Miljöbeskrivande adjektiv och stilistiska figurer : En studie av miljöskildringen i Frances Hodgson Burnetts berättelse Den hemliga trädgården
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka typer av miljöbeskrivande adjektiv och stilistiska figurer som används för att ge en bild av de olika miljöerna i Frances Hodgson Burnetts berättelse Den hemliga trädgården. De miljöer som analyseras är huset Misselthwaite Manor, heden, trädgårdarna och den hemliga trädgården. Metoden som används i uppsatsarbetet är en stilistisk metod som innebär en närläsande intensivanalys av den enskilda texten. Även kvantitativa och kvalitativa aspekter inkluderas i metoden.Analysen visar att följande typer av adjektiv förekommer i samtliga miljöskildringar: adjektiv som beskriver dimension, värdering, tillstånd och färg. Adjektiv som beskriver ålder hittas i miljöerna huset Misselthwaite Manor, trädgårdarna och den hemliga trädgården och de som beskriver sinnesstämning hittas i skildringarna av trädgårdarna och den hemliga trädgården.
Hållbar renovering : En studie avseende social hållbarhet
SAMMANFATTNINGI denna uppsats studerar jag social hållbarhet i djupare bemärkelse i syfte att undersöka och definiera åtgärder och arbetssätt som skulle kunna lämpa NCCs byggkoncept - Hållbar renovering. I min studie utgår jag ifrån akademisk forskning och statliga utredningar (som avser bl a miljonprogrammet) samt bostadsområdet Orrholmen som en inspirationskälla. Mitt empiriska material erhålls från intervjuer med NCC, Karlstads Bostads AB och brunnberg & forshed AB.I min analys fokuserar jag på hållbar utveckling, social hållbarhet, brister och potential avseende miljonprogrammet och dess gårdsmiljö, gemensamma och offentliga rum, blandning av bostäder och verksamheter, olika upplåtelseformer, sociala hållbarhetsåtgärder och förslag på fysisk utformning samt analys av bostadsområdet Orrholmen.Sammanfattningsvis visar erhållna slutsatser att social hållbarhet är en dynamiska och komplex dimension och likaså åtgärderna. Kärnan i social hållbarhet är människan och därtill även främjandet av hennes välfärd.De åtgärder som ämnas komplettera Hållbar renovering, bör väljas och bearbetas med omsorg. Brukarnas deltagande före en totalrenovering i kombination med omhändertagande av de faktiska problemen i bostadsområdena skapar positiva och gynnsamma resultat.De allra viktigaste åtgärderna är blandning av såväl bebyggelse och boendegrupper samt låg skala av bebyggelse och blandning av olika upplåtelseformer.Omätbara värden såsom identitet, platskänsla, skönhet och deltagande skapar mervärde och berikar områden.

There is an irregularity in the interregional migration in Sweden. An increasing proportion ofthe population is drawn to the metropolitan areas, which creates problems for the smallermunicipalities and towns when their population declines. At the same time, our whole societyis faced with a great challenge: we need to redirect towards a sustainable development, wherethe environmental issues are discussed and dealt with to secure that all present and futuregenerations are given equal opportunities to live a good life.The aim of this study is to, focusing mainly on the environmental dimension of thesustainability concept, examine the attractivity of housing with sustainability claims. Toanswer this, three research questions were used:? Was the migration motive to reduce their environmental impact a part of the decision tomove, among migrants who had moved to housing with sustainability claims?? If the motive was a part of the decision, how much impact did it have compared to othermigration motives?? Which factors in housing aiming at sustainability are considered important by peopleliving in housing with sustainability claims?The research questions have been answered using quantitative data, gained in the form of selfadministeredquestionnaires which were distributed in four different residential areas withsustainability claims in the county of Västra Götaland, Sweden.

Maskuliniteter och jämställdhetsarbete - En genusvetenskaplig granskning av metodmaterialet allan för samtalsgrupper inom Rädda Barnen och Rädda Barnens Ungdomsförbund
Rädda Barnen och Rädda Barnens Ungdomsförbund har ett projekt som heter allan. Det är ett jämställdhetsarbete med samtalsgruppsverksamhet för fjortonåriga killar. Uppsatsen granskar metodmaterialet för dessa samtalsgrupper ur ett genusvetenskapligt perspektiv med särskilt fokus på maskuliniteter, maktordningar och jämställdhet. Metoden som används kallas idé- eller ideologianalys, och mer specifikt utförs en innehållslig idéanalys.Som utgångspunkt fungerar socialkonstruktivistisk teori inom maskulinitetsforskning. Speciellt används R.W Connells begrepp hegemonisk maskulinitet och Michael Kimmels texter om homosocialitet.

Näsbyholm - parken och de närmaste omgivningarna ur ett historiskt och nutida perspektiv
The goal of this work has been to search historical materials, to identify the park's historical development, to prepare proposals on measures and that work should be the basis for further research. The aim has been to train us in searching for and use of materials and to gain an understanding of the process of work with older plants. In the process we have sought and found materials in archives, through literary and oral sources, and email
contacts.
Because of its excellent location perched on an islet in the low landscape Näsbyholm was long a fortress. The old castle on Näsbyholm was from the late 1400s but the site was
fortified much earlier. The islet was at this time completely surrounded by water and there was a drawbridge over the narrow waterline.
The owners are liable since the late 1200s.
Designa webbplatser med hjälp av haloeffekten : en studie som behandlar visuella intryck av webbplatser samt tar fram kriterier för att mäta dessa intryck
Kan man kombinera två så vitt skilda synsätt som användbarhet och grafisk form på samma webbplats? Jag undersöker möjligheten att göra detta genom att ge användaren ett positivt visuellt första intryck för att sedan låta resten av webbplatsen präglas av användbarhet. Att det första intrycket färgar övriga intryck är ett fenomen som kallas haloeffekten (Hinton, 1993). Hur skapar man då ett positivt första intryck? Jag har utgått från en definition av estetik där begreppet är uppdelat i två dimensioner, klassisk och uttryckande (Lavie och Tractinsky, 2003).

Digital signage i butikshyllan - Kan interaktivitet skapa ytterligare en dimension av påverkan vid köpbeslutet
Interactive media is constantly increasing in our surroundings and with the innovation of touch-screens, two-way communication with screens has become part of our daily life. Still, this well known way of process information is not often seen in the in-store environment of grocery retailing. Here, interactive media is an unestablished field where empirical studies are invisible within the academic world. The lack of knowledge in which effect interactive digital signage has is one of the barriers of investing in this marketing solution in-store. The main purpose of this study is to examine and describe the effects of interactive digital signage at shelf within grocery retailing.

Does vaccination against Feline Parvovirus protect hospitalized raccoon kits from clinical outbreaks of parvoviral disease?
The Northern Raccoon (Procyon lotor) belongs to the Carnivore-family and is a species endemic to North America. Every year hundreds of orphaned raccoon cubs are admitted into the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Minnesota (WRCM), a non-profit organization where all injured or orphaned wild animals are admitted and receive quality health care with the goal of being released out into the wild.
The WRCM routinely vaccinate all of the admitted raccoon cubs with a killed feline panleucopenia vaccine, but despite this there are outbreaks of parvovirus infection every year where up to 50% of the admitted cubs have been euthanized or died. The objective of this study was to determine whether vaccinating the admitted raccoon kits has any significant protective effect to developing clinical parvoviral disease.
A single-blinded cohort study was designed with two parallel, independent groups. One group was given a dose of killed feline parvovirus vaccine at admission, and the other group was not given any vaccination at all. Assignment to the vaccinated or unvaccinated group was on a per-litter basis and done randomly by drawing lots out of a box.
Kännetecknande attribut hos beslutsfattare -En studie baserad på individer som adopterat BSC
Inledning I spåren av Relevance Lost-debatten introducerades nya ekonomistyrnings-& problem- innovationer (ESI:er), däribland BSC. Trots organisationers ökade intresse fördiskussion ESI:er varierar adoptionsbenägenheten. Åtskilliga forskningsstudier har gjort enansats att förklara detta på organisatorisk nivå. Under senare år har dock konstateratsatt adoption inte enbart kan förklaras med hjälp av kontextuella faktoreroch rationella val, utan komplexa adoptionsbeslut fattas ytterst av individer.Studier inom Upper Echelon Theory koncentrerar sig på individen bakom ettadoptionsbeslut, nämligen adoptören. Adoptörens karaktärsdrag, såsom utbildning,ålder, tid inom organisationen samt kön avspeglas i de beslut vederbörandefattar.
