Föreliggande arbete utgör en delstudie i projektet Automatiserad telefonuppföljning inom Kriminalvården. Projektets övergripande syfte var att undersöka tillämpbarheten av Interactive Voice Response (IVR) som en modern metod för utvärdering, övervakning och påverkan av intagna som blivit villkorligt frigivna från ett fängelsestraff. IVR är en metodik baserat på automatiserade telefonintervjuer som bl. a innebär att en dator har programmerats för att ringa upp, ställa frågor, registrera svar och ge feedback till klienterna. I tidigare publikation från projektet undersöktes med hjälp av automatiserade telefonuppföljningar (IVR) hur stress och mående samt användande av alkohol och droger utvecklas under de trettio första dagarna efter avslutad anstaltsvistelse (Andersson et al, 2011).

Background: This paper was performed by a student in the Public Health Sciences program at the University of Gothenburg as a mandate from the district administration (SDF) Askim-Frölunda-Högsbo in Gothenburg.

The family center will be located in the Frölunda area.Aim: The purpose of this paper was to describe and deepen the understanding of the concept of a family center from a public health perspective. A particular focus was put on interventions that are aimed at children aged 6-12 years.Method: Walker and Avants (2011) model for concept analysisResults: The defined attributes that the analysis led to were the following: Collaboration, Health Promotion, Prevention and Support services and the Visitors.

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur proffessionstillhörighet och antal copingstrategier respondenterna använder, påverkar skattad stress samt att studera hur arbetsfaktorer påverkar skattad stress. Totalt 84 personer, inom samma organisation, fördelade över två avdelningar med olika arbetsuppgifter - besvarade en enkätundersökning, om stress, coping och arbetsfaktorer. Resultatet av undersökningen visar på en tendens att de respondenter som använder sig av ett fåtal copingstrategier har en lägre skattad stressnivå, (borderline-signifikans), samt att avdelning inte påverkar antalet använda copingstrategier (dvs. ingen interaktionseffekt mellan antalet använda copingstrategier och avdelning). Resultatet visar även att arbetsfaktorerna, vilka delades upp i fyra kategorier; otydlig organisation och konflikter, individuella krav och engagemang, inflytande på arbetet samt konflikt mellan arbete och fritid, predicerar den skattade stressnivån och speciellt individuella krav och engagemang var den kategori som påverkade den skattade stressnivån.Nyckelord:.

In connection with riding and handling of horses, many accidents that can cause severe injuries to both horses and humans are existent. The cause is in most cases that the horse is frightened. The horse's fear also affects its usefulness and it has been shown to have adverse effects on the horse's welfare.

This experimental study compares handled habituation to free habituation.

This essay seeks to articulate how one should understand Adorno´s perspective on Kant. The essay produces an interpretation of this very complicated relationship using the (Nietzschean) concepts "affinity" and "ressentiment" : an elucidation that will hopefully make clear that the works of Adorno in many ways constitute a pursuance of Kant´s philosophical insights to their logical ends, especially with the regard to the questions about the purpose of philosophy and its various demands on knowledge, personality, society, ways of ressistence etc..

Bakgrund: Vårdpersonal inom psykiatrisk verksamhet kan ha svårigheter att förhålla sig till personer med borderline personlighetsstörning (BPS) eftersom BPS är en emotionell instabil personlighetsstörning där humöret är oberäkneligt, handlingarna impulsiva och beteendet konfliktsökande. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskor såväl som annan vårdpersonals erfarenheter och attityder till personer med BPS inom psykiatrisk verksamhet. Metod: Utifrån syftet gjordes en litteraturstudie baserad på vetenskapliga artiklar från olika databaser. Analys av artiklarna innebar att varje artikels resultatdel lyftes fram för att finna likheter, skillnader och bärande rubriker. Resultat: Resultatet visade att en stor del av vårdpersonalen hade negativa erfarenheter och attityder till personer med BPS, vilket främst berodde på för lite kunskap om denna patientgrupp.

Individuella skillnader i empati, att kunna sätta sig in i någon annans situation och förstå vad en annan person känner, har studerats i tidigare forskning. En aspekt som visat skillnader angående personlighet men bristande belysts i samband med empati är syskonposition; om man är endabarnet, yngsta, mellan eller äldstabarnet. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka huruvida syskonpositionen har betydelse för den empatiska förmågan.  Deltagarna var nittiosex studenter och tjänstemän som läste en historia och därefter fyllde i en empatiskala om vilka känslor de kände för personen i historien.
