This study was made to examine what the Fountain house can do to help their members and how the members feel about their situation and their ability to participate in their rehabilitation. To do so we contacted one of the Fountain houses in Sweden, located in Falkenberg, to get a better view of what their members thought about the process. Our main purpose with this study was to turn the spotlight on what the Fountain house organization means to its members. To do so we had two main questions that we wanted to examine more closely:?How do the members experience the Fountain house organization? ? To which extend do the members feel that they are allowed to participate in their rehabilitation? ? How much influence do the members feel that they have?

Studiens syfte är att utreda om och i så fall hur etniskt mångfald påverkar innovationsförloppet på en dagstidning. Vi valde att använda oss av en kvalitativ metod med en abduktiv ansats utifrån vilka vi utförde nio semistrukturerade intervjuer. Som verktyg för vårt syfte användes Sydsvenskan som fallföretag, i strävan efter att kunna generalisera resultatet på branschen.Vi har använt oss av innovationsteorier för att förklara synen på innovationsförloppet, samt mångfaldsteorier för att teoretiskt kartlägga hur mångfald påverkar olika konstellationer av människor. Det empiriska materialet består av intervjuer med anställda på olika befattningar inom fallföretaget samt externa fackmän inom ämnet innovation och mångfald. Resultaten visar på vikten av etnisk mångfald på en dagstidning, där den interna mångfalden tillhandahåller den externa mångfalden med en verklighetsbaserad och innovativ tidning.

Syftet med det här arbetet var att ta reda på vad jag som lärare kan lyfta fram i exempeltexten The Old Man and the Sea för att främja elevers förmåga att tolka innehållet i en text. Detta har jag framfört i en analys av romanen med hjälp av Peter J. Rabinowitz teori om konventionella regler i hans bok Before Reading (1997) genom att tydliggöra hur romanen kan förstås med hjälp av de konventioner som Hemingway såväl som hans läsare har att förhålla sig till. Vad jag visat är hur dessa konventioner som jag framlagt i analysen, till exempel avvikande detaljer i texten, förhåller sig till ett mera litterärt kompetent sätt att tolka genom att koppla dem till Örjan Torells (2002) teoretiska modell för litterär kompetens..

Based on hermeneutic tradition, the goal of this thesis is to further my understanding of what the concept of resistance means in a psychoanalytical context today, primarily within clinical practice. My methodology has been to seek an understanding of the concept of resistance by reading excerpts from the original texts of Sigmund Freud, as well as conducting interviews with practicing psychoanalysts that focus on how they relate to the notion of resistance. The idea was to then present my understanding of these sources in relation to one another. The results suggest that an understanding of the concept of resistance in a clinical context is highlighted by a dichotomy between theory and practice..
