Hjärttransplantation - Chansen till ett nytt livDuda, Therese, Olsson Lindgren, Jenny January 2006 (has links)
Utan ett hjärta kan inte livet fortskrida. Ibland händer det att enda utvägen för att överleva är att genomgå en hjärttransplantation. Kan en hjärttransplantation genomföras utan psykisk påverkan och hur finner mottagarna tillbaka till det liv de hade innan hjärtsjukdomen. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa hjärttransplanterade individers psykologiska upplevelser efter en hjärttransplantation. Frågeställningarna var: Hur beskriver mottagaren som genomgått en hjärttransplantation upplevelsen av att ha en annan människas hjärta? Hur beskriver mottagaren sin strategi för att hitta tillbaka till det liv han/hon hade innan hjärttransplantationen? Hur beskriver mottagaren upplevelsen över att de fick leva på grund av någon annans död. Genom systematisk litteraturgranskning har nio vetenskapliga artiklar valts ut som kritiskt granskats enligt Carlsson och Eiman (2003) och sedan analyserats och bearbetats. I resultatet redovisas fyra teman som har identifierats: skuldkänslor gentemot donatorn och dennes familj, tacksamhet för en andra chans, coping för att hantera känslor och återgå till det dagliga livet, attityder mot det nya hjärtat och donatorn. Studien visar att det finns psykologiska aspekter såsom förnekelse och fantasier som sjuksköterskan bör ha i åtanke. / Without a heart life cannot continue. Sometimes undergoing heart transplantation is the only way to survive. Can a heart transplantation be done without psychological influence and how does the receiver find the way back to life as it was before the heart disease. The aim of this literature study was to illuminate heart transplantated individual’s psychological experiences after heart transplantation. The research questions were: How does the receiver who went through heart transplantation describe the experience of having another person’s heart? How does the receiver describe ones strategy to find the way back to the life he/she had before the heart transplantation? How does the receiver describe the experience that they live because of somebody else’s death? Through systematic literature review nine scholarly articles have been chosen and critically examined according to Carlsson and Eiman (2003) then analysed and processed. Four themes were identified and are presented under findings: feelings of guilt towards the donor and his/her family, gratitude for a second chance, coping to handle feelings and returning to daily life, attitudes towards the new heart and the donor. This study shows various psychological aspects such as denial and fantasies, which nurses should consider.

Gratitude Training for Promoting Subjective Well-Being: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Journaling to a Personalized Menu ApproachDeichman, Conner Lee 21 June 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Research suggests a link between gratitude and subjective well-being exists. Research on gratitude practices have shown to increase gratitude, subjective well-being, and other related outcomes. However, the efficacy of gratitude practices may be limited by the rote application of the gold standard gratitude practice--the gratitude journal. Such findings suggest that a more comprehensive, adaptable, and flexible gratitude practice may be needed. This study examined the efficacy of the My Best Self 101 (MBS101) gratitude module: an online gratitude resource that provides psychoeducation about gratitude along with a menu of empirically based gratitude practices. Using a randomized controlled design method, this study compared using the MBS101 gratitude module to using a gratitude journal for 21 days. The sample consisted of 225 adults recruited online and through university research systems. Seemingly unrelated regression models were used to analyze gratitude and subjective well-being outcomes between groups as well as the interaction between time spent on gratitude practice and group assignment. Compared to the gratitude journaling group, the MBS101 group had significantly better outcomes on gratitude and subjective well-being. Additionally, when the time and group interaction was added, the MBS101 group had greater increases in benefits for gratitude and subjective well-being with increased time spent. Further research is required to support these findings.

Det är för er jag orkar kämpa : Mödrars upplevelse av att leva med obotlig cancersjukdom / It is for you that I have the courage to fight : Mothers' experience of living with incurable cancerFlink, Matilda, Johansson Hadzic, Johanna January 2022 (has links)
Bakgrund: Närmare hälften av de som drabbas av cancer i Sverige är kvinnor, och vissa av dessa kvinnor är mödrar som fått diagnosen obotlig cancer. När en patient drabbats av obotlig cancer blir den palliativa vården central. De fyra hörnstenarna tillsammans med den personcentrerade modellen de 6 S:n blir grunden i hur vården kan utformas. Syfte: Examensarbetets syfte var att belysa mödrars upplevelse av att leva med obotlig cancer. Metod: En kvalitativ metod där datainsamlingen bestod av sju bloggar. En analys av narrativer användes enligt Dahlborgs modell. Resultat: Resultatet utgjordes av tre huvudkategorier; Känslan av maktlöshet, Livets oundvikliga förändring och, Leva i nuet, tillsammans med sex underkategorier. Konklusion: Obotlig cancer medförde både fysiskt och psykiskt lidande för mödrarna där de upplevde begränsningar i sin roll som mamma. Detta medförde att de existentiella tankarna och känslorna blev oundvikliga och svårhanterliga. Samtidigt visade resultatet att mödrarna fick livskraft genom förmågan att leva i nuet och reflektera kring vad som var viktigt och värdefullt för dem. Sjuksköterskor behöver vidareutveckla sin kompetens kring den personcentrerade palliativa vården för att kunna vårda och bemöta denna patientgrupp på bästa möjliga sätt. / Background: Almost half of those affected by cancer in Sweden are women, and some of these women are mothers who have been diagnosed with incurable cancer. When a patient suffers from incurable cancer, palliative care becomes central. The four cornerstones, together with the person-centered model of the 6 S's, will form the basis of how care will be designed. Aim: The purpose of the thesis was to shed light on mothers' experience of living with incurable cancer. Method: A qualitative method where the data collection consisted of seven blogs. An analysis of narratives was used according to Dahlborg's model. Findings: The results were identified by three main categories; The feeling of powerlessness, Life's inevitable change and Living in the moment, along with six subcategories. Conclusion: Incurable cancer caused both physical and psychological suffering for the mothers and they experienced limitations in their role as mothers. This meant that the existential thoughts and feelings became unavoidable and difficult to handle. At the same time, the results showed that the mothers gained vitality through the ability to live in the present and reflect on what was important and valuable to them. Nurses need to further develop their competence in person-centred palliative care in order to care for and respond to this patient group in the best possible way.

Gratitude and Sleep Quality in Primary Care: Mediating Effects of Health Self-Efficacy, Health Behaviors, and PsychopathologyAltier, Heather R. 01 August 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Sleep disturbances are prevalent among primary care patients, and psychological dysfunction, including stress, anxiety, and depression, are robust contributors to poor sleep health. Yet, the presence of potential protective characteristics, such as health self-efficacy and engaging in adaptive health behaviors, may mitigate such outcomes. Gratitude (i.e., recognition and appreciation of experiences, relationships, and surroundings), a positive psychological cognitive-emotional characteristic, may serve as a catalyst of these beneficial downstream effects, given its association with improved health functioning and sleep. In a sample of primary care patients (N = 869) from 50 urban and 30 rural practices in Germany, health self-efficacy (i.e., belief in ability to perform necessary actions to manage health) and constructive health behaviors (i.e., actions taken to modify health positively), separately and together as parallel first-order mediators, and stress, anxiety, and depression, as parallel second-order mediators, were investigated as potential serial mediators of the association between gratitude and sleep disturbances. Participants completed self-report measures in person and online. Significant serial mediation was observed across models, although effects varied. In the first model, gratitude was associated with greater health self-efficacy and, in turn, to less stress, anxiety, and depression, and fewer consequent sleep disturbances. In the second model, health behaviors, and anxiety and depression, were serial mediators, but health behaviors and stress were not. In a final combined model, serial mediation occurred on two pathways, health self-efficacy and anxiety, and health self-efficacy and depression, and a specific indirect effect was found for health behaviors, but not self-efficacy. Gratitude was associated with reduced sleep disturbances through positive health behavior engagement, and via the serial mediation effects of greater health self-efficacy and lower psychological distress. Clinical interventions that enhance gratitude (e.g., gratitude listing or diaries), self-efficacy (e.g., disease self-management programs), or health behavior engagement (e.g., weight management programs) may promote favorable downstream effects on psychological distress and sleep disturbances among primary care patients.

Effects of perceived social isolation, fear of social isolation and gratitude during COVID-19 pandemic on anxiety in MalaysiaTan, C.Y., Ng, J.Y., Lin, M.H., Yong, Min Hooi 20 October 2023 (has links)
Yes / Many governments including Malaysia imposed movement restrictions as public health measure to minimize COVID-19 (coronavirus) risks. Due to prolonged isolation, poorer physical and mental health is expected in the general population. Our aims were to examine (1) the mediating role of perceived social isolation (SI) and fear of social isolation (FSI) on the relationship between gratitude and anxiety, and (2) to explore the moderating role of age, education and socioeconomic status (SES) on the mediation model. A total of 427 participants currently living in Malaysia (Mage = 37.90, SD = 16.51, 313 females) completed a survey on isolation, gratitude and anxiety during a period of national lockdown. Results showed that that those with higher gratitude reported having less SI and FSI and less anxiety (Model 1). In Model 2 with age as moderator, young adults (YA) and middle-aged adults (MA) who had higher gratitude experienced lower SI and in turn had lowered anxiety, but such mediating role of SI was not observed among older adults (OA). As for FSI, MA who had higher gratitude had lower FSI and also lower anxiety but this relationship was not observed in YA or OA. We also examined the role of education and SES as moderators in the parallel mediation analysis. Results showed that the indirect association of gratitude with anxiety via FI and FSI was moderated by both education and SES. Specifically, among those with low education levels (regardless of SES), those with higher gratitude had lower SI and FSI which in turn reduced anxiety. This relationship is similar for those with medium level of education and from low and middle level of SES as well. Our findings highlight the importance of having some coping mechanism e.g., gratitude and social connection during the pandemic to have higher wellbeing and quality of life, especially for MA sample and people from low education and SES background. / This work was supported by Newton Fund Institutional Links grant ID: 331745333, under Newton-Ungku Omar Fund partnership to MHY.

The Trickle-Down Effects of Manager Gratitude ExpressionKane, Meghan E 01 January 2024 (has links) (PDF)
Gratitude is an emotion with a number of positive benefits for both individuals and organizations; however, very little research has addressed the role of leaders in influencing the gratitude of those they lead. Organizational leaders can increase the gratitude levels of the leaders who report to them, who then can influence the gratitude of their own subordinates. This study addresses how the emotion of gratitude can trickle-down through two levels of an organizational hierarchy. There are two potential theories to support such trickle-down effects of gratitude: a behavioral explanation in social learning theory and an affective explanation in gratitude as an emotional contagion. Social learning theory can explain how gratitude trickles via the influence role models (i.e., leaders) have on the behavior of those below them. In addition, gratitude as an emotional contagion can unconsciously increase feelings of gratitude after experiencing gratitude expressions and these feelings of gratitude should increase the spread of gratitude to others. An experimental study design consisting of students acting as supervisors and subordinates evaluating email manipulations was used to test the hypotheses. The results from this study support the idea that gratitude can spread from upper-level leaders to lower levels in an organizational hierarchy. In addition, results suggest that this relationship is positively mediated by role modeling effects supporting the behavioral explanation of trickle-down effects. However, results did not support emotional contagion theory as a mechanism that explains trickle-down effects. Such findings offer important implications as leaders can play a significant role in spreading the positive effects of gratitude throughout their organization.

Unframing existence : an ethical and theological appropriation of Heidegger's critique of modernityAtkins, Zohar January 2014 (has links)
This thesis argues that Heidegger’s thought offers crucial insights into the structural challenges that modernity poses to being an ethical and religious person. I argue that these difficulties come down to an instrumentalist conception of truth, a denial or repression of finitude as the condition of meaningfulness, and a philosophical anthropology that is both too subjectivistic and too objectivistic. Yet while Heidegger was good on the diagnosis, he was reluctant to give more than digressive and opaque prescriptions to these problems. My thesis seeks to respond to this lacuna by putting Heidegger’s critical observations in the service of articulating a positive religious ethics. To that end, it seeks to locate—as well as redefine from an ontological perspective—the human dispositions and practices that expose truth in a non-instrumental light, that show finitude as a positive condition of meaningfulness, and that reveal the essence of the human being in non-subjectivist and non- objectivist terms. I argue that these include listening and gratitude—dispositions and practices I claim should form the backbone of any religious ethics, and yet which I also claim should not be limited to those who believe in a personal, theistic God. My thesis contributes to the fields of modern theology and Heidegger Studies in four ways. First, it shows that Heidegger’s critics (such as Levinas and Adorno) are wrong to oppose ontology to ethics. Second, it shows that Heidegger’s critics (such as Marion and Jonas) are wrong to oppose ontology to theology. Third, it shows that Heidegger’s own ambivalence about the ethical and theological relevance of his thought allows for the development of a deeply ethical and theological posture. And fourth, it offers a unique, post-Heideggerian interpretation of gratitude, one in which it is understood as a structure of Dasein that is both “always already” and “not yet” operative.
