The aim of this Master?s thesis is to examine the profession of librarianship by studying tasks in Swedish public libraries. The method is a textual analysis of articles inspired by the critical discourse analysis of Norman Fairclough. The theory applied consists of the profession theory of Andrew Abbott and the gender theory of Yvonne Hirdman. The questions raised are: how do librarians speak about their tasks, which discourses can be constructed and how can profession theory and gender theory explain the result.

Syfte: Att undersöka budgetens roll i olika företag inom verkstadsindustrin och hur rollen har påverkats av den finansiella krisen samt den efterföljande lågkonjunkturen. Att utreda vilken påverkan andra externa och interna faktorer har på budgetens roll, genom att analysera de specifika förhållanden som företag verkar inom. Metod: Studie av tre verkstadsföretag genom personliga intervjuer. Slutsatser: Studien har utgått från en indelning av budgetens syften i dess roll som planeringsverktyg och dess roll som motivationsverktyg. I de studerade företagen har finanskrisen inte påverkat budgeten som planeringsverktyg.

Vårt arbete handlar om flickors roll i klassrummet. Vi har läst tidigare forskning som beskriver pojkar som aktiva och flickor som passiva. Vi ställde oss frågan om det är relevant idag..

My purpose with this thesis has been to find out how to choreograph a fight sequence in ananimated movie. With the help of professional stuntmen and dancers, I have tried to findmethods and techniques used on stage and in live-action film and apply those to animatedfilms. To successfully identify the techniques used, I conducted a number of interviews andanalyzed literature that deals with the subject of fight choreography. By the analysis of themethods provided by the choreographers and selected parts of the literature, I have compiled anumber of steps I recommend 3D animators should to take in their efforts to create their ownfight choreography..

 Ledarskapet är en del av sjuksköterskans arbete och ingår i sjuksköterskans profession. Sjuksköterskestudenterna behöver vara förberedda för rollen som arbetsledare. Syftet med studien är att beskriva sjuksköterskestudenters uppfattningar om sin framtida yrkesroll som arbetsledare. Datamaterialet består av intervjuer med tio sjuksköterskestudenter som studerar på en högskola i Västsverige.  Åldern på sjuksköterskestudenterna varierar mellan 22 och 38 år. Intervjuerna spelades in på band och transkriberades.

Although women express a desire to be managers and although they constitute the majority of Sweden's newly graduated academics, they are still heavily underrepresented on senior management level in the Swedish private sector, where men hold as much as 95 % of the top positions. Considering the massive waste of resources that this implies, this thesis sets out to investigate the underlying reasons for the skewed gender distribution on senior management level in two Swedish professional services companies - an industry where the described problem has been palpable. Additionally, the thesis explores the effects of actively working for increased gender equality. With a basis in gender and organization theory, a broad theoretical framework has been compiled and applied to a qualitative case study design. The thesis reveals seven distinct impediments, which together create a parable of an obstacles course, that prevent women from advancing the corporate ladder in the same manner as their male colleagues.

The aim of this study was to review six professionals supporters work to support adolescents in grief, and if this support is the kind of support adolescents actually need. These professional supporters are two hospital social workers, two hospice social workers and two support group leaders. The questions included in the work are; How does the professional support look like for adolescents aged 12-18, who has lost a parent in cancer? Are the adolescents getting the support they need from these professionals? The study is based on qualitative interviews based on interview guides, which where then analyzed thematically and linked to previous research and grief theory. The result indicate that adolescents may need different forms of support when their parent is dying or has died.

In an international perspective the Russian children s library is a unique institution, being solely committed to children up to 14 years of age. In Russia of today it is, however, being exposed to hard pressure as the economical and social conditions have changed dramatically since the collapse of the USSR. My interest lies in examining this change of living conditions for the children s libraries and how this in turn affect their work and role in the present state. In order to view this change in a longer perspective, I compare the situation for children s libraries during the time of communist regime with that of today using documents about and from children s libraries. I have studied its legal position and conditions, financial and political state, and how the modern society affects children and youth, especially their daily cultural life.

The field of veterinary nursing should be based upon research and proven experience. Few studies have been performed within the area of distal limb bandages. Therefore the aim of this study was to examine and describe how to place a distal fore limb bandage based on proven experience. Data material was collected through four interviews with professional veterinary nurses, and then analyzed using a qualitative content analysis. In the analysis data material was transcribed and then divided into meaningful units that responded to the aim. The meaningful units were then condensed.

Vi har undersökt den verksamhet Stadsmissionen i Malmö utför för de hemlösa i staden. De centrala frågeställningarna vi har utgått ifrån har varit hur Stadsmissionen i Malmö ser på sin roll i samhället och hur det offentliga ser på Stadsmissionen i Malmös roll i samhället. Stadsmissionen i Malmö är knuten till det offentliga genom entreprenader. Det offentliga ser Stadsmissionen i Malmö i huvudsak som en entreprenör åt dem och att deras verksamhet inte är oersättlig. Det offentliga ser dock att Stadsmissionen i Malmö har egenskaper som gör att de kan erbjuda sina besökare det lilla extra och att de därför har en jätteviktig roll för de hemlösa i staden.

When driving hard and cornering on a circuit good control of a car?s roll is desired, so the car reaches steady state quickly but yet in a controlled fashion. This control is mainly given by the combination of the cars springs, shock absorbers and anti-roll bars.The aim of this report is to investigate, analyze and measure a Porsche Boxster?s turn in behaviour and roll dynamics as well as with the aid of simulation results give suggestions for improvement of the previous mentioned combination.Two different simulations were made, one based on a simpler model that was based on an evolved version of the bicycle model in Matlab and one was more advanced model in the simulation software rFactor. Measurements of the real car was made using a GPS-based measurement system.

This study aims to develop knowledge of different professional groups and their views on inclusion and collaboration concerning "students in difficulty." Through qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey, the researcher sought answers to this and also how inclusion, through collaboration between different professional groups, can develop in school.The results of the study have been analyzed according by Nilholms (2007) three different perspectives on special education: The critical perspective, the compensatory perspective and the dilemma perspective. The results were also analyzed based on Ahlberg's (2013) communicative ? relationship perspective.The result shows that the concept of inclusion is not clearly defined either in the governing documents or among the interviewees. This makes it difficult to speak the same language in school, which complicates the work of inclusion. Since the governing documents are unclear and somewhat contradictory when dealing with "students in difficulty" educators are put in a dilemma.

Syftet med undersökningen har varit att belysa vad pedagoger har för syn på sin roll i bildochformskapande verksamhet i förskolan. Vi har funnit det viktigt att alla som arbetar iförskolan skall vara väl insatta i hur arbetet med bild- och formskapande kan påverka barnsutveckling. Vårt tillvägagångssätt för insamling av material har bestått av sex kvalitativaintervjuer med förskollärare som är verksamma i tre olika kommuner i södra Sverige.Resultatet har visat på att pedagogerna ser sin roll i bild- och formskapande som väldigtbetydelsefull. Genom att vara stöttande och utgå från barnen kan det ske både personlig- ochkunskapsutveckling hos barnen. Även pedagogernas utveckling är viktig eftersom det är desom ger barnen förutsättningarna för att utvecklas.
