europeiska private equity-marknaden. Resultaten påvisar att de legala frågorna inverkar på PE-marknadens storlek.

Kvicksilver är ett av de farligaste miljögifter vi känner till. Regeringen har därför arbetat fram ett förslag till förbud mot kvicksilver som kemikaliereagens från år 2004. Detta förbud innebär att många laboratorier måste byta analysmetoder. Vid analys av CODCr används kvicksilversulfat för att minska interferens från klorid. Bravikens pappersbruk använder en CODCr-metod som innehåller kvicksilver.

C3LOOPS is an application for DJs and VJs based on surface interaction. A system is said to be based on surface interaction if it presents content on a two dimensional, endless surface that a user navigates through zoom, pan and incremental text filtering where processing is tightly coupled with the content without breaking the workflow. C3LOOPS is designed to encourage improvisation and collaboration. During improvisation changes occur rapidly. Allowing navigation through time as well as the two spatial dimensions of an interaction surface the possibility of unlimited undo operations opens up.

Earlier research has shown that young and adult citizens in Europe participate in politics in different ways. While adult citizens participate in more traditional ways, non-traditional ways are more frequent among younger citizens. Moreover, issue-based participation increases when Europeans turn away from mainstream politics. Citizens in the European Union EU-15 between 15-24 ages are likely to be ?critical? citizens of a working democracy compared to people in older ages (Sloam, 2016).

This paper is a literature review that examines how good mental calculation skills benefit pupils, which could work as a valuable learning tool for future teachers. The study addresses four key questions: ?What are the advantages of proficient mental calculations??, ?What strategies exist for mental calculation skills??, ?How can teachers accommodate their teaching to develop pupils? mental calculation skills?? and ?What has arithmetic looked like in different eras and what algorithms have been used??. Through literature searches in search engines, scientific articles were found, which formed the basis for the result segment. This was divided into two parts: A historical and a didactic overview.

This study examines affective polarization among first-time voters in Sweden and the factors that explain variation in its levels. Affective polarization refers to the extent to which individuals hold negative feelings toward political opponents. Drawing on social identity theory and theories of ideological polarization, the study tests two hypotheses regarding why first-time voters are expected to display lower levels of affective polarization compared to older voters. Affective polarization is operationalized as the dispersion of individuals' evaluations of political parties and analyzed using visual graphs alongside bivariate and multivariate regression models to identify underlying mechanisms. The results show that first-time voters, on average, exhibit slightly lower levels of affective polarization than older voters.

Companies worldwide strive to reduce costs and capital tied up in stock. At the same time, the need for short delivery times requires efficient logistic flows. In order to meet customer demands an efficient warehouse activity is required.The purpose of this study is to develop a model for designing a warehouse system regarding to working environment and safety. The model is primarily designed and based on literature reviews of scientific articles and books, own knowledge and the authors previous work experience in the industry.The thesis has been done at Sandvik AB, the department Precision strip in Sandviken. Sandvik is a high-technology engineering group with advanced products and a world-leading positions within selected areas.

In the care for the critically ill patient the next of kin is of great importance. Their support, love and care for the patient, increases the wellbeing and makes a connection to the patient?s normal lifeworld. For the next of kin to be able to be that support the next of kin needs to be helped to maintain the basic need of for example their sleep, food, hygiene and psychosocial support. The critical care nurse must see to the patient?s whole lifeworld which includes their next of kin.The aim of the study was to identify the resources available for the next of kin in intensive care units in Sweden.

I denna rapport undersöktes S&P 500 Energy Index genom multipel regressionsanalys. Modellerframställdes genom regression och baserades på data hämtad från börsen. Modellerna angavs iprocentuell ändring respektive absolut ändring. Validitet för varje enskild kovariat testades och en risknivå avgjorde om en kovariat skulle inkluderas i modellen eller inte. Detta ledde till två modeller med bättre kurvanpassning till den givna mängd data över det valda energiindex.

The purpose of this essay is to raise and discuss children?s problems with concentration in two areas, stress and Adhd, where the symptoms are similar to each other. During recent years I have experienced how "difficult" children increasingly have been diagnosed and "stamped" with various combinations of letters. Because of my own children?s diagnoses, this has raised my interest in studying children´s modes of expression and behavior, and I have come to question whether many children who receive a diagnosis of Adhd really are afflicted by it.

Lack of political interest and will to deal with human rights violations carried out under the civil- military dictatorship, has characterized the transition and post-transition in Uruguay. The systematic use of torture, arbitrary imprisonments and forced disappearances in the relatively small country created a culture of fear that has been present through out the post-transition phase. Human rights groups have been central actors in the fight for truth and justice and against impunity. This study analyzes how these groups multiple democracy-building functions have contributed to democratic development. It also analyses how the democracy-building functions have been constrained by the political context.

Studien baseras på en kvantitativ metod med starka kvalitativa inslag. Syftet med studien är att med hjälp av ekonomisk teori och ekonometriska modeller försöka bestämma efterfrågeelasticiteten på Internetpokermarknaden. Vi har i studien utgått från att efterfrågefunktionen på Internetpokermarknaden är en konstant elastisk nyttofunktion. Då priset i Internetpoker är en komplicerad variabel att skatta konstruerade vi en prisformel. För att kunna vikta de olika variablerna som ingick i prisdefinitionen genomförde vi en surveyundersökning.
