Syftet med studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan anknytningsstil och ätstört matbeteende. Denna studie presenterar ätstört matbeteende som ett kontinuum där studien sträcker sig från en otvungen inställning till mat till en klinisk ätstörningsdiagnos. I mitten av kontinuet ligger mildare former av ätstört matbeteende. Målet med denna studie var att undersöka om olika anknytningsstilar varierar systematiskt på det ätstörda matbeteende kontinuet. Data hämtades från ett självadministrerat frågeformulär som besvarades av 111 deltagare mellan 13 och 57 år gamla. Deltagarna rekryterades från ätstörnings föreningar och studenter och lärare från gymnasieskolor. Resultatet visar att det fanns ett samband mellan otrygg anknytningsstil och ätstört matbeteende. Speciellt visade det sig att det fanns ett starkt samband mellan den ängsliga anknytningsstilen bifallsbehov och ätstört mat beteende. / The purpose of this study was to examine the connection between attachment and disordered eating behavior. This study presents disordered eating behavior as a continuum, ranging from unstrained eating behaviors at one end of the continuum, clinical eating disorder at the other end of the continuum, and milder forms of disordered eating at intermediate points. The aim was to examine if individual attachment styles vary systematically along the disordered eating continuum. Data were collected from a self-administered questionnaire, from - 111 participants in ages between 13 – 57 years. The participants were recruited from forum for individuals who have or have had eating disorders, as well as among individuals from upper secondary school, both students and teachers. The results showed a systematic association between insecure attachments and disordered eating behaviors. They further revealed a positive association between relational insecurity and need for continuous confirmation, as a specific component of insecure attachment and eating disordered behavior.

In this thesis, we present solutions to several problems concerning one-dimensi- onal continua. We give an inductive description of graphs with a given disconnec- tion number, this answers a question of S. B. Nadler. Further, we state a topo- logical characterization of the Sierpi'nski triangle. In the study of shore sets in dendroids and λ-dendroids we obtain several positive results and we also provide some counterexamples. By doing this, we continue in the recent work of several authors. We are also dealing with the notion of 1 2 -homogeneity and we prove that up to homeomorphism there are only two 1 2 -homogeneous chainable continua with just two end points. We present also a new elegant proof of a classical theorem of Waraszkiewicz. 1

The focus of the thesis is to investigate how four university archivists perceive the functionality of the new Swedish process-oriented archival description system. University archivists are at the center of the study since the organizational structure of a university is process-oriented to some degree. However universities still have activities that are more challenging to view as processes, such as research. Universities were thus identified as a suitable candidate to analyze how process-oriented archival description functions in an environment that both is and is not clearly process-oriented. The research questions posed in this study are all related to the new archival description model, and archivists own experiences and views of the system. The main questions in the study concern the functionality of the system, its durability (if there is a repeated call for modification of the model), how the archival description system works with organizations that are not process-oriented, as well as if the system can operate as a finding aid in a long term perspective. The theoretical aim of the study is based around two different and sometimes contrasting views on the nature of archival records; namely the life cycle- and continuum-model. According to the life cycle-perspective records follow a linear-path from birth to death, reaching pre-destined pit stops along the way. The continuum theorists imagine records not as linear but as multifaceted, having multiple lives and never reaching a “death”-state. In Sweden, earlier research has shown that the life cycle-model has dominated the archival scene, but the new process-oriented archival description system could open up for a continuum-related approach. This study shows that no archivist made any statements that hinted in a continuum-way of thinking, and the results rather substantiated earlier research claiming the dominance of the life cycle-model. Investigation results show that three out of four archivists don’t believe that the archival description model is suitable for universities, as the organizational structure is not process-oriented. All of the archivists are struggling with describing activities as process-based, and three out of four archivists claim that description ends upcontrived. All archivists however concur that the positive effects of the system could result in government agencies increases transparency and accountability, but only if the system works as intended. The long term durability of the description model is also put in question from three out of four archivists. All archivists additionally regard the model as sensitive to organizational changes, and all universities are preparingfor and expecting numerous future modifications. The conclusion of the study is that the process-oriented archival description system is difficult to apply to organizations that have activities with unclear processes. The results furthermore indicate that the system needs continuous effort to maintain, due to the nature of ever changing organizations. As a finding aid the model is viewed as flawed, as the classification schema will be revised several times, which will certainly demand that the user have assistance in understanding the schema. All archivists claim that the archival function (and not the classification schema) of the university will be the main search tool for all users in the future.

Mandarin Chinese numeral classifiers receive considerable at-tention in linguistic research. The status of the general classifier 个 gè re-mains unresolved. Many linguists suggest that the use of 个 gè as a noun classifier is arbitrary. This view is challenged in the current study. Relying on the CCL-Corpus of Peking University and data from Google, we investigated which nouns for living beings are most likely classified by the general clas-sifier 个 gè. The results suggest that the use of the classifier 个 gè is motivated by an anthropocentric continuum as described by Köpcke and Zubin in the 1990s. We tested Köpcke and Zubin’s approach with Chinese native speakers. We examined 76 animal expressions to explore the semantic interdepen-dence of numeral classifiers and the nouns. Our study shows that nouns with the semantic feature [+ animate] are more likely to be classified by 个 gè if their denotatum is either very close to or very far located from the anthropo-centric center. In contrast animate nouns whose denotata are located at some intermediate distance from the anthropocentric center are less likely to be classified by 个 gè.

Jag har tidigare haft mina funderingar över att reflektera kring mitt eget verk och mitt eget komponerande. Funderingar om att det skulle bli för personligt och utlämnande. Det finns dock något spännande i att skriva om sig själv och sitt komponerande, en möjlighet att göra en resa inom sig själv. Så jag har i slutändan beslutat mig för att ta denna chans att skriva om mina tankar kring musik och om hur jag arbetar med utommusikalisk inspiration i mitt komponerande. Orkesterstycket Kanoper, den klingande delen av mitt examensarbete, är inspirerat av den egyptiska mytologin och gudavärlden; utan att jag är religös eller en anhängare av den gammelegyptiska tron, men jag har en förkärlek för det mytiska. Mytologi har varit ett stort nöje och en inspirationskälla för mig enda sedan jag var ett litet barn och jag lånade böcker om grekisk, egyptisk och nordisk mytologi från familjens bokhyllor, först kanske mest för att titta på bilder men allteftersom jag lärde mig läsa så var det några av de första böckerna jag läste. Jag tycker att den egyptiska mytologin lämpar sig väl för de undertonerna jag vill jobba med när jag skriver mina stycken samt inspirerar till de klangerna jag vill ha med i mina kompositioner. / <p>Bilaga: 1 partitur.</p>

Diese Arbeit liefert ein dreidimensionales numerisches Homogenisierungskonzept, welches beim Übergang von der Mikro- zur Makroskala einen Wechsel in der Kontinuumsbeschreibung beinhaltet. Während für die Beschreibung der Makroskala das verallgemeinerte Cosserat-Kontinuum verwendet wird, basiert die Mikroskala auf der klassischen Cauchy-Theorie. Um das homogene Cosserat-Ersatzmaterial im Rahmen numerischer Simulationen nutzen zu können, erfolgt die Implementierung geeigneter Finiter Elemente in das Programmsystem Abaqus und deren Verifikation. Neben der Diskussion der bei der Homogenisierung beobachteten Effekte werden anhand eines idealisierten Modells eines biaxialverstärkten Mehrlagengestrickes die Vorteile gegenüber der klassischen Herangehensweise aufgezeigt. / This contribution provides a threedimensional homogenization approach which includes the switch of the continuum theory during the scale transition. Whereas the microscopic scale is described in the framework of the classical Cauchy theory, the macroscopic scale is based on the generalized Cosserat continuum. In order to use the obtained homogeneous Cosserat material, suitable finite elements are implemented in the commercial program system Abaqus followed by an appropriate verification. Beside the discussion of the arising effects the advantages of this approach compared to the classical procedure are shown by means of an idealized model of a biaxial woven fabric.
