The aim of this study is to investigate how preschool teachers reason about gender stereotypical and gender neutral toys and other material. I would also like to see how the pedagogues reason about gender segregation when it comes to toys. To investigate the issue, I have interviewed three pedagogues from different preschools. The results showed that the work procedures differed a bit from school to school, although they all wanted to achieve the same goal. A goal that our curriculum mention as well: Not to make a difference between boys and girls.

The purpose of this study was to find out how gender roles are described in two popular children?s detective stories, one of them written in 2002 and the other in 1946, to be able to compare the two. In order to do this, I used a qualitative research method in which I read and analyzed the text and illustrations of the books out of a gender perspective.I used gender theories describing how stereotypical gender roles are displayed, and these theories were later associated with the books I studied. I also used previous research concerning gender roles in other children's books in order to compare those results with my own.After having read, analyzed and compared the two books, I found vast resemblances between them, but also certain differences. However, it is obvious that the gender roles in both books for the most part are traditional.

Syftet med denna undersökning har varit att granska några föräldrars tankar kring genus- och jämställdhetsarbete i förskolan. Med hjälp av enkäter och intervjuer har vi samlat in vårt empiriska material. I enkätundersökningen var deltagandet lågt vilket kan tyda på ett svalt intresse för dessa frågor bland föräldrarna. Intervjupersonerna var dock av den uppfattningen att genus- och jämställdhetsarbete i förskolan är något av stor vikt. Intervjupersonerna var eniga både vad gäller den negativa inställningen till enkönade grupper i förskolan och vikten av förebilder av båda könen bland förskolans personal.

Att drabbas av cancer är en mycket genomgripande upplevelse i livet och då särskilt för unga som genomgår stora omställningar med utveckling av den egna identiteten. Denna utveckling sker i samspel med omgivningen samtidigt som de genomgår en frigörelseprocess från föräldrarna. En cancerdiagnos kan innebära att mognadsprocessen försvåras med risk för isolering i det dagliga livet från såväl närstående som nära vänner. Behovet av stöd kan därför vara omfattande för unga personer som samtidigt som de är unga är på väg in i vuxenlivet. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa vilka erfarenheter av stöd ungdomar och unga vuxna har när de genomgår behandling för cancer.

I dag föds färre barn med ryggmärgsbråck på grund av att skadan kan upptäckas med fosterdiagnostik. Kunskapen om ryggmärgbråck utanför specialistklinikerna är bristande och kommunikationsproblemen mellan vårdpersonal och föräldrar är inte ovanligt. Det symtom som mest påverkar vardagen hos den som har ryggmärgsbråck är blåsrubbning.Syftet är att beskriva upplevelser av vara förälder till ungdomar och unga vuxna födda med ryggmärgsbråck, och hur ungdomen och den unge vuxne själv upplever att leva med skadan.Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod och resultatet bygger framförallt på vetenskapliga artiklar och avhandlingar. Materialet analyserades med hjälp av Evans (2003) analysmodell. Resultatet visar att föräldrarna upplever olika sorters oro under barnets uppväxt och att det ofta förekommer brister i samarbetet mellan föräldrar och vårdpersonal.
