Hos barn med utvecklingsstörning och autism är kontrollen över blåsan och tarmen försenad i varierande grad. Syfte: Att utvärdera hur föräldrars upplevelse av sitt barns förmåga gällande toalettbesök samt blås- ochtarmkontroll har förändrats sedan avslutad föräldracirkel. Metod: Deskriptiv studie. Enkäter till samtliga föräldrar (n=64) som deltagit i föräldracirkeln vid Habiliteringen för barn ochvuxna i Uppsala län, åren 2002-2010. Svarsfrekvensen var 27 av 64 (42 %).

According to modern theory, PR is seen as something that creates value for majority of products. The art market is a market that is characterized by several actors in different value chains, where transparency is low and art critics, or PR creators, have a certain amount of impact on the view of art, at least had so historically. But how does PR vs. art galleries´ own marketing (art brochure) affect the view and price consideration of art and artists for non-expert art spectators? After performing a large quantitative study, we can conclude that PR has negative to no affect on the view of art and the artist compared to the case when the spectator did not receive any information prior to viewing an art piece.

The aim of this master?s thesis is to study librarians? views on children and young people as Internet users in Swedish libraries. It examines what types of problems and possibilities the librarians see with children?s and young people?s use of the Internet, how these problems might be solved, and what they think about regulations and filters. Qualitative interviews were conducted with nine librarians, and their statements were analysed with David Buckingham?s After the death of childhood as a theoretical foundation.

Classification systems express an idea of the world as it was when the systems was made. If the classification system is not revised there is a possibility that the system will become antique and hard to apply to different subjects. The purpose of this study is to see if the SAB-system is a classification system which shows a reflection of the subject Religion that is equivalent with that of Swedish universities. The ideas which are behind the classification of the subject religion in the SAB-system have been analysed, as well as the structuring of the scientific discipline Religion at the universities. The result will show if the SAB-system can classify the subject religion in a satisfying way at university libraries.

Problematisk skolfr?nvaro ?r ett v?xande problem, b?de i Sverige och internationellt. H?g fr?nvaro resulterar i l?gre m?luppfyllelse, ?kar sv?righeterna att i vuxenlivet komma in p? arbetsmarknaden, samt ?kar risken f?r exempelvis missbruk, kriminalitet och psykiska besv?r. Forskning inom omr?det skolfr?nvaro har tidigare fr?mst fokuserat p? riskfaktorer och konsekvenser av fr?nvaro, samt behandlingsmetoder n?r skolfr?nvaron ?r ?ngestrelaterad. Detta har genererat ett i viss m?n individinriktat perspektiv.

This essay is about the history of the hearing aid in Sweden, from 1930s until today. The hearing aid as an apparatus is described, and views by the users are presented. Articles and interviews have been used as source material to answer the main questions. In the essay, people who have written the articles, and the ten users being interviewed, describe how hearing aids are used in everyday life, and how users interact with people in general and how the hearing care system treats users. Another question regards how users perceive their own hearing aids from an aesthetic perspective.

This report is an attempt to clarify how religious and non-religious views-of-life [livsåskådningar] are created through the collaboration and opposition of religious and scientific elements/ideas. This with the hope of reaching a fruitful result related to the solution of world-view related conflicts, such as the ones existing between science and religion, on an individual and societal level.This is accomplished with the help of two assertions: (1) Mankind has a need to explain its existence and surroundings. (2) Religion and science has their origins in the same seed and aim to serve the same purpose, or function. Together these two assertions lay the theoretical foundations of this report which implies that all humans have an innate need of sustaining a stable world-view.The result of this report is that a final solution to world-view related conflicts are beyond reach as our mental and physical nature limits us. However there are strategies for minimizing world-view related conflicts effect on society..

The purpose of this thesis is to identify and analyse the view and consciousness of history present in essays written by Swedish high school students in 1877 and 1929. A theoretical framework was established in order to accomplish this, based on the theories of Peter Aronsson and Jörn Rüsen (through Lars Andersson Hult) that defines consciousness of history through a matrix that expresses a progression as well as a scaling complexity. Furthermore, the theories of Knut Kjelstadli and Magnus Hermansson Adler were adopted to establish two different types of view of history: one adhering to a view of history where groups and individuals are seen as integral to the progression of history, and the other explains historical process through more functional explanations, such as dependant on cultural and social structures.This framework erects ideal-types of different types of view and consciousness of history, and the thesis at hand strives to categorise the different kinds of view and consciousness of history found in the studied essays in accordance with these ideal-types through two different models based on the above mentioned theories.The findings presented here largely point to a view of history that is largely centered on an actor-oriented view of history, where individuals such as kings and generals are given a central position when historical events are being narrated, and is present in both 1877 and 1929, with some shifting nuances. As for the consciousness of history the lion part of the analysed texts can be seen adhering to a more traditional type of consciousness in 1877, although a slight shift can be seen towards a more complex type of consciousness in the texts from 1929..

Detta handlar i grunden om fyra elever, mellan 10 och 14 år som är diagnostiserade autism. Syftet med det här examensarbetet är, att med inriktning på vardagliga situationer där barn och ungdomar diagnostiserade autism ingår i, utreda och identifiera grupp- och organisationsrelaterade problem, vilka lyfter fram och förstärker ett avvikande beteende. Jag vill sätta fokus på deras omgivning, och ur ett sociokulturellt perspektiv titta på situationer där pragmatiska svårigheter, både när det gäller den kommunikativa och den samspelsmässiga situationen, har ett avgörande inslag. Följande frågor har jag velat ha svar på: ? Vilka sociala mekanismer i gruppen/klassen/skolan gör det besvärligt alternativt gynnsamt för individen att kommunicera och samspela med omgivningen? ? Vilka sociala fenomen i gruppen/klassen/skolan lyftes fram och förstärker alternativt motverkar ett avvikande beteende? För att komma åt detta har jag tagit avstamp i ?fenomenologin?.

Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur olika behandlingsenheter i Sverige utvärderade effekterna av interventioner för barn med autism 0-6 år, oavsett om det rörde sig om enstaka åtgärder eller hela program. Det var också intressant att se om, och i så fall hur, man tog hänsyn till risker och möjligheter som kunde bidra till variation i utfallen. Kontakt togs med samtliga landstings, och två privata, behandlingsenheter. Brev innehållande information om studien och en enkät med studiens frågor skickades ut.Resultaten visade att man i första hand utvärderade effekterna genom någon form av bedömningstest t ex. PEP, VABS eller ADOS.

Under vår verksamhetsförlagda utbildning på Grundlärarprogrammet har vi kunnat urskilja skillnader i vilket stöd eleverna får med läxarbete i hemmet. Utifrån dessa iakttagelser har vi valt att undersöka hur ofta eleverna uppskattar att deras föräldrar ser till att de avsätter tid för att göra sina läxor och hur det påverkar elevernas prestationer. Mycket av den tidigare forskningen tyder på att läxstöttning är väsentligt för hur eleverna presterar i skolan och att det finns stora könsskillnader i hur ofta eleverna får stöttning och också i hur eleverna presterar i skolan. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vilken betydelse föräldrars engagemang och tid till läxstöttning har för elevernas prestationer och huruvida det existerar könsskillnader gällande stöttning i hemmet. Vi har frågat oss hur ofta eleverna och föräldrarna skattar att föräldrarna ser till att eleverna avsätter tid för att göra sina hemläxor.

Syfte: Syftet är att studera kommunikativa tillvägagångssätt hos ett barn med autism. Hur ser kommunikationen ut som barnet använder och möter i förskolan? Vilka möjligheter respektive hinder för den kommunikativa utvecklingen kan upptäckas i förskolan?Teori: Studien bygger på ett sociokulturellt perspektiv, grundat på Vygotskijs tankar kring lärande och hur barnet formas och utvecklas i förhållande till den kultur, samhälle och sociala kontext det omges utav. Språk och kommunikation är centralt inom valt perspektiv; att ha kontroll över språket och att använda det är en viktig funktion. Kommunikation sker i sociala situationer tillsammans med andra och är betydelsefull för lärande och utveckling.Metod: Utifrån en etnografisk ansats har information samlats genom deltagande observationer, intervjuer och samtal samt dokumentinsamling för att utforska sociala och kommunikativa förlopp.

The purpose of this essay is to analyze the view on sexuality held by Sweden?s first woman doctor Karolina Widerström, by using ideologycritical textanalysis on the written scriptures of dr. Widerström that focus on sexualpolitics. In doing this I use the theory of speech by Foucault. In this study I focus on Widerström?s scriptures, what she wrote about, how she wrote about it but also what she couldn't write due to the historical context and how omission can still speak of power.

This study analyzes the political view of criminality and crime politics in three political parties in the Swedish parliament, Socialdemokraterna, Folkpartiet and Moderaterna. The study seeks to describe which kind of view these parties present on the criminality in our society. The material for this study is the ideologies that the parties descend from which are, socialism, liberalism and conservatism, the political programs of these three parties have also been studied as well as the parties proposals, political documents in the Swedish parliament. The current public debate shows that the crime politics is an attractive question and the parties may seem to have similar proposals on how to lower the criminality in our society. The theory that has been used to describe the results of the study is ?actors and structures? and the results are related to this theory as well as the theory has been used as an instrument to explain and sort the material and the results.The results of the study show that the parties are different in their views on criminality as a problem in our society.
