Unga kvinnors attityder till den egna kroppen: en jämförande studie
I dagens västerländska samhälle finns ett kroppsideal som påverkar unga kvinnors inställning och attityd till den egna kroppen. Kroppsidealet ställer krav på att kvinnan ska vara slank, solbränd och vältränad. Dessa ideal kan medföra att individen ej förmår att acceptera sin kropp. Syftet med denna enkätstudie var att jämföra unga kvinnors kroppsattityder beroende på utbildningsinriktning. Studien genomfördes med en enkät som innehöll Body Attitude Test (BAT) och Figure Rating Scale (FRS).
Inverkan av stora mängder halm som underlag i grisningsboxen på den nyfödda smågrisens temperaturreglering :
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of large amounts of straw
in the farrowing pen on thermal regulation of the newborn piglet in different
weight classes. 20 sows were given 15 kg of straw in the farrowing pen
2 days prior to until 7 days after parturition. A control group of 18 sows
had no straw in the pen. 6 litters from each treatment were observed.
Measurements of piglet body temperature were made at 0h, 2h, 4h, 8h and 24h
after parturition. At ?8h? the body temperature of the piglets in the Straw group
were significantly higher (P=0,0149) than the piglets in the Control group.
Institutions Matters - En teoriprövande studie om institutionell struktur och ekonomiskt välstånd inom transitionsländerna
This thesis analyzes and discusses the role of institutions concerning countries' abilities to create economic wealth.

Buprenorfin till get : grundläggande farmakokinetik och påverkan på beteende
In this study the opioid buprenorphine was given to 8 clinically healthy goats. The pharmacokinetics and behavioral effects were studied. Injections of buprenorphine, 0.02 mg/kg body weight was given both intramuscularly (i.m.) and intravenously (i.v.) with a cross over design. The results showed a short half-life of the drug in the plasma, 65.9 ± 17.4 min (mean ± SD), after i.v. injection.
Är själv bäste dräng
In part this paper is a contribution to the ongoing Swedish discussion about our public structures. The discussion has picked up speed in the last years thanks to a government backed committee trying to come up with a suggestion to make our public sector more efficient. A big part of the debate is about the independence and work of our municipalities, what they should do, what they shouldn?t do and when the state should step in and take over. I make a theoretical investigation into one of these issues, the one about job creation.
Vetlanda i nytt ljus - förslag till förändring av torg - stadskärnan :
This is a degree project that takes up history, present-day
situation and analyzes these, that in turn becomes basis for
cunning, both for shape and lighting, plus gives a eye-opener
through entire the work.
Vetlanda municipality acquires alter Stortorget that lies my
in downtown. The area is not so used and has a fairly dreary
appearance. Here are potential and a lot of possibilities for
development.
When working with a task as Vetlanda center, it is easy to take
water over your head, so it is important to limit yourself. History,
a description of today?s appearance and work area limit
to the design proposal has been given different weight for the
job.
Cassava as an additive in biomass fuel pellet production :
In this study, the effects of using fine milled cassava stems as an additive in biofuel pellet production was compared to the effects of refined starch addition. The bulk biomass fuel raw material, to which the additive was added, was a blend of spruce and pine sawdust. An experimental design in the factors cassava/starch content, moisture content and material temperature was used. Measured responses were pellet bulk density, pellet durability, amount of fines, pelletizer motor current, pellet temperature, die temperature and CV for pelletizer motor current (a measure of process stability). Each response was modeled by multiple linear regression (MLR).
Kön, kroppsbild och dysfunktionella tankar : en sambandsstudie
Body esteem is the affective aspect of body image, which is shaped by social experience. Compared with men, women have a more negative body image, which is more frequently correlated with depression and dysfunctional thoughts, especially in the case of eating disorders. The purpose of the present study was to examine gender differences in body esteem and its subcategories, and to find out whether there exists a stronger link between negative body esteem and higher levels of dysfunctional thoughts in women. The relationship between body esteem, dysfunctional thoughts and mental illness was examined. Participants were 73 college students doing social sciences and sports training educations.

Snusets påverkan på balans : skillnad i posturalt svaj hos dagligsnusare före och efter uppehåll från snusbruk
SyfteSnusandet har ökat de senaste åren, särskilt bland kvinnor och yngre personer och till flera samhällsgrupper. Rökning har under många år genomgått rigorös forskning och därigenom bevisats vara förenat med ohälsa. Däremot är forskning på snusanvändandets hälsoeffekter eftersatt. En fysiologisk effekt som föreslagits av långvarigt snusande är påverkan på balans (posturalt svaj). Uppsatsens huvudsyfte är att undersöka effekten på balans av ett långvarigt (sex veckor) uppehåll från snus i en grupp av dagligsnusare. MetodI studien genomförde dagligbrukare av snus (n=13) tester av posturalt svaj före och efter sex veckors uppehåll från snus.
Hjälpen till ett drogfritt liv! : En kvalitativ studie om återfall och återfallsprevention.
AbstractTitel: Hjälpen till ett drogfritt liv- En kvalitativ studie om återfall och återfallsprevention.Writers: Jonna Håkansson och Louise Hag.Keywords: Abuse, addiction, relapse, relapse prevention. Abuse is a major problem and leads to negative consequences for the individual, such as illness, criminality and death. It?s also a big problem in the society, because the most common crimes are drug-related and the consequences lead to high economic costs. In order to overcome an addiction, treatment is often required.
Inverkan av ensilagets partikelstorlek på beteende och beteendestörningar hos mjölkraskvigor :
Modern milk production have come a long way when it comes to accommodating the
nutritional and physiological needs of the animals, but unfortunately the behavioural and
psychological needs of cows and heifers are often left unfulfilled. A long time for eating
is beneficial for the digestion and also gives the cattle something to do and decreases the risks for developing abnormal behaviours. An important factor that influences eating- and ruminating time is the particle size of the roughage. The aim of the study was to find out if particle size influences the behaviour of dairy heifers, in particular with regard to eating behaviour and abnormal behaviours.
The study was conducted at Uddetorp farm high school in Skara. Forty-two heifers of the
breeds SR and SF were housed in 8 slatted floor pens.
