Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur 18–19-åringar värderar karriär. Detta görs utifrån de tre begreppen; autenticitet, balans och utmaning och det mångriktade karriärbegreppet. För att kartlägga och förstå värderingen av karriär används en kvantitativ och en kvalitativ undersökningsmetod. Urvalsgruppen är gymnasieelever i södra Sverige. Studien bidrar till karriärforskning i svensk kontext och bland unga som är på väg in på arbetsmarknaden, vilket inte i stor utsträckning har undersökts tidigare. Begreppen autenticitet, balans och utmaning i KCM var relevanta för urvalsgruppen, där autenticitet värderas högst. Studien presenterar nya infallsvinklar som nyanserar 18-19-åringars värdering av karriär i förhållande till KCM. Studien visar att 18–19-åringars definition av karriär är i linje det mångriktade karriärbegreppet. / The purpose of this study is to examine how 18-19-year-olds assess career based on three parameters, authenticity, balance and challenge, and the protean career concept. To identify and understand the assessment of career quantitative and qualitative research methods are used. The sample are high school students in southern Sweden. The study contributes to career research in a Swedish context and among young adults who are about to enter the labor market, which has not been examined to a large extent. The concepts authenticity, balance and challenge in KCM were relevant to the sample, and authenticity was valued most highly. The study contributes with new approaches to 18-19-year-olds assessment of career in relation to KCM. The study shows that 18-19-year-olds’ definition of career is similar with the protean career concept.

Nas últimas décadas, novas demandas e ideologias sobre a relação homem-trabalho transformaram os sentidos atribuídos ao trabalho e as formas de concebê-lo. Essas transformações redefinem o lugar desta importante atividade na sociedade e trazem a necessidade do reposicionamento do conceito de carreira e do desenvolvimento de teorias que discutem o papel do trabalhador nesse cenário. É possível identificar uma mudança no posicionamento atribuído ao trabalhador, de uma postura passiva para uma postura de agente. As críticas quanto à hegemonia dos modelos emergentes de carreira são direcionadas, de forma mais emblemática, ao papel atribuído ao indivíduo como agente de sua carreira considerando que o exercício da autonomia e da mobilidade é possível ou favorecido por suas habilidades, formações e qualificações. Em suma, esses modelos parecem desconsiderar que outros fatores como classe social, gênero e etnia podem ser limitadores desse papel de agente do indivíduo sobre sua carreira e marginaliza minorias, como mulheres, desempregados ou trabalhadores com pouca qualificação. Entre as questões que se abrigam neste hiato entre o discurso hegemônico sobre carreira e as críticas teóricas e empíricas sobre esses modelos, chama a atenção a relação entre a compreensão de carreira do indivíduo e o papel atribuído ao trabalhador com o processo de socialização, que forja a compreensão de mundo e de si mesmo. A presente dissertação tem como objetivo a investigação da relação de classe econômica e aspectos do contexto social com modelos de carreira de entrantes no mercado de trabalho. O estudo é empírico, de abordagem de dado de diferença qualitativa e frequência (quantitativa) e o procedimento técnico é por levantamento. A coleta de dados foi realizada através de uma survey eletrônica que teve como base o Critério Brasil para classificação econômica, um questionário sobre práticas culturais e o TST para identificação e análise dos modelos de carreira. A população estudada é não probabilística e intencional e formada por 150 jovens. A análise estatística descritiva foi realizada através de medidas resumo usuais, tais como média e desvio padrão (DP), mediana e mínimo (mín) e máximo (máx) para variáveis quantitativas e frequência absoluta e relativa para as variáveis categóricas. Na análise bivariada, foram utilizado o teste de Anderson-Darling (Anderson e Darling, 1954) e testes paramétricos (teste t, ANOVA e correlação de Pearson) e testes não paramétricos (Mann-Witney, Levene, Kruskal-Wallis, Tukey não paramétrico e correlação de Spearman). Para analisar o escore de carreira versus as variáveis socioeconômicas conjuntamente foi utilizado um modelo de regressão linear múltipla. O software utilizado para análises foi o R 3.1.2. e o nível de significância adotado nas análises foi de 0,05. Os resultados obtidos não apresentaram correlação significativa para classe econômica e modelos de carreira, apesar de ter uma tendência aos modelos tradicionais nas classes B e C. Também não foi identificada correlação para a maioria das variáveis quantitativas e qualitativas, exceto para as variáveis: estado civil - casado, cor preta e programa favorito - novela que se mostraram significativas estatisticamente para o modelo emergente de carreira e a variável, principal motivo para acessar a internet - enviar e-mails, significativa para o modelo tradicional. Identificando-se a necessidade de aprofundamento e o vasto espaço de pesquisa aqui demonstrado, espera-se que esse estudo sirva como convite aos pesquisadores para desenvolverem novos estudos empíricos sobre socialização e carreira, em geral, e carreira e seus impactos sobre gestão de pessoas nas organizações brasileiras / In the last decades, new demands and ideologies about the relationship between man and work are transforming the meanings attributed to work and the ways of conceiving it. These transformations redefine the place work takes in society and bring about the need to reposition the concept of career and the development of theories that discuss the role of the worker in this scenario. It is possible to identify a change in the positioning attributed to the worker, from a passive posture to an agent position. Criticisms about the hegemony of emerging career models are directed more emblematically to the role assigned to the individual as an agent of his career - considering that the exercise of autonomy and mobility is possible or favored by his skills, education and qualifications. In sum, these models seem to disregard the fact that other factors such as social class, gender and ethnicity could limit this role of the individual as agent over his career and marginalize minorities such as women, the unemployed or the low-skilled workers. Among the issues that lie in the hiatus of hegemonic career discourse and the theoretical and empirical critiques of these models, attention is drawn to the relationship between an individual\'s career understanding and the role assigned to the worker with the socialization process, which forges the understanding of the world and of himself. The present dissertation aims to investigate the relationship of economic class and aspects of the social context with the career models of entrants in the job market. This study is empirical, approaching data of qualitative difference and frequency (quantitative) and the technical procedure is by survey. The data were obtained through an electronic survey based on Critério Brasil for economic classification, a questionnaire on cultural practices and the TST for the identification and analysis of career models. The population studied is non-probabilistic and intentional and consists of 150 young adults. The descriptive statistical analysis was performed using usual summary measures, such as mean and standard deviation (SD), median and minimum (min) and maximum (max) for quantitative variables and absolute and relative frequency for categorical variables. In the bivariate analysis, the Anderson-Darling test (Anderson and Darling, 1954) and parametric tests (t test, ANOVA and Pearson\'s correlation) and non-parametric tests were used (Mann-Witney, Levene, Kruskal-Wallis, Tukey non-parametric And Spearman\'s correlation). To analyze the career score versus the socioeconomic variables together a multiple linear regression model was used. The software used for analysis was R 3.1.2. And the level of significance adopted in the analyzes was 0.05. The results obtained did not present a significant correlation for economic class and career models, despite tending to the traditional models in classes B and C. Also, no correlation was identified for most of the quantitative and qualitative variables, except for the variables: civil status - married, black and favorite program soap opera that proved statistically significant for the emerging career model and the variable, the main reason for accessing the Internet - send emails, meaningful to the traditional model. Identifying the need for deepening and the vast space for research demonstrated here, it is expected that this study will serve as an invitation to researchers to develop new empirical studies on socialization and career, in general, and career and its impacts on people management in the organizations

Women in the U.S. workforce have been a focus of scholars since the onset of the 21st century, when work-life balance skewed in favor of the term work-life integration because professional working mothers found that balance was an unachievable ideal in the fast pace of the contemporary world. Accordingly, this research study examined the work-life challenges and career choices of women working in the public sector through the framework of the Kaleidoscope Career Model (KCM). While research has been conducted on women in corporate America, there have been limited studies exploring the work-life challenges and career decisions of women working in government. The study design was phenomenological with convenience sampling of women working for state government agencies. Data were collected through a structured interview and demographic questionnaire. Data from the 7 participants were analyzed using the KCM theory and considering Mainiero and Sullivan's A-authenticity, B-balance, C-challenge parameters. Overall, findings indicated that women working in state government chose and remained in their jobs because of stability, security, and benefits. These women did not opt-out, as is common for corporate workers, because they received the flexibility and benefits required to integrate work-life balance. Corporate human resources might explore needs of their own workers using the KCM framework. Policies to retain workers might include more flexibility in scheduling and benefits for workers. This work extends applicability of the KCM to a population of which it has not been used.

Syftet med studien var att undersöka studentidrottares upplevelse av att kombinera studier påakademisk nivå med elitidrott på ett Riksidrottsuniversitet. Specifikt undersöktesstudentidrottare som inte hade någon koppling till en elitmiljö, det vill säga studentidrottaresom elitsatsade men vars idrottsförbund inte hade ett samverkansavtal med lärosätet. I studiendeltog 12 intervjupersoner, fördelat på sex kvinnor och sex män i åldrarna 19–30 (M=22.83,S=2.88). Studien använde en semistrukturerad intervjuguide baserad på den Holistiskakarriärutvecklingsmodellen (Wylleman, 2019) och Karriärövergångsmodellen (Stambulova,2003). Resultatet klassificerades in i fyra kategorier; studentidrottares upplevda krav,barriärer, resurser och copingstrategier. Resultatet påvisade att det största kravet somdeltagarna upplevde var att de måste försörja sig ekonomiskt i form av studielån eller attarbeta parallellt med kombinationen, detta kunde medföra en stor stress för deltagarna. Denfrämsta barriären deltagarna upplevde var bristande stöd från lärosätet samt att de upplevdeatt studierna och idrotten blev lidande då de inte kunde prestera lika framgångsrikt i båda,vilket kunde medföra en känsla av otillräcklighet. Vidare upplevde deltagarna att socialstöttning från tränare, familj och vänner var den främsta resursen för att underlätta ikombinationen. Planering var studentidrottarnas mest använda copingstrategi för att hanterakraven i en dubbel karriär. / The purpose of the study was to investigate student athlete's experiences of studying at aNational Sport University in Sweden. Specifically, student athletes who had no connection toan elite environment were investigated, that is, student athletes who are elite athletes butwhose sports associations did not have a collaboration agreement with the university. Thestudy included 12 interviewees, divided into six women and six men aged 19–30 (M = 22.83,S = 2.88). The study used a semi-structured interview guide based on The Holistic AthleticCareer Model (Wylleman, 2019) and The Athletic Career Transition Model (Stambulova,2003). The result was classified into four main categories; student athlete's perceiveddemands, barriers, resources and coping strategies. The result showed that the biggestdemand that the participants experienced was that they had to support themselves financiallyin terms of student loans or working in parallel with the combination, this could cause a greatdeal of stress for the participants. The main barrier the participants experienced was a lack ofsupport from the university and that they felt that the studies and the sport were suffering asthey could not perform equally successfully in both, which could cause a feeling ofinadequacy. Furthermore, the participants felt that social support from coaches, family andfriends was the primary resource for facilitating the combination. Planning was the studentathletes' most used coping strategy to handle the demands of a dual career.

The aim of the study was to examine perceived challenges and coping strategies of Swedish elite show jumpers from the holistic perspective. A mixed-methodology was used with a dominant qualitative design and a supportive quantitative design. Semi-structured interviews based on the holistic athletic career model and two surveys developed from the qualitative results were used to collect the data. The participants of the study were 5 Swedish elite show jumpers between the age of 24-29 (M=26.4, SD=2.06). The qualitative findings resulted in two category profiles of perceived challenges and use of coping strategies. The quantitative findings resulted in two individual profile for each participant. The findings identified five higher order themes of perceived challenges (psychological, financial, psycho-social, athletic and vocational) and three higher order themes of coping strategies (social support, problemfocused coping and emotion-focused coping). The individual profiles showed both similar patterns and individual nuances between the participants. Major challenges for the equestrians were financial, injuries and dealing with identity foreclosure. This study represents an effort to highlight the challenges met and coping strategies used by equestrians on elite level, to prevent ineffective coping and negative consequences such as a premature dropout. / Syftet med studien var att undersöka svenska elithoppryttares upplevda utmaningar och coping strategier utifrån ett holistiskt perspektiv. En mixad metod användes med en dominant kvalitativ design och en stödjande kvantitativ design. Semistrukturerade intervjuer baserade på den holistiska karriärutvecklingsmodellen samt två enkäter utvecklade ur det kvalitativa resultatet användes för att samla in data. Deltagarna i studien utgjordes av 5 svenska elithoppryttare i åldrarna 24-29 (M=26.4, SD=2.06). Det kvalitativa resultatet gav två kategoriprofiler av upplevda utmaningar och användandet av coping strategier. Det kvantitativa resultatet gav två individuella profiler för varje deltagare. Resultatet identifierade fem överordnade teman av upplevda utmaningar (psykologiska, finansiella, psyko-sociala, idrottsliga och yrkesmässiga) och tre överordnade teman av coping strategier (socialt stöd, problemfokuserad coping och emotionsfokuserad coping). De individuella profilerna visade både liknande mönster samt individuella nyanser mellan deltagarna. De största utmaningarna för ryttarna var finansiella, skador och att hantera en sluten idrottsidentitet. Denna studie representerar ett försök till att belysa vilka utmaningar och coping strategier som används av ryttare på elitnivå, för att undvika ineffektiv coping och negativa konsekvenser så som ofrivilligt avslut av idrottskarriär.

The aim of this study is to describe the experience of social support among female elite athletes who combine handball with higher education, with the underlying purpose to describe these persons’ experience of the functions of the support. These functions are materialistic, informative and emotional. There are ten women in the ages 22 to 24 (M=23.1, S=0,83) participating in the study. The study uses a semi-structured interview, based on two articles that studied social support (Knight et al., 2018; Schaefer et al., 1981). The result was sorted in three categories: emotional support, materialistic support and informative support. The result showed that women experienced emotional support, especially affinity, in the dual career (DC). Materialistic support was experienced in terms of support thru adjustment from coach and university. However, materialistic support was also identified lacking. Lastly, informative support, in shape of information and guidance in dual career, was experienced missing. / Syftet med studien är att beskriva upplevelsen av socialt stöd hos kvinnliga elithandbollsspelare som kombinerar elitidrott med högre utbildning, med det underliggande syftet att beskriva dessa personers upplevelser av stödets funktioner, så som materiellt, informativt och känslomässigt. I studien deltog tio kvinnor i åldrarna 22-24 år (M=23,1, S=0,83). Studien använde en semistrukturerad intervju, som var baserad på två artiklar där socialt stöd studerats (Knight et al., 2018; Schaefer et al., 1981). Resultatet sorterades i tre kategorier; känslomässigt stöd, materiellt stöd och informativt stöd. Resultatet påvisar att kvinnorna upplevde känslomässigt stöd i dubbla karriären (DK), där framför allt samhörighet med andra upplevde stötta kvinnorna. Kvinnorna upplevde också materiellt stöd, i form av anpassningar från både tränare och universitet/högskolepersonal. Resultatet visar även att flera kvinnor upplevde att de saknade denna typ av materiellt stöd i deras DK. Till sist identifierades kvinnorna uppleva att de saknade även informativt stöd i form av vägledning och information i DK.

Missbruk och beroende är idag ett utbrett samhällsproblem, på alla samhällsnivåer. Samtidigt som det finns ett stigma kring missbruk har antalet offentliga personer som berättar om sina erfarenheter av missbruk ökat. Studiens syfte har varit att genom kvalitativ tematisk textanalys analysera självbiografier av sju kända svenska män som berättar om sitt missbruk. Vi har undersökt hur droganvändning och dess orsaker skildras i kändisarnas självbiografier. Resultaten har kodats och tematiserats för att kunna besvara frågeställningen. Analysen innefattar förklaringsmodeller (samsjuklighet, självmedicinering, karriärmodell, skam och vändpunkt) som socialarbetare använder när de beskriver hur det kommer sig att vissa personer använder droger. Resultaten visar att berättelser om samsjuklighet, självmedicinering och tillfrisknande från droganvändning är snarlika, om än med individuella skillnader. Slutsatsen är att de ger en inblick i missbruk som kan vara till hjälp i att förstå och hjälpa personer som använder droger. / Addiction and drug dependency have become widespread social problems in all layers of society. While there is always a stigma around drug abuse, the number of public figures willing to share their experiences on the issue has increased. The purpose of the study was to analyse the autobiographies of seven famous Swedish men, writing about their addiction, using qualitative thematic text analysis. We have explored how we can gain a greater understanding of drug use and its causes, and how it is portrayed in autobiographies. The analysis contains selected explanatory models (comorbidity, self-medication, career model, shame and turning point) that social workers use when describing how and why a person is using drugs. Results have been coded and thematized in order to answer the questions at hand. The results show that stories on recovery from drug use are often quite similar, albeit with individual differences. The results give an insight into addiction which can help understanding and helping people affected by addiction.
