Abstract:
Detta arbete, som utgår ifrån observationen att många spel inom survival horror-genren använder sig av en realistisk grafisk stil på sina texturer, undersöker om det är möjligt att förmedla samma läskiga känsla genom användandet av en stiliserad, eller tecknad, grafisk stil. Tre 3D-modeller föreställande monster, modellerade med inspiration från survival horror-spel, texturerades på ett sätt som motsvarade en realistisk grafisk stil, samt ett som motsvarade en stiliserad grafisk stil. Dessa låg sedan som grund för en enkätundersökning där respondenterna fick välja vilken version av monstren som var läskigast.

Abstract:
I det här masterarbetet har jag musik för tre olika musikaliska sammanhang; elektronisk pop i samarbete med kurskollega, kortfilmsmusik i samarbete med filmregissör och musik till statistik i samarbete med SCB. De tre delprojekten rör sig inom olika musikaliska uttryck och har olika instrumentering. En frågeställning som genomsyrar tankegångarna i textens reflektioner är vilka likheter i fråga om uttryck och processer de tre olika verken har även om de har olika estetiska ramar och förutsättningar. Arbetet har genomförts i syfte att undersöka hur de olika inriktningarna påverkar och influerar mig som musikskapare. Går det att se hur flödet av influenser ser ut? Vidare tar jag upp olika föreställningar om att som enskild musikskapare arbeta inom olika inriktningar och medieuttryck. Metoden har utgjorts av kompositionsarbete, improvisation, musikproduktion och studioinspelningar. Resultatet av arbetet är tre olika musikverk varav två; kortfilmsmusik och musik till statistik, är en sorts beställningsverk med målet att spelas i den offentliga kulturen.<br>In this master dissertation, I have created music for three different musical contexts; electronic pop in collaboration with a program colleague from KMH, short film music in collaboration with film director and finally music to statistics in collaboration with Statistics Sweden (SCB. The three sub-projects move within different musical expressions and have different instrumentation. An issue that is central in the reflections of the text is what similarities in terms of expression and processes the three different works have, although they have different aesthetic frameworks. The work aims to find out how the different directions affect and influence me as a music creator. Can you see what the flow of influences looks like? Furthermore, I discuss different conceptions of working as an individual music creator in different directions and media expressions. The method has consisted of composition work, improvisation, music production and studio recordings. The result of the work is three different pieces of music, two of which; short-film music and music for statistics, is a kind of commissioned work with the goal of being played in the public culture.

Abstract:
Studien undersöker användningen av Goyas etsning När förnuftet sover kommer monstren och Fuselis oljemålning Nattmaran som förekommer i slasherfilmen Terror på Elm Street (2010). Konstverken är placerade i en scen där konstverken bland annat får en självrefererande roll eftersom det som sker i konstverken även sker i filmen. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad konstverken fyller för funktion i filmen och att undersöka om det finns stilistiska och tematiska likheter mellan konstverken och filmen trots att det skiljer ungefär 200 år mellan dem. De båda konstverken analyseras semiotiskt och filmen analyseras främst utifrån studiens teoretiska perspektiv: intermedialitet, transmediering och intertextualitet.   Resultatet visar att slasherfilmer och skräckfilmer är väldigt flitiga med användandet av intertextuella referenser och självrefererande uttryck men att det är svårt att veta exakt vad konstverken har för betydelse. Tidigare forskning visar att tidig skräckfilm inspirerades av gotiska romaner och romantiska konstverk vilka transmedierades till filmmediet när det var tekniskt möjligt. Mellan konstverken och filmen går det att hitta flera stilmässiga och tematiska likheter som är typiska för det som började framhävas under romantiken. Terror på Elm Street (2010) bär på flera postmoderna drag, bland annat eftersom filmen kombinerar uttryck från det förflutna och berör gränsen för vad som ses som fin- respektive populärkultur.<br>This study examines Goya’s etching The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters and Fuseli’s The Nightmare and how they are used in the slasher movie A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010). The purpose of this study is to explore the artworks and their role within the movie and examine if it is possible to distinguish stylistic and thematic similarities between the works despite being separated by approximately 200 years. The artworks are analyzed according to a semiotic method, while the movie is analyzed mainly using the study’s theoretical aspects: intermediality, transmediality and intertextuality. The result shows that intertextual references and self-referential expressions are frequently used in slasher movies. However, the specific role which these artworks play in the movie is often hard to decipher. There are several similarities between the artworks and the movie and previous studies shows that early horror movies were influenced by gothic novels and romantic paintings which were transmediated to fit the film medium. The art works used in A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) have the same motifs as part of the film’s story and are also part of a postmodern trend of mixing between so called high culture and popular culture.

En kvalitativ studie har genomförts där forskningsfrågan behandlar hur medarbetare anser att deras ledare bör kommunicera. Syftet var att ta reda på om ledarens kommunikationsstil påverkar medarbetarens inställning och mottaglighet för att ta till sig information positivt eller negativt. Femton personer som arbetar inom skilda verksamheter har intervjuats för att få en bild av vad som utmärker en ledare med goda kommunikationsegenskaper. Teorin som har använts som utgångspunkt i studien är Merril och Reids (1999) teori om sociala stilar.Resultatet visade att ledaren bör kommunicera mera. Ledaren bör även vara skicklig på att variera sin stil mellan drivande och vänlig. Dessutom ska denne ha förmågan att ta tag i uppkomna problem och lösa dessa omgående. Den ideala ledaren visar engagemang, inte bara för sina medarbetare utan även för uppgifterna och verksamheten i sin helhet. Vidare för denne dialog med sina medarbetare och är tydlig i sin kommunikation. Ledaren bör ha ett kontrollerat men ej avståndstagande kroppsspråk, kunna variera och anpassa sitt tonläge och samtalstempo efter rådande situation.<br>Program: Organisations- och personalutvecklare i samhället

Abstract:
Detta kandidatarbetet handlar om visuella stilar och utseende i spelmiljö och hur detta kan påverka narrativet i ett spel. För att undersöka vår frågeställning har vi tittat på hur narrativ förmedlas i text, film och reklam, och hur samma metoder kan tillämpas i för att berätta med hjälp av spelmiljö. Vi har sedan testat dessa tillvägagångssätt genom att skapa ett digitalt fantasyspel som är fokuserat på just narrativ. Metoder som vi har använt oss av är Kanban för dess struktur i en produktionsmiljö, Matter Matters och Agentiell Realism för den vikten som de lägger på materialen och objekten som finns spelet och Moodboard för att till en början visualisera en projektide i sin helhet och senare att ta inspiration från. Vår designprocess var ett långt prövande på vår idé och konceptet på hur spelet skulle se ut. Vi utförde vår idè tillsammans med två andra grupper med egna undersökningar och idèer och sammanställde projektet  på ett sätt som var tillfredsställande för oss alla. I diskussionsdelen tar vi upp frågeställningens utveckling och projektets potentiella framtid.<br>This Bachelor thesis is about visual styles and the appearance of the game environment and how this can affect the narrative of a game. To investigate our issue, we have examined how narrative is communicated in text, film and advertising, and how the same methods can be applied in order to tell using game environment. We then tested these approaches by creating a digital fantasy game focused on narrative. Methods that we have used are Kanban for its structure in a production environment, Matter Matters and Agent Realism for the importance they attach to the materials and objects within the game and Moodboard to initially visualize a project in its entirety and later to inspire the projekt further. Our design process was a trial of our idea and our concept of how the game should look. We conducted our idea together with two other groups with their own investigations and ideas and compiled the project in a way that was satisfactory to all of us. In the discussion section we discuss the development of the research question and the potential future of the project.

Abstract:
Detta arbete gick ut på att undersöka ifall två spelmekaniskt identiska spelprototyper med två olika grafiska stilar kunde påverka en spelares uppfattning av spelupplevelsen. Syftet var inte att undersöka hur det påverkar utan om det påverkar. Arbetet utgick ifrån att undersöka grafiska stilar, skapa två spelprototyper samt undersöka och bryta ner spelupplevelsen med hjälp av Swinks bok om Game Feel. Åtta respondenter deltog i speltest och intervjuer vilket ledde till data som kunde konstatera att en grafisk presentation, en grafisk stil, påverkar en spelares upplevelser av ett spel. Datan kan inte påvisa hur, däremot att det sker något, trots mekaniskt identiska spel. För framtida forskning vore det intressant att använda ett större och mer komplext spel för att ge ett längre och mer naturligt speltest för respondenterna samt för att likna de spel som finns tillgängliga i handeln idag.

Esta tese teve como objetivo avaliar os dados sociodemogr?ficos e as caracter?sticas de personalidade das mulheres maltratadas por seus parceiros ?ntimos; encontra-se organizada em tr?s se??es: uma te?rica e duas emp?ricas. A primeira se??o, te?rica, trata de uma revis?o sistem?tica da literatura, com o objetivo de avaliar sistematicamente a produ??o bibliogr?fica indexada nas bases de dados MedLine, PsyicINFO, Lilacs e Proquest, publicadas de 2000 a 2010, referentes ao cruzamento dos descritores viol?ncia dom?stica (domestic violence) e mulher (women); viol?ncia dom?stica (domestic violence) e mulher maltratada (battered women); e mulher maltratada (battered women) e personalidade (personality). Foram encontradas apenas sete publica??es que tratavam efetivamente de algum aspecto da personalidade das mulheres v?timas de viol?ncia dom?stica, sendo que nenhum dos estudos foi realizado no Brasil. Os dois estudos emp?ricos que sustentam esta tese foram realizados a partir da administra??o de uma Ficha de Dados Sociodemogr?ficos e pelo M?todo de Rorschach. A classifica??o de todos os protocolos do M?todo de Rorschach foi realizada pela pesquisadora segundo os crit?rios do Sistema Compreensivo. Ainda, 33 casos (20% dos protocolos) foram tamb?m classificados por uma avaliadora (ju?za) externa. As concord?ncias encontradas, nas categorias das vari?veis do M?todo de Rorschach, atrav?s do Coeficiente Kappa foram altamente satisfat?rias. No primeiro estudo emp?rico (Se??o II) foram tamb?m analisados os dados da Escala T?tica de Conflito (ETC) e, para o segundo estudo emp?rico (Se??o III) o Invent?rio de Depress?o de Beck BDI-II e a Escala de Desesperan?a de Beck - BHS. A amostra foi composta por 161 mulheres maiores de 18 anos que sofreram viol?ncia dom?stica perpetrada pelo parceiro ?ntimo, usu?rias da Rede de Apoio a Mulheres V?timas de Viol?ncia Dom?stica (RAMVVD) - Delegacia da Mulher, Casa de Apoio e Centros de Refer?ncia da Mulher -, no per?odo de novembro de 2008 a julho de 2010. As mulheres que compuseram a amostra foram convidadas a participar da pesquisa nos locais que comp?em a RAMVVD; ap?s o aceite, assinaram um termo de consentimento livre e esclarecido e responderam aos instrumentos individualmente em um encontro. Na segunda se??o s?o apresentados os resultados das vari?veis selecionadas do M?todo de Rorschach para avaliar as caracter?sticas da personalidade (?rea da afetividade, autopercep??o, rela??es interpessoais e controle e toler?ncia ao estresse) das mulheres da amostra. Conclui-se que algumas caracter?sticas de personalidade s?o peculiares ?s mulheres pesquisadas, a saber: dificuldades para manifestar os seus sentimentos; autocr?tica prec?ria; d?fictis nos seus relacionamentos e, ainda, caracter?sticas de desamparo, sentimentos de culpa e uma sobrecarga de estresse situacional. Na terceira, tamb?m emp?rica, s?o apresentados e discutidos os dados sobre os n?veis de intensidade de depress?o e de desesperan?a, bem como a preval?ncia de potencial suicida entre as mulheres da amostra. Os resultados mostram que essas mulheres, apresentam um ?ndice importante de desesperan?a associado a n?veis consider?veis de depress?o, o que as leva a correrem o risco de apresentar comportamentos suicidas.

Abstract:
This thesis is a novella in fragments set in contemporary Lesotho. It tells the story of a Mosotho woman in her 30s who has spent a long time living out of the country. She returns to search for a former lover who she hasn’t seen for 15 years. The nonlinear narrative follows her journey, exploring a range of themes, including sexuality, gender and class relations, memory and time, relationship to place, non-conformity and defiance in the face of societal pressure and conformism. The style of writing is inspired by a diverse range of writers, including Sonallah Ibrahim for his understated, sparse and minimalist prose, Tina May Hall for her ability to tell a story in fragmented vignettes, Noy Holland for her understanding of time as synchronous and non-linear, and Ayi Kwei Armah for his skill in evoking the feelings, textures and specificities of a place.

In this essay I have described ecocriticism as a theory with several different subfields that are inspired by a cross-disciplinary approach, such as green culture studies, ecofeminism, and postcolonial ecocriticism. After a short summary of the background of ecocritical studies I analyze the various subfields, take a closer look at their contents and present various examples of ecocritical thinking. A presentation of the commonly used concepts within the discipline and some reflections on these is followed by my final discussion, where I state that even though ecocriticism is a relatively new theory and the concept doesn’t have a clear definition as yet, it is in my view a useful tool for analysis and can with time make valuable contributions to literary studies, not least by introducing a number of new perspectives.

Abstract:
Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The use of solar distillation as a means of desalination to provide potable water to communities in remote and arid regions has often been discarded on economic grounds mainly because of the inherent low efficiency of relatively expensive solar distillation units (solar stills). Closer analysis of this constraint showed that by following a mainly Physical Chemistry approach (rather than the traditional engineering one), the technology could be made more economically attractive through (1) lowering the construction cost of the solar still and / or (2) increasing its operational life and / or (3) increasing its efficiency. The study into different solar still designs showed that, despite its limitations, the basin solar still is preferred due to its simplicity, ease of operation and low maintenance. Given the solar distillation process as formulated in this study, substitute durable components could be identified and optimised for this design. A basin solar still that costs about 80% less than a reference unit without an apparent drop in performance was consequently developed and successfully tested up to full plant scale. An in-house experimental facility that simulates solar still behaviour under controlled environmental conditions was developed to simulate conditions of lower radiation intensity and productivity, which enabled research into performance enhancement and microbiological water quality. It was found that (a) absorption of the radiation by the water plays an important part in productivity and that a productivity decrease of up to 33% can be expected as the black interior lining becomes contaminated, (b) the simulated winter productivity of the basin still was about 25% of the summer value due to the lesser amount of solar radiation hours, the lower angles of radiation incidence onto the cover and the decrease in water area receiving direct radiation, (c) an annual productivity increase of about 10% can be obtained when a particular reflector configuration is fixed behind the basin, and (d) the microbiological pasteurisation temperature is less than the distillation onset temperature. This study played an important role in making solar still technology affordable for use by poor, rural communities, as was demonstrated by the successful use of the research product (basin solar still) in a pilot drinking water plant at a typical target community. This was made possible through the use of evaluation models developed as part of this research, which addressed relevant construction and performance factors influencing the economic viability of the specific solar still. The following outcomes of this study can be regarded as new contributions to the field of solar distillation technology, namely (a) a test matrix that can be used to screen solar still construction materials at component level, (b) an evaluation model that can be used to determine the economic viability of solar stills at a given location, (c) a laboratory testing facility to study solar still behaviour under controlled conditions and (d) a solar still design that has been optimised and tested for local field application.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die gebruik van son-energie om brakwater deur middel van distillasie te ontsout en sodoende drinkwater aan afgeleë gemeenskappe te verskaf, is herhaaldelik in die verlede as ekonomies nie-lewensvatbaar aangetoon. Dit is hoofsaaklik toeskryfbaar aan die inherente lae effektiwiteit van sodanige stelsels, asook die hoë kapitaalkoste daaraan verbonde. Die hoofsaaklike faktore wat die tegnologie bekostigbaar kan maak, is egter hieruit afgelei en volgens 'n Fisiese Chemie benadering geoptimeer, naamlik (1) vermindering van die konstruksiekoste van die sondistilleerder-eenhede, en / of (2) verlenging van die operasionele leeftyd daarvan, en / of (3) verhoging van effektiwiteit van die stelsel. Die literatuurstudie het aangetoon dat die pan-tipe sondistilleerder-eenheid verkieslik as navorsingsbasis is omdat dit eenvoudig en maklik bedryf- en onderhoudbaar is. Vanuit die geformuleerde beskrywing van die sondistillasie-proses kon plaasvervangende komponente vir die sondistilleerder-eenheid geïdentifiseer en getoets word, wat daartoe gelei het dat 'n eenheid met dieselfde funksioneringseienskappe vir sowat 80% goedkoper ontwikkel kon word. 'n Laboratoriumopstelling waarmee lae bestralingskondisies gesimuleer kan word, is ontwikkel om navorsing op produktiwiteitsverbetering en mikrobiologiese produkwaterkwaliteit te doen. Dit is aangetoon dat (a) absorpsie van die inkomende bestraling deur die water belangrik is en dat 'n sondistilleerder-eenheid tot 33% minder produktief kan wees indien die swart voering binne die eenheid besoedel sou word, (b) winterproduktiwiteit daal tot 25% van somerproduktiwiteit as gevolg van die verminderde sonlig-ure, die laer invalshoek van die bestraling op die glasdeksel, en die gepaardgaande verkleining van die blootgestelde water-oppervlakte, (c) 'n gemiddelde produktiwiteitsverhoging van 10% deur weerkaatsers agter die sondistilleerder-eenheid teweeggebring kan word, en (d) die distillasie-temperatuur die water-ontsmettingstemperatuur oorskry. Hierdie navorsmg het 'n belangrike rol gespeelom sondistilleerder-tegnologie bekostigbaar vir behoeftge gemeenskappe in landelike gebiede te maak. Dit is gedemonstreer deur die suksesvolle toepassing van die navorsingsproduk (sondistilleerder-eenheid) in 'n drinkwatervoorsieningsprojek by 'n tipiese teikengemeenskap. Dit is vermag deur die gebruikmaking van evaluasie-modelle wat gedurende hierdie studie ontwikkel is, en wat die toepaslike konstruksie- en funksioneringsfaktore wat die ekonomiese lewensvatbaarheid van die eenheid beïnvloed, aanspreek. Die volgende navorsingsprodukte kan beskou word as nuut in die veld van sondistillasie-tegnologie, naamlik (a) 'n toetsmatriks wat gebruik kan word om komponente vir sondistilleeerders te evalueer, (b) 'n ekonomiese evalueringsmodel wat gebruik kan word om die bekostigbaarheid van sondistilleerders in 'n bepaalde gebied te bepaal, (c) 'n laboratorium-toetsfasiliteit om die werking van sondistilleerders onder beheerde kondisies te ondersoek en (d) 'n sondistilleerdereenheid wat doelgeskik vir plaaslike omstandighede ontwikkel en getoets is.

Kvalitativa intervjuer och observationer har gjorts med eleverna på skogsutflykter med skolan och fritids för att samla data om deras förhållande till skogen och djur i skogen. Studien är en fenomenologisk studie som lutar sig mot begreppet affordance, en term inom informationsdesign som beskriver relationen mellan ett fysiskt objekt och en person och de möjliga interaktionerna mellan en person och miljön omkring. Studien tar upp teorier om  människors relation till skogen och djurs relation till skogen för att visa ett perspektiv på skogen som ett hem. Arbetet har resulterat i ett gestaltningsförslag i form av ett undervisningskoncept som ska kunna användas av lärare till årskurs 1-4 att använda till sina klasser i undervisningen, det är lekfullt och lärorikt för eleverna och kommer ändra deras sätt att se på sin närliggande skog och att tänka innan de agerar nästa gång.<br>This study was made with the elementary school Åkerskolan in Strängnäs county and with some support from the Museum of Technology, Tekniska Museet, in Stockholm county. The students that participated in the case were in first to fourth grade. Qualitative interviews and observations have been done with the students in a forest during school trips. This was to collect data about their relation to the forests and animals in the forest. The study is a phenomenological study that focuses on affordance, which is a concept within information design that describes the relation between a physical object and a person and the possible interactions between a person and its environment. The study also brings up theories about the human relation and distance to the forest and animals' relation to the forest, to give a perspective of the forest as a home. The work has resulted in a design as a concept for teachers in first to fourth grade to do with their students in school. It could be both playful and educational for the students and it will change their way to look at their nearby forests and they will think before they act next time.

Abstract:
Den ökade globaliseringen har resulterat i att många organisationer stiger in på denkonkurrenskraftiga internationella marknaden. Detta har influerat organisationer att spridaderas budskap globalt – oftast genom marknadsföring. Tv-reklam är en mediekanal som anseseffektiv när man tillämpar humor som en kommunikationsstrategi då den enligt tidigareforskning genererar högt medvetande hos konsumenterna. Dock, finns det ett behov av attbelysa de kulturella skillnaderna när reklamen riktas internationellt eftersom humor uppfattasolika beroende på kultur, vilken kan generera negativa effekter. Eftersom att de kulturellaskillnaderna i humoristisk reklam tenderar att bli bortsedda så fokuserar denna kvantitativestudie på att belysa dessa skillnader med hjälp av Hofstedes kulturdimensionsteori. Dennakvantitativa studie fokuserar därför på att belysa karaktärerna av de kulturella skillnaderna ihumoristisk reklam, genom att använda Hofstedes kulturdimensionsteori, eftersom de tenderaratt bli översedda. Länderna Sverige och Kina jämfördes genom att betona kulturen motreaktionerna gentemot de olika humorstilarna i tv-reklam kopplat till uppfattade känslor. Föratt kunna identifiera humortyperna, användes Rod Martins fyra humorstilar affiliative humor,self-enhancing humor, aggressive humor och self-defeating humor.Syftet med studien var att upplysa hur viktiga aspekterna av de kulturella skillnaderna är ihumoristisk reklam med betoning på kultur och hur känslor mottas i svensk och kinesiskkultur. Detta för att se hur humor kan tillämpas effektivt i reklam över internationella gränser.Enkäten utfördes på svenska och kinesiska universitetsstudenter vilket genererade i detinsamlade empiriska materialet. Resultatet visade att affiliative humor och aggressive humorapplicerad i reklamfilm tas emot likadant känslomässigt i både kinesisk och svensk kultur ochpåverkar även köpintentionerna på samma sätt. Medan, self-defeating humor och selfenhancinghumor tas känslomässigt emot likadant i båda kulturera, men de kinesiskakonsumenterna är mer villiga att köpa produkten.<br>The growth of globalization has resulted in more organizations entering the competitiveinternational market which has influenced organizations to disseminate their message globally- commonly through the use of advertising. Television commercial is a media channelconsidered to be highly effective if applied with humor as a communication strategy. Theeffectiveness of this strategy generates in high awareness according to previous studies.However, there is a need of highlighting the cross-cultural distinctions when promoting acrossinternational boarders as humor is perceived differently depending on culture, which cannegatively affect the results. As the cultural characteristics in this matter tend to beoverlooked, this quantitative research is focusing on highlighting the cross-culturalcharacteristics in humorous advertising, through the use of Hofstede’s framework of nationalculture. The countries Sweden and China were compared with emphasize on cultureassociated to the reaction toward different humor styles in television commercials linked toperceived emotions. For identifying the humor types, Rod Martin’s four humor stylesaffiliative humor, self-enhancing humor, aggressive humor, and self-defeating humor, wereused.The purpose of this research was to disseminate the importance of cross-cultural aspects inhumor advertising with emphasize on culture and how emotions are perceived in Swedish andChinese culture. The importance relied within how to effectively apply humor in commercialsover cross-cultural boundaries. The questionnaires were performed by Swedish and Chineseuniversity students that generated in the collection of the empirical chapter. The researchfindings indicated that affiliative humor and aggressive humor used in commercial is equallyperceived emotionally in both Chinese and Swedish culture and also affects the purchaseintention similarly. Whereas self-defeating humor and self-enhancing humor are emotionallyequally perceived in both cultures, but the Chinese consumers are more willing to purchasethe product.

Abstract:
Still House is a poetry manuscript that explores the relationship between traditional gender roles and traditional poetic forms. The poems in this collections seek to revise the role of the homemaker and interrogate whether it is okay to take comfort and pleasure in tasks that are often labeled as feminine (i.e. cooking, baking, decorating, organizing, shopping, choosing outfits) while rejecting other parts of the homemaker archetype, such as subservience to and dependence upon men. Limited gender roles, patriarchy, sexist comments, capitalism, toxic masculinity, the cis-hetero-white-male gaze, trauma, physical pain, illness—these all can make it feel like we are not fully in control and ownership of our bodies, like something is encroaching. The poems in Still House are invested in using the poetics of embodiment (a poetics centered around telling stories about the body through immersive sensory details) to reclaim the body from trauma, patriarchy, and chronic pain and illness.

Abstract:
Denne oppgaven er en teoretisk drøfting av hvem det stille barnet er, og hvordan stille atferd kan påvirke barn sosialt og faglig. Ved å drøfte ulike begreper og definisjoner knyttet til stille atferd har jeg funnet at stille barn kan defineres på ulike måter. Funnene tyder likevel på at noen kjennetegn går igjen, og viser at det er en del fellestrekk mellom de ulike begrepene og definisjonene. Hvem som omtaler den stille atferden, og hvilke forklaringsmodeller de legger til grunn, har også vist seg å være avgjørende for hvilke begreper og definisjoner som benyttes for å omtale stille atferd. Mot slutten av oppgaven rettes oppmerksomheten mot mulige sosiale og faglige konsekvenser, knyttet til stille atferd, og jeg viser at atferden kan få ulike konsekvenser. Noen konsekvenser er knyttet til psykiske forhold, mens andre konsekvenser kan vise seg i samhandling med andre, eller som vansker knyttet til å prestere opp mot forventninger.

Abstract:
Trots den reglerade inramningen har det vid upprepade tillfällen visat sig att den redovisningsinformation som granskas av revisorer inte alltid är att lita på. Kritiken mot ansvariga revisorer har varit hård, inte minst till följd av att de som försetts med felaktiga beslutsunderlag har lidit ekonomisk skada. Utgångspunkten för den här studien är hur svenska revisorer ser på granskningen och bedömningen av börsnoterade företags redovisningsinformation och på uttalanden om denna information. För att beskriva och analysera revisorernas uppfattningar om sin uppgift och möjligheterna att delvis förändra denna, utvecklades en modell om informationsflöden och kvalitetssäkring. Enligt modellen kvalitetssäkrar revisorerna en sorts information innan den distribueras till de redovisningsberättigade intressenterna, medan en annan sorts information går direkt från de redovisningsskyldiga företagen till intressenterna. Studien består av fyra sammanlänkade delar för insamling av data: pilotstudie, huvudstudie, uppföljande intervjuer (retester) och expertutfrågningar. I huvudstudien intervjuades 82 revisorer med en etablerad metod för att avbilda individers tankemönster (the repertory grid technique) samt kompletterande öppna frågor. Respondenterna fick jämföra 14 potentiella granskningsobjekt med varandra och värdera dem på sjugradiga skalor utifrån 12 begrepp, t.ex. "lätt - svårt att granska". För att kunna kartlägga såväl generella mönster som eventuella skillnader i uppfattningar mellan olika grupper valdes olika revisorer med hänsyn till erfarenhet, formell behörighet, kön, revisionsbyrå och ort. Revisorernas svar analyserades med hjälp av statistiska metoder och tolkningar av de data som samlades in i studiens olika delar. Skillnaderna mellan olika grupper av revisorer visade sig vara små, medan den generella bilden framträdde relativt tydligt. Revisorerna uppvisar en måttlig homogenitet och komplexitet i uppfattningar. De inriktar sig främst på att revidera fragmentariska, hårda och historiska granskningsobjekt, vilket de behärskar förhållandevis väl. Genom att följa riktlinjer och i relativt stor utsträckning fokusera sig själva, kan de legitimera sina handlingar och känna trygghet i ett utsatt arbete. Av revisorernas självfokusering följer att de inte i första hand utgår från intressenternas behov. Inriktningen på att hitta utelämnad eller felaktig information ges inte heller högsta prioritet. Deras konservativa hållning medför att de inte gärna vill ta sig an utvidgade granskningsuppgifter och göra utökade uttalanden. Trots att revisorerna över lag uppfattar att rikhaltig, mjuk och framtidsorienterad information är viktig för intressenterna, tyder det mesta på att denna även i framtiden i stor utsträckning får gå från redovisningsskyldiga företag till redovisningsberättigade intressenter utan att kvalitetssäkras.<br><p>Godkänd; 2004; 20070127 (ysko)</p>

Abstract:
Die in den drei Manuskripten vorgestellten Arbeiten zielen auf die Beantwortung der Frage, warum in Organisationen Fehlentwicklungen nicht angesprochen werden. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit lassen sich folgendermaßen zusammenfassen: 1) Ein funktionaler Ansatz wurde vorgestellt, mit dessen Hilfe die verfügbaren Erklärungsansätze zu Organizational Silence (als Stille in Organisationen konzipiert) über mehrere Ebenen (Mitarbeiter-, Gruppen- und Organisationsebene) integriert werden können. Ich habe mit der Ausarbeitung der Mitarbeiterebene begonnen. Dabei unterschied ich vier Formen von Mitarbeiterschweigen (angstbasiertes, resignatives, prosoziales und opportunistisches Schweigen) und entwickelt eine Skala, mit der erstmals verschiedene Formen von Mitarbeiterschweigen empirisch getrennt voneinander untersucht werden können. Die Skala wurde eingesetzt, um für die vier Formen Vorbedingungen, Begleiterscheinungen und Folgen herauszuarbeiten. Die Verfügbarkeit dieser kurzen Skala mit guten psychometrischen Werten wird eine genauere Ausarbeitung der Konzepte ermöglichen. 2) Bestehende Zugänge zum Authentizitätskonzept wurden integriert und ein Kernkonzept von Authentizität vorgestellt. Dieses Konzept umfasst eine auf das Selbst gerichtete Dimension (Authentic Self-Awareness) und eine auf den Ausdruck des Selbst gerichtete Dimension (Authentic Self-Expression). Für die Erfassung dieses Kernkonstrukts wurde eine Skala entwickelt und getestet. Durch die sparsame Zwei-Faktorenstruktur und die Kurzskala ist es möglich, Authentizität auch im angewandten Kontext relativ problemlos zu untersuchen. Dadurch lassen sich potentiell die erwarteten positiven Zusammenhänge empirisch bestätigen und widersprüchliche Annahmen mit Hilfe empirischen Datenmaterials aufklären. 3) Authentizität wurde als Prädiktor für das Verschweigen (Employee Silence) und für das Ansprechen von Fehlentwicklungen in Organisationen (Employee Voice) eingeführt. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass Authentizität in der Vorhersage von Silence und Voice inkrementelle Validität über besehende Prädiktoren wie z.B. Team Psychological Safety, Organisationale Identifikation, Arbeitszufriedenheit und Work Engagement aufweist.

Boas condi??es ac?sticas em salas de aula tornam o processo de aprendizagem mais f?cil e menos estressante para professores e alunos. Os recursos investidos em melhoria, a fim de promover conforto ac?stico, ainda s?o vistos apenas como despesas e n?o como investimento em educa??o. A quest?o de pesquisa levantada ?: as salas de aula de institui??es de federais de ensino superior em Natal/RN possuem ac?stica arquitet?nica adequada? O principal objetivo deste estudo ? compatibilizar a qualidade ac?stica de salas de aulas te?ricas com diferentes caracter?sticas arquitet?nicas em institui??es federais de ensino superior em Natal/RN, a fim de propor diretrizes b?sicas para a melhoria da qualidade ac?stica.

When the spoken message is not clearly heard by the students, the understanding of the speech is affected and, consequently, the learning process is impaired. Good acoustic conditions in classrooms make the learning process easier and less stressful for teachers and students. The resources invested in improvement, in order to promote acoustic comfort, are still seen only as expenses and not as investment in education. The research question raised is: do the classrooms of federal higher education institutions in Natal/RN have adequate architectural acoustics? The main objective of this study is to reconcile the acoustic quality of theoretical classrooms with different architectural characteristics in federal institutions of higher education in Natal/RN, in order to propose basic guidelines for the improvement of acoustic quality. Acoustic parameters were found for this type of research, such as Reverberation Time (T20), Initial Decision Time (EDT) and Speech Transmission Index (ITS), as well as other important controls for speech intelligibility analysis. The methodological procedures consist of the bibliographic research on the subject, as well as the application of field research, in order to ascertain a true acoustic quality of the classrooms studied and to make possible solutions proposals. Acoustic measurements were performed in the classrooms of the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do Norte and the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, where low acoustic quality was found in all classroom standards. The results found in the acoustic measurements were compared according to the criteria: measurement techniques, reverberation time in architecturally identical rooms and reverberation time in rooms with height variation. From the results of the measurements, we proposed simulations to improve the acoustic quality of the rooms, finding that 50% of area of absorbent material in the ceiling significantly improves the acoustic conditioning of the room for speech, with better results with 100% of the area of liner material in absorbent and more homogeneous distribution of parameters throughout the room when absorbent material is added to 25% of the posterior wall area. According to the results, design guidelines were proposed for classrooms analyzed, such as the application of absorbent ceiling and the proportion of form in which there is better distribution of acoustic parameters.

It tried to identify and analyze the abilities and competences in Literacy in the Information Treatment and Uncertainty. The research involved 21 groups, being nine of one city border school and 12 of the city central area. The researched universe involved 444 pupils. The data were collected through a questionnaire formed by informative questions to know general identification with the purpose to find Literacy. The research included a big bibliographic review and diferent theoretic perspectives. It was based, yet, in legal documents, mainly National Curriculum Parameters (PCN). The used methodology was that of the combined methods, based in Creswell (2010). The quantitative analysis was made in a descriptive way, showing results by charts and tables. The qualitative analysis employed the methodology of Textual Discourse (MORAES; GALIAZZI, 2011). The results indicate that the high school incoming and outgoing pupils showed limited abilities in charts and tables data writing, reading, calculation and interpretation. Thus, the pupils development was not satisfactory, considering Literacia as abilities and competences employment. Third degree pupils had better results than that of the first ones, but with similar difficulties in Treatment Information and Uncertainty. The shown abilities and competences in each degree, associated to those linked to this knowledge phase show the loss of learning in this area on the high school conclusion.<br>O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar a Literacia Estat?stica e Probabil?stica de alunos ingressantes e concluintes do Ensino M?dio de duas escolas p?blicas de uma cidade da regi?o metropolitana de Porto Alegre, RS.

Abstract:
Captive Still Life is the fictional story of Marcus Penikett, a seventeen year old celebrity trapped in a scary, suburbanite housing community called Morningside. Marcus Penikett will never escape the childhood incident at the Zoo that made him and the Penikett family famous —the infamous TIME cover of his bleeding face hangs outside of his room, forever documenting and haunting Marcus with the past. Now, Marcus is determined to leave the housing community of Morningside, Georgia to get away from his control freak mother Elise, his absent professor father Otto and a menagerie of other Morningside residents. This plan is complicated by his love for fellow neighbor Olivia, sexual relationship with the maid Sue and Morningside's uncanny 'power' to thwart Marcus' goals.

It has a rich and varied flora resulting from the diversity of its geological origin, topography and environmental conditions. In the municipality of Rio de Janeiro there are few areas with restinga vegetation remnants and correspond to 1.6% of the total number of vegetation of the city. The Municipal Natural Park Grumari (PNMG), where was developed this study, is considered one of the smallest fragments of restinga vegetation of the State of Rio de Janeiro. Located in the west area of the city of Rio de Janeiro, is a protected area administered by the Department of Environment of the Municipality of Rio de Janeiro. This protected area comprises restinga vegetation and analogously to the restingas of the State of Rio de Janeiro has suffered high anthropogenic pressure mainly associated with local tourism, removal of species, fire, high traffic and banana plantation expansion. In the face of human pressure history occurred in PNMG area, it was carried out phytosociological study and as well as researched the relationship of the vegetation of an impacted stretch of restinga Mata with soil factors associated with soil fertility. The objective was to know the tree species in this impacted area. Ten rectangular plots with size of 10 m x 20 m were delimited in the study area and the trees with diameter at breast height greater than or equal to 5 cm were part of the sample. Samples of soil at a depth of 5 cm, were collected in order to proceed to carry out the chemical analysis. Species identification was performed by the RBR Herbarium of the Department of Botany, Institute of Biology of UFRRJ. Canonical correspondence analysis was performed (ACC), via software PC-ORD version 5.0, in order to assess whether the soil chemical factors influence the distribution of tree species in the sampling site. A total of 277 individuals were sampled, with 33 species, 25 genera and 16 families. The species Cupania emarginata (Camboat?), Sapindaceae family, with approximately 50% of the sampled individuals was identified as the dominant species. Cupania emarginata, Tapirira guianensis, Byrsonima sericea, Myrsine guianensis, Eugenia punicifolia, Erythroxylum ovalifolium and Erythroxylum passerinum showed the highest importance value. The Fabaceae family, with 7 species, was the richest. The ACC information indicates that the axes 1 and 2 together accounted for only 14.5% of the variation in the data, indicating a low correlation between soil chemical parameters and the distribution of trees at the sampling site. Due to the large number of species with little representation and as well as the knowledge that some of them are with the level of threat vulnerable or endangered, should be increased efforts to protect this restinga vegetation remaining in the city of Rio de Janeiro.<br>A vegeta??o de restinga, localizada nas plan?cies costeiras do litoral brasileiro, ? considerada um conjunto de comunidades vegetais dispostas em mosaico que est?o sobrepostas em solo de natureza arenosa. Possui uma flora rica e variada resultante da diversidade da sua origem geol?gica, topografia e condi??es ambientais. No munic?pio do Rio de Janeiro h? poucas ?reas com vegeta??o de restinga remanescente e correspondem a 1,6% do total de vegeta??o da cidade. O Parque Natural Municipal de Grumari (PNMG), onde foi desenvolvido este estudo, ? considerado um dos menores fragmentos de restinga do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Localizado na zona oeste da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, ? uma unidade de conserva??o administrada pela Secretaria de Meio Ambiente da Prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro. Compreende vegeta??o de restinga e de forma an?loga ?s restingas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro tem sofrido alta press?o antr?pica, principalmente, associada ao turismo local, a retirada de esp?cies, a inc?ndios, ao pisoteio e a expans?o da planta??o de banana. Em face do hist?rico de press?o antr?pica ocorrida na ?rea do PNMG, foi realizado um estudo fitossociol?gico e bem como pesquisou-se a rela??o da vegeta??o de um trecho impactado da Mata de Restinga com os fatores ed?ficos associados ? composi??o qu?mica do solo. Objetivou-se conhecer as esp?cies arb?reas presentes neste trecho impactado. Dez parcelas retangulares com dimens?o de 10 m x 20 m foram delimitadas na ?rea de estudo e as ?rvores com di?metro ? altura do peito maior ou igual a 5 cm fizeram parte da amostragem. Amostras de solo, ? profundidade de 5 cm, foram coletadas a fim de proceder an?lise qu?mica. A identifica??o das esp?cies arb?reas foi realizada junto ao Herb?rio RBR do Departamento de Bot?nica, do Instituto de Biologia da UFRRJ. Procedeu-se an?lise de correspond?ncia can?nica (ACC), via Software PC-ORD vers?o 5.0, com o objetivo de avaliar se os fatores qu?micos do solo influenciam a distribui??o das esp?cies arb?reas no local da amostragem. Um total de 277 indiv?duos foram amostrados, perfazendo 33 esp?cies, 25 g?neros e 16 fam?lias. A esp?cie Cupania emarginata (camboat?), fam?lia Sapindaceae, com aproximadamente 50% dos indiv?duos amostrados, foi identificada como a esp?cie dominante. As esp?cies de maior valor de import?ncia foram Cupania emarginata, Tapirira guianensis, Byrsonima sericea, Myrsine guianensis, Eugenia punicifolia, Erythroxylum ovalifolium e Erythroxylum passerinum. A fam?lia Fabaceae, com 7 esp?cies, apresentou a maior riqueza. As informa??es oriundas da ACC demonstraram que os eixos 1 e 2 somados explicam apenas 14,5% da varia??o dos dados, indicando uma baixa correla??o entre os par?metros qu?micos do solo e a distribui??o das ?rvores no local de amostragem. Devem ser aumentados os esfor?os para prote??o deste remanescente de vegeta??o de restinga da cidade do Rio de Janeiro devido ao elevado n?mero de esp?cies com pequena representatividade e bem como que algumas delas est?o situadas em n?vel de amea?a vulner?vel ou em perigo de extin??o

Abstract:
Denna studie grundar sig i vår syn på och intresse av rörelse, med utgångspunkt i detta vill vi ta reda på om förskollärarna i denna studie arbetar med rörelse tillsammans med barn i den dagliga verksamheten, i så fall på vilket sätt och varför. Vi tar upp för området relevant litteratur som beskriver hur rörelse påverkar barns utveckling positivt både fysiskt och psykiskt. Studien är kvalitativ och vi har använt oss av intervju som metod då vi ser det som mest lämpat utifrån vårt syfte. Resultatet visar att alla informanterna har liknande syn på barns rörelse, att det är viktigt att de får röra sig. Informanterna uttrycker att de arbetar med rörelse i någon form i verksamheten men sällan planerar för det. En plats som alla informanter besöker ofta tillsammans med barnen och där de ser bra möjligheter för rörelse är skogen. En slutsats vi drar i denna studie är att rörelse ofta hänger med i andra aktiviteter där fokus inte ligger på rörelse. En annan slutsats vi drar är att förskollärare måste tänka medvetet kring barns rörelse i förskolan.

Abstract:
Pasaulio globalizacijos procesas, Lietuvos švietimo integracija į Europos Sąjungos švietimo erdvę reikalauja ir mokyklų vadovų įvairiapusių kompetencijų, kad galėtų patenkinti bendruomenės poreikius, kurie identifikuoja ne tik mokinį, mokytoją, tėvus(globėjus), bet ir nuolat besikeičiančią fizinę ir ekonominę aplinką. Šiuolaikinei bendrojo lavinimo mokyklai yra reikalingi aukščiausios kvalifikacijos vadybos specialistai: kompetentingi, turintys reikiamų žinių ir praktinių įgūdžių, nuolat tobulinantys savo kvalifikaciją bei vadybinius gebėjimus, darantys įtaką kaitos procesams savo mokyklose. Vykstant kaitos procesams, keičiasi ir pagrindinių mokyklų vadovai, kurie turi prisitaikyti prie kintančių švietimo reformų sąlygų, bandyti keisti patiems save bei savo institucijas. Todėl įdomu, ar pagrindinių mokyklų vadovai yra pasirengę pradėti keistis nuo savęs, keisti darbo metodus, vadovautis kitomis tiesomis, gilinti vadybos žinias ir taikyti jas nelengvame darbe. Atsižvelgiant į tai, buvo iškelta tyrimo problema. Nors apie vadovavimo stilius ir mokyklų kaitą atlikti įvairūs tyrimai, ta���iau kyla probleminių klausimų, ar pagrindinės mokyklos vadovas gali savarankiškai veikti vadovaujamos mokyklos kaitą, ar pagrindinės mokyklos vadovo vadovavimo stilius lemia pedagoginį procesą. Tyrimo objektu buvo pasirinkta – vadovavimo stilių įtaka mokyklos kaitai Tyrimo tikslas - išanalizuoti vadovavimo stilių įtakos mokyklos kaitai ypatumus Buvo iškelta hipotezė- kaip vadovo pasirinktas...

Can the leading manager of primary school independently make influence for school alternation? Did the managing style of primary school manager can influence pedagogical process? Object of research – influence of management styles for school alternation process. Aim of work – to evaluate the peculiarities of influence for managing styles on school changes: not stimulate alternation, or it is a main factor of school alternation. On purpose to unfold the main aim of research such tasks were suggested: 1. Do the theoretical analysis of managing styles. 2. Summarize influence of managing styles on school changing. 3.

Abstract:
This paper presents an investigation in how a jewelry artist understands the life and death, permanence and impermanence of human, objects, and other creatures, by communicating still life in the form of jewelry. I will bring up a fact that death and impermanence have been forgotten by my peers, and use still life and contemporary jewelry to discuss it. The paper mainly talks about: my opinion upon life and death in modern society, why and how did I related them with still life paintings, how did I make my jewelry based on still life, and discusst a dilemma I met: how will jewelry be when they are on and not on people’s body.

Abstract:
"Stasis was defined according to Schrader as the form that links the everyday in something unified and permanent". Central to my research is the aim to create a still-life image from filmed scenes documenting the everyday actions in my living environment. In some cases however the scenes being staged function as allegories of the states and situations of daily life. I decided to mix staged and 'real' scenes because I did not want to create a documentary about the activities in my environment but to transform everydayness, as I perceive it, into the permanent and unified quality of the still-life genre. Since I work with video and the moving image it is important to examine structures of movement and time and see in which ways movement once disconnected from time may confront a stasis. Gilles Deleuze's ideas about the movement-image and the time-image will provide my theoretical framework with particular reference to the notions of movement and time in Cinema 1 and Cinema 2. Deleuze defines three levels of analysis of movement and time: "(1) the sets or closed systems, which are defined by discernible objects or distinct parts; (2) the movement of translation, which is established between these objects and modifies their respective positions; (3) the duration of the whole, a spiritual reality, which constantly changes according to its own relations".^ From these levels derive the two aspects of movement: that Which happens between objects or parts; and that which expresses the duration of a whole. Deleuze explains it as follows: "we can consider the objects or parts of a set as immobile sections; but movement is established between these sections, and relates the objects or parts to the duration of a whole which changes, and thus expresses the changing of the whole in relation to the objects and it is itself a mobile section of duration". In relation to the cinematographic concepts, Deleuze maintains that what determines the whole and produces movement is montage, by means of continuities, cutting and false continuities. Through montage and the movement of the camera the shot can express both the relationship Between objects or parts and at the same time the state of the whole.

An analogy is established between what the thesis defines as still life and an urban composition (a site in East Cambridge). Through this analogy a specific understanding of architecture, site, and still life is explored. The analogy is used as a descriptive tool allowing the painting subject matter to be treated architecturally and architecture to be treated in a painterly manner. The site is analyzed as a still life to guide operational moves throughout the design exercise and to increase the experience of the site as both subject and object.<br>by Guy Phillip Willey.<br>M.Arch.

Abstract:
Social media content moderators perform a critical function of modern civic society: they act as first responders on social media platforms, getting confronted with harmful digital content on a daily basis.Without them, the Internet would be at the mercy of the unpredictable, global social climate, likely making the Internet a less safe, less peaceful place to be. Nevertheless, disturbing content screening cannot easily be addressed with the future’s planned full integration of artificial intelligence. Content moderation is not a technical challenge that can be solved by employing artificial intelligence as the solution to the content moderation related issues. Automated tools, for example, which are built to recognise creative permutations of language, fail their job. Cultural nuances and linguistic specificities are challenging to algorithms. For this reason, it is important to keep content moderation as a human process, because algorithms are not infallible in the content screening workflow and despite all the struggles content moderators face with screening content. The design concept explores how the emergence of deep fakes can be tackled by social media content moderators without relying too much on algorithms and computer power, but on human skills.

Abstract:
My individual journey as an artist has allowed me to develop in what can be considered two societal extremes; growing up in condensed suburban Southern California to living in rural mid-American Iowa. This change in settings caused me to question how the environment one grows up in influences his cultural and social perspective. Within this environment exists a support structure of family, friends, and community who also play a large role in how an individual's perception develops, including concepts of honesty, integrity, and ethics- but to what extent? This question of how different circumstances and interactions define our beliefs and values is the heart of my artistic practice.

Abstract:
“The World Still Undiscovered” explores a particular way of seeing the common setting, i.e., the so-called West, of all seven of the short stories contained therein, specifically responding to two ideas of the West: in America, that the West is somewhere you can go to find the freedom to grow up independent of the oppression of civilization; and in Canada, that the West is a place that is inherently deadly and therefore boxes people into small, narrow towns. Each of these stories resists that binary.
