The study includes six wind power farms in the County of Västerbotten in northern Sweden. The main questions were: What are the real dimensions of roadways and land claims for both roads and wind power turbines? How do those dimensions correlate with the dimensions stated in the EIA? Are there any differences in values of the dimensions between the wind power farms that are included in this study?

The results from the examinations were compared with the dimensions available in the EIA for each wind power farm.

Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att ta reda på om ett familjearbete med placerade ungdomar och deras familjer, på SiS ungdomshem Folåsa, påverkar ungdomarnas upplevelse av oro/besvär inom områden så som familj och psykisk hälsa.Genom en analys av ungdomarnas svar på inskrivnings-, utskrivnings-, samt uppföljnings-ADAD- intervjuer har jag sökt svaren på frågeställningarna.När ungdomarna själva skattar så upplever de att det är bättre eller mycket bättre inom de flesta av de livsområden som ADAD avser att undersöka. Det visar sig att ungdomarna upplever mindre konflikter i hemmet efter behandlingen. De har även en mindre oro för problem inom området familj när uppföljningsintervjun görs ca ett år efter utskrivning. Oron för den psykiska hälsan har dock ökat något från inskrivning till uppföljning.Ungdomar anser sig i stor utsträckning fått hjälp med de problem de velat ha hjälp med, och endast två (2/ 26) av ungdomarna har vistats på annan behandlingsinstitution efter Folåsa..

Using qualitative methods, sex women underwent a semi-structured interview on the following themes: social background, medical history, mammographic screening, invitation, and final decision.Social background was described using the "life-form theory".

The process of non-attendance was studied using a model by Zovko, balancing different needs affecting decisions and final action.According to their decision, and final action, women were defined as "participants", "passive non-attenders" or "active non-attenders". Most women belonged to the life-form "paid work" and had children.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how students in a Swedishjunior high school (grade 7-9) view their possibility to participate in thecollection management of their school library, and how the schoollibrary works to involve the students when purchasing media. The studyhas resulted in a model for easy and effective involvement of studentsin the collection development.To achieve this aim both quantitative and qualitative methods are used.A survey in three classes in the school, observations at the schoollibrary and a qualitative interview with the library assistant have beenperformed. The collection management at the school library isdescribed using the School Library Taxonomies developed by DavidLoertscher and two models for participation developed by Roger A Hartand Harry Shier.

The proposed model for effective involvement of students in the library focuses on simplicity, voluntariness, distinct information and visible results..
