Intensivvårdssjuksköterskor uttrycker upplevelser av moralisk stress i det dagliga arbetet och detta kan leda till utbrändhet eller behov av att byta yrke då de inte lyckas bemästra sin situation. Studiens syfte var att kartlägga moralisk stress hos intensivvårdssjuksköterskor med hjälp av Moral Distress Scale(MDS). Studien utfördes med en deskreptiv metod av tvärsnittsdesign där 45 sjusköterskor med intensivvårdsutbildning i västsverige tillfrågades att vid ett tillfälle besvara en enkät med en validerad svensköversatt MDS. Resultatet påvisade att det finns signifikant höga nivåer av moralisk stress hos intensivvårdssjuksköterskor yngre än 45 år(p=0,044) och även i gruppen med kandidat/-magisterexamen(p=0,003). De högsta nivåerna av moralisk stress kunde uppmätas när intensivvårdssjuksköterskorna ställdes inför situationer där de upplevde att ingen var beredd att fatta beslut om att avsluta livsuppehållande behandling.

The area of Järvafältet in the northern parts of Stockholm is one of the many large-scale investments into Swedish residency executed in the 60?s and 70?s, and which got the name Miljonprogrammet.

I och med att stress är ett aktuellt ämne ville vi med detta examensarbete ta reda på vad som gör barn stressade. Eftersom vi är blivande lärare ville vi fokusera på negativ stress för barn i skolan. Vårt syfte med denna undersökning var att ta reda på vad några barn uppfattar som stress och vad som gör dem stressade i skolan. Vi valde att ha fyra återkommande temarubriker i vårt arbete: sociala relationer, schemaläggning, lektionsupplägg och den fysiska miljön för att lättare kunna koppla ihop litteratur med resultatet av vår undersökning. Vi har tagit del av litteratur för att ta reda på orsaker och konsekvenser av stress hos framförallt barn.
