Purpose: To assess awareness and attitudes regarding HPV, HPV-vaccines, use of condom and participation in pap-smear screening among high-school students in Uppsala County. The intention was also to investigate if there were any differences between students at theoretical programmes and vocational programmes.Methods: 608 students from seven high-schools in Uppsala County answered a questionnaire covering demographics, awareness and attitudes regarding HPV, HPV-vaccine, use of condoms and pap-smear tests.Results: A majority of the students had never heard of HPV (86 %, n=521), HPV-vaccine (94 %, n=537) or the link between HPV and cervical cancer (88 %, n=563). Most respondents had a positive attitude towards HPV-vaccine (84 %, n=508), but the biggest obstacle was the high cost (37 %, n=227). The students believed that it was less likely that they would use a condom with a new partner if vaccinated (mean=78, SD=26, p<0.001), or if they or their partner used contraceptive pills (mean=62, SD=32, p<0.001) compared to how likely it was that they would use a condom in general with a new partner. The girls rated the probability that they would participate in a pap-smear screening as relatively low if vaccinated (mean=59 SD=27).

Syfte: Huvudsyftet är att undersöka effekterna av införandet av IAS inom fastighetsbranschen och se om de nya principerna har lett mot en mer värderelevant redovisning. Delsyftet är att se på införandets effekter på det egna kapitalet, samt att utröna förhållanden före och efter införandet, då sett till två tidsperioder 2000-2004 och 2005-2009.Metod: Undersökningen är en totalundersökning som innefattar tio stycken företag. Studien sträcker sig från år 2000 - 2009 där 2000 - 2004 är perioden innan införandet av IAS 40 och perioden 2005 - 2009 är efter införandet. CAPM och Tobins Q används för att se om det finns skillnader i eget kapital samt eget kapital i förhållande till börskurs före och efter införandet.  Teori: Undersökningen utgår från Finansieringsteori, Effektiva marknadshypotesen, Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), Tobins Q, Redovisningsteori, Beslutsfattande och Human Information ProcessingEmpiri: I kapitlet illustreras undersökningen i tabeller och diagram. Statistik programmet SPSS har använts för bearbetning av data och illustreras även i diagram för CAPM och Tobins Q.

Real-time systems are required to answer to external stimuli within a specified time-period. For this to be possible, the systems behaviour must be predictable. The use of active databases in real-time systems introduces unpredictability in the system, e.g. due to their use of active rules. The behaviour in active databases is usually specified in ECA-rules.

This bachelor thesis aims to investigate how social workers in Uppsala describe their procedure when investigating applications for housing assistance (i.e. boendestöd). Boendestöd is a specific type of services for people with disabilities, which aim to assist them in their lives. This welfare service is one of many regulated by the framework legislation that is the social services act (SoL 2001:453). Previous research indicates that civil servants who make decisions based on goal-oriented framework legislations like SoL, have a great freedom to act when they make judgments and decisions.

Konstmuseum i Uppsala är delvis ett transformationsprojekt men också ett tillägg i form av en ny byggnad. Arbetet med museet utgick ifrån en övergripande frågeställning:  Hur kan ett nytt konstmuseum informeras av platsen Katalin­området, tydligt samverka med den befintliga bebyggelsen och samtidigt bidra med ett nytt lager till helheten? Vidare har frågor kring framtidens rum för konst väckts och behandlats. Målet har varit att skapa ett museum med en variationsrik rumslig upplevesle genom utställningen där besökaren rör sig ­genom platsens lager. En analys av platsens historia, material och rumssamband informerade projektets gestaltning, tektonik och om­arbetningen av det offentliga rummet kring byggnaden. ­Konstmuseet tar hela platsen i anspråk.

AbstractTitle: Is it easy to make the right decision? An essay about how the profiled senior level schools communicate with their future pupils and their parents. (Lätt att göra rätt val? En uppsats om den profilerade högstadieskolans kommunikation med blivande elever och deras föräldrar.)Author: Erika CassmanAim: My hypothesis is that parental influence is higher when the students are going to a detached school than when the students are going to a school with a profiled program because in the profiled program they are going to study a course that they love and is chosen by themselves. The aim of this essay is therefore to find out if this thesis is right or wrong.

Syfte: Vi upplever att människor i vår omgivning har en negativ bild av fastighetsmäklare. Undersökningar som Expressen har gjort bekräftar även detta. Vårt syfte med den här studien är därför att:? Ge vår bild av fastighetsmäklare.? Skriva en debattartikel och få denna publicerad.Genom att uppfylla ovanstående syfte vill vi besvara frågorna:? Varför har fastighetsmäklare ett dåligt rykte?? Vad kan göras för att förbättra ryktet?Metod: Vi har utifrån ett hermeneutiskt synsätt skapat denna uppsats och därför låtit vår förförståelse och subjektivitet spegla innehållet. Data har samlats in genom att söka i litteratur, intervjuer och en mindre egen undersökning.

Uppsatsen handlar om Uppsalas torg ur ett historiskt perspektiv. Torg är viktiga platser i staden och har även varit det historiskt sett. De har fungerat som mötesplatser, rådplatser, marknadsplatser med mera, även viktiga symboliska och monumentala platser. Uppsala är en gammal stad och har många olika torg som ser olika ut på centrala platser och dessa torg ville jag titta närmare på. I dag har de flesta av dessa torg ett inslag av trafik och jag ville undersöka hur länge det varit så eftersom det är ett dominerande inslag på många av dem. Torgen ses oftast som mellanrum i staden när man ser på kartor och även om det är viktiga platser för människorna finns det oftast inte så mycket nedskrivet om dem.

The work was carried out on Termisk Systemteknisk?s office in Linköping. The aim was to create a computer system with infrared camera technology for quality control and temperature monitoring of manufacturing processes in industry. The system should be configurable such that it can be used on several different issues, including those where the real-time analysis of camera images is required.The developed system is based on an existing framework, Panola, to deal with measurement results and images in a database. The framework is built for the system continually check for new data , and the task was to create a foundation upon which to build systems that use the framework, but fully or partially utilize direct calls .

ABSTRACTTitle: ?Lifestyles come and go but your choices remain?? (?Livsstilar kommer och går, men valen består...?)Number of Pages: 42 (45 including enclosures)Author: Jenny RydqvistTutor: Göran SvenssonCourse: Media- and Communication Studies CPeriod: Autumn term 2007University: Division of Media and Communication, Department of Information Science, Uppsala UniversityPurpose/Aim: The aim of this essay is to make a study of how young adults between 19-25 years are influenced by commercials.Key Questions: How are students in Uppsala influenced by commercials? Do the commercials influence the consumptionbehaviour? Do the commercials influence the lifestyle? Do the influences of the commercial construct the individual lifestyle? In which extent is it social related?Material/Method: Together with literature studies, a qualitative method has been used with 5 interviews with young adults in the age of 19-25 in Uppsala. I have compared these five interviews with earlier results and research.Main Results: I have found out that these young adults don?t want to admit being influenced by commercials even if they know they are. These young adults have also formed consumptionbehaviour after the commercials, which they show in for example their way of shopping and their way of acting afterwards.

AbstractTitleOwnership apartments - The success that got lostDate of seminar2011-05-27Course/ProgramBachelor thesis/Construction and Real Estate Business ProgrammeAuthorsAnna ÅbergMarie Louise Homayon NejadMentorSven-Ola CarlssonExaminerGunnar WramsbyBackgroundThe 1st of May 2009 the government introduced a new accommodation form called ownership apartments. The government´s intensions were to give the individuals more influence in their housing, to increase the variety of accommodation and thereby create a freedom of choice when selecting their housing. They also saw opportunities to reduce segregation and increase the total production of houses and or apartments with this new type of ownership. The introduction was supposed to give the building companies a possibility to build with a new type of ownership and thereby create new and an increased number of projects for the future. This new accommodation form has however not gained the penetrating power that was expected.

Österbyverken is an industrial estate in Östhammars municipality in Uppland, Sweden. Many different activities have taken place on the estate the last 600 years. During the last 15 years both health and environmental studies have been made by different companies. At the most recent study a great increase of metals in Nerån, a river that runs partly through and partly next to the estate, was identified with mass balances. The purpose of this thesis is to accomplish a deepened study about the reasons for the increase of metals in Nerån.
