The purpose of this study was to within a Swedish context and from five persons of foreign descent stories study how they have been affected by interpreting for their parents during their childhood and how this has affected the relationships within the family. Studies conducted in an American context have shown that children interpreting for their parents in everyday situations are prone to undertake roles similar of a family leader. Previous studies also show an increased danger of depression among children who interpreted for their parents. The study was conducted by the use of semi-structured interviews with five male respondents with a varying ethnic background. Using Antonovsky´s theoretical formulation ?sense of coherence? we were able to determine that although our respondents during their childhood were subjected to a large amount of stressful elements they also maintained a high sense of well-being.

Psykoprofylax betyder förebygga på latin. I detta sammanhang innebär det att förbereda sig fysiskt och psykiskt på den kommande förlossningen. Tidigare forskning i ämnet är begränsad. De studier som finns visar att andning och avslappning samt ändring av kroppsläge är tekniker som används mest frekvent under förlossning. Psykoprofylax användes mycket under 1970-80-talet för att sedan nästan helt försvinna från förlossningsvården men på senare tid har intresset för tekniken ökat och den har börjat användas igen.Annas profylax är en ny metod som bygger på fyra hörnstenar.

The focus of this study is on the nature of social support from the rape survivor's perspective. Research has shown that social support is essential to the survivor's ability to recover from rape and that it acts as a powerful tool for the survivor to effectively deal with the PTSD symptoms that follow rape. The research also shows that survivors often receive or interpret reactions after a rape as negative. Hence, these reactions can be detrimental tothe healing process.Qualitative interviews with six women on their experience of social support after rape form the base of this study and Anthony Giddens terms ontological security, fateful moments and bodily self-management are a part of the analytical apparatus. Rape is commonly analyzed from a feminist perspective.

Since the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) was adopted in 1979 there has been evident progress in the area of women's rights in great parts of the world, although this progress is still foremost concentrated to the Westernhemisphere. In Argentina, the work with gender equality and women's rights set of strongly during the last decade. The country has ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and the Inter-American Convention on the Prevention, Punishmentand Eradication of Violence against Women "Convention of Belem Do Para" but still women and girls are victims of structural discrimination and serious impunity of their rights on a daily basis.The current situation proves that the positive changes within the context of international and national law do not necessary reach out to the population to the same extent. In the light of the lacking popular involvement and knowledge of their rights, a different type of solution is desirable. Therefore it would be of interest to examinate the role of Non Governmental Organisations (NGO:s) when it comes to implementing human rights in the society and ?the every day life?.

Denna kandidatuppsats analyserar hur den svenskkyrkliga självförståelsen ser ut inom Guds hus-projektet i Nacka församling utifrån ett religionsteologiskt perspektiv. Användandet av en empirisk teoretisk modell nämligen ?4 voices of theology? framtagen av Action Research ? Church & Society (ARCS) i Storbritannien har gjort det möjligt att beskriva hur den svenskkyrkliga självförståelsen ser ut inom Guds hus-projektet och hur denna självförståelse påverkar den religionsteologi som förmedlas ur ett svenskkyrkligt perspektiv. Genom att använda den empirisk teoretiska modellen bestående av fyra olika aspekter av teologi; adopterad, normativ, formell och operativ teologi har bilden av den svenskkyrkliga självförståelsen blivit tydligare. Den empiriska teorin har sedan ställts mot ett material från gruppintervjuer där företrädare för Nacka församling involverade i Guds hus-projektet; både anställda och förtroendevalda har blivit intervjuade utifrån frågeställningar som berör den svenskkyrkliga självförståelsen av Guds hus-projektet och religionsteologi. Efter att ha analyserat materialet är slutsatsen att Guds hus-projektet religionsteologi i synnerhet är en kontextuell och erfarenhetsgrundad religionsteologi. Guds hus-projektet har lett fram mot Diapraxis, vilket innebär att religionsteologin har omvandlats och blivit praktik. Församlingens företrädare uttrycker själva att vad man gör inom Guds hus-projektet är att vilja ta ett steg bortom religionsteologin till vad man själva beskriver som en ?uppenbarelseteologi? eller ?kärleksbudets teologi?. Begränsningarna i analysen är att den enbart baseras på företrädare från Svenska kyrkan, Nacka församling, vilket är ett av de tre samfund som Guds hus-projektet utgör.

The aim of this thesis was to look to the organization of people through social media and the Internet. Our study was conducted with a current event in focus. We began our study by examine the protests that had arisen as a result of that the American proposed law called "Stop Online Piracy Act" (SOPA)was presented. With our main focus on SOPA we began to investigate those discussions and debates that during a limited period of time were conducted on a large social news site, Reddit.com, which is a form of social media. We focused on the way that people expressed themselves over social mediawhen it comes to political issues and also whether or not Internet activism can have an effect in the society.

This study was a qualitative analysis of the covers of six lifestyle magazines, three addressed to women and three addressed to men. We have studied the cover photographs, the teasers and their relations. The purpose of this study was to answer the questions: According to the magazines, what are male interests and what are typical female interests? Who is the ideal man and who is the ideal woman? Is there a certain way you need to look to be able to be on a magazine cover? And how often do the magazines encourage you to consume? The study was based on thirty covers, five from each magazine. The Swedish magazines are VeckoRevyn, Amelia, Damernas Värld, King of Sweden, Café and the American version of GQ. We?ve used semiotics and rhetorical methods to analyze the material.

The Library of Uppsala University has decided to change their classification system from the Swedish SAB system to the American Dewey Decimal Classification. One of the main reasons for this decison was that Kungliga biblioteket also has made an exchange between these systems. Due to that, the national bibliography of Sweden classifies Swedish documents according to Dewey Decimal Classification and the SAB system is no longer maintained. A transition to Dewey Decimal Classification will enable Swedish librarians to import foreign catalouge posts and classification codes and will provide them with a common standard between their libraries and other libraries due to the use of the same international classification system. It is disputed whether the Dewey Decimal Classification is equally suitable for all subjects.

Med åldern ökar risken att insjukna i demenssjukdom. En ökad utmaning för vården är att identifiera smärta hos personer med demens. Smärta kan vara svårt att identifiera hos personer med demens eftersom dessa personer har svårare att uttrycka sig. Syftet i denna studie var att sammanställa befintlig kunskap om identifiering och bedömning av smärta hos personer med demens. Litteraturstudien var en integrerad kunskapsöversikt och genom en systematisk sökning valdes både kvantitativa och kvalitativa ut för att ingå i analysen.
