Dagens svenska arbetsmarknad är i förändringsfasen där tillsvidareanställningen inte är lika dominerande. Istället eftersträvar alltfler en mer flexibel arbetssituation vilket kan liknas vid att frilansa. Det har myntat begreppet gig-ekonomi som innebär att individer hyr ut sig själva på projektbasis. Trots att det finns en strävan efter en mer flexibel arbetsmarknad är det fortfarande många som söker en tillsvidareanställning men har fastnat i en tidsbegränsad anställning. De olika anställningsformerna har skapat debatt i Sverige och fokuserar främst på konsekvenserna för arbetstagaren. Syftet med vår studie är att bidra med kunskap om vilka konsekvenser tidsbegränsade anställningar har för organisationen. För att besvara vår frågeställning har vi valt en kvalitativ metod och genomfört en fallstudie. Vårt empiriska material består främst av intervjuer och observationer på en skola. För att analysera vårt material används teorier som beskriver organisationens uppbyggnad samt behandlar individen, gruppen, mellanchefen och den strategiska ledningen. Vår övergripande slutsats är att tidsbegränsade anställningar har en påverkan på samtliga nivåer i organisationen. Den tidsbegränsade anställningen skapar osäkerhet för både individen och gruppen vilket kan hämma organisationens effektivitet. / The current Swedish labor market is changing. Permanent positions are no longer as dominant and instead, many people are looking for a more flexible working situation, much like freelancing. This has led to the newly coined term “gig-economy”, which practically means that organizations contract with independent workers for short- term engagements. However, there are still many who seek a permanent position, but might be stuck in a temporary position. The use of temporary positions has become more common in several sectors which has created a debate in Sweden. The debate focuses mainly on the consequences for the individual worker. The purpose of our study is to contribute with knowledge on what consequences temporary employment has for the organization. To fulfill our purpose, we’ve chosen to use a qualitative method to conduct a case study. Our empirical material consists mainly of interviews and observations at an elementary school. In order to analyze our material, we’ve used theories which describe the organizational structure and which addresses the individual, the group as well as the middle- and strategic management. Our general conclusion is that temporary employment has an impact on all levels of the organization. The temporary positions create insecurity for both the individual and the group and it can hamper the organizations efficiency.

Unintended consequences of electronic health records represent undesired effects on individuals or systems, which may contradict initial goals and impact patient care. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which a new quantitative measure called the Carrington-Gephart Unintended Consequences of Electronic Health Record Questionnaire (CG-UCE-Q) was valid and reliable. Then, it was used to describe acute care nurses' experience with unintended consequences of electronic health records and relate them to the professional practice environment. Acceptable content validity was achieved for two rounds of surveys with nursing informatics experts (n = 5). Then, acute care nurses (n = 144) were recruited locally and nationally to complete the survey and describe the frequency with which they encounter unintended consequences in daily work. Principal component analysis with oblique rotation was applied to evaluate construct validity. Correlational analysis with measures of the professional practice environment and workarounds was used to evaluate convergent validity. Test-retest reliability was measured in the local sample (N = 68). Explanation for 63% of the variance across six subscales (patient safety, system design, workload issues, workarounds, technology barriers, and sociotechnical impact) supported construct validity. Relationships were significant between subscales for electronic health record-related threats to patient safety and low autonomy/leadership (P < .01), poor communication about patients (P < .01), and low control over practice (P < .01). The most frequent sources of unintended consequences were increased workload, interruptions that shifted tasks from the computer, altered workflow, and the need to duplicate data entry. Convergent validity of the CG-UCE-Q was moderately supported with both the context and processes of workarounds with strong relationships identified for when nurses perceived a block and altered process to work around it to subscales in the CG-UCE-Q for electronic health record system design (P < .01) and technological barriers (P < .01).

Background: Psychonautics is a scientific method used to describe intoxication and effects of psychoactive substances and a form of recognition used by some in order to achieve self- experience and transcendence. Hallucinogenic and psychedelic substances most commonly used for this purpose can possess therapeutical, but also destructive potential, how many researches on the psychedelic therapy topic have shown. During auto-experiments, these substances are being used in nonclinical environment and often without professional or other control, which can lead to many risks, but also benefits. Aim: The goal is to understand the way of psychonautics self-defining through statements and actions of psychonauts. The main goal is to describe a pattern of drug use, subjective consequences and meaning of psychoactive substances use in the lives of the psychonauts from their point of view. Sample: Research set consisted of 5 respondents chosen based on two methods - the snowball method and intended selection. Methods: The used method of data collection was a semistructured interview, in which the collected data was analysed by the clustering method and pattern recording method and an online questionnaire that has been evaluated based on descriptive analysis principles by an answer sheet. Results:...

Sexuální zneužívání dětí Sexual abuse of children Petra Dvořáková This work describes the sexual abuse of children. The main objective was to create a work that would form a coherent and comprehensive view on this issue. The thesis contains a theoretical and practical part. The practical part includes qualitative research. The research consists of five case studies. These case studies show the sexual abuse of children in practice. The goal of the practical part is the description of cases of sexual abuse, evaluation, comparison of results and identification of common features that appear in the case studies and also in the theoretical part of my work. The analyses of case studies show that the perpetrator was always the family. The consequences of sexual abuse that emerged from the case studies, agree with your description of the theoretical part. In most cases, it was a long- term consequence. The last chapter of the thesis is called prevention. This chapter is the most important of the whole work. It is important to focus not only on the treatment of sexually abused children, but also the environment in which the social and legal protection of children is provided. You need to focus on processes and procedures work with victims and perpetrators of sexual abuse. The aim of the whole society should...

This archival and qualitative research adds insight into the psychosocial consequences females of sexual victimization incur. Sexual abuse is a pervasive, complex societal problem experienced by 30%-46% of American females. The psychosocial consequences are numerous, often severe, and can result in death. They include: anxiety, BPD, denial, dependence, despair, eating disorders, destructive relationships, fear, guilt, hallucinations, helplessness, hopelessness, hysteria, insecurity, isolation, MPD, nightmares, numbness, passivity, pessimism, phobias, PTSD, rage, self-loathing, sexual dysfunctions, shame, shock, sleeping disorders, stigmatization, stress-related disorders, substance abuse, and suicide. The severity of psychosocial consequences to female victims varies greatly depending upon the degree, duration, and emotion surrounding the abuse, the victim's health, and the health of the victim's social network. In conclusion, strategies suggested in the literature to combat female sexual victimization are outlined.
