Kritisk design a?r ett forsknings- och innovationsomra?de under utveckling. Teorin har anva?nts inom ma?nga designrelaterade omra?den och a?mnar fa? konsumenterna att bli mer kritiska na?r det kommer till hur deras vardagliga liv styrs av olika fo?resta?llningar, va?rderingar, ideologier och behavioristiska mo?nster som finns info?rlivade i design (Dunne & Raby, 2001). Eftersom kritisk design a?r en teori som stra?var efter att fo?ra?ndra i praktiken ligger utmaningen idag i att skapa praktiska exempel som visar hur utfo?randet kan ga? till, vilket a?r en no?dva?ndighet fo?r att teorin ska kunna utvecklas (Bardzell et al., 2012).Denna studie a?mnar vara metodutvecklande genom att skapa en uppsa?ttning verktyg utifra?n utvalda delar (teoretiska metoder och perspektiv) ur kritisk design.

The aim of this study is to examine the Christian community called Plymouth Brethren and how they interpret religion in relation to their entrepreneurship and business practices. The community has a strong faith in God, uses the Bible as the guiding principle in everyday life, and also has the ambition to live together within the group in seclusion from the rest of society.Based on interviews with Plymouth Brethren in the county of Småland, the study describes how they perceive the relationship between the Christian faith and entrepreneurship and practice religion in the context of their family business. As the study illustrates the Christian faith is significantly motivating their enterprises of business and the Bible is their guiding principle even when it comes to how they should run their businesses..

Introduction In order to foster innovation of medical devices within the healthcare sector, a collaboration project, PUSH, has been initiated including the hospitals managed by the Stockholm County Council. The collaboration aims to capture ideas from employees and turn them into so called ?high-practice? products as well as facilitate the possibilities for medical device companies to try out their products in the settings of healthcare. Collaborations for innovation, comparable to the PUSH project, can be found in both Swedish and foreign regions, but some of them fail to survive due to obstacles affecting the progress of each collaboration. Avoiding the same destiny will be a challenge to the PUSH project.Purpose The purpose is to search for factors affecting organizational collaboration concerning innovation systems for medical device development.

The study was performed for the Swedish Regional Forestry Board in Södra Götaland. The study examines broadleaf plantations on former farmland that were planted between 1991 and 1996 with subsidy payments for conversion of farmland into forest. In particular, the study reviews forests planted in 1991-92 and 1994-96. In the early 1990s, Swedish agriculture was deregulated and direct subsides to farmers ended. The Swedish state instead granted farmers financial support and offered incentives for conversion of farmland and investments in order to make their unproductive land productive. The state supported conversion of farmland to broadleaf forest, forest for energy biomass production, or establishment of wetlands on former farmland. The County Administrative Boards and Regional Forestry Boards together monitored the planting of broadleaf forests.

Denna studie har som syfte att unders?ka anv?ndningen av b?cker och leksaker i fritidshemmet f?r att skapa en inkluderande l?rmilj? med fokus p? interkulturella relationer. F?r att uppn? att svara p? det syftet har vi arbetat efter f?ljande fr?gest?llningar: - P? vilket s?tt bidrar materialval s?som b?cker och leksaker till att fr?mja f?rst?else f?r m?ngkulturalitet p? fritidshemmet? - Hur arbetar l?rare p? fritidshemmet bland annat genom b?cker och leksaker f?r att skapa en inkluderande l?rmilj?? F?r att besvara dessa fr?gest?llningar har vi bes?kt tre skolor i V?stra G?talands L?n d?r vi gjort en inventering av material p? fritidshemmets verksamheter, intervjuat sex stycken verksamma l?rare och sedan gjort en kvantitativ redovisning p? b?cker. F?r att analysera v?r insamlade data har vi utg?tt fr?n tv? olika teorier; sociokulturella och interkulturella perspektiven. I studien har vi kommit fram till tre huvudsakliga teman: 1.

The core process is responsible for internal business development and is the process that runs through the organization and the results which creates a value for the customer. Some research suggests that identification of the client's conscious or unconscious needs clarifying the so-called core process in the organization and operations can thus be more effective. The study aims to identify and analyze the experience of the core process within child health care. The method has been interviews with nine managers and 10 clinic nurses in a county. The results show a lack of knowledge regarding core process and process work.

Bakgrund: Stress, utmattningssyndrom och sjukskrivningar har setts öka under de senaste årtiondena inom hälso- och sjukvåden. Kraven på hälso- och sjuk-vårdspersonal var stora och sjuksköterskor såg arbetsbelastningen som den största orsaken till stress vilket hade ett negativt inflytande på arbetstillfredsställelsen. Syfte: var att belysa preventiva åtgärder mot stress och utbrändhet bland sjukskö-terskor. Metod: En litteraturstudie genomfördes och litteratursökningen gjordes i databaserna PubMed, PsycInfo och Cinahl. Sexton artiklar kvalitetsgranskades och analyserades textnära.

Fysisk planering a?r ett omra?de som har mo?jlighet att pa?verka ma?nga olika delar i samha?llet. Det inneba?r sa?ledes att arbetet med en god fysisk planering a?r viktigt fo?r att samha?llet ska fungera pa? ett bra sa?tt. Denna studie underso?ker na?rmre hur fysisk planering anva?nds fo?r att fra?mja ma?nniskors ha?lsa och va?lbefinnande i de tre kommunerna Stockholm, Go?teborg och Malmo?.

Bakgrund: Forskning pa?visar pa? skolor som arbetsplats en o?kad stressniva? och minskat va?lbefinnande. Fokus i denna studie var utifra?n detta att underso?ka hur rektorn i sin ledarrollresonerade kring motivation och personalens va?lbefinnande pa? arbetsplatsen ur ett salutogent perspektiv samt att se om rektorns fo?rsta?else av dessa begrepp ansa?gs vara ett redskap i den kommunala grundskolan fo?r att utveckla sin personal.Syfte: Studien utforskade hur rektorer i kommunala grundskolan uppfattade att de motiverade sin personal och skapade va?lbefinnande pa? arbetsplatsen.Metod: Elva kvalitativa intervjuer med rektorer gjordes. Data analyserades genom en kvalitativ inneha?llsanalys.

The Christianisation of Sweden is not much about religion. Instead, there is much to be gained by looking at it as a colonial situation with changing social identities and power structures. This is evident by the prevalence of hybridisations in the archaeological material.Some of the material categories that show the clearest example of changes are the burials from the 9th century up until about AD 1200. This is exemplified by two different Iron Age burial sites in Stockholm county, Uppland, Sweden: RAÄ 59, Valsta, in Norrsunda parish and RAÄ 40, Lilla Ullevi, in Bro parish; They both show hybridisation by involving older elements with newer ones during a time period when the church was not quite established in the region yet.The Christianisation of Sweden is a colonial situation, but the research tradition has often also used a colonial lens from the 19th and early 20th century in its approach to the period. This means that the same questions, interpretations and conclusions, often based on written sources, have been continuously reused for a long time, which has had consequences for the archaeology in Sweden..

The purpose of this study is to investigate how activities in elderly care matters to well-being among elderly people, from both user perspective and staff perspective. The study is made out of a qualitative method, this to create a deep-going understanding of how the people participating in the investigation are experiencing the impact of activities on well-being from their unique situation. Personal interviews have been used as method. Six persons were participating, three elderly persons and three persons working as staff. All interviews were made in a ?short-time? ward in the county of Västernorrland.The result of the investigation shows that the elderly people that were interviewed not directly related the participation in activities to feelings of well-being.

I wanted to focus this essay on the operative?s perspective of running religious organizations in the city of Karlstad and to see positive and negative aspects of their day-to-day life working with their organization, following up with a comparison of the difference and the similarities between those groups. After delimitating which groups I was going to examine, I implemented a qualitative study of four people, from two different religious groups, whom I performed interviews with. My method of performing these interviews and understanding the perspective of the informants, I had a semi structured interview guide along with a recent study that was opting for similar conclusions, only in a different county and with different input perspective. The result of my study showed a difference in establishment of their region but with a lot of similarities in problems with their religious and structural premises.
