This is a qualitative study based on interviews held with three professionals working in the field of Animal Assisted therapy. The study looks at the effect of Animal Assisted therapy in work with people experiencing different issues or health problems, mainly children and young adults. The purpose has been to get an understanding of the work and the different relations that occur in sessions using animals and how the participation of an animal in the session can be beneficial in the healing process. The results have been related to previous research and analysed using the Attachment theory and the Self-Determination Theory.Animals are known for spreading calmness and help with self-esteem, things that can be very useful in work with humans. The animals become a bridge to create a relationship and a trust between caregiver and client which leads to faster being able to get started with the therapeutic work. In the field of social work the caregiver will come in contact with people with all different sorts of history and need for help and support. This study shows positive effects of Animal Assisted therapy in multiple different settings and target groups. This should be reason enough for the method to be a solid part of the social work practice. Despite this, the method is not as established as the caregivers in the field would have wished. They all report seeing great advantages in using animals in their work and a high recovery rate with their clients. This is also seen in the studies made in the field.

We developed a study about this genre using books for children and young adults that identify themselves with the stories, the characters and the adventures. We analyzed the mystery narrative construction in the children s universe, from the novels O caso da estranha fotografia (1977), by Stella Carr; Berenice detetive (1987), by João Carlos Marinho; and Droga de Americana! (1999), by Pedro Bandeira. These writers stories were created with children and young adults in the role of investigators. During the analysis, we emphasized the characterization of the members from the different young adults and children groups and their actions as detectives. In the first chapter, we focused the detective stories in general and their evolution. The second chapter discusses the literature for children focusing in the writers of the works mentioned above. During the two last chapters, we analyzed the three books and the structure of the detective stories for children and young adults. / O objetivo do presente trabalho é estudar o romance policial, um gênero literário que instiga a curiosidade do público jovem e adulto desde a primeira até a última página de um livro. Desenvolvemos um estudo desse gênero em obras voltadas para o público infanto-juvenil que se identifica com as histórias, personagens e aventuras. Analisamos a construção da narrativa policial no universo infantil dos romances O caso da estranha fotografia (1977), de Stella Carr; Berenice detetive (1987), de João Carlos Marinho; e Droga de Americana!

A presente pesquisa tem como objeto duas diferentes versões de narrativa juvenil de Lygia Bojunga; a primeira delas é 7 Cartas e 2 Sonhos, publicada em 1982, contando com reproduções de nove pinturas de Tomie Ohtake e a segunda é O Meu Amigo Pintor, trazido ao público, sem as referidas ilustrações, em 1987, pela Editora José Olympio - republicada em 2006 pela editora Casa Lygia Bojunga, contendo o posfácio Para Você que Me Lê, com informações sobre o processo criativo dessas duas obras. Investiga-se, dessa forma, o contato da escritora com as nove imagens pictóricas ohtakeanas, que inspiraram a criação de um texto literário para o projeto Arte para Crianças e Jovens da Berlendis & Vertecchia Editores, reunindo arte literária e arte pictórica num mesmo suporte o livro com ilustração. Para tanto, se pretende estudar o diálogo entre aspectos verbais e visuais presentes na primeira obra, que, por sua vez, culminaram no refazer literário de Lygia Bojunga, que, ao reescrever a narrativa, transformou-a em outra, sem a presença do suporte artístico de Tomie Ohtake. As histórias de 7 Cartas e 2 Sonhos e O Meu Amigo Pintor são contadas por um narrador que está na passagem da infância para a adolescência, período em que se depara com o suicídio de seu melhor amigo um artista, pintor. Nesse prisma, objetiva-se investigar ainda como se deu o processo de reescrita da primeira para a segunda versão do texto literário bojunguiano, analisando os resultados dessa transformação. Partiremos do pressuposto de que os presentes estudos são importantes para instaurar uma reflexão crítica sobre o papel da literatura destinada às crianças e jovens, na vertente de sua criação e recriação artística, com e sem a dimensão suplementar da arte pictórica. / This research has as study object two different versions of young narrative by Lygia Bojunga: the first one is 7 Cartas e 2 Sonhos, published in 1982, with nine reproductions of paintings by Tomie Ohtake, and the second one is O Meu Amigo Pintor, published, without the illustrations, in 1987, by the publisher José Olympio republished in 2006 by Casa Lygia Bojunga, with the afterstate Para Você que Me Lê (For You Who Read Me), with information about the creative process of these two works.

This thesis investigates the construction of role models, more specifically literary didactics and constructions of subject positions, in literary works with exemplary stories in Swedish 1400–1750, from the perspective of literature for children and young adults. Childhood concepts, didactic concepts and subject positions presented to the reader are analyzed from the point of view of dominance and dissonance between different characters and messages. A number of themes have been chosen for a comparative study, for example: ideas about identification, the construction of subject positions and ideals for girls, the responsibility of adults, subversive tendencies, obedience or autonomy, the immoral role model as exemplary, conflicts between different childhood concepts, adults and children as role models. A central conclusion is that there is variation when it comes to the subject positions that are constructed for children and young adults, mainly through role models. There are examples of authoritative teachings that demands the subordination and obedience of the reader/recipient, as well as encouragement of questioning and even contra conventional subject positions. One conclusion is that premodern literature for the young does not just have an authoritative tone towards the reader, but the texts also negotiates with the reader. The messages are not just about obedience and religious fidelity, but also about learning, questioning and personal, moral responsibility. A critical perspective on adults is encouraged through critizism of adults and exemplary role models. Subject positions for girls also vary in the texts. Some texts convey conventional, passive gender roles while others present active subject positions, where chastity, wisdom and manliness are presented as ideal virtues for girls.

The aim of this study is to analyze school counselors' experience regarding their work with children living under difficult home conditions. The objective is the counselors' view on their profession, their perceived mandate within their professional role, and the resources allocated to them. The method applied in this study is a qualitative approach. The data collection is characterized by interviews conducted with seven school counselors. Previous research has shown that the professional role as school counselor is unclear, and that the profession lacks precise policies. In research studies, Lipsky's theory of grassroots bureaucrats has been used, where we also have chosen to use the informal and formal scope. Through analysis, the result has shown that several of the school counselors perceive their professional role as undefined. Some of the school counselors said that they appreciate the unclear role because it provides them with an extensive and flexible mandate within their professional role. Furthermore the result shows that the school counselors perceive that some laws, such as the confidentiality law for example, limits their professional mandate. In the realm of available resources, the result has shown that most school counselors experience insufficient resources, often in the form of time and lack of competence development. Overall the school counselors experience limitations within their role and there are thus opportunities for development.
