Syftet med denna studie var att beskriva partnerns upplevelser att leva med en kvinna som fått bröstcancer. I litteraturstudien analyserades elva vetenskapliga studier med ett inifrånperspektiv, vilket resulterade i fyra kategorier: Att uppleva förändringar på sexualitet, intimitet och kommunikation; Att uppleva förändrad rollfördelning i hemmet; Att uppleva stöd från religion, omgivningen och att vara ett stöd för sin hustru; Att känna frustration, förtvivlan och oro inför framtiden. Resultatet visade att partnern upplevde förändringar i sin relation, framförallt i kommunikationen med sin hustru och i sexualiteten. Resultatet visade också på att partnern behöver stöd från vänner och familj. En slutats visar på att det inte bara kvinnan som behöver stöd och hjälp under sjukdomstiden utan också deras partner.

This case-study examines the correlation between young men and democratic instability in group discussions with two analyzing methods in one. One part of the method used is deliberative democracy which aims to explain how democracy works within the frames of discussion in ordinary citizens groups. In this study the citizens is upper level secondary school students. The other part of the method used is the theory pulled by many scholars lately, the demographic impact on democracy. With these two combined in one this study compare the theory of young men as more active in political violence and as a destabilising factor of democracy on country-level with the results of the study in deliberative democracy in small group discussions.

Ökad globalisering och konkurrens på arbetsmarknaden samt en förändring av arbetsmarknaden har tillsammans med en stor generationsväxling försvårat rekrytering av ny arbetskraft för arbetsgivare. Stora pensionsavgångar skapar ett behov av att anställa nya medarbetare och för att fylla det gap som skapas i arbetskraften behöver organisationer arbeta med hur de ska attrahera och behålla unga medarbetare. Enligt forskning skiljer sig den yngre generationens värderingar och krav gentemot tidigare generationer vilket också innebär att det har skett ett skifte i vilka faktorer som motiverar och attraherar dessa. Dagens arbetsgivare står inför svårigheten att uppfatta och skaffa sig insikt om vad den nya generationen, som är på väg in på arbetsmarknaden, motiveras och attraheras av. Forskning kring dagens arbetsgivares insiktsnivå om vad som motiverar den yngre generationen är begränsad då dessa är relativt nya på arbetsmarknaden.

The aim of this thesis is to examine expressions of power and racism in news reporting about the district of Rinkeby, Sweden, in two major Swedish newspapers. News articles are examined using Norman Fairclough?s three-dimensional model for critical discourse analysis. The discourse theory has also been complemented with theories of media in relation to power, ideology and racism. The study has shown that news reporting about Rinkeby largely focused on stereotypical subjects such as violence, social problems and crime.

This paper deals with rights of women and their social role during the Viking Age. The method is to compare things and written material.In the written material, three cases of rape have been identified. How each of these cases where looked upon differs; legally the punishment for rape was exile. Violence against wives implied their right to divorce, whereby they were entitled to take with them a great part of the family´s capital, namely their dowry and morning gift.A husband and wife did not inherit each other but a widow could inherit from her children if they died without offspring.Women buried in boat graves indicate that they had a function or were closely involved in the cult. From two graves, the Aska Grave and the Oseberg Grave, the findings can be interpreted as indicating a change in the social behaviour.

Livmoderhalscancer påverkar de drabbade kvinnorna och deras närstående. Att inom sjukvården samtala om sjukdomens biverkningar och effekter kan upplevas som svårt. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva kvinnors upplevelser av att leva med livmoderhalscancer. En litteratursökning genomfördes och 10 artiklar analyserades med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Detta resulterade i fyra kategorier: att förlora kvinnligheten och känna sig otillräcklig, att pendla mellan hopp och hopplöshet, att känna behov av närhet och stöd och att önska mer och tydlig information.

Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva människors upplevelser av att leva med stomi. Analys av 13 vetenskapliga artiklar gjordes med hjälp av en kvalitativ innehållsanalys med en manifest ansats. I studien framkom olika aspekter på upplevelsen av att leva med stomi och detta resulterade i fyra kategorier: Att känna osäkerhet och tvingas till förändringar, att ha behov av stöd och känna rädsla för ensamhet, att ha sexuella problem och känna sig oattraktiv och att ha behov av information för att kunna acceptera. Resultatet visade att en förändrad kroppssyn ledde till sexuella svårigheter och oviljan att visa sig inför sin partner. Många ansåg att det var bland det viktigaste att få information innan operationen utfördes och att man även fick stöd och empati..

Bakgrund: Endast ett fåtal kvinnor i Sverige och övriga nordiska länder väljer en planerad hemförlossning. Organisationen för en planerad hemförlossning varierar mellan de nordiska länderna. Det är inte känt hur nöjda dessa kvinnor är med sin hemförlossning, det är därför av intresse att öka kunskapen om hur nöjda kvinnor i Sverige och Norden är med sin planerade hemförlossning.Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att beskriva förekomsten av nöjdhet hos kvinnor som genomgått en planerad hemförlossning samt att jämföra förekomsten av nöjdhet hos kvinnor i Sverige med Danmark, Norge och Island.Metod: Studien är en retrospektiv tvärsnittsstudie med kvantitativ ansats. Materialet är insamlat 2010-2013 inom ramen för forskningsnätverket ?Nordic Homebirth? via en enkätformulär på internetsidan www.nordichomebirth.com.
