Reparationsvarv. Beckholmen kan på grund av sin historia anses vara en ofta hänsynslöst behandlad ö. Hänsynslös mot öns natur och egna ordning, för att ständigt fylla ny funktion och nya ändamål. Idag är ön starkt märkt av denna behandling, och i kontrast till tidigare, ansedd som en oerhört känslig plats, både i sin natur och exponering för staden. Staden själv ser olika värden i Beckholmen, vilka står i stark strid med varandra. Att vilja bevara Beckholmen som en ö med skärgårdsframtoning, som en förlängning av Djurgården, i kontrast till det kulturhistoriska värdet i Beckholmens tidigare varvsverksamhet som bör fortskrida och utvecklas, gör det nödvändigt att på något sätt välja sida i frågan. Vi har fått i uppgift att rita ett reparationsvarv på denna ö, och för mig kändes det mest naturliga att låta den dramatik och förändring som funnits genom historien fortskrida. Även om platsen kan anses för liten för sitt program, så är Beckholmen en unik möjlighet, och ursäkt, för att lägga en helt ny industribyggnad mitt i Stockholms hjärta. Mitt i vyn i Stockholms inlopp, skulle varvsindustrin visa att staden än idag hålls upp av människor som arbetar. Industrier och dess arbetare måste inte förpassas till förorten, utan dessa är kvaliteter som visar en levande stad, där liv man inte förväntar sig får synas och ta plats. Jag föreslår en permanent byggnad på Beckholmen. Permanent i den bemärkelsen att den ska definiera platsen med sin volym, men vara fri i sina rum. Flexibiliteten gör industrin anpassningsbar och tålig för förändring, men med fasta punkter att förhålla sig till. Tornet finns dels för volymens balans, men främst för bostäder för varvets personal. I liknelse med fyren står tornet synligt för södra Stockholm, utan att skämmas varken för sig själv eller sitt innehåll. / Beckholmen is an island, not always carefully threated by history. To fulfill new purposes and functions, the island has always been altered for new needs. Today is Beckholmen strongly marked by this treatment, and has transformed to be known as a very sensitive and fragile place, both in nature and exposure for Stockholm. Strong wills with different ambitions want to decide about Beckholmen’s future. There are different approaches amongst for example the city, Stadsbyggnadskontoret and Djurgårdsförvaltningen, about what qualities are most worth embracing. We have been asked to draw a ship yard for reparations at Beckholmen. The most natural approach for me was to let the island’s eventful history continue in to the future. Beckholmen is a unique possibility to build a brand new industrial building in the heart of Stockholm, and let it be shown that the city is carried by people who works. Why does an industry have to be deported to the suburbs, when it’s rather an indication of a living city?   I purpose a permanent building at Beckholmen. Permanent to define the site with its volume, but with flexible spaces within. The flexibility makes the industry adaptable to changes, but with some fixed part to relate. The tower is partly for the balance of the volumes, but mainly for residence of the shipyard staff. Alike a lighthouse it stands there visible for south of Stockholm, without being ashamed for either itself, or what it contains.

This diploma project aims to explore the importance of details and small gestures in architecture.  Whether its a technical detail, a choice of material or a lighting fixture, these seemingly small gestures all influence how we experience a room. It is my belief that these little details, can make a big difference to how we experience our everyday life and that they communicate care and thoughtfulness. What difference does a minor change in material, division of space or a door handle do to the experience of a room as a whole; which are those small gestures that show care and thoughtfulness?  The project has explored details and small gestures in three categories: Division of space, Materiality & Elements, partially though case studies of renowned buildings from architects such as Alvar Aalto, Josef Frank and Sigurd Lewerentz, as well as though the proposal of a redesign of the courthouse of Katrineholm, into a Municipal Archive. The redesign tested small gestures in relationship the room as a whole, to each other and to its surroundings.  “We should work for simple, good, undecorated things, but things which are in harmony with the human being and organically suited to the little man in the street” - Alvar Aalto / Detta examensarbete ämnar utforska vikten av detaljer och små gester inom arkitekturen. Oavsett om det handlar om en teknisk detalj, ett val av material eller en lampa, har de små gesterna inom arkitekturen inflytande på hur vi upplever rum. Det är min övertygelse att de små detaljerna gör en stor skillnad på hur vi upplever vår vardag och att de uttrycker en omtanke för vår omgivning. Vilka detaljer gör mest skillnad för upplevelsen av ett rum och vilka är då dessa små gester som uttycker omtanke och värdighet? Projektet har undersökt detaljer i tre kategorier: Division of space, Materiality och Elements (Rumsindelning, Materialitet & Objekt), dels genom studier av kända byggnader från arkitekterna Alvar Aalto, Josef Frank och sigurd Lewerentz, och dels genom att rita ett förslag på en ombyggnad av Tingshuset i Katrineholm till kommunarkiv. Ombyggnaden har testat olika små gester, som till exempel bord, stenläggningar och dörrhandtag, deras förhållande till varandra och byggnaden som helhet.  “We should work for simple, good, undecorated things, but things which are in harmony with the human being and organically suited to the little man in the street” - Alvar Aalto

På grund av ett ökat behov av bostäder samt en önskan att bespara värdefull natur- och jordbruksmark växer många städer inåt genom förtätning. Det har tidigare genomförts mycket forskning på potentialen att leverera samma bebyggelsetäthet på olika sätt. En högre densitet kan lika effektivt uppnås genom medelhöga byggnader som av hög bebyggelse och samma exploateringsgrad går att uppnå med hjälp av olika bebyggelsestrukturer. De byggda formernas sociala och kvalitativa påverkan mäts däremot desto mer sällan. Detta arbete utgår från frågeställningen om vilka värden som är eftersträvansvärda enligt invånare i stadens byggda miljö. För att bygga städer människor trivs i bör förtätning bedömas utefter kvalitativa kriterier vilket medför att uppskattade värden behöver identifieras. Därför ämnar detta arbete undersöka hur värden som uppskattas av invånare kan tillgodoses i den byggda miljön. En kunskapsöversikt över täthet, förtätning, livet mellan husen och vad invånare värderar ligger till grund för den vidare studien om de utvalda värdena; grönstruktur och en mänsklig skala. Därefter analyseras värden som kan påverkas av bebyggelsetyper med hjälp av schematiska skisser vars resultat sammanställs i en verktygslåda över de olika bebyggelsetypernas egenskaper. Arbetet mynnar sedan ut i två separata gestaltningsförslag vilka skildrar exempel på hur verktygslådan och platsgestaltning kan appliceras vid förtätning med fokus på att tillföra värden som invånare uppskattar.

Between the local and the global: climate, local governments, networks The notion of an ongoing global warming is shared by a large number of researchers and decision-makers around the world. Through the act of signing the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change a majority of the world's naitons have accepted the idea of human induced climate change, and to develop national climate change mitigation programmes. The Kyoto protocol later quantified the commitments made by the nations. The issue of climate change has become a political issue of its own. In the European Union as well as in Sweden and other nations, climate mitigation goals, programmes and strategies are developed. This is also the situation on the local level, for example in Swedish municipalities, which is the context of this study. Local goverment is an important actor in climate mitigation, both as a political organization in its own right and as an arena involving actors from different sectors in society. Climate change mitigation measures conducted by local governments re partly shaped by national grant programmes. The study shows, however, that the local context - the palce - with its natural prerequisites, economic structures and composition of actors, is just as decisive for how the local climate policies are developed and implemented. It also shows that although responsibility for the environment is an important driving force in local climate mitigation there are at least two other dirving forces; local and regional development and the symbolic valute of being in the forefront of climate change mitigation. Another arena where actors in climate change mitigation meet is the network. Together wiht actors from different sectors and levels many municipalities participate in various networks, with local to global extension. The fact that the netsorks like climate change in inself transcends political and administrative borders, is alsö addressed theoretically in the study, focusing upon the concepts of re-scaling, multilevel governance and network governance, which constitute the theoretichal fram of the thesis.

&scaron;irom sveta. Te&scaron;ka traumatska moždana o&scaron;tećenja (TTMO) čine 10% svih TMO i imaju visoku stopu mortaliteta i neizvestan oporavak. Ranije prepoznavanje sistemskih faktora koji utiču na ishod lečenja može da ima značajan uticaj na pravovremeno započinjanje terapijskih mera i smanjivanje morbiditeta i mortaliteta. Cilj istraživanja: Identifikovati sistemske faktore koji imaju značajan uticaj na ishod lečenja povređenih sa TTMO u Jedinici intenzivnog lečenja (JIL) tokom prvog dana hospitalizacije. Metodologija: Ispitivanje je sprovedeno kao retrospektivno-prospektivna studija koja je obuhvatila 115 povređenih ispitanika sa TTMO koji su hospitalizovani u JIL Urgentnog centra Kliničkog centra Vojvodine (UC KCV) u periodu od 1.01.2014.-1.10.2017. Iz medicinske dokumentacije, za svakog ispitanika uključenog u istraživanje su uzeti u razmatranje i analizu sledeći parametri u toku prvih 24 časa od momenta prijema u JIL: demografske i op&scaron;te karakteristike ispitanika od značaja za istraživanje i sistemski prediktivni faktori (sistolni i srednji arterijski pritisak- SAP/MAP, glikemija-&Scaron;UK, telesna temperatura-TT, pH, parcijalni pritisak kiseonika-PaO2 i parcijalni pritisak ugljem dioksida- PaCO2) registrovani u pet vremenskih tačaka (0h, 6h, 12h,18h, 24h). Svi gore navedeni podaci su posmatrani i analizirani kao prediktorski faktori tj. nezavisne varijable u odnosu na zavisnu varijablu &bdquo;ishod lečenja&ldquo; definisanu kao Glazgovska skala ishoda (Glasgow outcome scale-GOS) nakon otpusta povređenih iz JIL na Kliniku za neurohirurgiju KCV i GOS nakon otpusta iz Klinike za neurohirurgiju KCV i &bdquo;tok lečenja&ldquo; definisan kroz dužinu boravka povređenih u JIL UC KCV, dužinu boravka na Klinici za neurohirurgiju KCV, odnosno ukupno trajanje hospitalizacije u KCV, kao i otpust kući ili u odgovarajući rehabilitacioni centar. Statistička analiza je izvr&scaron;ena pomoću statističkog paketa IBM SPSS 23. Podaci su predstavljeni tabelarno i grafički, a statistička značajnost određivana je na nivou p &lt; 0,05. Prikupljeni podaci su obrađeni adekvatnim statističkim metodima. Rezultati: Sistemski faktori koji su se izdvojili kao prediktori smrtnog ishoda (GOS 1) kod povređenih sa TTMO tokom prvog dana boravka u JIL su upotreba vazoaktivne potpore i glikemija. Upotreba vazoaktivne potpore povećava verovatnoću za smrtni ishod 4,7 puta (OR=0,214; 95%CI: 0,096-0,479; p&lt;0,05). i vrednosti glikemije &gt; 10 mmol/l povećavaju verovatnoću za smrtni ishod u nultom satu (OR= 0,240, 95%CI: 0,087-0,662; p=0,05) i u 24 satu (OR=0,206, 95%CI: 0,037 &ndash; 0,929; p=0,05). Sa svakim porastom telesne temperature za jednu jedinicu u posmatranom intervalu raste verovatnoća za pozitivan ishod (OR =2,118 , 95%CI: 1,097 &ndash; 4,091; p&lt;0,05) i vrednosti glikemije u intervalu od 4-8 mmol/l povećavaju verovatnoću za pozitivan ishod 2,5 puta. Sistemski faktori koji su se izdvojili u smislu predikcije ishoda lečenja ispitanika nakon otpusta iz JIL su vrednosti glikemije i telesna temperatura. Vrednost glikemije na prijemu u intervalu od 6,9 do 7,4 mmol/l povećavaju verovatnoću boljeg oporavka (GOS 4-5 vs. GOS 2-3). Niže vrednosti glikemiije u narednim vremenskim tačkama (6h, 12h, 18h) takođe povećavaju verovatnoću za bolji oporavak. Ukoliko je telesna temperatura u 6-om i 12-om satu, vi&scaron;a od 36,5 &deg;C veća je verovatnoća za bolji neurolo&scaron;ki oporavak, prilikom otpusta iz JIL, odnosno Klinike za neurohirurgiju KCV. Ispitanici koji su imali vi&scaron;e vrednosti telesne temperature su imali duže trajanje hospitalizacije (OR=4,096; 95%CI; 0,709-7,483;p&lt;0,05). Na dužinu boravka u JIL, kao i na otpust kući ili odgovarajući rehabilitacioni centar nije imao uticaj nijedan posmatrani sistemski faktor. Zaključak: Sistemski prediktivni faktori toka i ishoda lečenja povređenih sa TTMO su upotreba vazoaktivne potpore, glikemija i telesna temperatura.</p> / <p>Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health problem that affects about 10 million people worldwide annually. Severe traumatic brain injury (STBI) account for 10% of all TBI and has high morbidity and unreliable recovery. Early recognition of systemic factors that affect the treatment outcome can have a significant impact on the timely initiation of therapeutic measures and the reduction of morbidity and mortality. The objective of the research: to identify systemic factors that have a significant impact on the treatment outcome of the STBI patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) during the first day of hospitalization. Methodology: The study was conducted as a retrospective-prospective study that included 115 injured patients with STBI who were hospitalized in the ICU, Emergency Center (EC) of the Clinical Center of Vojvodina (CCV) in the period from 01.01.2014 to 1.10.2017. From the medical documentation, for each participant involved in the research, the following parameters within the first 24 hours after the admission were considered and analyzed: demographic and general characteristics of the participants of importance for research and systemic predictive factors (systolic and mean arterial pressure-SAP / MAP, glycemia, body temperature -TT, pH, partial pressure of oxygen-PaO2 and partial pressure of carbon dioxide-PaCO2) registered at five time points (0h, 6h, 12h,18h, 24h). All of the above data were observed and analyzed as predictors, ie, independent variables in relation to the dependent variable &quot;treatment outcome&quot; defined as the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) after the transfer from the ICU to the Clinic of neurosurgery of the CCV and GOS after discharge from a Clinic of neurosurgery and &quot;treatment course&quot; defined by length of stay in ICU, or the total duration of hospitalization in CCV, as well as the release to the home or the appropriate rehabilitation center. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS 23 statistical package. The data are presented in tables and graphs, and the statistical significance was determined at p &lt;0.05. The collected data were processed with adequate statistical methods. Results: Systemic factors that had predictive value for the lethal outcome (GOS 1) in STBI during the first day of ICU stay were the use of vasopressors and glycemia. The use of vasopressors increases the likelihood of fatal outcome 4.7 times (OR= 0,214; 95%CI: 0,096-0,479; p&lt;0,05) and glycemic values &gt; 10 mmol/l increase the likelihood of fatal outcome on admission (OR=0,240, 95%CI: 0,087-0,662; p=0,05) and after 24 hours (OR=0,206, 95%CI: 0,037 &ndash; 0,929; p=0,05). With each increase in body temperature for one unit in the observed interval, the probability of a positive outcome increases (OR=2,118, 95%CI: 1,097 &ndash; 4,091;p&lt;0,05) and glycemic values in the range 4-8 mmol/l increase the probability of a positive outcome 2.5 times. Systemic factors that predict the treatment outcome of the patients after their discharge from ICU are glycemia and body temperature. The blood sugar on admission in the ICU in the range from 6.9 to 7.4 mmol/l increases the opportunity of a better recovery (GOS 4-5 vs. GOS 2-3). Lower glycemic values at the next time points (6h, 12h, 18h) also increase the opportunity of a better recovery. If the body temperature in the 6th and 12th-hour postadmission is higher than 36.5&deg; C, the greater opportunity for better neurological improvement when the patient is discharged from ICU, or from the Clinic of neurosurgery. Participants who had higher values of body temperature had a longer duration of hospitalization (OR 4.096; 95% CI; 0.709-7.483;p&lt;0,05). The length of the stay in ICU, as well as the release to the home or the appropriate rehabilitation center, was not affected by any observed systemic factor. Conclusion: Systemic predictive flow factors and outcome of treatment factors with STBI use of vasopressors, glycemia and body temperature.</p>

Water has always had a controlling influence on the earth’s evolution. Understanding and modelling the large-scale hydrological cycle is important for climate prediction and water-resources studies. In recent years large-scale hydrological models, including the WASMOD-­M evaluated in the thesis, have increasingly become a main assessment tool for global water resources. The monthly version of WASMOD-M, the starting point of the thesis, revealed restraints imposed by limited hydrological and climate data quality and the need to reduce model-structure uncertainties. The model simulated the global water balance with a small volume error but was less successful in capturing the dynamics. In the last years, global high-quality, high-resolution topographies and hydro­graphies have become available. The main thrust of the thesis was the development of a daily WASMOD-M making use of these data to better capture the global water dynamics and to parameter­ise local non-linear processes into the large-scale model. Scale independency, parsimonious model structure, and computational efficiency were main concerns throughout the model development. A new scale-independent routing algorithm, named NRF for network-response function, using two aggregated high-resolution hydrographies, HYDRO1k and HydroSHEDS, was developed and tested in three river basins with different climates in China and North America. The algorithm preserves the spatially distributed time-delay information in the form of simple network-response functions for any low-resolution grid cell in a large-scale hydrological model. A distributed runoff-generation algorithm, named TRG for topography-derived runoff generation, was developed to represent the highly non-linear process at large scales. The algorithm, when inserted into the daily WASMOD-M and tested in same three basins, led to the same or a slightly improved performance compared to a one-layer VIC model, with one parameter less to be calibrated. The TRG algorithm also offered a more realistic spatial pattern for runoff generation. The thesis identified significant improvements in model performance when 1) local instead of global climate data were used, and 2) when the scale-independent NRF routing algorithm was used instead of a traditional storage-based routing algorithm. In the same time, spatial resolution of climate input and choice of high-resolution hydrography have secondary effects on model performance. Two high-resolution topographies and hydrographies were used and compared, and new tech­niques were developed to aggregate their information for use at large scales. The advantages and numerical efficiency of feeding high-resolution information into low-resolution global models were highlighted. / Vatten har alltid varit en nyckelfaktor för jordens utveckling. Att förstå och kunna modellera det storska­liga vattenkretsloppet är betydelsefullt såväl för klimatförutsägelser som för studier av vattenresur­ser. På senare år har storskaliga hydrologiska modeller, däribland WASMOD-M som utvärderas i denna avhand­ling, i ökande utsträckning kommit att användas som huvudverktyg för utvärdering av globala vattenresurser. Den månatliga versionen av WASMOD-M, avhandlingens startpunkt, användes för att påvisa inskränk­ningar som låg i begränsande hydrologi- och klimatdata liksom behovet av att minska model­lens strukturella osäkerheter. Modellen simulerade den globala vattenbalansen med ett mycket litet volymfel (avrinningens långtidsmedelvärde) men var mindre lyckosam att efterlikna dynamiken. Under se­nare tid har globala topografiska och hydrografiska data med hög rumslig upplösning och kvalitet blivit tillgängliga. Avhandlingens huvudsakliga drivkraft var att utveckla WASMOD-M med hjälp av dessa data i syfte att bättre fånga den globala vattendynamiken och för att parametrisera lokala ickelin­jära processer i den storskaliga modellen. Under hela modellutvecklingen har skaloberoende, lågparametrise­rad modellstruktur och numerisk beräkningseffektivitet varit viktiga bivillkor. En ny skaloberoende svarstidsalgoritm, benämnd NRF (network-response function), som utnyttjar två aggregerade högupplösta hydrografier, HYDRO1k och HydroSHEDS, utvecklades och provades i tre avrinningsområden med olika klimat i Kina och Nordamerika. Algoritmen bevarar den rumsligt fördelade informationen om koncentrationstider i form av enkla responsfunktioner för vattendragsnä­tet för godtyckliga lågupplösta beräkningsrutor in en storskalig hydrologisk modell. En distribuerad algoritm för avrinningsbildning, benämnd TRG (topography-derived runoff genera­tion), utvecklades för att representera den höggradigt ickelinjära processen i större skalor. Algoritmen användes i den dagliga WASMOD-M och provades i samma tre avrinningsområden som ovan. Modellprestanda blev lika bra eller bättre än en enlagers VIC-modell fast med en parameter mindre att kalibrera. TRG-algoritmen gav ett rimligare rumsligt mönster för avrinningsbildningen. Avhandlingen har identifierat påtagliga förbättringar i modellprestanda när 1) lokala i stället för globala klimatdata användes och 2) när NRF, den skaloberoende svarstidsalgoritmen användes i stället för en traditionell magasinsbaserad svarstidsalgoritm. Samtidigt har klimatdatas rumsliga upplösning och val av högupplöst hydrografi en andra ordningens inverkan på modellprestanda. Två högupplösta topografier och hydrografier användes och jämfördes, och nya tekniker utveckla­des för att aggregera deras informationsinnehåll i stora skalor. Fördelarna och den numeriska beräkningsef­fektiviteten av högupplöst information i lågupplösta globala modeller har belysts.

Theory of mind involves the ability to take another person’s perspective in thought, emotions and intentions.  There is today a lack of instruments to assess children’s development of Theory of Mind (ToM) in Swedish. ToM is considered by many scientists to be the basis for development of pragmatic competence. The relationship between these two abilities is complex and not fully resolved. Both abilities are important components for the development of social skills.     The purpose of this study was to compare 4 and 5-year olds ToM-ability measured with a Swedish version of Wellman and Liu’s ToM-scale, Sally Anne and Social Emotional Test with estimated pragmatic competence measured with the Children’s Communication Checklist (CCC). To make this possible the study also aims to translate and evaluate a Swedish version of Wellman and Liu’s ToM-scale. In the study 39 children in the age of 4 and 5 years old participated (20 4-year olds and 19 5-year olds).     The present study can point to the relationship between the ToM1 ability false belief and pragmatic abilities, as well as different abilities related to pragmatics (conversational rapport, use of discourse context and prosody). Correlation between prosody and other measures of ToM1 abilities was also observed. The result can be linked to previous research on the relationship between pragmatics and ToM. ToM and pragmatic are two abilities that are linked to each other. But as the result is not entirely conclusive, they may also shed more light to the complexity of these abilities and their relationship.      The result of the evaluation of Wellman and Liu’s ToM-scale shows that most of the children got a result pattern that agreed with the hypothesis of a gradual acquisition of ToM-abilties. However, Swedish 4 year olds did to a greater extent passed questions in a pattern that was not compatible with the gradual acquisition claim than American children did in a previous study. One reason for this result may be cultural differences. More research is needed on a larger selection of subjects and a wider range of age groups before any conclusions can be drawn. However, the translated scale can be used in a qualitative way, to examine which aspects of a ToM a child comprehends.

Background Lack of coordination between screening studies for common mental disorders in primary care and community epidemiological samples impedes progress in clinical epidemiology. Short screening scales based on the World Health Organization (WHO) Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI), the diagnostic interview used in community epidemiological surveys throughout the world, were developed to address this problem. Method Expert reviews and cognitive interviews generated CIDI screening scale (CIDI-SC) item pools for 30-day DSM-IV-TR major depressive episode (MDE), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder (PD) and bipolar disorder (BPD). These items were administered to 3058 unselected patients in 29 US primary care offices. Blinded SCID clinical reinterviews were administered to 206 of these patients, oversampling screened positives. Results Stepwise regression selected optimal screening items to predict clinical diagnoses. Excellent concordance [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)] was found between continuous CIDI-SC and DSM-IV/SCID diagnoses of 30-day MDE (0.93), GAD (0.88), PD (0.90) and BPD (0.97), with only 9–38 questions needed to administer all scales. CIDI-SC versus SCID prevalence differences are insignificant at the optimal CIDI-SC diagnostic thresholds (χ2 1 = 0.0–2.9, p = 0.09–0.94). Individual-level diagnostic concordance at these thresholds is substantial (AUC 0.81–0.86, sensitivity 68.0–80.2%, specificity 90.1–98.8%). Likelihood ratio positive (LR+) exceeds 10 and LR− is 0.1 or less at informative thresholds for all diagnoses. Conclusions CIDI-SC operating characteristics are equivalent (MDE, GAD) or superior (PD, BPD) to those of the best alternative screening scales. CIDI-SC results can be compared directly to general population CIDI survey results or used to target and streamline second-stage CIDIs.

Der Bereich des Controllings betrieblicher Qualifikation und Bildung stellt die Controller vor erhebliche, z.T. unlösbare Probleme: Fast alles, was die Steuerung betrieblichen Lernens anbetrifft, bezieht sich auf nur schwer meßbare latente Größen. In diesem Beitrag soll die methodologische Problematik in einem zentralen Bereich der Steuerung von Maßnahmen betrieblichen Lernens angegangen werden: die Bedarfsanalyse. Zur rationalen Steuerung betrieblicher (Weiter-)Bildung ist die Ermittlung des tatsächlich vorhandenen Bildungsbedarfs unerläßlich. Nur so kann das Kriterium der Wirtschaftlichkeit von (Weiter-)Bildungsmaßnahmen erfüllt werden. Es wird dafür die Nutzung des Verfahrens der summierten Einschätzungen nach Rensis Likert (sogenannte Likert-Skalen) zur Lösung des zugrundeliegenden Meßproblems untersucht. Der Artikel liefert einen methodischen Beitrag zur Operationalisierung und Messung des Weiterbildungsbedarfs und skizziert Ansatzpunkte für weitere Forschung, um eine Anwendung in der betrieblichen Praxis zu ermöglichen.
