Syftet med denna studie är att utifrån befintlig officiell kriminalstatistik, självdeklarationsundersökningen i årskurs nio, SCB:s Undersökning av levnadsförhållanden och Brå:s Nationella trygghetsundersökning belysa och jämföra ungdomsvåldets utveckling i Stockholms, Västra Götalands och Skåne län mellan åren 1995 och 2008 och sedan jämföra de resultaten med statistiken för hela Sverige. Resultatet av dessa statistiska data ämnar jag analysera, diskutera och problematisera utifrån tidigare forskning i ämnet, sambandet mellan alkohol och våld och urbaniseringens inverkan på, och samband med våldsbrott.De frågeställningar som studien är tänkt att besvara är följande:- Hur har ungdomsvåldet utvecklats i Stockholms, Västra Götalands och Skåne län mellan åren 1995 och 2008?- Hur ser denna utveckling ut i förhållande till statistiken gällande Sveriges riksnivå under samma period?- Vilka skillnader eller likheter går att finna dels mellan de tre länen och dels mellan länen och hela Sverige under nämnda period?Sammanfattningsvis tyder studiens resultat inte på någon ökning av antal våldsbrott som begås av ungdomar under perioden 1995-2008. Utsattheten för våld eller hot bland ungdomar ser inte heller ut att ha ökat under samma period. Dessa resultat gäller för samtliga län och även för hela Sverige.

?Studies have shown that patients receiving mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit (ICU), who are entirely dependent on the nursing staff, often experience frustration due to a temporary loss of the voice source. Limited communication is an important factor contributing to patient discomfort. Nursing staff also report communication as frustrating and difficult.The aim of the present study is to introduce a neck-type electrolarynx as a communication aid in an ICU, to study the nursing staff experiences of communication with tracheotomized patients receiving mechanical ventilation, and to examine the patient´s experiences regarding communicative abilities. Communication between a ventilator treated, tracheotomized patient and members of the nursing staff was recorded and analyzed according to principles of Conversation Analysis (CA).The results show that several members of the nursing staff experience difficulties communicating with tracheotomized patients receiving mechanical ventilation.

Detta arbete tog avstamp i ett intresse för förhållandet mellan utbildningspolitiska frågor och hur de lokalt implementeras i verksamheten. Jag valde att fokusera på förstelärarreformen och att undersöka vilka av de från regeringen föreslagna arbetsuppgifterna som högstadie- och gymnasielärare ansåg att förstelärarna på skolan utförde, samt om de ansåg att arbetsuppgifterna förbättrade studieresultaten. Vidare undersöktes hur lärarna på ett mer generellt plan uppfattade tjänstens implementering på skolan, samt vad lärarna ansåg om förstelärarreformen som helhet. För att undersöka eventuella skillnader mellan olika lärargrupper användes Bourdieus teori om kapital samt en grund i professionsteori.Arbetet baseras på data insamlat via enkäter och intervjuer. Enkäter skickades ut till 17 högstadie- och gymnasieskolor i Uppsala- Enköping och Knivsta kommun.

This report describes the development of a sample loader for my diploma work at Q-linea AB in Uppsala. The sample loader will replace the process of loading fluid samples into Q-linea?s instrument for biomolecule analysis. The earlier process was done by hand and was a time consuming and inefficient task.The work was initiated with a design phase where an overview of the system was created. The sample loader will be receiving text commands from a PC that coordinates all the subsystems like pumps and lasers on the analysis instrument.

There are numerous questions to be asked when your task is to plan a small community?s future development. Is it possible to suggest something new and modern? What considerations should be taken concerning the existing situation? What is an appropriate size for the new development? Where is it possible to build and what is the most appropriate method to use?In this master´s thesis I have tried to develop and describe a working-process where I execute a complete landscape character analysis for the whole community in question to get the answers to where and how it would be most appropriate to develop a village like Flädie without destroying its current character.Flädie is a typical small village in the countryside of Skåne, Sweden. It is strongly effected by the expansive and urban region it?s located in but is still rural in character.

The aim of this Masters thesis is to examine the view of market-led culture, focusing on literature, within Swedish governmental cultural policy. The main issue is to discover changes in attitude towards cooperation between culture and business by comparing the attitudes and ideas expressed in the governmental policy documents from the 1970s with the governmental policy documents from the 1990s. To illuminate, and with an effort to explain, these attitudes and ideas expressed in the documents their political and social context has been studied as well. The theoretical starting point is two political ideologies, and Danish cultural policy researcher Dorte Skot-Hansens theories of cultural policy in the Nordic countries. The methodological starting point is two variants of analyses that are textual ones.

The purpose of this study in the psychology of religion is to explore the process of an individual?s shift in orienting system, from a religious to an atheistic. The materials used are autobiographical accounts obtained from two books. One that has been used as a primary source and one as a secondary. By using Rambo?s process oriented theory of religious conversion relevant themes and categories were chosen and later subjected to further analysis using Pargament?s theory of religion and coping.

In this essay, we attempt to study and analyze the work towards equality between men and women at the university of Örebro, Sweden.

We also have the ambition to develop our theory and ad an organizational theme focusing on actors..

AbstractTitle: Konstruktionen av sverigedemokraternas va?ljareAuthor: Magnus Persson & Max LindbergTutor: Leonor Camaue?rCourse: Bachelor thesis, Media and communication. The aim of this essay is to use a Critical Discourse Analytical (CDA) approach to analyse the construction of the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna) voters in news articles to see if and how they are separated as a group from the Swedish democratic community. This aim is broken down into two questions.How are the Sweden Democrats (SD) voters constructed in news articles in Dagens Nyheter (DN) and Aftonbladet (AB) regarding the aftermath of the national elections?What differences are there between the portrayal of the Sweden Democrats voters and the agents that are used as opposition to them?To answer these questions we have used CDA. We have taken our approach from a modified version of Teun Van Dijks CDA model for analysing news articles.

The aim of this Master's thesis is to study how generational identities are conveyed in the reception of two debut novels, Jack by Ulf Lundell and Allt by Martina Lowden. Both novels have been considered literary and social expressions of their generations. The empirical material consists of 14 reviews in Swedish daily press from the time of publication of Jack and Allt, respectively. The thesis revolves around the following questions: How is the generational identity defined in terms of lifestyle practices, milieus and other social circumstances? To what extent are structured factors such as gender and class considered? How are the critics considering the reflexive project of the self? I base the theoretical framework on Anthony Giddens' theories about identity creation in the late modern society.

A citation analysis of all 18 theses is carried out.

ästerbottens färgrika stenskatter - Spatiala presentationer och analyser av skifferfynd i Västerbottens län(The colorful stone treasures of Västerbotten ? Spatial presentations and analysis of slate artefacts in Västerbotten County)This essay pertains to the spatial distributions and analysis of slate artefacts in Västerbotten County, Sweden. The authors aim is to give answers the issues of what the distribution patterns of slate artefacts can tell us about the prehistoric humans in this area. By using GIS software and geospatial analysis the author strengthens the theories about separate interior and coastal economies, as well as the theory that the main share of production of slate artifacts are linked in the interior of the County, the author also refers to earlier research, both domestic and international. The theories of non-pragmatic preferences by the late Mesolithic and Neolithic people for red colored slate are also added to.

This report describes an analysis of WebGL together with JavaScript with the aim to examine its limitations, strengths and weaknesses. This analysis was performed by building a 2D game engine containing some dynamic elements such as water, smoke, fire, light, and more. Different algorithms have been tested and analyzed to provide a clearer picture of how these work together. The report will go through the most basic functions of the game engine and describe briefly how these work.The result shows that JavaScript with WebGL can be considered to be a potent toolsets, despite the difficulties caused by JavaScript.In summary, similar projects can be recommended as Javascript and WebGL proved both fun and incredibly rewarding to work with..

This thesis aims to open the Pandora?s Box of hedge fund styles through an index-based style analysis. This information asymmetry is due to both less strict disclosure requirements and inherent nature of hedge funds. We employ a multiple unconditional linear regression model wherein 23 Swedish hedge funds are regressed on 10 style indices. In addition to the increased interest in hedge funds and their performance drivers, our unique approach with regressing return on return motivates this study.
