The aim of this study was to investigate and gain a deeper understanding of how the staff at the youth clinic approaches, and might influence, participation and responsibility as regards the girl and boy respectively in the process that follows when an unplanned pregnancy has been verified. Qualitative interviews were carried out with staff at five youth clinics in Skåne. All staff did routinely work with girls and boys that were involved in an unplanned pregnancy. The theoretical starting point of the study was a gender perspective involving feministic gender theory and masculinity theory. The main questions were: How does the staff at the youth clinic view the responsibility distribution between the girl and the boy involved in an unplanned pregnancy, and how does the staff explain this distribution? Are there any guidelines to how the boy and girl should be approached, and in this way ensuring that they both feel involved in the unplanned pregnancy and its consequences? How does the youth clinic staff view and discuss a gender perspective in relation to their work? The result of the study showed that at four of the clinics a difference was evident in the staffs´ views as regards participation and responsibility in the unplanned pregnancy of the boy and girl respectively.

Standardsystem görs idag för att passa de flesta verksamheter, och ses i de flesta fall som det naturliga valet vid införskaffandet av ett nytt IT-system. Skillnaderna i att skaffa ett standardsystem i förhållande till ett skräddarsytt system är stora. Processen börjar med att välja system och själva utvecklingen består av att anpassa systemet. Vid en första anblick kan det se ut att vara en lätt, snabb och billig process men det visar sig oftast vara en komplex, tidsödande och dyr process som leder till leverantörsberoende. Uppsatsens syfte är därför att närmare undersöka vilka anpassningsrelaterade problem och förhållanden det är som gör att ett standardsystem inte fullt ut lever upp till kundens krav i samband med införande och underhåll av systemet.
