När karriären krackelerar? En studie om hur unga journalister tänker kring situationen på arbetsmarknaden
Den här uppsatsen låter sex unga journalister komma till tals med avseende på hur de tänker kring förhållandena på arbetsmarknaden. Syftet är att med hjälp av en kvalitativ intervjustudie belysa hur unga journalister tänker kring sin karriär, framtid och livet vid sidan av yrket.Arbetsgivarna inom mediebranschen tillhör dem som i störst utsträckning kringgår lagen om anställningsskydd (LAS). Det innebär att många journalisters första arbetslivserfarenheter består av vikariat och tillfälliga anställningar. Detta resulterar i ett kringflackande liv som för med sig konsekvenser på det privata planet.De sex intervjupersonerna har olika erfarenheter av hur det är att komma ut i arbetslivet från en journalistutbildning. En viktig slutsats från studien är att de sex intervjupersonerna på olika sätt fått anpassa sina liv efter branschens krav på flexibilitet, tillgänglighet och rörlighet.

Elitorienterares kost- och vätskeintag inför och under en tävlingshelg - Uppnår orienterarna rekommendationerna för optimal prestation?
För att en elitidrottare ska prestera optimalt under träning och tävling, är det viktigt att hon/han har en adekvat kosthållning. Särskilda näringsrekommendationer för idrottare har framarbetats. Bland annat har Svenska Olympiska Kommittén utarbetat en kostpolicy för elitidrottare, som belyser vikten av näringsintag före, under och efter fysisk aktivitet, samt hur dessa intag bör vara sammansatta näringsmässigt för att idrottaren skall kunna prestera och återhämta sig optimalt.Syftet med detta arbete var att se hur kost- och vätskeintaget såg ut bland elitorienterare före, under och efter tävling, i förhållande till gällande rekommendationer. Även livsmedelsval samt deltagarnas resonemang kring kost- och vätskeintag i samband med tävling studerades.Studiens urval baserades på 15 elitorienterare (8 män och 7 kvinnor) som deltog i orienteringstävlingar i Ronneby under påskhelgen. Orienterarna fyllde i en mat- och vätskedagbok under totalt fyra dagar, två dagar före respektive under tävlingshelgen.

Neuropsykiatriska funktionshinder och missbruk: de professionellas syn på riskfaktorer och skyddsfaktorer ur ett utvecklingsekologiskt perspektiv
The purpose of our study is to examine what risk factors can contribute to a child/youth with neuropsychiatric disorders developing an addiction to drugs. We also wanted to find out what protective factors can contribute not to develop an addiction. In order to find out these two different aspects we interviewed twelve professionals to get their view upon the matter. The professionals work within different sectors such as school, healthcare, social services and one of the interviewed is a member of an organization that specialises in neuropsychiatric disorders.When analysing our result of the interviews we used Bronnfenbrenner´s theory on the ecology of human development. What we found was that there are significant risk factors and protective factors on different levels of the child's environment.On the first level, the microsystem, interpersonal relations have an impact on the child's development.

En analys av hur företags uttryckta förväntningar på lämpliga arbetssökande kan tolkas
Syftet med denna uppsats var att med utgångspunkt från ett socialkonstruktionistiskt perspektiv undersöka hur två kända företags presentationer av en önskvärd arbetssökande kan tolkas. Kritisk diskursanalys ur genusperspektiv utfördes på texter från H&Ms och IKEAs hemsidor. Av intresse var hur individen konstrueras i Internetbaserade företagspresentationer. Genom analys identifierades diskurser samt subjektpositioner som skapats i texterna. Fokus låg genomgående på konsekvenser av sociala konstruktioner och på oavsiktlig diskriminering vid rekrytering.
Unga mäns kriminella beteende : - En studie av vilka sociala och personliga förhållanden som kan påverka unga män att utveckla ett kriminellt beteende
Mitt syfte med uppsatsen var att undersöka vilka sociala och personliga förhållanden som bidrar till utvecklingen av ett kriminellt beteende bland unga män. Jag har genomfört intervjuer med ett antal unga män i 18-19års åldern ur samma vänskapskrets för att få en inblick i deras förklaringar till sitt kriminella beteende. Uppsatsen bygger på deras berättelser och funderingar kring sin situation.Uppsatsens material har samlats in genom kvalitativa intervjuer som analyserats ur socialpsykologiska perspektiv. Resultatet visar bl.a. att ungdomar uppger att de begår brott av rationella skäl för att få snabba pengar och saker de vill ha.

Införande av evidensbaserade metoder: ett kommunperspektiv
This thesis is composed within the framework of the supplementary course in psychotherapy concentrating on family therapy (60 credits) arranged by Lund University's affiliate in Västerås, Sweden.The purpose of this thesis has been to explore how the idea to initiate evidence based methods in the workings of the Individual and Family Care Department of the City of Västerås was born. Furthermore the thesis will explore if consideration for methods of theoretical implementation are implied. The study assumes a qualitative attempt and is based on semi-structured interviews from three levels within the organization, including both management and operation.Theories on organization,implementation and the theory on change strategies have been used as a theoretical starting point.The study result shows that introduction of evidence based methods in the City of Västerås is based on the experiences of the organization regarding the need to develop and increase social services contributions to non-institutional care. Experiences from expensive transferrals to institutions which only occasionally produced satisfactory results were a contributing factor. New published research and a strong interest and desire inside the department to improve and change social services contributions have naturally been a positive influence for the development.
Försvaret i skolan : En studie om total- och civilförsvarundervisning i skolan under 70-talets kallakrigsår.
The purpose of this essay is to illustrate the preparation of total and civil defense education in schools in the 1970s to gain insight into how the school looked and pondered the complicated world that existed outside the school's doors. By using the concepts of welfare state, welfare and civil defense culture, I have studied relevant materials to get answers to questions treating the total and civil education in schools after Lgr69, the way the state sees the subject and if it is possible to detect a civil defense culture in schools and if so, how it will be expressed. The results show that the state emphasized education as incredibly important because knowledge of how to act in a crisis or war could be extremely crucial for the individuals and their survival. The education was so important that it got a role as a main factor in Lgr69. But even if the education was important the teachers had huge problems with the schedule and many teachers couldn´t educate all facts because they didn´t have enough time.

SourceURL:file:///Users/sofiahultin/Desktop/AMDex/Summary%20of%20essay.docI my essay I describe my master project Alla måste duscha ? en gympasalsredovisning/ Everyone has to shower ? a school gym presentation.

With the help of Mika Hannulas book Politics, Identity and Public Space: Critical Reflections in and through the Practices of Contemporary Art, I discuss how the stories I tell trough my project can be seen as suggestions for a possible reality. By adding my stories to the old ones (that create our society) I hope they, if only just the slightest, can influence on how we look at reality and on a possible reality.
