"Kommunikation är ju allt" : En kvalitativ studie om relationen mellan värdet av att mäta kommunikation och kommunikatörers status och legitimitet i organisationer.
Titel:"Kommunikation är ju allt" ? en kvalitativ studie om relationen mellan värdet av att mäta kommunikation och kommunikatörers status och legitimitet i organisationer.Författare:Emilia Dahlqvist och Daniela LundqvistKurs, termin och år:Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap GR (C), C-uppsats 15 hp, HT-2013Antal ord i uppsatsen:17 009 ordProblemformulering och syfte:Strategisk kommunikation har under de senaste 25 åren haft svårigheter att utveckla mätmetoder som visar på dess värde. Strategisk kommunikation kämpar för akademisk prestige, vilket är en stor utmaning för legitimeringen av yrket. Yrkesutövare har svårt att argumentera för vilket värde de tillför organisationen, utan att kunna visa detta genom mätbara resultat. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka relationen mellan kommunikationsansvarigas uppfattningar om mätning av kommunikation och yrkets legitimitet.
Kommunikation i operationsmiljö : en litteraturöversikt
AbstractAim: The aim of this study was to investigate if treatment with ?dry needling? in myofascial triggerpoints (MTrPs) in the rotatorcuff muscles may affect impingement symptoms such as pain during provocative tests, shoulder mobility, and function. The research questions were: Does the value of pain change on the Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) between before and after treatment? Do the positive provocative tests for impingement change between before and after treatment? Does the active shoulder mobility change between before and after treatment? Does the self-rated function change between before and after treatment?Method: The study was a prospective randomized intervention study and 19 persons with impingement symptoms (mean ± standard deviation; 58 ± 18 years, and shoulder pain duration 3.9 ± 1.6 months) were randomized into two groups. The groups were tested before, directly after and 3 weeks after treatment.
Familjetyp och förväntad utbildningsnivå : En kvantitativ undersökning om sambandet mellan familjetyp och utbildningsförväntningar
SammanfattningTidigare studier visar att familjetyp påverkar utbildning på olika sätt. Elever som bor med ensamstående föräldrar tenderar generellt att ha lägre betyg och testresultat, samt uppnår och förväntas uppnå lägre utbildningsnivå än elever som bor med två föräldrar. Studier visar även att uppnådd utbildningsnivå påverkas av diverse andra variabler, så som demografiska bakgrundsvariabler, socioekonomisk status samt testresultat och attityd till skola. Tidigare studier visar även att den effekt som socioekonomisk status påverkar skolval och uppnådd utbildningsnivå till stor del är primära. Det innebär att anledningen till att elever med låg socioekonomisk status uppnår lägre utbildningsnivå är för att de generellt presterar sämre i skolan.
Käppalaverkets nuvarande och framtida rötningskapacitet : en studie i labskala
Käppala wastewater treatment plant situated on the island of Lidingö northeast of Stockholm is running a project during 2004 and 2005 with the purpose to map out the capacity of anaerobic digestion in the digesters that treat primary and excess sludge. The purpose of this thesis work, which is part of that project, was to characterize the present anaerobic digestion process and to investigate its capacity to treat other organic wastes such as restaurant waste and waste from water works. To decide the potential of both methane and biogas production from different substrates batch laboratory tests were carried out. To imitate the anaerobic digestion process at Käppala continuous tests with small scale reactors were carried out. These reactors were later fed with restaurant waste.The batch laboratory tests showed that primary sludge had a potential biogas and methane production of 0,62 and 0,35 Ndm3/g VS respectively after 40 days of digestion.
Måltiden som symboliskt kapital - en etnologisk studie av mat, medelklass & identitetsskapande
This paper aims to investigate how human beings uses food to found an identity, with regards to how social class affects their choice of food and if trends play a part when it comes to cooking and purchasing food. The paper applies theorist Pierre Bourdieu's concepts such as habitus, capital and field.The main part of the material is composed of four interviews with seven informants; all of which is middle class. The paper also looks at how lifestyle, taste and attitudes to consumption are used when the informants build identity. The empirical part is split into three main subjects, where I first seek to find each informants food habits. What do they eat, and what do they not eat?It showed that a large part was due to their varied lifestyles, however generally speaking the day to day meals should be quick while meals during the weekends could take longer and also cost more.
Storstadssatsningen och dess effekter på valdeltagande i kommunala val: Framgång eller misslyckande?
In 1998 the Swedish Socialist Government initiated a project in order to promote economic growth and to end the discriminating social and ethnic segregation in the greater city regions of Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmo. One of the goals of the project was and still is to promote political participation in 24 of the poorest areas of the three cities. In a quantitative analysis I evaluate whether or not the project so far has been successful in promoting a specific part of political participation, i.e. electoral participation in communal elections. The results of the 24 poor city areas are compared with a group of 14 likewise poor city areas of major swedish cities.According to my hypothesis, general improvements of the socio-economic status of poor city areas ought to generate positive effects on electoral participation in communal elections.
Att "smälta" in i vuxenlivet : övergången från ungdom till vuxen
For today's young adults, the experience of being in the age period 18-30 years is, compared with previous generations, quite different. There is more room for exploring and experimenting when lifestyles and life-choices are no longer predetermined, and most things are possible for today's young people. The object of this thesis is to examine young people2019s experiences in the transition from youth to adulthood and to illuminate those experiences and difficulties that take place during this period. In the study, qualitative interviews were used in four focus groups, divided up in two age categories. The results reveal that the feeling of being an adult arises in the latter part of the period, and that variations between individuals are readily apparent.
"Man kan säga att båda sänder signaler men på olika frekvenser" : en kvalitativ studie om partners upplevelse av att vara i ett parförhållande där den andra partnern har Aspergers syndrom
Being in a relationship where the partner has Asperger's syndrome makes you indirectly affected by their disability as it affects not only the disabled but also the partner. The partner may be faced with a lack of understanding from their partner with Asperger's syndrome and from its surroundings, where the syndrome including causes, limits ability in social interaction and communication.The study is a qualitative study based on six asynchronous interviews conducted via email with partners who are in a relationship with a partner who has Asperger's syndrome.The aim of the study was to increase understanding and to highlight partners experience to be in a relationship where the other partner has Asperger's syndrome and how outside support from the environment is perceived. Results of the study showed that all six partners felt that everyday life was structured around the partner with Asperger's syndrome. There was a perceived feeling of loneliness because of the partner with Asperger's syndrome not caring about the partner and of being the one taking the greatest responsibility in everyday life for it to work. There was a feeling of stress, anxiety, lost confidence and frustration but there was also a strong desire and commitment to their partner with Asperger's syndrome.
Utvärdering av Naturvårdsverkets bedömningsgrunder för makrofyter i sjöar
According to the Water Framework Directive of the European Union, macrophytes should be used as indicators in the ecological and environmental monitoring of lakes. In the member state Sweden the Environmental Protection Agency has elaborated assessment criteria for determining lake status based on macrophytes. The main focus of this thesis is to evaluate the efficiency of the assessment criteria for macrophytes. In addition the concordance between the ecological status classes of the four quality factors included was analysed.The assessment criteria for macrophytes are based on the total phosphorus preference of the respective species. The focus is thus mainly on the nutrient level of the investigated lakes and the environmental problem monitored is eutrophication.
En persona i frihetstidens politiska rum : Bonden i ridderskapet och adelns tankevärld i 1740-talets Sverige
This essay is a contribution to the process of reconstructing the meaning of a concept that has been long forsaken and somewhat forgotten. It examines the way in which the Swedish nobility perceived the politically active peasantry during the 1740s as an expression of the prevailing political culture of the period. The aim of this study is thus to understand a bygone world of thought that once existed in a very turbulent political culture. I focus on the words formed and articulated in the halls and rooms of the Swedish estates by which the thoughts, opinions and power of the Swedish government came to the fore. In doing so it is possible to say something about how the nobility, in their relationship with the peasantry, constructed an object which represented their perception of the Swedish peasant and what this meant.
Hur viktiga är betygen?: undersökning av elever i årskurs 8 i Piteå
Svenska elevers resultat i skolan har sedan mitten av 1990-talet försämrats. Det finns flera olika orsaker, bland annat att när kommunen tog över ansvaret för skolan blev den svenska skolan mer avreglerad. Det var meningen att kommunen som har mer kunskap på lokal nivå skulle kunna fördela resurserna och göra skolan mer likvärdig, men så är det inte idag. Det finns även kopplingar till att prestationerna och föräldrars socioekonomiska status påverkar resultaten. Men även tiden föräldrarna har med barnen har minskat, mycket på grund av att båda föräldrarna arbetar idag.
Uthållig sanitet : en förstudie i staden Picota, Peru
The access to good sanitary facilities is an important factor that elevates the experienced living standard as it improves hygiene and reduces the transmission of deseases. The ratification of the millennium goals by 189 countries demonstrates that this is an important international issue. Together the countries have taken upon themselves that the proportion of the population that lacked access to sustainable safe drinking water and sanitary facilities in the year 2000 will have been reduced by half by the year 2015.
In Peru, the construction of sewage pipe networks to transport the sewage out of the direct human environment is progressing. The safety and sustainability of these systems can be questioned, since in Peru the sewage seldom receive any treatment before being emitted to a recipient. This is taking place in Picota and sorrunding villages as well.
In the last 25 years several systems implementing small-scale onsite treatment have been introduced throughout Latin America in an attempt to give more people access to sustainable and safe sanitary facilities, reducing water consumption and taking advantage of the agricultural values of the sewage fractions while protecting the environment from its negative impact.
In this study three different sanitary systems and the effects of different population growths were compared.

Journalistrollens rivaler : Om public service-reportrars syn på sin roll i relation till användarskapat innehåll och medborgarjournalistik
Journalists´ role in society has traditionally been of representative nature with a task to distribute news and scrutinize those in power. But technological changes have created a new publishing world outside the traditional media institutions. In today?s redactional society anyone can become a publisher in a blog or through other channels on online. This process can be seen as contributing to increased democratization giving everyone the opportunity to publish.
