The purpose with this study was to examine organizations and governments work and approach in maintaining relationships between children and their incarcerated parent. Today there is little understanding of these children’s experiences and there is not much research about the organizations and governments working with these questions. This study is based on interviews with prison officers and staf
Syfte: Uppsatsens syfte är att ge förståelse om och djupare insikt i option framing-dynamiken och dess existens, genom att undersöka hur effekten av option framing påverkas av antalet presenterade tillbehör, könet på respondenten och tillbehörens betydelse. Metod: Studien baseras på en kvantitativ experimentundersökning med cyklar som studieobjekt och avser att genom hypotesprövning ge svar på p
I denna uppsats undersöks undertextning av matlagningsprogram. Undertextning är på många sätt en begränsad form av översättning, och uppsatsen undersöker hur begränsningarna påverkar innehållet i matlagningsprogram, samt om det går att utläsa några normer i undertextningen av dessa. Materialet består av transkriberat engelskt tal och svenska undertexter från tre olika brittiska matlagningsprogram
Då utvecklingen av digital kommunikation bland annat leder till mindre öga-mot-öga-kontakt (F2F), var studiens syfte att undersöka om olika nivåer av F2F-kontakt korrelerar med den interpersonella tilliten mellan chef och anställd. En enkätundersökning med 60 yrkesverksamma deltagare genomfördes, och resultaten visade inga signifikanta samband mellan F2F och tillit, något som i viss mån skiljer siSince less face-to-face contact (F2F) is one of the implications of digital communication development, this study was designed to examine if different levels of F2F-contact correlates with interpersonal trust between employees and their manager. A survey with 60 participants was conducted, and the results showed no significant relationship between F2F and trust, to some extent making it stand out
Syftet med den här studien har varit att förbättra LOGEs semidetaljerade katalysatormodel Cu-ZSM-5 på dem delarna där modellen missar viktiga effekter. Det är viktigt att ha en riktigt och CPU-effektiv kinetisk modell för katalysatorn i arbetet mot att minska förorenande NOx i avgaserna från en dieselmotor. Undersökningen av den kinetiska modellen utfördes genom transienta experiment som NO oxidaThe aim of this study has been to enhance LOGE's semi-detailed Cu-ZSM-5 SCR catalyst model in areas where it lacks to catch important effects. It is important to have an accurate and CPU efficient kinetic model for the catalysis in the work towards minimizing polluting NOx in the exhaust gas from diesel engines. Investigations were done on the kinetic model through a few transient experiment
As a social worker you often meet children that are exposed to harmful environments in one way or another. Children who grow up in these circumstances could easily be forgotten, there-fore it is vital that these children are brought to attention. In these situations it´s necessary to find which positiv measures would be benefitial for these children. The internet is an expan-sive resource due to t
A field study was conducted in Fisantekraal, one of 20 high-risk communities in Cape Town, home to both a formal part consisting of low-cost government housing and an informal settlement. People in Fisantekraal are exposed to several different types of hazards and have problems with reoccurring disasters, especially in the informal settlement. Face-to-face interviews with people living in the two
In this thesis the international trade input-output model has been used in a case study to evaluate how disturbances in the activity of the Port of Gothenburg propagate through Swedish economic sectors. The international trade input-output model can, given a perturbation from one or more sectors, estimate the ripple effects measured in terms of industry inoperability and economic losses. The model
This thesis sets out to examine which strategies and methods are used in the exchange of information and factors that may impede an effective (vertical and horizontal) aggregation of information regarding risks and vulnerabilities on a local and regional level. Solutions to mitigate those factors are suggested. The method consists of a qualitative survey; empirical data is gathered from 21 countie
This bachelor thesis examines the municipal cultural management of the city of Lund in Sweden and how it uses co-ordination as working method. By using governance as theory it is possible to both define the way the cultural organisation in question network with the local cultural participants, but also how this way of strategy affects the balance of power between the local participants and the mun
Individens hälsa och välmående är ett aktuellt ämne. Arbetslivet är en stor del av individens liv och också en av källorna där ohälsa kan uppstå men detta är i sampel med privatlivet. I skuggan av rapporter om ökad ohälsa, mer stress och hög arbetsbelastning för arbetaren är det därför relevant att titta på hur ohälsa kan förebyggas och vilka tillvägagångssätt som kan anammas på arbetsplatsen. Gra
This diploma thesis describes the experimental sessions carried out step by step towards the final aim of implementing the electrical characterization and luminescence detection on individual upright-standing nanowires in LED or solar cell nanowire arrays using a conductive Atomic Force Microscope (C-AFM) instrument. The whole lab work covers various characterization procedures of single nanowires
From the year of 2000 to 2010 the increase in expenditures for the Swedish households on furnishings, household equipment and routine maintenance of the house is 67%, for clothing and footwear the increase is 50%. Our total consumption from the same years has increased by 23%. I started this project by researching on the human sociology in relation to private consumption. Why do we spend so much
My Masters thesis is a study of phenomenon, feedback loop. Specially focusing on the behaviour changing possibilities, which have been found out to effective in a feedback loop. Feedback loop can be divided in four different stages. 1.Evidence 2.Relevance 3.Consequence 4. Action The problem I wanted to find a solution was the increasing lack of excersice and activity among children. According WH
Branchless banking, the use of alternative delivery channels such as mobile banking and agent banking, is becoming increasingly popular among commercial banks in Kenya and in other developing countries. It is believed to reach the low-income and rural individuals as well as making these individuals better off. This study is an attempt to examine whether the use of mobile banking and agent banking
