The aim of this study was to examine young men born between 1990-1995 with anorectal malformations (ARM) whom have undergone the new PSARP-operation starting in 1990, and how they experience their psychosocial and sexual health. The study also examines how they cope with their life situation and what their experience is of the health care and how they were responded to through out the years. This study is a qualitative research and consists seven semi- structured interviews with young men between sixteen and twenty years old. The analyses of this material resulted in three themes around which the study centers: psychosocial health, sexual health and the medical establishment and the informants thoughts about the proposition of counseling for themselves and other individuals born with ARM. The study shows that these young men have a good psychosocial health and a likely reason for that is good parental relationships and close friendships.

Bakgrund: Intensivvårdssjuksköterskans yrke är utmanande, fartfyllt och stressigt det har många studier visat i sina resultat. Kraven på sjuksköterskan är stora och arbetet karaktäriseras av multisjuka patienter som ofta behöver snabba akuta insatser för att överleva. För att bättre kunna hantera stressen använder sig sjuksköterskan av olika copingstrategier. Den arbetsrelaterade stressen påverkar också privatlivet.Syfte: Syftet är att undersöka vad intensivvårdssjuksköterskor upplever som stress på arbetet, hur de hanterar den stressen och hur privatlivet påverkas.Metod: Designen var en deskriptiv studie med kvalitativ ansats. Tio intensivvårdssjuksköterskor på en neurokirurgisk intensivvårdsavdelningen på ett universitetssjukhus i Mälardalen intervjuades med semistrukturerade frågor och textmaterialet analyserades med hjälp av kvalitativ innehållsanalys.Resultat: Tre teman framkom ur materialet: (1) arbetets organisation och struktur påverkar intensivvårdssjuksköterskan, (2) intensivvårdssjuksköterskans hantering, reflektion och bearbetning av stress och (3) intensivvårdssjuksköterskans upplevelser och känslor vid stress.Slutsats: För att sjuksköterskan ska må bra, behålla sin hälsa och få arbetstillfredsställelse så behövs det balans mellan arbete och fritid.

Domestication has resulted in the ability for animals to adapt to environments created by the human over time. The behavior differs very little between wild and domesticated animals, but the difference seen is how often and to what degree a behavior is performed. The need for efficiency in modern animal production has led to welfare problems in the productionsystems where the animals have difficulties coping with their environment. Attempts to environmentally adapt individuals by selection for reduced frequency of natural behaviours have been made. These have shown that natural behaviours are complex and are controlled by several different mechanisms, making selection for reduced natural behavior difficult, and it may also lead to unwanted and abnormal behaviours.

This study aims to investigate how a number of students who are at the end of a teachers? educations program in social studies, geography, religion and history interpret that the national curriculums states that every teacher is responsible for students language development and should be supportive of language backgrounds. In the light of the curriculums the study explores how the teacher education students feel that the education has prepared them for teaching children with Swedish as a second language. The study also examines how the teacher education students think that the teacher education could improve in matters like preparing future teachers to teach social studies, geography, religion and history to second language children.The study is based on interviews with seven university students and shows that they feel a responsibility to develop their future students? language.

Syfte: Föreliggande litteraturstudies syfte var att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av deras arbete i den palliativa vården. Problemformuleringen grundades av att författarna anser att det inte läggs så stor vikt vid palliativ vård i undervisningen i grundutbildningen för sjuksköterskor och att sjuksköterskor möter patienter i ett palliativt skede nästan överallt i vården och förhoppningen är att studien ska leda till ökad förståelse för sjuksköterskans arbetssituation. Metod: Databassökningar gjordes i ELIN@kalmar, Cinahl, PubMed och PsycInfo med sökorden palliative care, caring, nursing, nurse, hospice, work, support, experience, specialist, district nurse. Ytterligare sökningar gjordes sent i arbetet med andra sökord i Cinahl och PubMed. Efter granskning inkluderades totalt 10 artiklar.

Purpose: The purposes of the current study were to investigate whether there were any differences in the perceptual ability between professional and non-professional ice-hockey players and whether professional players are better at distinguishing, paying attention to and concentrating on what is important during intense physical activity. Method: Twenty male ice-hockey players (10 from both the Swedish first and third divisions) participated in the study. Wingate test were used for physiological measurements while three psychological tests were presented in front of the participants. Stroop, Flanker and Fast counting tests were used to measure perceptual and coping abilities during intense physical activity and the differences between the two groups. Results: Fast counting and Flanker word 2 tests showed a significant difference between the two groups, whereby the professional groups was faster and more accurate than the non-professional group in answering.

A large part of the Iranian population resented the west, in particular USA and Great Britain, during the Islamic revolution in Iran 1979. The people were also resenting the adverse effects of the trumped up frame made in Iran. The last shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was detested by many in Iran for its west-oriented regime. The resentment among many Iranians is a consequence of the violations of e.g. the lack of political and civil rights, there were no existing legal security in the society, there were no economic distribution and the regime of Mohammad Reza Shah violated the human rights.The resolution from an Iranian perspective for riot is not new, during the last centuries the abomination against the despotic kings have been existing varyingly and big riots have been raised.  The Islamic revolution in 1979 was new because the revolution added adverse effects of west, the population detested west and expressed it by protesting through demonstration.  The significance of the revolution in 1979 was also attributable to Islam.

Psykisk ohälsa påverkar inte bara individen negativt utan även hela samhället med höga kostnader för vård och sociala system som följd. Stress är en av orsakerna till att den psykiska ohälsan ökar i Sverige idag. Detta sker främst bland ungdomar, unga vuxna och bland kvinnor. Hur stress påverkar individen beror på kapacitet att handskas med olika situationer som uppstår detta kallas copingstrategier. Denna studies syfte är att undersöka om könstillhörighet påverkar val av copingstrategi samt att se vilka copingstrategier som är mest förekommande hos studenter på en högskola i Mellansverige.Metoden som används är en kvantitativ studie med ett ändamålsenligt urval.

Sweden is today a country with ethnic, cultural and religious diversity. My aim in this study is to study what view of Islam and Muslims that students at a Catholic school in Stockholm have. The reason why Catholic schools are interesting to study is that previous research has showed that Muslim students around Europe often attend catholic schools as they are regarded as more tolerant towards religion. This study is based on a questionnaire and personal interviews with upper secondary students at the Catholic school in Stockholm. The result is compared with previous research on students of the same age group (12-15 years).

Mainly focusing on the big picture regarding the research concerning the religious sphere in Bronze Age Scandinavia, the research field has been missing out on the smaller picture. The results have a tendency to produce a picture where the big landscape monuments, social structures and cosmology appear in the foreground. This essay is a comment to this phenomena and a methodological and terminological discussion regarding the way in which we as archaeologist?s works with questions about religion and rites. The main task though is to make an attempt in trying to identify the ritual performers and to answer the question whether it's possible or not to do that.

Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka i vilken utsträckning alkoholkonsumtion hos studenter predicerades av kön, personlighet (bestående av impulsivitet, social hämning och negativ affektivitet) samt motiv till alkoholkonsumtion (bestående av stämningshöjande, coping, konformitet och sociala motiv). Tidigare forskning indikerar att dessa prediktorer, med undantag av social hämning, negativ affektivitet och konformitetsmotiv, samvarierar med alkoholkonsumtion. 123 kvinnliga och 43 manliga lärarstudenter vid Växjö universitet ingick i vår studie. Fyra beprövade enkäter sammanställdes till en enkät som användes för insamling av all data. En multipel regressionsanalys visade att män rapporterar en högre alkoholkonsumtion än kvinnor och att impulsivitet, stämningshöjande- samt copingmotiv predicerar alkoholkonsumtion.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the unaccompanied children's experiences of the support offered at group homes intended for this group. The purpose is also to find out if they feel like the stay at the group home has prepared them for an independent life. The study has a qualitative approach and results collection occurred through semi-structured interviews. Seven young men aged 18-20 years were interviewed, all of them have lived for at least one year in a group home and are now living in their own apartment. The results have shown that the adolescents had both positive and negative experiences from their stay at the group home and that they have different views about whether they have received the support they need to cope independently.

AbstraktDen palliativa vården har utvecklats under de senaste åren och hospicerörelsen med dess filosofi har vuxit sig stark i Sverige. Sjuksköterskan har en stor roll inom denna vårdform vilket innebär en aktiv helhetsvård av den sjuke patienten och dess familj. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa sjuksköterskans upplevelse av att arbeta inom palliativ vård. Metoden som användes var systematisk litteraturstudie och antalet vetenskapliga artiklar som inkluderades var 13 till antalet. Tre kategorier växte fram av detta material och dessa var att arbeta inom den palliativa vården, copingstrategier och sjuksköterskans roll.

Forskning har visat på ledarskapets betydelsefulla roll för att främja hälsa och minimera arbetsrelaterad ohälsa. Detta samtidigt som ledares egen arbetsroll ofta kännetecknas av hög arbetsbelastning och påfrestning vilket är riskfaktorer för arbetsrelaterad stress och ohälsa. Studien undersöker upplevelser och hantering av stress på arbetsplatsen hos chefer med personalansvar. Även arbetsrelaterade resurser har undersökts för att synliggöra huruvida dessa inverkar vid hantering av stress. Sex individuella djupintervjuer med personalchefer genomfördes och databearbetningen gjordes med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys.
