The Swedish social insurance agency provides financial support for families and children, but also for people with work injury, illness and at old age. During 2012 they saw the amount of notifications of insurance increasing in Sweden, which is a development that cost our society a great deal of money.

Finns det någon skillnad i upplevd stress hos förskolepedagoger och grundskollärare? Stress hos lärare kan definieras som en känsla av ilska, spändhet, frustration eller depression. Enligt Krav- kontroll-stödmodellen mår de som har jobb med höga krav, låg kontroll och dåligt socialt stöd sämst på jobbet. En kvantitativ studie har gjorts där enkäter delats ut till lärare på förskolan och grundskolan i en mindre ort i Sverige. Data jämfördes sedan med data från en större ort i Sverige.

Stress is common in today?s society, but the word stress has numerous connotations. The aim of this study was to investigate how dogs are effected by stress and what the veterinary nurse can do to help dogs to avoid or at least mitigate stress within the veterinary hospital. The goal was also to see how dogs perceive the environment in the veterinary hospital and what behaviours dogs demonstrate when they enter the hospital and during their stay. Studies have shown that dogs have a reluctant feeling on entering a veterinary hospital. They can feel stressed by coming to a new environment, as well as by being put in a cage with no control over what is going to happen to them.

This study deals with one of the most discussed work environmental issues in the modern society of Sweden today - work related stress, its causes and how stress can affect people in their working situation. Our study is based on a questionnaire among aid handling officers in two municipalities of the middle of Sweden, and two interviews with their directors. We found that aid handling officers has a complex occupational role. We also found that the officers in these two municipalities experiences about the same level of stress.Further in the study, we will deal with whatever could be the cause of the stressful situation, using the demand/control model of Karasek and Theorell. The result shows that despite the similarity of the stress experience, the cause was shown to be different.

Syftet med undersökningen har varit att ta reda på hur pedagoger kan förebygga stress i barns dagliga rutiner. Vi har undersökt vilka rutinsituationer som pedagogerna anser stressar barn mest och hur stress kan förebyggas. Vidare har vi undersökt hur stress påverkar barn i behov av särskilt stöd och om pedagogerna anser att stress är ett problem i deras verksamhet. I litteraturen fann vi att problematiska relationer är en stor stressfaktor för barn. Enkätundersökningen visade att de situationer som pedagogerna anser stressar barnen mest är matsituationen och tambur- eller korridorsituationen.

Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att studera stress hos barn i förskolan och att undersöka hur pedagoger arbetar förebyggande mot stress hos barn i förskolan.

Resultatet pekar på att stressfaktorer i dagens samhälle påverkar båda vuxna och barn negativt och positivt. Det visar också att de vuxna (pedagogerna och föräldrarna) i första hand behöver lära sig att hantera sin egen stress.
