Diploma thesis "The course and long-term effects of animation as a method of working with adolescents" deals with the methods of working with endangered youth in the field and in the low-threshold facility for children and youth. It represents the reflection of the development of the methodology of the work of a particular organization in the Vltava housing estate in České Budějovice in the perspective of six years, when the author also worked here with a break. This time perspective makes it possible to help assess whether and to what extent the chosen approach appears to be effective. Above all, it allows to monitor the development of clients' life paths during a sensitive period from adolescence to adulthood. The potential of animation over other guiding and prevention systems can be to focus on activation, respect for life situations and the needs of clients, which are largely developmental, but also reflects social and psychological deficits in specific individual cases as well as in group life. Phenomenologically and ethnographically oriented research follows the previous author's qualification work and monitors the development of the contact center client community in the context of workers' suggestions and spontaneous life events. It is also complemented by a trio of individual case studies...

Bakgrund: Personer med funktionsnedsättning är mindre fysiskt aktiva, upplever sämre livsvillkor och mindre delaktighet än övriga befolkningen. Fysisk aktivitet på recept (FaR) uppvisar evidens och utvecklingspotential för att öka fysisk aktivitet hos personer med funktionsnedsättningar. Enligt Socialstyrelsen behöver antalet förskrivna FaR öka för särskilda utsatta grupper. Således behövs mer kunskap om fysioterapeuters erfarenheter av att förskriva av FaR till personer med funktionsnedsättningar och därigenom stödja beteendeförändring. Syfte: Att undersöka fysioterapeuters erfarenheter av att förskriva fysisk aktivitet på recept (FaR) till personer med funktionsnedsättning med fokus på hur de stödjer beteendeförändring av fysisk aktivitetsnivå. Metod: Kvalitativ semistrukturerad intervjustudie och deskriptiv design, där induktiv kvalitativ innehållsanalys användes vid analys av materialet. Resultat: Analysen gav tolv underkategorier fördelade på fyra kategorier: Att beakta skäl till förskrivning och beteendeförändring, Att skapa förståelse för förskrivningen hos brukare och nätverk, Att hitta fungerande aktivitet samt Att stödja en beteendeförändring. Genom dessa beskrev fysioterapeuterna sina erfarenheter. Slutsats: Fysioterapeuternas erfarenheter av att förskriva FaR till personer med funktionsnedsättning och därigenom stödja beteendeförändring av fysisk aktivitetsnivå, beskrev en utmanande och komplex uppgift. Omgivningsrelaterade faktorer som ekonomi och aktivitetsutbud kan ibland hindra förskrivning och beteendeförändring hos brukare, trots att fysioterapeuterna skapat förutsättningar. Detta kan försvåra uppgiften att stödja en marginaliserad grupp till ökad fysisk aktivitet. / Background: Individuals with disabilities are less physically active, report lower  life conditions and a lower participation then the rest of the population. Physical activity on prescription (PAP) show a high degree of evidence and potential for development to improve the physical activity among people with disabilities. The amount of PAP within vulnerable groups needs to increase according to the National guidelines from the National board of Health & Welfare. Therefore more knowledge are needed about physiotherapist’s experiences of prescribing PAP to support behavior change for individuals with disabilities. Aim: The aim was to explore physiotherapist’s experiences of prescribing physical activity on prescription (PAP) for individuals with disabilities with the focus on behavior change towards increased physical activity. Method: A qualitative, semi structured interview study with descriptive design. An inductive, qualitative content analysis were used when analyzing the material. Result: The analysis resulted in twelve subcategories divided into four main categories: Reasons considered when prescribing and for behavior change, To create understanding among patients and their community about the prescription, To find a suitable activity and last To support behavior change. The physiotherapist’s within the study used these categories to depict their experiences. Conclusion: The physiotherapist’s experiences when prescribing physical activity on prescription for individuals with disabilities and to support their behavior change towards increased physical activity depicted a challenging and complex task. Environment-related factors such as economy and the availability of activities could hinder the prescription and patient’s behavior change despite preconditions created by the physiotherapist’s. This could hinder the task of supporting a marginalized group towards improvements in physical activity.

Esta tese focaliza a formação do campo literário direcionado a crianças e jovens, em Mato Grosso e perfaz o surgimento de um cânone contemporâneo. Para isso, adotamos os estudos teóricos de Bordieu (1996, 2012) e Candido (2000). As implicações do postulado teórico desses críticos foram valiosas, a partir do momento que nos permitiu perceber a posição do autor literário e avaliar o valor e a pertinência de suas obras em determinadas configurações sociais. Primeiramente, apresentamos um estudo sobre a História da Literatura infanto-juvenil mato-grossense, a partir dos primeiros textos literários direcionados a esse público, publicados em periódicos como A Juventude (1916 a 1917), ou em jornais escolares como O Pequeno Mensageiro (1920) e O Liceu (1930), os quais foram responsáveis por ações e pela representação da criança dentro desse universo da escrita. Além disso, foram mapeadas mais de 70 obras infanto-juvenis para se chegar a um primeiro quadro de 26 (vinte e seis) publicadas por editoras em Mato Grosso. Levamos também em conta as obras de autores que publicaram fora do Estado como Antônio de Pádua e Silva e Aclyse de Mattos. Análises mais profundas foram feitas a partir do que consideramos marcos da produção local, a saber: Dunga Rodrigues, Uma aventura em Mato Grosso (1984); Maria da Graça Campos, As meninas e o sabiá (1987), primeiras obras da literatura infanto-juvenil mato-grossense após a divisão do Estado, e Lucinda Persona, A cidade sem Sol (2000) e Ivens Scaff, Uma maneira simples de voar (2006), representativos da produção contemporânea. Foram verificadas as tendências estéticas, os temas, as formas e os recursos visuais que moldaram essas obras, assim como a incidência dos níveis estéticos e utilitários. Suporte teórico fundamental, neste último capítulo, são os estudos de Mendes (1994), necessários para detectar os nossos parâmetros de análise. A conjunção da História e da Crítica literária, embasada nas análises de obras direcionadas ao público infanto-juvenil, é a força motriz deste estudo / This thesis is concerned with the formation of the literary field directly to children and young in Mato Grosso and, make up the beginning of a contemporary canon. With this view, we adopt the theoretical studies of Bordieu (1996, 2012) and Candido (2000). The implications of the theoretical postulate of these scientists were valuable which allowed us to recognize the position of literary author and estimate the value and relevance of their works in certain social settings. Foremost, we present a study about the History of Mato-grossense childrens Literature, from the first literary texts directed to this audience, published by periodic like A Juventude (1916 to 1917) or in school newspaper like O Pequeno Mensageiro (1920) and O Liceu (1930), they were responsible for actions and for the representation of the child within this writing universe. Furthermore, were mapped more than 70 children and youth works to achieve to the first chart with 26 (twenty-six) printed by publishers in Mato Grosso. We also consider the works that their authors have published in other place out of state like Antônio de Pádua e Silva and Aclyse de Mattos. Deeper analysis were made from what we consider mark of the local production, videlicet: Dunga Rodrigues, Uma aventura em Mato Grosso (1984); Maria da Graça Campos, As meninas e o sabiá (1987), first works of the mato-grossense childrens literature after the separation of the State and Lucinda Persona, A cidade sem sol (2000) and Ivens Scaff, Uma maneira simples de voar (2006), typical of contemporary production. The aesthetics trends, themes, forms and the visual features which shaped these works were verified, so well as the incidence of aesthetics levels and utilities in these productions. Fundamental theoretical support. In the last chapter, there are the studies of Mendes (1994), required to detect our analysis parameters. The conjunction of the History and the Book review, grounded in the analysis of works directed to children and youth, is the driving force of this study
