Upplevd stress : En jämförande studie mellan hemmiljö och arbetsmiljö ur ett könsperspektiv

Syftet var att undersöka graden av upplevd stress i hem- och arbetsmiljö ur ett könsperspektiv. Syftet var även att undersöka om antal barn och ansvarsnivå i hemmet har någon betydelse för upplevd stress. Självskattad stress i hem- och arbetsmiljö undersöktes med Perceived Stress Scale hos 126 arbetande eller studerande män och kvinnor.  Studien visade att kvinnor upplevde högre stress än män främst i hemmet. Det framkom också att män upplever högre stress i arbetet än i hemmet, medan kvinnor inte uppvisade någon skillnad mellan de båda miljöerna.  Huvudslutsatsen var att upplevd stress kan förklaras av kön.

Mödrar till flickor med Asperger syndrom/högfungerande autism: En jämförelse mellan stressorer och samhällets stöd i Sverige och Spanien

The main purpose of the thesis was to investigate if mothers of girls with Asperger syndrome/high-functioning autism experienced the same stressors regardless of society and culture or in which way the stressors might differ.A special purpose of the thesis was to investigate if the society by different types of support could relieve stress and eliminate or reduce stressors.The method of the thesis was to interview three mothers in Sweden and three in Spain, who all had a daughter, 10 - 15 years old, with Asperger syndrome or high-functioning autism.The result shows that mothers in both countries experienced equal level of stress, though the Swedish mothers got more support from the society. However, the stressors differed. For the Spanish mothers the main stressor was the girls´ problems at school. The main stressor for the Swedish mothers was how to find time to fulfil their different roles, e.g. mother, wife, housewife, professional, friend.

Anorexia Nervosa - en fast identitet i en flytande modernitet? : En kvalitativ undersökning av individer som utvecklat anorexia

The aim of this study is to analyze how individuals experience their eating disorder, the focus being if anorexia may be perceived as a secure safe zone in the new modern world. The aim is to examine if individuals affected with anorexia nervosa understand the disorder as a solution to the modern worlds changes and the new individual freedom that it entails. This will be analyzed with the help of terms in Erich Fromms theories about escape mechanisms and Catarina Kinnvalls theories about the modern worlds ontological insecurity.The study is based on data collected from four informants of different ages and gender. The interviews were conducted through email and informants were chosen based on a strategic selection and snowball sampling. For the analysis of the empirical material Fromms escape mechanisms (authoritarianism, destructiveness and automaton conformity) and Kinnvalls theories of identity in the modern world have been used.The results of the analysis show that the eating disorder has a great significance for the individual construction and maintenance of identity and that the eating disorder becomes a safe zone to retreat to in a world of performance anxiety.

Resultaten visar att MBSR är en verksam behandlingsmetod, men också att de publicerade studierna har brister vilket motiverar fler utvärderingar med striktare kontrollmetodik..
