The purpuse of this study was to develop knowledge about learning condition that are to be in a context of interaction with persons that have Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis are included. The pre-understanding has evidence in that the public very often has a lack of knowledge in understanding persons with this kind of disabilities that can put the social interplay in disharmony. The phenomenological approach was used to reach the essence of the learning influence processes. Seen from the respondents experiences of interaction as a help for the informal learning in a working context. The purpose was to see the result of interplay and the effect of learning condition and to see what help those respondents acctually have experienced.

Den vanligaste formen av korruption är enligt Brottsförebyggande rådet den form av korruption som benämns sofistikerad, eller indirekt, korruption. Den sofistikerade korruptionen återfinns oftast högt upp i organisationer, samt i mötena mellan representanter från olika organisationer. Syftet med denna uppsats är att se hur teorier om organisationen av det offentliga livet och socialt kapital kan användas för att förklara förekomsten av sofistikerad korruption i Sverige. Tre empiriska fall av svensk korruption, Motala, Systembolaget och Skandia, används för att belysa teoriernas förmåga att förklara detta fenomen. Uppsatsen finner att såväl organisatoriska faktorer, till exempel sammanflätningen av statliga och privata principer, som förtroende inom grupper och från utomstående har viss betydelse för att korruption uppstår och för dess omfattning.

Inledning : Postmodernismen har existerat i cirka 30 år och varit på den sociologiska agendan i drygt 20 år. Den har fått utstå omfattande kritik, men har också lockat många. Ofta framstår den postmoderna teorin som irrationalistisk och enbart kritisk, men om man utför en närmare granskning finner man en systematisk teori med positiva ansatser. Denna sida lyfts dock sällan fram, men har under de senaste 10 åren fått allt större fotfäste inom samhällsvetenskaperna, ibland under beteckningen postmodern teori, men minst lika ofta har den kallats vid andra namn. Att finna rötterna till den postmoderna teorin och se hur denna systematiska teori växer fram är därför viktigt för att förstå den samtida utvecklingen inom sociologisk teori.Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att försöka frilägga de gemensamma nämnarna i den postmoderna teorin och på så vis kunna betrakta den som en rörelse med enhetlig grund och positiva förtecken.

This master thesis is based on the sociocultural perspective. A qualitative research study was conducted to investigate children's attitudes towards reading, texts and libraries.The theoretical background is constituted by ideas from the new sociology of childhood, literacy-studies and reader-response theory.The study was conducted with 23 children, 13 girls and 10 boys, participating in focus groups.The results of the study reveal that children's literacy-activities in school are strongly influenced and limited by adults. Children's interest in pictures and non-fiction-reading do not correspond to the school institution that favors traditional media and fiction. The study also reveals a gender division between children's literacy-activities that tends to grow with age. All the children in the study regard libraries as book-houses and wished for libraries that combine activity and serenity.The thesis shows the importance of being aware of, and engage in, children's reading-interests and reading-practices if the reading stimulating activities in schools and libraries are to be successful.

Syftet med studien var att identifiera och beskriva massmediala diskurser kring diagnosen ADHD samt analysera hur dessa diskurser förhåller sig till varandra. Vidare studerades hur diskursernas dialektiska samspel med den omgivande sociala praktiken kan förstås. Studien är en kritisk diskursanalys av en artikelserie i den svenska dagstidningen Sydsvenska Dagbladet bestående av åtta delar med sammanlagt tretton artiklar som belyser olika aspekter av diagnosen ADHD. Studien genomfördes på två nivåer där den första, makrodiskursiva nivån, belyser hur diagnosen ADHD och de svårigheter den står för förklaras. Två huvudsakliga diskurser identifierades, en biologisk diskurs och en miljödiskurs.

During the last decade of the twentieth century both ?manhood? and gender studies seems to have undergone changes. With the field of masculinity and the critical studies of men, added as ?subsections? of broader gender studies, new knowledge has been produced to better grasp the production of gender and power relations of patriarchy. During the same decade as the ?metrosexual? first appeared of the urban stage, acts of homophobia and attitudes towards ?manhood? seems to have changed.

In many of the disputes concerning custody, residence and visitation determined by the court, some form of violence has been performed. The consequence of a child who has witnessed violence in their homes is a problem that is sometimes overlooked. It is not unusual that the violence will continue even after a separation. The law shows that the child´s need of both parents is to be met. This has according to previous studies resulted in the fact that courts do not always see visitation with a violent parent as a risk for the child.

The purpose of this study was to examine how a selection of social welfare officers based on the principle of the best interest of the child construct a minimum level of the material standard in a home. Another purpose was to examine whether different units with varying socioeconomic prerequisites in the municipality of Stockholm construct this level differently.The method used in this study was Sociology of Law and two focus groups were used for the gathering of the data. A social constructive theory, a class perspective using concepts of Bourdieu and a perspective of law were used to analyse the material of data.The results showed that the courses of action varied from enactment and the policies of the municipality of Stockholm, unspecified theories of the development of children, the conception of what is normal and what children needs, the context in which they work, the development of the society and what they estimate that children needs when attending school. The results also showed a difference between the two units concerning the minimum level of the material standard in a home.

Kartläggningen var från början en del av ett uppdrag från regeringen till länsstyrelsen. Uppdraget innebar att Länsstyrelserna på regional nivå ska ansvara för kompetensstöd när det gäller våldsutsatta kvinnor, barn som har bevittnat våld och våldsutövare, däribland hedersrelaterat våld. Det fastställdes att länsstyrelserna ska lämna in en samlad redovisning av insatserna som vidtagits i varje län. En samlad bild av länet ska kunna redovisas september 2012. Syftet med denna undersökning var att se över vilken kunskap och vilket stöd verksamheter och ideella organisationer erbjuder personer som utsätts för hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck.

The thesis of this Masterpaper has been to analyse what tendencies there might be to distinguish structural alterations in the publishing business today and how they can be understood analytically. The following questions have helped form the principal opinions found in this essay: - What tendencies according to the alterations in publishing business is Piratförlaget representing? -What tendencies according to the alterations in publishing are the literary agents representing? What tendencies regarding the alterations in publishing are the electronic publishing and other techniques related to the publishing business representing? Participants, familiar with the publishing industry in various ways, have been interviewed. The main theory is based on facts from sociology of literature, although Faheys and Randalls Key Scenario, with its driving forces, also provided a great deal of help. In addition, to structure the dynamical publishing business, Peter Senges The Systems Iceberg Model was useful.

Swedish studies concerning children?s reading habits show that detective stories have become more popular in recent years. The aim of this bachelor?s thesis is to examine how the gender system is described in four detective stories written for children at the age of 9 to 13 years. Our main question is: How is the gender system reflected in the four selected detective stories for children? We also pose the question: How are femininity and masculinity described? Our study is based on three theories.

Persons suffering from Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) struggle with complications within the functions that regulate and control the brain activities, due to deficiencies in these functions within the affected nerve-paths.

According to Diagnostic and Statistic Manual of Mental Disorders, American Psychiatric Association (DSM-IV), certain diagnostic criteria of ADHD must be fulfilled in order for a person to be diagnosed with ADHD. The everyday problems caused by ADHD are individual and medication can have positive effects relieving the person?s impairing behaviour.
