Introduktion: Stress blir ett allt vanligare problem och är därför viktigt att förebygga. Natu- ren och fysisk aktivitet är två viktiga komponenter både i förebyggande och behandlande syfte. Denna studie undersöker om träning utomhus har en större reducerande effekt på stress än träning inomhus samt om det skiljer sig i stressnivå mellan kvinnor och män. Metod: Två grupper med studenter jämfördes, en grupp som huvudsakligen tränar inomhus och en som tränar utomhus. För att kartlägga deltagarnas aktivitetsvanor och stressnivå användes enkäter, varav 83 var brukbara.

I denna uppsats undersöks hur användarna på det virtuella nätverket facebook väljer att framställa sig själva samt vad som ger social status därpå, och detta ur ett genusperspektiv. Facebook är ett socialt virtuellt nätverk som baserar dig på relationer förankrade utanför internet, och har på en mycket kort tid nått en stor spridning. Facebook är därför en social arena som möjliggör nya möjligheter men även begräsningar i presentationen av jaget. Uppsatsens resultat baseras på en innehållsanalys av statusuppdateringar och bilder från facebook, som analyserats utifrån relevant sociologisk teoribildning. De resultat som framkommit ur analysen tyder på att den framställning som görs av användarna på facebook är en idealiserad och ytlig sådan, där båda könen strävar efter att framstå som populära, framgångsrika och lyckade.

The main purpose of this thesis has been to address the problem connected with conservation ofspecific objects in historic buildings that have a protected building status. The immaterial demandsand environmental concerns of a place of cultural significance are discussed as opposed to the welladaptedsetting of a museum, with regard to long-term preservation. In an authentic interior of acertain era, large-scale individual treatments of the objects that define it and regulations forconservation-related reasons, may not be considered a worth-while effort, as it is often the integrityof the environment as a whole that has been declared as significant. To investigate the relationshipbetween object and its context, a case study has been conducted by examination of the propertycalled ?Curmans villor?, located in the seaside community called Lysekil.

This study has emerged from a growing interest in students' sleeping habits. During practical training as teachers, we have noticed a discussion of students' sleeping habits, fatigue and student performance at school in relation to their sleeping habits.

The material was collected from a questionnaire that was answered by 200 students in 4-6th grade and 188 students in 1-2th grade in the upper secondary school, this to give an opportunity to see if there were any differences between the different age groups.

Syftet med denna studie var att utforska mindre aktiva skolelevers fysiska aktivitetsmönster. Den övergripande frågeställning var: vilka faktorer påverkar skolelevernas idrottsvanor? Sedan undersöktes två stycken mer specifika frågor: Finns det några skillnader, när det gäller faktorer som påverkar skolelevers idrottsvanor, beroende på hur deras familjs socioekonomiska status ser ut? Bidrar den teknologiska utvecklingen till den ökade fysiska inaktiviteten bland barn och ungdomar? För att besvara min frågeställning använde jag mig av fem stycken semistrukturerade individuella intervjuer med ungdomar i åldern 15-16. Alla fem respondenter gick i 9: onde klass på samma skola. Skolan valdes ut efter kriterierna att den låg i ett område med svag socioekonomisk status och hög invandrartäthet med respondenterna valdes ut efter kriterierna att de var fysiskt inaktiva.

I kursplanen för ämnet svenska finns det relativt nya vidgade textbegreppet, vilket innebär att text inte längre innefattas av tryckt text utan även kan vara bild, film, teater etcetera. Denna studie tar sin utgångspunkt i film som text. Syftet med undersökningen är att studera huruvida film som text kan likställas med den litterära texten i svenskundervisningen eller om filmmediet fortfarande, som forskningen benämner det, anses vara av låg status. I forskningsbakgrunden problematiseras filmens roll i svenskundervisningen och förslag på ytterligare bearbetningsmöjligheter angående film som text ges. Undersökningen grundar sig på intervjuer med tre gymnasielärare samt enkätundersökningar med respektive lärares elever, vilka läser kursen Svenska B.

Outdoor recreation habits in metropolis and rural areasThis study aims to examine the perception of nature and outdoor recreation habits from an urban-rural prospective.

A clean and affordable energy source for cooking is deficient in developing countries. People rely on fuels that contribute to environmental, social and health problems.Biogas is an alternative energy source and an increased investment in small-scale biogas production can in several developing countries be found. Several projects have started to use the technology in developing countries because of the benefits with biogas. Some cases in the establishment of biogas plants have succeeded and some have not. The study is a literature review supplemented by two field studies.

The aim of this thesis is to examine how mirrors were hung and used in decorating a room during the gustavian period (1770-1810) and the functionalistic period (1930-1939) in Sweden. I have compared the two styles and the way of decorating with mirrors. Based on the comparison I deduced the differences and similarities. The material which the thesis is based on are three drawings and one painting depicting four gustavian rooms containing mirrors. To illustrate the functionalistic period I used four photos from the catalogue from the Stockholm exhibition in 1930.
