Uppsatsen bygger på en elev-enkät till elever från åk 1 till åk 5 och fyra strukturerade intervjuer med lärare från samma skola som eleverna.Fyra intervjupersoner har svarat på frågor som handlar om utomhuspedagogiken och hur den tillämpas. Enkätens frågor handlade om hur eleverna upplever utomhuspedagogiken.Resultatet blev att elevernas och lärarnas svar överstämmer väl sinsemellan samt med teorin. Uppsatsen visar att de flesta elever samt intervjuade lärare tycker att det är bra att arbeta med utomhuspedagogik och att det är en tillgång för alla att skolan har olika sätt att lära ut. Utom-huspedagogiken hjälper eleverna fram till kunskap från teori till praktik och sammankopplar delarna till en helhet..

Because of my interest and experience within the field of children and teenagers with an antisocial behaviour and who are acting out I wanted to devote my essay to researching these children through the perspective of the teachers. In this essay I, therefore, interviewed 4 teachers with 4-16 years of experience within this occupation. The method I've chosen can be described as qualitative interview with semi-structured questions to enable the teachers to thoroughly describe their answers without diverting from the original question. The questions that form this essay are: What strategies do the teachers possess to enable stability, a safe work environment and enabling knowledge-sharing for the children that are acting out? What kind of tools do the teachers use when they work with children who are acting out? The results were analysed through the theory of socialization, which simplified can be compared with upbringing.

Inom den anknytningsteoretiska forskningen har individers interna arbetsmodeller avseende anknytning i tidigare studier undersökts via mer medvetna metoder, såsom Adult Attachment Interview (AAI; George, Kaplan & Main 1984/1996). I ett försök att nå mer implicita och automatiska representationer utav anknytning och även omvårdnad rekryterades 78 deltagare i syfte att undersöka hur olika individers skript för trygghet i detta sammanhang ser ut i jämförelse med deras interna arbetsmodeller för anknytning och omvårdnad. Två mätinstrument i form utav ett experimentellt reaktionstidstest utvecklat för undersökningen samt en berättelsekompletteringsuppgift (Story Completion Task; Waters & Waters, 2006) användes. En rad jämförelser mätinstrumenten emellan visade på ett svagt negativt samband mellan de två mätmetoderna, vilket föreslogs förklaras utifrån en påverkan från en majoritet otrygga individer med upprepade avvisande anknytningserfarenheter som tenderade att idealisera sina anknytningsrelationer. Denna idealisering antogs resultera i en försiktighet gentemot anknytningsladdade stimuli..
