My problem comes out of the bigger question ?why the Catholic church is featured in horror films whenever a religious organization is in one?? I have detected in the horror films that I've seen that when a religious organization is in a horror movie it's the Catholic church that gets to act as church and religion. I have chosen the following problem: How is the Catholic church presented in the horror movies The Exorcist and The Rite, and how can one understand these presentations from a role theoretic perspective?Since role theory has it's background in the world of the theater with it's actors and roles, it came naturally to use role theory, and specifically Goffmans dramatic model. I've used this model in a film analysis of the movies.

During the 1960s and 1970s an increased interest in Native Americans can be seen in Sweden, e.g. through the establishment of organizations such as the Indian Club of Sweden.

The study is divided into four parts. The first part looks at the portrayal of the Native Americans in Widén?s writings, in comparison with Euro-Americans? and Europeans? traditional stereotypic images of a good and a bad Indian.

The Changing Role of the Vocational Studies Teacher.

Vi har gjort en socialpsykologisk undersökning där vi har studerat barnavårdscentralssjuksköterskornas erfarenheter av meningsfullt arbete i barnavårdscentralen. Vårt syfte med studien är att öka förståelse kring hur BVC-sjuksköterskorna går tillväga för att känna arbetet meningsfullt och samtidigt mår bra. Resultatet visar att meningsskapande har en stor betydelse för sjuksköterskorna när det gäller deras välbefinnande. Den visar att sjuksköterskorna känner meningsfullhet i sitt arbete när de som person och deras roll stöder varandra och när det finns harmoni mellan dessa två. Sjuksköterskorna mår bra av det och arbetet flyter på utan ansträngning, de vill hjälpa och det hör till deras roll att hjälpa och på det sättet stöder deras roll och de som personer varandra.

The purpose of this Master?s thesis is to examine what role the new city library in Halmstad has for its users. The questions posed in this study are: What do the users actually do at the library? What roles are the most significant according to the users? Have the politicians succeeded in their intention of realizing a modern library according to the users? The theoretical starting point is Andersson?s and Skot-Hansen?s theory of four different roles of public libraries.

According to statistics, requirements management is identified as a major source of error to failed IT-projects. Moreover communication is identified as a factor affecting the require-ments management and can lead to deficiencies in the requirements. The requirements analyst is responsible for managing the requirements from the different stakeholders, act as a com-munication accommodator and to translate abstract requirements expressed by users to more specific requirements that developers can implement. The purpose of this thesis is to study the role of the requirements analyst to investigate the problems that may arise in working with requirements management.  To achieve the purpose we have performed a requirements management process in which we ourselves took the role as the requirements analysts. The requirements management process consisted of three phases: gather requirements, document requirements and validate require-ments.

Inledning: Skolsköterskan är delaktig i elevhälsoteamet som består av en bred samlad kompetens där målet är att främja barns hälsa och utveckling. Skolsköterskan är ofta ensamarbetande i sin profession vilket kan upplevas som utmanande. Tidigare forskning visade att skolsköterskans arbetsuppgifter inte alltid stämde överens med de förvänt-ningar andra medarbetare inom verksamheten hade. Rektorn, som den närmaste chefen har ansvar för bland annat resursfördelning och organisering av arbetslagen. Eftersom rektorn är betydelsefull för hur skolsköterskans arbete utformas är det av vikt att göra en studie om skolsköterskans betydelse utifrån ett rektorperspektiv.
