In using a qualitative method have I interviewed six women and six men taking care of their wives respectively husbands suffering from physical disease, disfunction or demental disease. The purpose was to find out whether male and female caretakers were differently influenced in their situation, relationship and in their partners, when they became caretakers of their spouse, depending on what the partner suffered from.The results showed that, when a husband or wife was hit by disease or disfunction, the caretaker was influenced both in the partners situation, the relationship and the role towards the partner. The couple still lived in a close relationship and could communicate. For the carers spouse suffered from a demental disease, there was no communication as before or possibility to remember. The carers also felt the loss of community, nearness and sympathy.

Titel:                Upplev Luleå Hockey - Publikupplevelser i Coop Norrbotten Arena.Författare:        Martin Gwiazdowski & Marcus Mattsson.Examinator:         Anna Hafsteinsson Östenberg.Datum:                  2013-05-24.Nyckelord:            Hockey, Upplevelser, Luleå, Publik, Marknadsföring.___________________________________________________________________________ Problemområde: Upplevelseorienterade studier har vanligtvis en företagsekonomisk utgångspunkt, detta lämnar det idrottsvetenskapliga området relativt outforskat. De studier som finns är av internationell härkomst vilket gör det svårt, för att inte säga omöjligt att överföra till den svenska folkrörelsen. Studierna är även allt som oftast generella och behandlar inte ishockeyn separat från andra idrotter vilket medför ett akademiskt tomrum. Denna studie åsyftar till att bidra med ny kunskap och utgöra en språngbräda för fortsatt forskning.Syfte:Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka vad Luleå Hockeys åskådare anser om publikupplevelsen i Coop Norrbotten Arena i dagsläget och vad - om alls något - de anser kan göras för att skapa en mer tillfredsställande upplevelse.Metod:Studien har tillämpat en hermeneutisk kunskapsteoretisk utgångspunkt och det empiriskt insamlade materialet har inhämtats genom webbenkäter, fysiska enkäter, intervjuer och observationer. I och med att mer än en insamlingsmetod har valts har metodtriangulering tillämpats i denna studie som uttryckligen har en kvalitativ ansats.Resultat:Studiens resultat påvisar att det finns utrymme för utveckling vad avser publikupplevelser i Coop Norrbotten Arena.

Denna explorativa studie genomfördes med en flerfaldig forskningsstrategi. Empirin bygger på intervjuer och enkäter med totalt 238 officerare varav 228 var yrkesverksamma vid studiens genomförande. Undersökningsfrågorna avhandlade drivkrafter som fick yrkesofficeren att vara kvar i yrket. Resultatet av undersökningen gav att de avgörande drivkrafterna för officersyrket bestod av ett flertal faktorer vilka inordnade under Maslows behovsteori visade sig fylla alla steg i behovshierarkin. Vissa av de avgörande faktorerna uppvisade dock skillnader i viktningsgrad främst beroende av variabler som ålder och vapengrenstillhörighet, men även av variabler som motivationsnivå, utlandserfarenhet samt tidigare civil erfarenhet.

This essay criticizes common theories within the three traditional perspectives, conflict management, conflict resolution and conflict transformation, for not being able to explain and/or generate solutions to the problems of fundamentalism and religious terrorism in a satisfying manner. This essay is trying to synthesize an alternative analytical framework that better can explaining these phenomena and generate potential solutions. The frameworks ontological ground is laid out using different readings of Foucault, thereby seeing the subject as formed by discourses, material processes and institutions. Fundamentalism and terrorism are seen as a violent resistance to repressed subjectivity, but the form of resistance depends on the discursive and non discursive surroundings. This gives rise to different forms of resistance; the production of discourses and founding of groups and the entry of marginalized people in these groups.

Nattklubbslivet i Karlstad ser idag helt olika ut vid en jämförelse mellan torsdagar och helgdagar. På torsdagar har Arena mest gäster medan Nöjesfabriken och Blue Moon Bar har de flesta gästerna på helger. Studenterna spelar här en viktig roll då främsta anledningen till Arenas popularitet på torsdagar beror på att de anordnar studenttorsdagar. Arena ser sedan ett mönster att studenterna väljer de andra nattklubbarna på helgerna och det här vill de ändra på. Syftet med uppsatsen är att klarlägga vilka faktorer som ligger till grund för studenters val av nattklubb, att försöka hitta förklaringar på studenters attityder gentemot nattklubben för att försöka ändra dessa samt att klargöra genom vilka kanaler som studenterna med fördel kan nås.Den teoretiska referensramen är indelad i tre olika avsnitt; begrepp, konsumentbeteende och marknadskommunikation.I en kvantitativ enkätundersökning som gjorts vid Karlstads universitet har 184 studenter svarat på frågor vi funnit relevanta för syftet.

This master thesis? purpose is to examine the role of Swedish universities in the prevention of extremism and terrorism. Depending on how the universities look upon their role in preventing extremism and promoting democracy among their students, extremism can either flourish or be restrained in the higher learning environment. An unclear standpoint against extremism from the universities side could make it possible for extremism to prosper at the universities, and students with extremist opinions may be radicalized and recruited to extremist organizations and terrorism. What are the universities standpoints in the matter whether universities should promote democracy and prevent and restrain extremism and the recruitment of students to extremist organizations? During the study I have mainly been using primary material in the shape of semi structured interviews with predecessors of four Swedish universities.

Studien tog sin början genom ett uppdrag från festivalledningen för Piteå Dansar och Ler. Uppdraget bestod i att uppmärksamma brister i festivalområdets områdesdesign. Under uppdraget framkom att begreppet områdesdesign var oklart och att innebörden växlade beroende på vem jag frågade. Komplexiteten hos begreppet ledde till att studien riktades mot att definiera begreppet områdesdesign. Vid gatufestivaler används stadens centrum som arena. Detta innebär att funktioner och användningsområden, till exempel scener och toaletter, måste anpassas estetiskt och funktionellt till den befintliga stadsmiljön.

The discussion regarding international aid tends to be highly debated for long periods of time. Some individuals are very positive towards aid and some individuals are less positive towards aid. This study aims to broaden the understanding of the aspects behind that. The previous research tends to focus on aid allocation within the EU, or which macro factors could influence which donor countries give to which recipient countries. This study aims to add to the research with which aspects at the individual level can influence the individual's attitude towards international aid from the EU.

Syftet med denna studie är att synliggöra fritidspedagogers uppfattningar kring hur fysisk aktivitet påverkar elevers lärande inom fritidshemmets arena. Studiens frågeställningar består av, vilka typer av fysisk aktivitet upplever fritidspedagoger som särskilt betydelsefulla för elevers lärande? samt vilka pedagogiska möjligheter och hinder uppfattar fritidspedagoger att det finns med fysisk aktivitet på fritidshemmet? Forskningen som denna studie vilar på belyser den fysiska aktivitetens betydelse för barn samtidigt som den fria leken som fysisk aktivitet berörs. Forskningen framhåller även de hinder och möjligheter som kan uppstå i mötet med fysisk aktivitet som lärande inom fritidshemmets arena. Studiens resultat har analyserats med hjälp av den sociokulturella teorin och pragmatismens filosofi avseende på lärande.

In this essay I discuss and analyse if we can witness any signs on regional dimension due to regional representation from our elected representatives in the five constituencies Malmö, Blekinge, Norrbotten, Uppsala and Stockholm. Two seperate terms of office between 1991-94 and 1998-2002 has been compared. In political science there has been much debate about the relationship between voters and their elected. By measuring each and everyone elected representatives in the work of produce introduced bills towards their own constitiency during both terms I have tried to see if there is an occurence of a regional dimension.The theory that´s been applied is based on geographical representation where one might aspect that central metropolitan areas and peripheral regions is somewhat over-represented in legislatures. By using a method of comparison between the five chosen constituencies and theirs elected representatives I have come the the conclusion that there is a weak tendency that this might be the case seen to a regional dimension perspective..

The aim of this paper is to spread some light over contract treatment from the perspective of the District Courts, Social Services and Probation Services, and understand the reason for local variation of the number of people sentenced to contractual treatment.Essential questions asked in this paper are; What advantages and disadvantages are known by the cooperating parties regarding contract treatment in comparison to prison? What parameters are considered when the cooperating parties decide upon contract treatment? What impact does the shared responsibility of cost have? What do the respondents think is the reason for the local variation?In order to answer the essential questions a qualitative and descriptive method has been used to highlight the main question of our study; What is the reason for the local variation in number of contract treatment sentences in Halmstad and Ystads district courts?The paper shows that the local variation between the Probation Services districts is dependent on the conditions to propose a contract treatment. In Halmstad it is not conditioned for the Probation Services to have a responsibility agreement with the Social Services to the same extent as for the Probation Services in Ystad..
