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.

The purpose with this essay was to study how the social work is shaped in the methadone programme and how the staffs treat and work with the social integration for the patients.We have studied the experience of a medical assisted treatment from two different treatment clinics and focused on their treatment programme. We have chosen to focus on the social aspect but we have also been taking part of the medical treatment - the methadone. In order to get a bigger picture of our problem area we also studied how Sweden's narcotic politic is constructed and how a narcotic life could look like before the entrance in the program. We describe this with the help of the theory about the narcotic carrer and the society's view on a normal living..

AbstractThe purpose of this research is to examine which methods the municipality of Örebro recommends its schools to use in their work against mobbing and bad treatment, and to see if the school investigated follows these guidelines. By means of interviews I will examine which methods the Group for Equal Treatment at the school has found effective when dealing with these issues. My conclusions are that the municipality of Örebro clearly states what is important for the schools to work with, and a lot of effort has been put into creating a common model for all schools to use, in order to fulfill the goals of the law (2006:67) which forbids discrimination and any other kind of bad treatment of children and students. The school investigated follows the municipality guidelines to great extent. Early on the Group for Equal Treatment, including both principals, teachers and students, worked out a detailed plan for equal treatment. The Group for Equal Treatment mentioned some successful methods to use against mobbing and other forms of bad treatment. One of these methods is the annual theme week where the students get to participate in outlining the contents. Another success factor is to establish a good atmosphere between teachers and students, which is possible only if the teachers have time and opportunity to get to know their students. My examination shows that it is important to have a well thought-out plan to follow, but it must be adjusted to the needs and preconditions of the school in question..

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.

The purpose of the work is to highlight schools work to prevent bullying and abusive treatment, find out about schools work to prevent bullying and abusive treatment follow what is written in the governing documents and how schools can work preventively against the same. The questions have been investigated through qualitative interviews and analysis of documents or in the theoretical background. The interviewees and partially schools were selected through an arbitrarily selection. In each plan against abusive treatment states that the monitoring and evaluation should be conducted in a manner that is not consistent with the responses from leisure educator 1, 2 and 3. School B's plan does not contain an overview of the measures needed to prevent and stop abusive treatment of children.

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. Studien har genomförts med semistrukturerade intervjufrågor till åtta pedagoger i två förskolor. Pedagogerna arbetar med förskolebarn i åldrarna ett till sex. 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.

Several studies have examined the effects of perceived justice of preferential treatments to customers, but few have studied these effects when customers have different input. The purpose of the study is therefore to enhance the knowledge and understanding of the effects of preferential treatments to customers with varying input. More specifically, the study focuses on how perceived justice, customer satisfaction and loyalty are affected depending on the customer's input and received treatment. An experimental study with 263 respondents showed that the perceived justice and loyalty intentions among both the receiver and the non-receiver of the preferential treatment were of highest level when it was given to a customer with large input. Customer satisfaction however, was found to be of highest level when customers themselves received preferential treatment, regardless of the size of their input.

Statistics shows that drunk driving and relapse increases in the Swedish society and it?s a problem that can be considered worth examining because of all the negative consequences that it conveys.

Arbetet handlar om hur barn ser på och påverkas av stress, både i skolan och på fritiden. Syftet med arbetet är att skapa en förståelse för vad som stressar barn och genom det kunna hjälpa barnen att hantera de stressande situationer de hamnar i. Stress är kroppens reaktion när vi utsätts för krav. Det finns både positiv och negativ stress. Positiv stress kan vara en drivkraft som motiverar, men när kraven blir för stora vänds pressen till något negativt.

The study is based on a qualitative method. The data consist of interviews, with six social workers and three supervisors. The study?s theoretical framework is based on KASAM, SOC-sense of coherence by Antonovsky, demand- control- support model by Karasek & Theorell, stress theory by Hans Selye and coping strategies by Lazarus.

Jag har i mitt examensarbete studerat barns syn på stress. Vad de tror orsakar stress, hur man känner sig och om man kan göra någonting åt det. Genom enkätundersökningar i en fyra, en sexa och en åtta har jag fått fram barnens tankar om stress. Jag har också läst mycket intressant litteratur inom området för att fördjupa mina kunskaper och ta del av vad andra personer har kommit fram till angående barn och stress. Litteraturen har jag också användt som grund till den empiriska studien.
