(2008) and find out about if their way of "doing" EI gets trained and developed after several years of professional activity. The results shows that the practitioners used all four branches of EI in dialog with the client, both intra- and interpersonal.

Enligt forskning har psykisk sjukdom länge varit ett tabubelagt område som många har undvikit att tala om. Det är ett relativt outforskat område kring hur psykiskt sjuka har upplevt den roll samhället har haft under deras återhämtningsprocess. Denna studie kommer därför att handla om individer som har återhämtat sig från psykisk sjukdom och hur de har upplevt vad samhället har spelat för roll under återhämtningen samt vad de anser är samhällets syn på psykisk sjukdom idag. Intervjupersonerna konstaterar att det viktigaste för dem under återhämtningen har varit det stöd som deras nära och kära har gett dem. Men även det jobb som de har gjort med sig själv, att de har blivit starkare av händelsen och lärt sig mycket om sig själva.

Syftet med examensarbetet är främst att undersöka hur genus framställs i barnlitteratur samt fokusera på bibliotekariens roll i samband med utlåning av barnböcker till förskolan och vårdnadshavare. Som förskollärare ser vi boken som ett pedagogiskt redskap och som ett stöd i ett genusarbete. Vi har erfarenheter av att boken har ett stort användningsområde och de flesta böcker lånas via biblioteket. Därför ser vi att bibliotekarien har en viktig roll för förskolan i deras bokutbud. LpFö98 tar upp genusarbetet som en del av verksamheten, vi anser att det är vår skyldighet att ha kunskap om genus och dess betydelse för kommande generationer.
