Motivation, engagemang och delaktighet bland medarbetare är viktiga faktorer i organisationers ekonomiska framgång och överlevnad på marknaden. Huvudsyftet med denna studie var att undersöka om det fanns skillnader i inre motivation och delaktighet utifrån grad av tillfredsställelse av de tre grundläggande psykologiska behoven mellan organisationens olika yrkeskategorier. Vidare syften var att undersöka om ohälsa kan prediceras med grad av inre motivation samt om det fanns skillnader i skattningarna av delaktighet på arbetsplatsen och inom organisationen. En web-baserad enkät skickades ut till samtliga 914 medarbetare i organisationen och 205 valde att delta. Resultaten visade att det inte fanns någon skillnad i tillfredsställelse av de grundläggande psykologiska behoven kopplat till yrkeskategorier samt att medarbetarnas inre motivation kunde användas som prediktor för deras självskattade ohälsa.

The study examines what affects loyal football supporter?s intentions to an array of behaviors that can generate revenues to the football clubs. Specifically the study shows that attitude towards the club affects the supporter?s intentions towards consuming products and services that in some way are related to the favorite club stronger than the satisfaction with the club.

The payment for produced grain is constantly going down in price. It is important for farmers to become more effective in cultivating more land in a shorter time perspective. At the same time we have to calculate with the risk of getting lowered subsidies from the EU. This is why I would like to find out the possibilities for establishing winter wheat without ploughing. I hope to find a difference in the number of plants due to different soil preparations. With this experiment I expect to find out whether I can establish winter wheat at a lower cost, with the same numbers of plants per square meter.

Background: Surgical complications has been the main cause of medical injuries and deaths worldwide. In 2008 WHO developed the checklist for safe surgery to reduce the number of surgical complications. The objective of the checklist is to strengthen already established safety routines and contribute to better cooperation and communication. Research shows that compliance to the checklist is deficient, which can affect patient safety.Aim: The aim was to study the extent to which theatre nurses participate in the use of the checklist.Method: Observational study was conducted with a descriptive design and quantitative approach. 24 observations were carried out with aid of an observation protocol of two surgical units at a hospital in central Sweden.Result: The results showed that Timeout initiated widely but compliance to all items was considerably lower.

Studien genomfördes i syfte att undersöka vad som driver en människa att arbeta mot en låg eller ingen monetär belöning. Det teoretiska ramverket Self- Determination Theory möjliggör kategorisering av en individs motivation i såväl inre som yttre motivation och även att mäta graden av motivation. Tidigare studier på området har indikerat att individer kan välja yrken med låg lön tack vare inre motivationsfaktorer. Denna studie ämnar fylla ett forskningsgap i redogörelsen för huruvida yttre motivationsfaktorer som social bekräftelse och kändisskap kan driva personer till att arbeta mot en låg monetär ersättning. Datainsamlingen skedde genom besöksintervjuer med människor som arbetar som fotomodell.

Background: Sleeping is a condition that is necessary for all people because the body isgiven time to recover.

Denna litteraturstudie har som syfte att undersöka hur lärare kan påverka sina elevers motivation positivt. Detta sker utifrån tre huvudfrågor som berör det sociala klimatet i klassrummet, kontakten mellan lärare och elev och lärarens entusiasm för det egna ämnet. Eftersom motivation är ett mycket komplext begrepp är inte avsikten att ge allomfattande förklaringar, utan snarare att genom ett granskande av relevant litteratur, i form av vetenskapliga artiklar, nå förslag på konkreta strategier som lärare kan och bör använda sig av i klassrummet för att öka elevernas motivation. Av studien framgår en skillnad mellan artiklarna vad gäller främst inre och yttre motivation, där inre motivation bör eftersträvas, eftersom den innebär att elever lär sig för utveckla sig själva och sina kunskaper. Ur resultaten framgår att lärare bör sträva efter ett klassrumsklimat som stödjer elevers självständighet, bl.a. genom att lyssna på eleverna och visa dem respekt.

AbstractThis study deals with motivation as an overall concept, from a student perspective. It encompasses factors that could directly affect students and their positive or negative motivation, concepts such as relationships, communication, expectations and interactions and their importance to my informants.The study also discusses certain theories to show the different ways of defining motivation, specifically in relation to my informants and their and my conclusions. My ambition is to establish the importance of the concepts mentioned above, as well as perspective changes to the enhancement of the performance standards of a good teacher.The purpose of this work is to describe, understand and clarify the external and internal factors that affect motivation. In order to achieve this purpose, I chose to use a method of qualitative interviews with three students, with different backgrounds, schools and conditions but with a lack of motivation as a unifying characteristic. The research questions were as follows:What factors influence students' motivation?   What impact do achievement targets have in relation to the pupils? own motivation to learn?How important are teachers' expectations for the individual student's motivation?Within this study sub-concepts such as importance of expectations, relationships, and significant others are, according to my analysis, of great importance.

Antal individer som söker sig till vidareutbildning på akademisk nivå har ökat under den senaste finanskrisen. Studier på landets lärosäten är oftast en mångårig process och kräver både motivation och tro på egen förmåga. Deltagarna i denna studie kommer från olika högskolor och studieinriktningar och har i många fall lämnat en trygg inkomstkälla i valet att vidareutbilda sig. För att undersöka betydelsen av en individs arbetslivserfarenhets i valet av utbildning användes mätinstrumentet AMS för att mäta motivation och GSE för att mäta grad av self-efficacy. Resultatet visade att det föreligger en statistisk signifikant skillnad på arbetslivserfarenhet och grad av self-efficacy samt att individer som saknar arbetslivserfarenhet upplever mer amotivation gentemot sina studier.

Syftet med den här studien var att ta reda på vilka variabler som relaterar till och som kan predicera inre/yttre motivation och engagemang hos lagerarbetare och säljare på samma företag. Ytterligare ett syfte var att ta reda på om det fanns någon skillnad mellan de båda grupperna gällande motivation och engagemang. En enkät utfördes och svarsfrekvensen var 57 %. Frågeformuläret innehöll följande variabler rolltydlighet, rollkonflikt, arbetskrav, positiv ut-maning i arbetet, kontroll av beslut, kontroll av arbetstakt, skicklighet, socialt klimat, personalinriktning, inre/yttre motivation och engagemang. Resultatet visade att arbetskrav och positiv utmaning i arbetet korrelerade med inre motivation.
