Tässä työssä tarkastellaan kunnan väestön demografisia muuttujia sekä kartoitetaan kirjaston palvelut ja käyttäjät. Tutkimuksessa kirjaston kohderyhmänä tarkastellaan kaikkia kuntalaisia. Kirjaston palveluita sekä olemassa olevia asiakkaita tarkastellaan kunnan väestöön verraten. Opinnäytetyön on tilannut Oulunsalon kirjasto.
Tutkimuksessa on käytetty valmiita tilastoja sekä dokumentteja kunnasta ja kirjastosta. Tilastokeskus on suurin aineiston lähde Oulunsalon kunnan ohella. Lisäksi menetelmänä käytettiin teemahaastattelua. Haastateltavina olivat Oulunsalon kirjaston työntekijät.
Työn viitekehyksessä käsitellään kuntalaista kirjaston asiakkaana sekä kirjastonkäyttöä ja sen tutkimista. Oulunsalon historiaa tarkastellaan hieman ja uuden Oulun kirjastoverkko esitellään. Kulttuuriympäristön selvityksessä käydään läpi kunnan aktiivista harraste-, järjestö- ja kulttuuritoimintaa.
Väestöselvityksessä saatuja tietoja pyritään havainnollistamaan graafisin esityksin. Palvelu- ja käyttäjäryhmäselvityksen sekä aiempien yleisistä kirjastoista tehtyjen tutkimusten perusteella Oulunsalon kirjasto on piirteiltään tyypillinen suomalainen kunnankirjasto.ABSTRACT

Title of thesis: Customer analysis of Oulunsalo Library
Supervisor(s): Ulla Virranniemi
Term and year when the thesis was submitted: Autumn 2012 Number of pages: 61
________________________________________
In this thesis I examine demographical variables of local population and survey the library’s services and users. Every habitant of Oulunsalo is considered as library’s target group. Library services and existing customers are assimilated on local population. Thesis is made for the library of Oulunsalo.
As research material is used statistics and documents. Majority of the material is produced by Statistics Finland and Oulunsalo municipal. Thesis contains also theme interview where the workers of the library is interviewed.
I review citizen as library user, library use and library research in the framework. I examine the history of Oulunsalo and its library briefly. Library services of new Oulu are also reviewed. In survey of culture environment I look in to lively organization and culture activities of Oulunsalo.
In report of population structure information is clarified with graphics. Library of Oulunsalo didn’t depart from other public libraries in the service and customer group survey, if compared on other research made from public libraries
Studenthälsans image : En fokusgruppundersökning om Uppsalastudenternas bild av organisationen och dess sätt att tilltala dem
No full textAbstract Title: The picture of Studenthälsan – a focus group study of the image that students in Uppsala have of the organization and of how they look at the way the organization addresses them. Studenthälsans image - en fokusgruppundersökning omUppsalastudenternas bild av organisationen och dess sätt att tilltala dem Number of pages: 65 (73 including enclosures) Author: Sofie Backman Tutor: Göran Svensson Course: Media and Communication Studies C Period: Fall 2007 University: Division of Media and Communication, Department of Information Science, Uppsala University Aim: The aim of this essay is to study the image that students in Uppsala have of Studenthälsan and its excersice department. This includes how the students perceive the organization’s way of communicating with them, both in terms of the marketing and their reception at the facilities, and what they would like to be different regarding this in the future. Method/Material: Together with literature studies, a qualitive method has been used and three focus group interviews with a total of 15 informants have been conducted. One group contained students that are customers of Studenthälsan, one group contained only students that use anther training facility, and a third group was a mixed group which combined both students training at Studentälsan and elsewhere. Main Results: The main results from the focus group interviews show that theimage of Studenthälsan varies among the students. The studentsthat use or have used the facilities are generally slightly more positive about the organization. Generally, students feel that the organization is accessible and they like the student-dominated clientele. However, the the overall opinion about Studenthälsan’s image is quite vague and the marketing material is regarded dull and often too informational. The students are mobile and do not feel loyality toward the organization as such. Studenthälsan is in need of a clear communication platform to strengthen its profile and thus further improve its image among the students. Keywords: Studenthälsan, students, image, profile, relations

Det machiavellistiska personlighetsdragets förekomst bland fastighetsmäklare: En studie med fokus på försäljningsprestationer

Method: The study is based on a quantitative research method with a deductive approach. The primary data of this study is based on a questionnaire. The participants of this questionnaire are 106 registered real estate agents in Sweden. This data was subsequently analyzed in the program jamovi, which resulted in a descriptive analysis, a correlation analysis and a factor analysis. Result & Conclusions: The result shows that the degree of Machiavellianism negatively affects the investigated real estate agents to all sales performance measures. Furthermore, the result shows that people with a high degree of Machiavellianism thinks to a greater extent that it is okay to use cap prices, front man and to withhold information, to the extent that it occurs. Generally speaking, the participating real estate agents consider that it is not okay to use cap prices, front man and to withhold information. Furthermore, the degree of Machiavellianism is relatively low among the investigated real estate agents. Contribution of the thesis: The study has contributed to understanding the occurrence of the Machiavellian personality trait among the investigated real estate brokers and how this personality trait affects their sales performance. Suggestions for future research: In order to gain a deeper understanding of Machiavellianism's influence on sales performance, it would have been interesting to compare how Machiavellianism appears in different cultures in relation to sales performance. To increase the understanding of the subject further, a proposal is to investigate how the degree of Machiavellianism appears in different sales industries. Key words: “Machiavellianism”, “the dark triad”, “real estate”, “sales performance” and “sales
Topological bijections for oriented matroids
No full textIn previous work by the first and third author with Matthew Baker, a family of bijections between bases of a regular matroid and the Jacobian group of the matroid was given. The core of the work is a geometric construction using zonotopal tilings that produces bijections between the bases of a realizable oriented matroid and the set of (σ, σ∗ )-compatible orientations with respect to some acyclic circuit (respectively, cocircuit) signature σ (respectively, σ∗). In this work, we extend this construction to general oriented matroids and circuit (respectively, cocircuit) signatures coming from generic single-element liftings (respectively, extensions). As a corollary, when both signatures are induced by the same lexicographic data, we give a new (bijective) proof of the interpretation of TM(1, 1) using orientation activity due to Gioan and Las Vergnas. Here TM(x, y) is the Tutte polynomial of the matroid.Work of S.

Investigating the causes of reading comprehension failure: the comprehension-age match design.
No full textThe reading-level (or reading-age) match design has become a widely-used tool for investigating the possible direction of the relation between particular skills and word reading ability: Cause or consequence. This paper outlines an analogous method for identifying candidate causes of reading comprehension failure, the ‘comprehension-age match design’ and discusses the strengths and limitations of this design
