Part four is the actual concept analysis based on the three first parts. Uncertainty in the nursing context is an individual conscious experience witch is changeable and impressionable.

Bakgrund: Stroke är en av de mest förekommande sjukdomarna i västvärlden och innefattar en stor grupp patienter. Poststroke depression är den vanligaste komplikationen efter insjuknande i stroke och är underbehandlat och underdiagnostiserat. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur sjuksköterskor kan identifiera tidiga tecken på depression hos patienter som överlevt stroke. Metoden som vi använt är en litteraturstudie med artikelgranskning. Analysen vi använt oss av är en innehållsanalys baserad på Graneheim och Lundmans (2003) beskrivning.

During the past 20 years, the price of forest estates in Sweden has raised more than the price of timber. The purpose of this study is to investigate if it, despite this development, is possible to buy a forest estate based on economic grounds. Different forest parameters will also be studied to analyse their effect on the profitability. The study is done in cooperation with the company LRF Konsult. Purchase price of 34 forest estates near the coast of Norrbotten, Sweden, has been compared to yield valuation. For the valuation, guidelines from the Swedish author Lantmäteriet was used.

Syfte: I och med att det står tydligt i den nya skollagen och i Lgr 11 att elever som riskerar att inte nå kunskapsmålen ska utredas, kommer det att krävas tydlighet inom skolan vad gäller kartläggning/utredning av behov av särskilt stöd. Syftet med studien är att ta reda på om och hur pedagoger med specialpedagogiska arbetsuppgifter kartlägger elever i åk 3-9 med sent upptäckta läs och skrivsvårigheter samt hur arbetsgången är och om det finns en färdig plan för det.Teori: En elev som fungerar normalt i talspråkssammanhang men har svårt att läsa och/eller skriva har läs- och skrivsvårigheter. Glentow (2006) beskriver vad läs- och skrivsvårigheter är. Svårigheterna benämns som generella eller specifika. Specifika läs- och skrivsvårigheter måste kartläggas.

Many watersheds have lost stocks of migrating fish species because of the development of hydroelectric plants and other fragmenting barriers. The remaining stocks of migrating Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and brown trout (Salmo trutta) in River Klarälven, Sweden are five times smaller compared to one hundred years ago. A fish-trap at the hydroelectric plant in Forshaga has been vital for the continued existence of the stocks. This is the first hydroelectric plant of eight, blocking the way to the spawning grounds. Spawners are collected in the trap for both hatchery and transport by truck upstream and past seven more hydroelectric plants to the spawning grounds, where they are released for possible natural reproduction.

The public relations business has grown from almost nothing to a large international industry the last decades. Throughout the history the industry has struggled with a lot of critique and public relations has become a negative symbol for manipulation of information.

More accurate, the study will through a qualitative interview study explore how young people from a highschool in Luleå and elder people from Luleå township thinks about pubic relations, and most imortant why they have this particular view. By creating four focus groups, two with men and two with women, this also enables a comparative study between the gender. The focus groups were later analyzed and compared to two selected groups of theories on public relations, the theories were positive and critical theories compound in two categories.

An increasing global tourism offers great opportunities for Sweden as a tourist destination. However, an attractive destination requires competitive destination marketing strategies. Tourist destinations often include a complex network of stakeholders of small and large en-terprises that represent both the public and private sector. One condition for successful des-tination marketing is that all of these stakeholders collaborate in their marketing to create an integrated and powerful image. Another important aspect in terms of increasing the des-tinations competitiveness is that the local tourist companies are "export-oriented", in order to ensure that international tourists are looked after appropriately.This study has focused on the destination marketing of Stockholm.

The questionnaire used included questions from BMHE and self-produced questions. Sixtynine students answered the questionnaire.Results: Over 50 % of the respondents experience annoyance from noise in school several times a week.

Riskkapitalinvesteringar är ett relativt nytt fenomen som uppstått under de senaste årtionden och är ett sätt för bolag att få in nytt kapital till företaget. Investeringarna som görs innehar oftast en hög risk men ger en tämligen hög avkastning om projektet går som förutsett. Studien gick ut på att utforska hur riskkapitalbolag genomför investeringar samt hur bedömningar görs vid ett beslutsfattande. Det gjordes även en observation på vilka påverkningsfaktorer som existerar samt vilka effekter dessa har på investeringsprojekten.Totalt utnyttjades fyra teoretiska modeller för analys och jämförelse, samt för att framta en egen analysmodell. Det empiriska resultatet tydde på att investeringsprocesserna liknade varandra och följde teorierna, dock med en viss avvikelse.
