Finansiellt risktagande : En studie om svenska män och kvinnors finansiella riskbenägenhet
Syftet med studien är att identifiera om det finns någon skillnad i risk mellan svenska män och kvinnors aktieportföljer. I undersökningen av individernas riskbenägenhet används tre riskmått, total risk, marknadsrisk och unik risk, som enligt portföljteorin går att koppla till en individs aktieportfölj. Ålder och inkomst används som kontrollvariabler för att studera om eventuella skillnader i riskbenägenhet mellan könen kan förklaras av andra faktorer än kön. Studien baseras på en kvantitativ undersökning och sekundärdata från en unik databas. Urvalet för studien består av knappt 900 000 observationer av svenska individers aktieportföljer, med kontroll för kön, ålder och förvärvsinkomst.
Rysslandsfonder : En analys av utveckling och risk mellan åren 1999 och 2005
Rysslandsfonder är en av många fonder som finns tillgängliga för att investera i. Ryssland har haft en starkutveckling de senaste åren. I uppsatsen görs en jämförelse av utveckling och risk mellan Rysslandsfonder och den svenska markanden representerad av SIX Return index. Utvecklingen hos Rysslandsfonderna har månadsvis under perioden 1999-2005 varit betydligt mer gynnsam än för det representerade Sverige index. Risken med standardavvikelse som en indikator för detta visar att det innebär en större risk att investera i Rysslandsfonder.
Areans omkrets eller omkretsens area?
I vår studie har vi valt att undersöka i vilken utsträckning eleverna har förståelse för de geometriska begreppen area och omkrets och framförallt om eleverna kan skilja på dessa begrepp. Vi valde att genomföra undersökningen med hjälp av en enkät som besvarades av totalt 152 elever från 8 klasser fördelat på skolår 8 och 9. Enkäten består av rena matematiska uppgifter såväl som textuppgifter för att prova olika infallsvinklar hos våra informanter. Resultatet visar på att det finns brister och svårigheter med att skilja de båda begreppen åt vilket ytterligare förstärker vår egen erfarenhet samt tidigare studier på området. De största problemen uppstår när det gäller att hantera areabegreppet.

Välkommen : förslag till ny stadspark i Göteborg
The landscape is a great asset for Göteborg as a city and places in the landscape are
much used by the public. This diploma work deals with the question of how nature
in Göteborg can become more accessible and how a place in it can be supplemented
with new landscape elements. It is a proposal for a new urban park at Björlanda
peninsula in the western part of Hisingen, Göteborg, which today belongs to
the Swedish Armed Forces and is a part of the Nature-2000 area "Nordre älvs
estuarium". The reason for choosing this place is that it is the only area around the
costal area in Göteborg that has not been built on and that it contains a very varied
landscape.
The proposal is presented as three different broschures, dated 10-20 years ahead:
A map of a possible system of urban parks including a detail of such a park,
Västra Hisingen (the western parts of Hisingen)
The idea with a system of urban parks is to make the landscape generally more
accessible and maybe open it for people that do not use it today.
A broschure of the central area Välkommen, with my design proposal for an
urban park at Björlanda peninsula
The design aims to utilize the landscape elements water, mountains, vegetation
and sky and to intensify the experience of them.
A flora for Välkommen that shows a selection of plants for the design proposal.
Riskhantering i offentliga och privata företag
The purpose of our essay is to investigate and compare the general and operational risk management in the private and public sector. As an introduction to the subject we describe the differences and similarities between the two sectors. Our survey is based on the term risk, the definitions of risk management, its development and finally the process of risk management. Since our survey is focusing on operational risks we also describe the operational process and the specific operational risks.The method we used to investigate the subject is a quantitative method. A survey was sent to 100 companies in Sweden, of which 50 were private companies and 50 were public companies.

Vad utgör resebyråns rättsliga ställning i förhållande till flygbolaget och resenären?
Normally when purchasing a trip, an airline, a travel agency and a traveler is included in the purchasing process. Mostly a travel agency acts as an intermediary between the airline and the traveler. The travel agency is not considered to have any major part to the contractual relationship, usually the purchase agreement is considered to be covered by the airline and the traveler as the main parties. This is essentially the view shown from a legal perspective on the specific area. The application of legal provisions on the travel agency?s legal status may nevertheless bring a certain amount of ambiguity in the interpretation.
Modellen och materialet
Tycho Hedéns Väg in Uppsala has evolved from being a through fare passage and highwayto the oversized road frame running through the city it is today. At the present time, dueto the relocation of the E4 highway east of Uppsala, Tycho Hedéns road creates a barrierbetween the north eastern area of Uppsala and the remaining parts of the city centre. Theroad is designed to endure heavy traffic and high speed limits, generating a surrounding urbanarea were inhabitants are complied to follow the standards set for a high traffic-accessibleenvironment. Furthermore, the heavy traffic has led to the turning of both urban roadsidesaway from the actual road. The aim of this project and proposal is to show the possibilities ofhow the innate features of Tycho Hedéns road can be used more advantageously to mend thecity area of Uppsala.
Förskolebarn med externaliserade och internaliserade problem är ingen homogen grupp
Some children develop externalizing and internalizing behavior problems at an early age. Previous research has often treated these children as a homogeneous group, the purpose of this study is to show that this group of children is in fact heterogeneous. Data from theSOFIAstudy was used and preschool pedagogues were informants. The sample contained 2121 boys and girls between 3-5 years. Groups of children with the behavior problems and the risk factors AD/HD symptoms, fearlessness and callous-unemotional traits were created.
Glacialgeologi i fjällranden : Undersökning för att spåra värdberget till ett zinkmineraliserat block
The valleys southwest of Storuman has been exploration targets for sulfide mineralizationslike the Laisvall Pb-Zn deposit since the late 1900 when several mineralized boulders wherefound. No previous glaciogeological survey has been made. This report focus on thedirections of local paleoiceflows and glacial transportation in the area of Skikkisjön, thelocation of the westernmost mineralized boulder, found in 2010. The aim of this study hasbeen to create a picture of the glaciogeological evolution of the area in order to determinatepossible hostrock areas. My results suggest that the geomorphology and transportationoccurred during a western icedivide located in the nearby mountainrange.
