Ha?llbarhetsredovisning i bostadsfo?retag : En rekommendation
This project was conducted on behalf of the organization SABO (Swedish Association of Public Housing Companies). The aim of this project was to investigate which relevant environmental aspects and indicators there are for housing companies to present in their sustainability report. The project consists of three main goals: to decide if there is a need for common guidelines when conducting a sustainability report, determine appropriate environmental indicators and to create a simple model of how the companies can present them. This was done by a literature study, analysis of 13 sustainability reports and interviews with seven housing companies. The result of the project suggests that there is a need for common guidelines to, among other things, make it easier to make a comparison with other companies.
Kost, kön och prestation : En studie om årskurs nio elevers kostvanor i olika inkomstområden
Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka årskurs nio elevers matvanor, och betyg i ämnet i idrott och hälsa utifrån genus. Studien genomfördes på två stycken skolor den ena i ett område med lågt socioekonomiskt index och den andra i ett område med högt socioekonomiskt index. Examensarbetet genomfördes med hjälp av information sammanställt från 77 stycken enkäter, betyg och relevant litteratur. Resultat av undersökning visar att det finns viss korrelation mellan elever som lever i områden med högt socioekonomiskt index har högre betyg i ämnet idrott och hälsa och god kosthållning i jämförelse med elever som bor i områden med lågt socioekonomiskt index som har lägre betyg och sämre kosthållning, dock går sambandet inte att säkert fastslå. Resultaten av studien visar att eleverna på skolan med lågt socioekonomiskt index äter mer onyttig mat och betydligt mindre frukost i jämförelse med eleverna på skolan med högt socioekonomiskt index.

Index viktat efter omsättning : Presterar ett index viktat efter omsättning bättre än ett index viktat efter börsvärde?
Om den effektiva marknadshypotesen inte gäller skulle varje aktie handlas över eller under aktiens verkliga värde. Om så är fallet skulle alla index som är viktade efter börsvärde automatiskt överexponeras när en aktie handlas över dess verkliga värde och underexponera när en aktie handlas under dess verkliga värde. Det här betyder att kapitalviktade index är fundamentalt och strukturellt bristfälliga och kommer kontinuerligt övervikta alla aktier som handlas över verkligt värde och undervikta all aktier som handlas under verkligt värde. Efter att läst Robert Arnotts forskningsartikel ?Redefining Indexation? väcktes intresset av att utföra studien på den svenska aktiemarknaden.
Servicemötet : En studie om vilka brister och förbättringsmöjligheter som finns i servicemötet mellan säljare och kund
In recent decades, demands has emerged that the companies shall take a greater social responsibility for the impact that they have on their environment and that this impact shall be reported, which is known as Sustainability Reporting. The Sustainability Report is based on a number of general principles that ensure the content and the quality of the Sustainability Report. One of these principles is the principle of completeness. In the research, this principle seems to have been interpreted in terms of number of reported aspects and indicators, which can be a limited view where only the existence of the aspects and indicators is observed. By including the degree of the reporting in terms of full, partial and no reporting as well as a comparison between the real and the alleged reporting, our intention is to extend the principle of completeness and to develop a tool that we also apply through an empirical survey in a particular area.

Aktiv förvaltning av BRIC-landsfonder: En jämförelse av prestation mellan aktivt förvaltade BRIC-landsfonder på den svenska fondmarknaden och respektive jämförelseindex under perioder av upp- och nedgångar 2006-2011
Denna studie undersöker hur aktivt förvaltade BRIC-landsfonder (Brasilien, Ryssland, Indien och Kina) som erbjuds på den svenska fondmarknaden har presterat i förhållande till respektive jämförelseindex (MSCI) utifrån avkastning och riskjusterad prestation under perioder av upp- och nedgångar 2006 till 2011. Vidare undersöker vi hur BRIC-landsfondernas prestationer har hållit i sig jämfört med index och varandra över tiden. Vi finner att majoriteten av Brasilien-fonderna slår index i både upp- och nedgång, samt håller i prestationerna över tid. Riskjusterat presterar fonderna över index två av tre perioder. Ryssland-fonderna slår index i uppgång, men inte i nedgång.
Att vända en dålig trend
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.

Undersökning av exponeringsindex för bildplattesystem inför optimeringsarbete
The county hospital of Dalarna has for the last couple of years carried through a process of digitalization. The result is that within the county it exists image plate systems from two different manufacturers. In an attempt to create a tool for dose optimization and dose surveillance the county of Dalarna would like to investigate if the exposure index from Agfa and Fuji is suitable as a dose indicator. An investigation of the exposure index, S, from Fuji has already been done. This thesis has been continuing the investigation by evaluating the stability of the exposure index, lgM, from Agfa.

Praxis inom hållbarhetsredovisning 2010 : Undersökning av svenska företag noterade på Stockholmsbörsen
Problem formulation: The awareness and importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is growing within both corporations and society at large. The corporate progress in sustainable development can be both profitable and essential for the potential to compete globally. The value of sustainability reporting may differ between industries and companies of different sizes. The demands for sustainability reports are expected to increase. By 2010, no previous survey on sustainability reporting practices had been conducted within Swedish corporations. Purpose: The aim of the current study was to examine sustainability reports within Swedish corporations during 2010 and to compare the findings with preceding surveys to determine differences over time and between corporations.

Hållbarhetsredovisning : En historisk utveckling
Background: The latest development within the business world has been characterized by deregulation and globalization which has made the company bigger and even more influential. The increased power has resulted in a shift of responsibility for the community from the public to the private sector.

Some trends have come to stay whilst others have shown to be less successful or the world has not been ready for them. (Larsson, a, 2002) Purpose: The purpose with this paper is to look at the historical development towards accounting for sustainability and to investigate what factors that might have hade an impact on this development.
