This study aims to provide a picture of how fathers and mothers are produced in judgments regarding child custody and to investigate if any of the parties is aggrieved because of their gender. The material consists of six legal cases. The study is based on gender theory and social construction. It represents a qualitative method where we have used text analysis. The previous research is contradictory as on one hand it shows that there are different criteria related to the parents' gender when it comes to caring for children in both child welfare investigations and the courts.

The aim of this study is to see if the individual developing plans (i.e. individuella utvecklingsplaner) can be used as a tool for the special needs teacher (i.e. specialpedagog) to develop the school in its challenge to meet the needs of every child.  The study is based on contentanalycis and interviews, in order to understand how one school worked with the students´ individual developing plans.The results showed that the school did not use the plans as a tool to develop the education for each and every child, since the plans didn´t affect the tuition.The headmaster did not include the special needs teacher in the responsibility of developing the school.Even though our results showed that the school didn´t use the individual developing plans as a tool for the special educator to develop the school, we still found a possibility for developing the individual educational plans in the capacity of the special needs teacher. The study showed a need of dialogue in which teachers can reflect and problematize their actions and their teaching for the purpose of developing new understanding and new actions in the work with the individual educational plans. We believe that the profession of special needs teacher should supervise these dialogues..

Bakgrund: I Sverige drabbas varje år runt 300 barn av cancer. Det är inte endast barnet som drabbas utan alla i familjen berörs av den förändrade situationen. Syskonen blir rädda, känner sig oroliga över situationen och en otrygghet infinner sig. De får stå utanför och glöms lätt bort. Sjuksköterskan bör arbeta familjefokuserat och inkludera hela familjen i vården av det sjuka barnet, där delaktighet är en viktig del.

My purpose with this paper related to my questions was to find out how professionals preeschool teachers working on multilingualism. I also wanted to get answers on how pedagogues in the preeschool may promote multilingual children´s language development, the factors that promote multilingual children´s language development and the role parents have in the language development of multilingual children. I chose to do my study in the form of interviews with professional preeschool teachers and interviewees described including the need for more knowledge of pedagogues around multilingualism. My result based on theoretichal background and the study is that pedagogues should let the children´s all languages esemble together. A factor influencing the multilingual children´s language development is ambient attitudes to multilingualism.

Cancer är en stor folksjukdom och det är därför av yttersta vikt att veta hur en god omvårdnad ska tillämpas och hur patienterna ska kunna bemötas under den tid de genomgår behandling med cytostatika. Många patienter som lider av cancer behandlas med cytostatika. Cytostatikabehandling ger olika biverkningar som bland annat kan försämra patientens livskvalitet, såväl fysiskt som psykiskt. Studiens syfte var att belysa patienters upplevelser under den tid de genomgår cytostatikabehandling. Metoden är en kvalitativ litteraturstudie baserad på två självbiografiska böcker.

To explore how children use dialect, and whether the dialectal language develops during growth might be of interest from a speech language pathologist?s point of view as the dialect could influence the child?s speech. Previous research is often based on older material and/or examines the speech of adults.  In the present study, everyday language in groups of south- eastern Swedish speaking children was investigated. The aim of the present study was to examine to what extent typically developed children of the ages of  5, 8 and 11 years use dialectal language. A further purpose was to discover which dialectal characteristics that were present in the different age groups, and how they differed.

The main purpose of this study was to examine how preschool teachers are working to promote each child's language development and whether they can ensure that they do that. Therefore I wanted to find out what a good language development implies for each teacher, how they work to promote each child's language development in daily practice, how they measure the actual language development and also what conditions the teachers have, to engage in a language development way to work. For the study, I chose a qualitative method, with structured interviews and all together I interviewed six preschool teachers, within the same organization in a suburb close to Stockholm.  The results showed that there is an ambiguity, among the preschool teachers, in what a good language development means, but it can be stated that they do have a language development way to work even if it needs to be developed. Further on, it has emerged that the teachers have the tools to measure children's language development, although they do not have the conditions yet to use the method to the fullest. About the preschool teachers own conditions in order to operate in a language development way to work, I concluded that they have a strong foundation to build on, but they still have much work ahead of them.

Cancer är en sjukdom som på många sätt påverkar människors dagliga liv. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva människors upplevelse av att leva med smärta vid cancersjukdom. 15 vetenskapliga artiklar som motsvarade syftet har studerats och analyserats med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Analysen resulterade i sju kategorier som ger en beskrivning av människors upplevelser av att leva med cancersmärta. Resultatet visar att dessa människor upplevde känslor av sorg.

The aim of this study is to, from a child?s family relations, describe the usage of terms relating to factors of risk and safety in science and in investigations concerning children in need of protection. It is also of importance in what way the terms are used when the Social Services suggest that measures should be taken, and in which way the children have been heard in the investigations.The issues raised in this study are: (a) How is the current life situation and life quality of the children discussed? (b) The value of factors concerning risks and protection. (c) How is the children?s own descriptions taken in to consideration? (d) Is gender issues considered? (e) How is Lagerberg?s model (Lagerberg, 1998) useful in investigations?The method of analysis is mainly qualitative however it is combined with analysis of literature relevant to the study.

Our study has its starting point in the Swedish social legislation (Socialtjänstlagen) and more specifically in the 6th chapter's 5th paragraph. That paragraph regulates that social workers should try to find a kinship care placement when they are about to do a placement of a child. Our purpose is to examine how social workers, before they do a placement of a child, understand the informal kinship that is not relatives, if they consider the informal kinship and if certain circumstances have an impact on the consideration. To get this information we have done five interviews with social workers. Recent studies show that social workers in past years have begun to think more positively of people's kinships and that they more often use the resources of the kinship.

Långvarig smärta är vanlig hos befolkningen och upp till 30-50 % har smärta av någon form. Av dessa är 10% direkt relaterade till cancer. Trots god att medicinsk vård finns tillgänglig kan brister i bemötandet från vårdpersonalen resultera i att patienter känner sig otillfredsställda. Syftet med den här studien var att belysa vilka faktorer patienten uppfattade som viktiga vid vårdpersonalens bemötande i samband med cancerrelaterad smärta. Studien utfördes som en litteraturstudie och Travelbees vårdteori låg som värdegrund.
