Stressrelaterad ohälsa har ökat kraftigt i många länder över hela världen, och är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till långtidssjukskrivningar. Det finns många faktorer som påverkat denna ökning, och en stor bidragande orsak är ökade krav i både arbetslivet och privatlivet. Vid stressrelaterad ohälsa används bland annat mental träning som behandlingsmetod, då studier visar att mental träning kan främja den psykiska hälsan och motverka stress. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka upplevelsen av mental träning som behandlingsmetod hos en grupp personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa. En frågeställning var även vilka bakomliggande orsaker till stressrelaterad ohälsa som intervjupersonerna beskriver.

The thesis has investigated how Sandvik Coromant could implement the SMED principle on one of their grinders groups and what improvements it would lead to. The aim of the thesis is to identify the current situation and investigate how their setup times would be affected by SMED. The work initiated with a literature analysis about the SMED principles and then proceeded with an analysis of the current situation where the activity was time mapped. The analysis consisted of time trials of the process that the thesis would include. The time studies revealed opportunities for structural improvements to create environment for a more structured process.

AimThe aim with this study was to acquire knowledge of mental training and if you can use it in the elementary school to increase in a short period of time the performance in a coordination test. Furthermore we wanted to investigate teachers understanding of the possibilities to perform this kind of training in the elementary school, and if there is support for this in the school regulation.MethodAs method we have used a combination of a literature pre-study, interview and at the end an experiment. Before the experiment and interviews could take place we studied literature about mental training to get a basic knowledge of the subject. The facts we learned from our pre-study and interviews gave us the base for our experiment. The experiment group included 23 pupils in a third class at school situated in Stockholm.

The purpose of this study was to examine the school counsellors and social service workers experience of how the child psychiatry manage their authority in the collaboration concerning children with mental health problems. The study was conducted using qualitative interviews with school counsellors, social service workers and one former employee of the Swedish child psychiatric care. Our results are divided into two themes: Collaboration and distribution of responsibility and Children who fall between the cracks. Examples of groups of children who according to our study are at risk of falling between the cracks are those who apart from mental issues have substance abuse issues or social issues, those whose parents are in a child custody dispute, children who are acting out and children with self-harm issues. The study also reveals that it's easier for children whose parents are active and knowledgeable to get help from the child psychiatric care and that it's a requirement for both parents and children to be highly motivated.There are established social hierarchs between agencies who partake in collaboration regarding children with mental illness.

This Masters thesis work describes a comparison between two different methods for estimation of the down channel (base station to mobile subscriber) in Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA). The first estimation method, Optimal Feed-forward Channel Estimation (OFCE), is a conventional method that bases the estimates on data that is known to both sender and receiver, so called pilots. The second method, Decision Directed Channel Estimation (DDCE), is an elaboration of OFCE. It also uses user data for estimation. Simulations show that DDCE, in comparison to OFCE, does not attain an improvement in signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) for high bit error rates (BER).

I dagsläget finns det inga psykometriska instrument som är specifikt anpassade för kampsportsutövare och de psykologiska krav som ställs under en tävlingssituation. Syftet med denna studie var att utveckla ett användarvänligt psykometriskt instrument för kampsportsutövare baserat på en substantiv teori kring begreppet påtvinga vilja och det teoretiska ramverket kring mental tuffhet. I studien deltog 216 utövare från olika kampsporter med olika erfarenhetsnivå. Data samlades in med hjälp av ett internetbaserat formulär som därefter behandlades med explorativ faktoranalys. Resultatet av processen utmynnade i ett psykometriskt instrument med god validitet och hög reliabilitet som mäter mental tuffhet och därmed förmåga att påtvinga vilja.

SYFTE: Jag har i mitt yrke erfarit att många elever upplever skolan som stressande. Studier stöder denna iakttagelse och visar att för många tonåringar är skolan den i särklass största stressfaktorn. Vidare ökar stressrelaterade sjukdomar bland vuxna kraftigt. Detta gav mig en ide att inom skolans ram försöka agera preventivt och inspirerad av coachning och kognitiv beteendeterapi satte jag samman en kurs. Här undersökte jag huruvida träning i mental kompetens; kunskap om kroppens känslosystem, språk för känslor, stresshantering och problemlösningsstrategier, skulle kunna ge elever större känsla av beredskap för att hantera livet i ett modern komplext samhälle och därmed en högre livskvalitet.
