Vändpunkt : En studie av behandlingsupplevelser vid Magelungens dagverksamheter
Denna studie är en fallstudie vid två av Magelungens dagverksamheter. Studien inkluderar tre olika perspektiv: ungdom, förälder och behandlare. Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka informanternas upplevelser av ungdomens tid på Magelungens dagverksamhet. Detta har gjorts genom en kvalitativ metod där sekundärdata, i form av nio intervjuer genomförda av Magelungens forskningsgrupp, har bearbetats och analyserats genom meningskoncentrering. Studien tar avstamp i den kunskapslucka kring kvalitativ forskning om dagverksamheter som forskningsgenomgången visar på.Resultatet tyder på att informanterna generellt sett är nöjda med tiden på dagverksamheten.
Vi gör det för vår överlevnad : En kvalitativ studie om tre personer medtillhörlighet inom svensk organiserad brottslighet.
The objective of this thesis was to research and gain knowledge about people involved in organized crime in Sweden. By conducting interviews we were able to analyze what factors played a role in an individual's choice to become a member of a criminal gang, as well as to gain an overall picture of these people. The qualitative research was carried out in three different cities in Sweden. Three people, aged between 30 and 60, who are currently members of a gang, were interviewed. In these interviews they shared their life stories in terms of childhood, youth, gang involvement as well as their hopes for the future.The results were then further analyzed to explore any similarities and differences among the participating individuals.
Folkbiblioteket i den statliga kulturpolitiken: En ideologianalytisk studie av propositionen Tid för kultur
This Bachelor's thesis examines and describes the ideas and ideological traits surrounding the public library within the governmental cultural policy. The Bachelor's thesis demonstrates how the public library ? even though its relevance in the modern society has shifted over time ? has maintained a connection to the governmental cultural policy and has therefore been shaped by the ideological changes in the political sphere as a whole. The main issues are: Which ideas concerning the public library's functions are expressed in the governmental cultural policy? Which ideological tendencies can be identified in the national cultural policy? Which ideas concerning the public library can be extracted through the found ideological tendencies? The method used in order to study the governmental bill is an ideology analysis based on a framework created by Dorte Skot-Hansen.
Förvärv och försäljning av fastighet med förorenad mark : Särskilt gällande ansvar och friskrivningsklausuler
Properties are bought and sold daily, which means that it is of great importance with rules that regulate the acquisition. The rules on who should be held liable for a property brought to a head when the acquisition relates to a property that is loaded with contaminated soil. The purpose with this thesis is to investigate who could be held liable for contaminated land and also whether an exclusion clause can affect the separation of responsibilities. Two different liabilities can occur depending on which law that should be applicable, MB or JB.MB's rules apply to anyone who may be subject to decontamination responsibilities, which is regulated in Chapter 10.

Lyckas hedgefonder infria uppställda förvaltningsmål? : En analytisk studie av svenska hedgefonders historiska presentationer i termer av risk, avkastning och korrelation
Hedgefonder har under det senaste decenniet blivit ett allt mer uppmärksammat inslag på den svenska fondmarknaden och tillväxten har varit stark både till storleken förvaltat kapital och antalet hedgefonder. Själva grundidén för hedgefonder är att de oberoende av marknadsutvecklingen alltid skall generera positiv avkastning. Låg risk samt låg korrelation med aktie- och räntemarknaderna är ytterligare argument vilka bör göra hedgefonderna till intressanta inslag i investerares totala portföljer.Problemområde: Hedgefonder kommer säkerligen att utgöra betydande delar av svenska investerares kapitalplaceringar i framtiden vilket gör dem till intressanta studieobjekt. Intressant ur en investerares perspektiv är att undersöka huruvida hedgefonderna infriar uppställda förvaltningsmål.Syfte: Genom kvantitativ beräkning ämnar vi analysera de svenska hedgefondernas historiska prestationer i form av absolut avkastning, riskjusterad avkastning, volatilitet samt korrelation, i syfte att se om detta motsvarar de förväntningar en investerare bör ha för sitt hedgefondsparande.Metod: Undersökningen baseras på sekundärdata i form av undersökta fonders kurshistorik, samt index- och räntehistorik. Studien är teoretisk i den mening att vi använt oss av vedertagen ekonomisk teori som vi tillämpat, empirisk då vi själva genomfört beräkningar för att sedan kunna analysera resultaten och dra egna slutsatser av dessa.Resultat: Flertalet fonder har svårt att uppfylla målet om ?absolut avkastning?.
Språkstörning i ett flerspråksperspektiv
Syftet med vår undersökning var att vi ville ta reda på vilka metoder logopeder använder när de fastställer diagnosen språkstörning hos flerspråkiga barn och om där finns risk för fel- diagnostisering. Vi ville även ta reda på hur man jobbar med dessa barn i språkförskolor. Vi valde att göra en kvalitativ undersökning med halvstrukturerade intervjuer med fyra logopeder. Vi valde även att göra en observation av en logoped i arbetet med barn på en språkavdelning på en förskola. Resultatet av vår undersökning visade att det finns för få tester som är anpassade till flerspråkiga barn.
Öppenhet och kostnad för eget kapital: En studie på den svenska marknaden
Previous research has discussed how voluntary disclosure relates to the cost of equity capital. Theories of estimation risk support a negative association between disclosure and cost of equity capital, as empirically documented by Botosan (1997) among others. In this Bachelor thesis we investigate whether such a relationship exists on the Swedish capital market. Using the CAPM to estimate the cost of equity capital and a disclosure index based on Aktiespararen?s annual evaluation of corporate disclosure, we test a model where disclosure explains cost of equity capital.
A literature study on Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP) : classification, resistance mechanisms, risk factors and clonal distribution
The increased frequency of reported Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP) is of great concern to small animal healthcare due to limited options of antimicrobial therapy. The aim of this literature study is to investigate 1) characteristics and classification of
S. pseudintermedius, 2) resistance mechanisms and emergence of MRSP, 3) risk factors for selection of MRSP, and 4) clonal distribution around the world. S. pseudintermedius is a skin and mucosal commensal in healthy dogs and cats, but can cause infections, including pyoderma.
Beta-lactam antibiotics inhibit bacterial growth by binding to the penicillin binding protein (PBP), a vital enzyme in the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall.
Brott & Skatt : En undersökning av nystartade aktiebolag på Skattekontor Östra Göteborg
BACKGROUND The economic crimes related to the taxation authorities (SKM), aim at evading paying taxes and/or wrongly obtaining tax revenue. SKM has noticed that many newly established companies have intended to be carried on, only for a short period of time and with the aim of generating grant-revenues and in the meantime omit to pay or wrongly account for taxes. SKM wants to investigate the possibilities to develop a method of analysis to identify those corporations. PURPOSE The purpose of this essay is to make a survey of, and identify companies, who fail in their obligations concerning income-tax return and paying taxes and charges and to try to see what is characteristic for those companies in order to find out a method of analysis. Further a study of literature will be done especially concerning who will commit economic crimes and the reasons why they do it.

The aim of this thesis is to describe and analyze the geographical distribution of everyday criminality in the town of Borlänge during the year 2002 and to analyze which measures to be taken in the physical social planning to decrease this everyday criminality there. The term everyday criminality is here to be understood as those categories of crime that appear most frequently in the records of reports to the police every year. Here two kinds of crime have been in focus, thefts from cars and office burglary.In fulfilling this aim two main questions have been answered. The first one is how the everyday criminality was distributed geographically in the town of Borlänge during the year 2002. The second one is which measures to be taken in the physical social planning to decrease this everyday criminality in the town of Borlänge.In order to answer the first question a spatial autocorrelation analysis, Local Moran LISA has been used.
Utvärdering av rörelsemönster hos öring (Salmo trutta) utifrån otolitmikrokemi
The classic view of trout (Salmo trutta) life history is that trout begins its life in freshwater, migrates to the ocean after about 1-4 years and then returns to freshwater to spawn. As trout fry have been caught at the mouth of the River Emån, near the Baltic Sea, researchers have speculated that some trout emigrate during their first year of life. The purpose of this study was to describe the variation in the length of time trout reside in freshwater before they migrate to the ocean for the first time. Another purpose was to investigate whether it was possible to discern where and how long the fish spent in freshwater and saltwater during different parts of their lives. Between 2007 and 2009, 23 adult trout were captured in the River Emån in southeastern Sweden.
Skattning av prognostiska faktorer för gradering av smärtans komplexitet hos patienter i behov av multimodal smärtrehabilitering inom två vårdnivåer.
AbstractPURPOSE: The aim of this study was to describe and compare possible differences regarding selected prognostic factors for disability between patients with non-specific chronic pain who were about to start a multidisciplinary treatment program (MMR), either within primary care (MMR1) or hospital care (MMR2).METHODS: The study had a descriptive and comparative cross sectional design. Eighty-nine patients were recruited consecutively when they were about to start their team treatment (50 in MMR1,39 in MMR2). The measurements were; Evaluation of self-reported self-efficacy for eight daily activities (STIVA-8), The Pain Belief Screening Instrument (PBSI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).RESULTS: The study found some significant differences between the answers from patients in MMR1 and those from patients in MMR2. For instance, patients in MMR2 estimated lower self-efficacy according to STIVA-8 than patients in MMR1. Also, there were fewer low risk patients and more high risk patients in MMR2 than in MMR1 regarding pain intensity according to PBSI.

Intensivvårdssjuksköterskans åtgärder som kan underlätta urträning från respirator : En litteraturstudie
Stick- och skärskador är ett problem inom sjukvården. Förekomsten är störst inom operationsverksamhet, där stora mängder blod och andra kroppsvätskor samt vassa instrument hanteras. Risken för blodsmitta varierar för de vanligaste blodsmittorna HBV, HCV och HIV men när tillbud sker finns alltid en möjlig risk för blodsmitta.Syftet är att identifiera orsaker till stick- och skärskador samt beskriva åtgärder för att minska risken för blodsmitta under den intraoperativa fasen.I ett operationsteam ingår många olika yrkesgrupper som arbetar nära varandra på en begränsad yta och risken för tillbud ökar Risken för operationsteamet kommer aldrig helt att kunna elimineras, men genom att identifiera orsaksfaktorer, såsom handskperforation, operationslängd och blodstänk finns möjlighet att påverka sin egen och övriga i operationsteamets säkerhet. Genom att använda olika skyddsåtgärder som dubbla/indikatorhandskar, mun och ansiktsskydd samt användandet av preventiva arbetsmetoder som Hands-free teknik (HFT) och trubbiga nålar kan eventuella risker för blodexponering och en potentiell risk för blodsmitta minska..
Villkor under garantitid i entreprenadförsäkring, en jämförande studie.
In Sweden there is no legal regulation for the obligations and responsibilities between the contracting parties within the construction, civil engineering and installation sector. To clarify uncertainties regarding the liability, actors from theses sectors have agreed upon a voluntary regulation, called the General Conditions of Contract.When insurance companies want to enter the Swedish construction insurance market, they face a regulatory framework that not only regulates the construction market, it also imposes requirements on terms and conditions that must be included in the construction insurance. These terms are perceived as ambiguities and create difficulties and inhibit the ability for these insurance companies to offer competitive insurances. One of the terms that create these difficulties is the guarantee period, which is period of time starting from handing over the construction project to the employer, during this period the contractor still has the responsibility for the construction project. The guarantee period regulated by the General Condition of Contracts differs from the international use of the term both in length and in content.
