Bakgrund: Sömnen är ett av våra grundläggande behov och är viktig för vår hälsa och välbefinnande. Sömnproblem är vanligt bland äldre personer som bor på särskilt boende. Sömnproblemen behandlas ofta med sömntabletter som medför risk för exempelvis förvirring och fall.Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturstudie är att beskriva effekter av icke farmakologiska åtgärder för att minska sömnproblem bland personer som bor och vårdas på särskilt boende.Metod: Detta är en litteraturstudie där resultatet från åtta kvantitativa artiklar granskats och sammanställts. Resultatet av analysen redovisas utifrån följande sex kategorier; fysisk aktivitet, social aktivitet, ljusterapi, ändrade vårdrutiner, avslappning och kognitiv beteendeterapi.Resultat: I litteraturstudien framkom att icke farmakologiska åtgärder kan minska sömnproblem hos äldre personer på särskilt boende. Dock redovisas varierande resultat av de olika åtgärderna.

AbstractAim: The aim of this study was to investigate if treatment with ?dry needling? in myofascial triggerpoints (MTrPs) in the rotatorcuff muscles may affect impingement symptoms such as pain during provocative tests, shoulder mobility, and function. The research questions were: Does the value of pain change on the Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) between before and after treatment? Do the positive provocative tests for impingement change between before and after treatment? Does the active shoulder mobility change between before and after treatment? Does the self-rated function change between before and after treatment?Method: The study was a prospective randomized intervention study and 19 persons with impingement symptoms (mean ± standard deviation; 58 ± 18 years, and shoulder pain duration 3.9 ± 1.6 months) were randomized into two groups. The groups were tested before, directly after and 3 weeks after treatment.

Purpose of the study was to illustrate how emotional competence can be important for leadership and to explore the possibility of improving emotion perception ability after training. Participants in this study were 40 managers, divided into control and experimental group, within public administration. The participants implemented a data-based emotion perception test, which were done twice at every occasion, with intervention consisting of information or education between test- and retest. The result showed a clear improvement after intervention, in which no difference was found between control and experimental group, which has been discussed on the basis of the likelihood of a training effect occurred between test-retest. Conclusions about emotional competence or leadership ability could not be drawn from the results of the emotion perception test.

Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka hur icke traditionellt och traditionellt arbetssätt inom matematik i skolår 1 kan se ut samt ta reda på huruvida arbetssättet påverkar elevernas attityder till ämnet. För att söka svar på våra frågeställningar har vi genomfört observationer i två klasser i skolår 1 med icke traditionellt respektive traditionellt arbetssätt samt intervjuat lärarna och eleverna. Resultaten visar att icke traditionellt arbetssätt kan innebära att eleverna får undersöka och prova sig fram, ofta med hjälp av laborativt material som konkretiserar matematiken samt att eleverna får möjlighet att prata matematik. Ett traditionellt arbetssätt kan innebära att eleverna ges redan färdiga generaliseringar av läraren och/eller matematikläroboken och att de därefter får öva på att tillämpa dessa individuellt eller i grupp. Vad gäller elevernas attityder så relaterade flera av dem matematik till de aktiviteter som sker under skoldagen såsom läsa, skriva och räkna medan andra härleder matematik till matematiklektionerna och deras innehåll.

Locus of control och självkänslaEn jämförelse mellan elit- och icke elitidrottareHelén BlomstrandBesitter individen en hög inre locus of control anser denne attindividen själv är ansvarig för valen denne gör i livet, medan en högyttre locus of control innebär det motsatta. Syftet med studien varbland annat att se om elit- och icke elitidrottare skiljde sig gällandelocus of control; får elitidrottarna högre förvärvade än traitbaseradeinre attityder gällande självkänsla och locus of control, än ickeelitidrottare, har locus of control samband med självkänsla. Enenkätundersökning genomfördes på 82 idrottare varav 42elitidrottare. Resultatet visade att elitidrottarna uppvisade signifikanthögre resultat gällande inre locus of control än icke elitidrottarnasamt att det fanns könsskillnader då männen uppvisade högre värdengällande en inre work locus of control. Resultatet indikerar även attbassjälvkänsla har ett positivt samband med locus of control.Diskussionen fördes kring om en högre inre locus of control ledertill bättre idrottsliga resultat samt kritisk granskning av gällandeuppsats.Keywords: locus of control, external and internal, athletes, self-esteem.

Denna studie handlar om icke-heterosexuella* ungdomars upplevelser av mobbning i skolan p.g.a. deras sexuella läggning och ungdomarnas upplevelser om vad som görs av lärarna för att motverka denna mobbning. Studien genomfördes i två delar: förstudie och huvudstudie. I förstudien studerades lärarestuderandes åsikter om utbildningen som de får om mobbningen av icke-heterosexuella elever i skolan på lärareprogrammet. I förstudie medverkade 11 lärarestuderande, alla var kvinnor.

Koronarangiografi används för att visualisera hjärtats kranskärl och diagnostisera eventuella kranskärlsjukdomar. I samband med undersökningen kan en perkutan koronar intervention (PCI) utföras som behandling. Denna undersökning kan orsaka ångest och rädsla hos patienterna, vilket kan ge fysiska symtom såsom ökad hjärtrytm och blodtryck som kan påverka undersökningen och en eventuell intervention negativt. Vid undersökningen har röntgensjuksköterskan främsta ansvaret för omvårdnaden. För att kunna ge mest optimal omvårdnad till patienterna ska röntgensjuksköterskan ha kunskap om bakomliggande orsaker till ångest och rädsla relaterade till koronarangiografi.

No-fly Zones have been used in three recent conflicts. For every intervention the time taken to achieve the end-state has decreased. It took twelve years in Iraq, three years in Bosnia and only nine months in Libya. NATO was part of the intervention in both Bosnia and Libya, facing almost the same size of opponent, but it took them four times longer to achieve the end-state in Bosnia compared to Libya. The purpose of this essay is to analyze this difference in the time taken to achieve the end-state with a structured focused comparison of Bosnia and Libya based on Robert Pape´s theory of coercion with a focus on No-fly Zones. The results show that the mandate can explain the difference. In Libya NATO had the opportunity, due to the mandate, to use pre-emptive strikes, which they did not have in Bosnia.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka förekomsten av icke-västerländska texter i svenskundervisningen på en gymnasieskola i Norrbotten, samt att ta reda på hur fyra svensk-lärare resonerar kring sina litteraturval i förhållande till styrdokumenten, kanontanken och den icke-västerländska litteraturens plats i svenskämnet. Uppsatsen baseras på kvalitativa intervjuer med lärare från olika bakgrunder. Vårt resultat visar att våra informanter ser olika på svenskämnets huvudsyfte och att detta påverkar deras undervisning, men inte i någon större utsträckning deras litteraturval och att icke-västerländska texter däri är underrepresenterade. Slutsatsen som följer är att det för våra informanter inte finns några direkta officiella krav från styrdokumenten att använda sig av icke- västerländsk litteratur, inte heller några uppenbara vinster utifrån de informella strukturerna - alltså det som kan karaktäriseras som skolkulturen, lärarkollegiet och den enskilde lärarens utbildning och intressen. Lärares litteraturval i förhållande till kanontanken är därmed, som vi velat påvisa, ett komplext och mångfacetterat system som av förklarliga skäl tar tid att förändra..
