Den här artikeln undersöker det aktuella kunskapsläget gällande ungdomars sexuella riskbeteenden på internet. Det är en litteraturöversikt som samlar bland annat fynd om risker som ungdomar möter online. Vi undersöker även vad forskning på området har kommit fram till avseende skydd och förebyggande åtgärder. Resultaten visar på att det är ett problem som ofta har överdrivits, gällande dess utbredning och graden av fara i det som en del ungdomar företar sig när de använder internet. Samtidigt tyder resultaten på att det, detta till trots, är ett problem att ta på allvar och att både forskning, professionella, föräldrar m fl.

This Masters thesis is analysing four Swedish novels written by first time authors published between 1993-2002. The purpose is to make the fictitious main characters illustrate what conditions and obstacles there can be for the individual of today to create a self-identity. Anthony Giddens ideas about the self in the late modern society are used as a theoretical framework. In the core of Giddens theory is the concept of reflexitivity which means that the self must be constructed in a continuous fashion because the overall conditions in society are subject to constant change. The questions posed in this study are dependable on Giddens in general and the concept of reflexivity in particular.

One important issue faced by companies is to secure their information and resources from intrusions. For accessing a resource almost every system uses the approach of assigning a unique username and a password to all legitimate users. This approach has a major drawback. If an intruder gets the above information then he can become a big threat for the company and its resources. To strengthen the computer security there are several biometric methods for identity verification which are based on the human body?s unique characteristics and behavior including fingerprints, face recognition, retina scan and signatures.

: E-handeln i Sverige ökar kraftigt och har så gjort de senaste åren. Allt fler företag väljer att etablera sig online, vilket har lett till hård konkurrens på marknaden och svårigheter att differentiera sig. Att skapa ett värde för kunden i traditionell fysisk butik har länge varit självklart inom modebranschen, genom exempelvis god kundservice och lojalitetsprogram. Värde är något som företagen behöver erbjuda sina kunder även i onlinemiljö, men är här mycket mer komplext att skapa, vilket har lett till ett ökat intresse för motiv- och kundbeteende online bland modeföretagen. Förståelsen för dessa aspekter förväntas vara en möjlighet att möta konsumentens behov och uppfylla dennes mål, därigenom skapa tillfredställelse, vilket främjar återkommande besök och köp.

The Swedish real estate market has experienced an intense increase of demand during the last ten years. Thus, people regularly visit real estate websites, as well as home improvement and interior design have become extremely popular. However, the Swedish real estate agencies still have not developed a theoretical framework on how to most effectively market the properties. The main purpose of this study was to investigate how interior in apartment advertising affects the buyer's interest in the apartment, and furthermore to start building a framework for how to effectively use interior as a marketing tool. The study connects theory regarding social identity, advertising effectiveness and product personality in order to investigate consumer behaviour in the real estate market.
