AbstractThis essay is an investigation where I try to gain an increased knowledge of the three assistants? (in the mentally disability profession) opinion about their education and their first years in their profession. I have also tried to answer the questions whether the course mentally disability/functional gives the students a good start in their profession, if there are any flaws or if something is missing in the course or if they can think of any improvements to make the course better.This investigation is performed as a qualitative interview study where three women were interviewed about their education and their first years as assistants? (in the mentally disability profession). All the interviewed women have been working in the care activity for two or three years since they graduated.

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie är att ta reda på hur Transitionen mellan grundskolan och gymnasiet organiseras och utformas för elever i behov av särskilt stöd. Vi har valt att intervjua två rektorer på gymnasieskolor samt en rektor på en grundskola med årskurs 9 elever. Metoden är en kvalitativ forskningsintervju vars huvudsyfte är att fånga fenomenet Transition ur skolledares perspektiv. Anledningen till fokus på skolledare är att det ytterst är skolledarna som är ansvariga för organisering och utformning av Transitionsprocessen för elever i behov av särskilt stöd. Resultatet av vår studie visar att det till stor del är enskilda skolornas normer och traditioner som påverkar Transitionernas kvalité för elever i behov av särskilt stöd. Organisering och utformning utgår dels från vilka resurser och kompetenser skolorna har och dels från vilket specialpedagogiskt perspektiv som dominerar verksamheten..

In Sweden there are currently two separate guidelines you may use whenperforming calculations on frameworks, BKR and the Eurocodes. Although at theend of 2010 you are not allowed to use BKR any longer and only the Eurocodeswill be viable. The aim of this thesis is to explain how the Eurocodes and EKS work and alsohow they compare to the current guideline BKR. Similarities and differencesbetween these guidelines are also discussed so that the reader will get a betterunderstanding of how the Eurocodes are applied. The areas discussed are asfollows:Principles and adviceSafety ClassesSymbols and IndexesLifespanLoads and partial coefficientThe thesis also deals with the impact that this Transition into a new guideline willhave on corporations, guideline costs, education and computer software. As anexample a rough estimate on what costs this Transition will create on a companywith 20 employees is also included. Calculations have been performed in order to investigate how the design valuesdiffer between the two guidelines, the Eurocodes and BKR.

With the ambitions to rehabilitate individuals with different kinds of work disabilities through work, the government owned Samhall AB has a long history as labour market measure in Sweden.To show Samhall AB its importance, the company has requirements to fulfill the goal that around 5 percent of their employees, at Samhall AB, every year shall be transferred to an employment outside the company, which is called Transition. Unfortunately since this goal was introduced it also created several dilemmas. One dilemma is the long lasting female under representation in Transitions from Samhall AB to the regular labour market.The essays main task is to investigate the factors behind the female under presentation in Transition from Samhall AB through a genus perspective and by using quantitative and qualitative method.The main conclusions are that female under representation in Transitions from Samhall AB are basically caused by structural factors. Samhall AB?s strong industrial tradition and particularly the strong segregation between female and males on the regular Swedish labour market may inhibit females in their Transitions.

The downsizing of the Swedish armed forces during the late 20th century and early 21 th century has caused several thousand people to choose a different career. This undergraduate thesis investigates the self-observed employability and work-place competence of a number of Swedish armed forces officers who has made the Transition to a civil career.

The study is made using qualitative interviews, which are analysed using a miexed method inspired by phenomenological method. The findings include that the essence of the respondents emplooyability is a shared work indentity as miltary officers and a common experienced problem in translating their merits.

The forest is characterized by many different values such as those related to forest productivity which are of a big importance for Swedish economy. History has proved that forest resources had helped the country in the Transition from the agricultural to the industrial society. Today Swedish forest industry is among the strongest in Europe and significantly contributing to the Swedish export. The industry provides many direct and indirect job opportunities and is one of the biggest employers in the industry sector. It is also worth to notice that the forest can also generate an additional income for the owners, even if the forestry isn?t their primary income source.

The challenges facing low voltage grids are rising as an increasing number of domestic houses Transition from fossil fueled heating to electricity based heating. Several environmental goals and visions have the same Transition from fossil based power to electricity based power in mind for the transportation sector. One of the most important tools for this transformation is widely regarded to be the electric vehicle. With the demands of the electric vehicle pressuring the power grid, several questions arise regarding the growth of the electric vehicle market and what repercussions it may have on the grid. This paper focuses on a typical low voltage grid in southern Sweden and what effects a growing electric vehicle market may have on it. Through computer-assisted simulations based on several future scenarios regarding the EV market, this paper finds that few modifications and reinforcements are needed on this particular grid within the next 10 to 15 years.

When Deng Xiaoping introduced his reform program, he began China's Transition from a plan economy to a socialist market economy. Liberal theorists often argue that there is an automatic link between ?free market? and ?democracy?, however this link is not evident in China. This contradiction constitutes the problem area of this thesis.With a theoretical framework containing ?totalitarism? and ?Tang Tsous culturalist approach? I have analysed the leadership of CCP (China's Communist Party) and its strategies to maintain the Chinese political system.

Då en demokratisk Transition, där begreppet Transition refererar till den situation som uppstår mellan två olika politiska regimer, avslutas tar en konsoliderande process vid. Denna konsoliderande process ämnar till att förankra det demokratiska styrelseskicket i samhället. Begreppet konsoliderad demokrati är i sig omdebatterat.En Transition, som kan vara en övergång eller en återgång, till demokrati kan föra med sig någon form av auktoritärt arv. Detta auktoritära arvet kan sedan utkristalliseras genom att de valda, civila politikerna inte kan fatta beslut på vissa områden, främst då det handlar om hanteringen av minnet från en auktoritär period. Detta kan i sin tur innebära att det demokratiska styrelseskicket inte förmår tillfredställa dess medborgare och missnöjet expanderar.

Introduktion Bröstcancer är den vanligaste formen av cancer bland kvinnor, i Sverige diagnostiseras omkring 7000 kvinnor varje år. En bröstcancerdiagnos med efterföljande behandling kan innebära en livskris då en kvinna ifrågasätter den egna identiteten varav självuppfattning och kroppsbild är två punkter som kan beröras och orsaka lidande. Med fördjupad kunskap om patienters erfarenheter av hur självbild och kroppsuppfattning påverkas vid en bröstcancerdiagnos och behandling kan sjuksköterskan individualisera stöd och omvårdnadsåtgärder för att minska lidande hos denna patientgrupp. Arbetet har sin utgångspunkt i teorin om att en förändring i en människas hälsotillstånd leder en Transition, då människans upplevelse av sin identitet utmanas. Syfte Syftet med uppsatsen var att beskriva kvinnors upplevelser av en förändrad självbild och kroppsuppfattning vid en bröstcancerdiagnos och behandling.

Att ha genomgått en hjärtinfarkt kan väcka många olika känslor så som chock, rädsla, osäkerhet och känsla av att kroppen aldrig kommer att bli densamma. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva personers upplevelser av livet efter en hjärtinfarkt. I litteraturstudien analyserades 17 studier med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys och med en manifest ansats. Analysen resulterade i fyra kategorier. I resultatet framkom att kroppen kändes förändrad på många sätt och personerna var tvungna att genomföra livsstilsförändringar till följd av hjärtinfarkten.

The curriculum of the Swedish school system explains how the Transitions between the preschool class and the pre-school should be. The co-operation between the organisations should aim for a long term perspective with the students learning process in mind (Lgr11).The pre-school has almost the same aim in their curriculum, as the curriculum of the Swedish school system.The aim with my study is to examine how the teachers from the different organizations relate to knowledge and how they look at the students social interactions. Also how the Transition between the pre-school and the pre-school class is viewed from their point of view. How do the teachers from the different organisations comprehend knowledge?How do the teachers from the different organisations comprehend the social abilities?How do the teachers from the different organisations work and interact in terms of the Transition between the pre-school and the pre-school class?The study that has been made is about the Transitions between the pre-school and the pre-school class. It´s been investigated by doing interviews with teachers from both the pre-school and the pre-school class.

Mot bakgrund av Lipsets moderniseringsteori undersöker vi strukturella orsaker till varför Kuwait, Ryssland och Turkiet inte genomgått en Transition till demokrati, trots en relativt hög grad av modernisering och ekonomisk utveckling efter kalla krigets slut. Vi problematiserar begreppet ekonomisk utveckling och diskuterar olika demokratidefinitioner och demokratiklassificeringar. Utifrån tidigare forskning formulerar vi åtta hypoteser som vi i vår analys prövar på våra analysobjekt. Vår analys resulterar i att Kuwait och Rysslands ekonomiska utveckling inte har bidragit med ökning av demokratisering men däremot har utvecklingen stabiliserat regimerna. Turkiets differentiella ekonomiska utveckling medförde att resultatetet för landet blev olika.
