Dagens ungdomar lever i en ständig interaktion med allehanda medier. De är en viktig målgrupp för medier och utsätts dagligen för budskap som förmedlas via denna källa. Har medier någon påverkan på hur ungdomar uppfattar världen av idag? Tillhandahåller de normbildande värderingar om hur kvinnor och män ska vara? Och i så fall, hur ser ungdomar på detta? Denna uppsats behandlar ovanstående frågor utifrån ett genusperspektiv.Elva gymnasie-ungdomar gavs möjlighet att genom två fokusgrupper uttrycka sina åsikter och uppfattningar om medier och dess budskap. Dessa ungdomar befinner sig mitt i processen i skapandet av en egen identitet, varpå de utgör en intressant grupp att undersöka.

The study aimed to evaluate picture communication during clinical as-sessment and intervention procedures in paediatric care. As part of the project KomHIT (Augmentative communication in paediatric health care settings) care professionals at different care units were provided with education and designed pictorial supports. These consisted of appointment letters with pictorial support, visual schedules and communication boards with both general and specific vocabulary. Care professionals and parents to children with and without communication disabilities participated. Survey data from care professionals and parents at five care units was supplemented with qualitative data from an interview with a multiprofessional group at one of the care units.

My essay begins with a story in which I portray different communicative situations at the preschool unit Myran. The children in my story are at an early stage of development and they all suffer from multiple disabilities which inhibit their ways of communicating. Through my story, I describe how I perceive different communication dilemmas in my work place. A difficulty I cover in my essay is how the educator knows if he or she has interpreted a child correctly when it does not have a verbal communication and therefore is completely dependent on the educators? interpretations of its communication efforts.

Botswana anses vara en fungerande demokrati. Landet omnämns ofta som Afrikas mirakel. Vi har valt att utifrån Robert Dahls teori om polyarki granska och belysa Botswanas demokratiska brister. Som komplement till Dahls teori används även Andreas Schedlers sju kriterier för demokratiska val.Det resultat som presenteras genom tillämpning av dessa teorier visar att det råder klara brister i Botswanas demokratisering. Analysdelen av arbetet belyser de problem som finns inom politiska rättigheter, såsom medborgarskapsrättigheter, mötesfrihet samt åsikts- och yttrandefrihet.

AbstractTitle: Equalis quality assures the communication. A qualitative study of superiors and co-workers view on the internal communication.Number of pages: 39 (42 including enclosures)Author: Ia AppelbergTutor: Else NygrenCourse: Media and Communication Studies CPeriod: Autumn term 2010University: Division of Media and Communication, Department of Information Science, Uppsala UniversityPurpose: Superiors and co-workers view on the internal communication is studied with the purpose to identify whether their opinions correspond with one another, and what differences and similarities there might be.Method: This study is based on qualitative interviews with superiors and co-workers, and complements with the use of observations.Main results: The results indicate that superiors and co-workers agree on several aspects of the communication, such as the fact that the organizational communication is disorderly and lack clear rules and guidelines. Superiors believe that the organization has a corresponding view on the internal communication, while co-workers are convinced this is not the case. This despite the fact that the results in the end show that both groups overall have very similar opinions on several of the elements in question. Another mutual opinion is that both groups wish to receive more information about current events and such.

Uppsatsens syfte är att studera bilden av den romersk katolska kyrkan från det protestantiska perspektivet i Sverige. Historiskt har den protestantiska bilden sedan reformationen betraktat romersk katolska kyrkan antingen som hotfull eller främmande.Uppsatsens primärmaterial består av ett representativt urval av svensk kristen press, med olika Svenskkyrkliga riktningar samt de större frikyrkliga samfunden som avsändare. Avgränsningen är förlagd till år 1962-1966, och följer Andra Vatikankonciliets pågående.Uppsatsens resultat uppvisar flera olika uttryck. Bilden av Andra Vatikankonciliet och romersk katolska kyrkan betraktades relativt positivt i delar av de svenskkyrkliga tidningar, medan uttrycken var generellt negativa i frikyrklig press. Enstaka tendenser vittnar även om att historiska uppfattningar av en hotfull romersk katolsk kyrka var fortsatt närvarande under Andra Vatikankonciliets pågående.

This thesis explores how public art is received by the general public in Borås, Sweden. As a point of departure it was assumed that a study of the local papers would offer an accurate insight in to the debate of public art. Hence, press clippings were chosen as primary source material together with the works of art. The questions addressed in the study are: what is written in the local daily press about public art? Who writes in or makes statements to the local dailies about public art? Textual analysis is the predominant method employed while hermeneutics is the underlying theory.

Bloggar kan avgöra valet 2006, kunde man läsa på DN:s kultursidor. Bloggar har fått sitt definitiva genombrott i Sverige och förespråkarna talar om en demokratisering av medierna. Och en del menar till och med att om man vill känna sig välinformerad och "med i sin tid" uppfattas man sannolikt inte som särskilt trovärdig om man inte har grundläggande kunskaper om, och/eller kan ge prov på viktiga bloggar. Uppsatsens syfte är att se om, och i så fall vilken betydelse bloggar har på den offentliga debatten, när det gäller opinionsbildning och i förlängningen vilken betydelse de kan få inför valet år 2006. Och för att se om just dessa bloggar är de mest betydelsefulla har jag valt att undersöka i vilken omfattning dessa förekommer på de två största ledarsidorna i svensk morgonpress - nämligen Dagens Nyheters (DN) och Svenska Dagbladets (SvD) ledarsidor.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the Swedish Public Relations and Communication profession from the Stockholm Accords point of view. The Stockholm Accords are an attempt to reflect Public Relations and Communication Management practice as it stands today and to provide a global common ground for the practitioners.The method used for this study is a quantitative research method conducted by a web survey answered by more than 400 Swedish communication managers. The questions posed were examining these managers view of their profession compared to the Stockholm Accords.The research shows that the Swedish way of implementing communication in the organization broadly corresponds to the Stockholm Accords when it comes to internal and external communication. However, there are some areas where Swedish communication practice diverges from Stockholm Accords. The issues which link governance, management and sustainability to communication have a much wider distribution of responses.

In the past year, Ozempic has been observed internationally, as well as in the Swedish press, due to its rapid rise in popularity, its off-label use for weight loss, and the ethical and societal debates surrounding availability and impact. The purpose of this study is to examine how Ozempic is portrayed in the four largest Swedish daily newspapers: Svenska Dagbladet, Dagens Nyheter, Expressen and Aftonbladet. The aim of the thesis is to identify the frames within which the drug is described to acquire knowledge of how it influences public perception of it. Every article published between the first of March until the first of November has been included in the study, if it bottoms in the defined phonomenon. The method used is a qualitative text analysis in consideration of Entman?s framing theory, which is focusing on identifying dominant themes, problem definitions, proposed solutions, and the actors attributed responsibility in the coverage of Ozempic in Swedish press.

The purpose of this study was to investigate if preferences for high- and low context communication differed significantly between individuals from individualistic and collectivistic cultures, living in a multicultural environment. A quantitative survey was used as method and the survey was answered by 150 students at Jönköping University and Uppsala University. Two self-assessment scales, obtained from previous studies were used to measure the degree of the two cultural dimensions and communication styles. Two multiple regression analyzes were performed to investigate the connection between collectivist cultures preference for high context communication and individualistic cultures preference for low context communication, that has been found in previous studies. Two ANOVAs were also performed to investigate differences in communication style depending on sex and length of stay in Sweden.
