Karriärcoaching och dess påverkan på den prestationsbaserade självkänslan.Bergsten, Madelene, Grahn, Kristina January 2006 (has links)
Karriärcoaching är en tjänst som ökat kraftigt på den svenska marknaden. Tidigare studier inom området har visat att en stark självkänsla stärker en persons hälsa och underlättar för denne att hantera problem. Syftet med studien var att undersöka om karriärcoaching har någon påverkan på prestationsbaserad självkänsla, känslan av kontroll (Locus of Control) samt självbemästring av tankar och känslor (Self-Efficacy). Genom en enkätundersökning har en grupp som genomfört karriärcoaching jämförts med en kontrollgrupp som ej genomfört karriärcoaching. Ett oberoende t-test gav en signifikant skillnad i Locus of Control (p<.05). I den grupp som genomfört karriärcoaching fann vi ett negativt samband mellan faktorerna Locus of Control och prestationsbaserad självkänsla (p<.01). En två-vägs ANOVA visade en interaktionseffekt mellan karriärcoaching och kön (p<.01), vilket kan indikera att män kan sänka sin prestationsbaserade självkänsla efter genomförd karriärcoaching och att det finns tendenser att karriärcoaching överlag kan öka en persons Locus of Control.

Upplevelse av delaktighet hos vuxna med lindrig utvecklingsstörningCedergren, Mariah January 2007 (has links)
Levnadsvillkoren för individer med utvecklingsstörning har under de senaste decennierna förändrats till det bättre. Att känna sig delaktig i sitt liv och ha möjligheten att själv påverka livssituationen är viktigt för dessa människor. Uppsatsförfattaren ville med den här studien undersöka om skillnad finns i hur aspekter av delaktighet uppfattas av två grupper; individer med utvecklingsstörning och personer i deras omgivning. En enkätstudie genomfördes med en omarbetad version av ”The Arc’s Self-Determination Scale” (Wehmeyer, 1995).En rangkorrelation visade på samband mellan vissa frågeområden. Resultatet diskuteras i relation till tidigare forskning och till svårigheter att undersöka upplevelser hos personer med utvecklingsstörning.

Use of prenatal testing, emotional attachment to the fetus and fetal health locus of controlTurriff-Jonasson, Shelley I 24 August 2004
This study examines the relationship between maternal emotional attachment to the fetus, beliefs about fetal health locus of control, and use of prenatal testing (i.e., amniocentesis and maternal serum screening). To date, no research has directly addressed the link between these psychosocial variables and prenatal testing uptake. Ninety-one pregnant women at risk for fetal abnormalities (i.e., 35 years of age or older) participated in the study, of whom 35 had no testing, 27 had serum screening, and 29 had amniocentesis in their current pregnancy.
Results of a hierarchical multiple regression partially supported the hypothesis that internal and powerful others Fetal Health Locus of Control (Labs & Wurtele, 1986) and prenatal testing status would be predictive of attachment (Prenatal Attachment Inventory; Muller, 1993) over and above the effects of gestational age, maternal age and attitude toward abortion. Fetal Health Locus of Control beliefs regarding ones own role (FHLC-I) in determining the health of ones fetus were found to be predictive of prenatal attachment. Results failed to support the hypothesis that the role of health professionals (FHLC-P) would be predictive of prenatal attachment. As predicted, women who had not used prenatal testing or who underwent amniocentesis tended to have stronger prenatal attachment than those who underwent serum screening only.
Results supported the hypotheses that stronger attachment to the fetus would be positively correlated with both FHLC-I and FHLC-P scores. Women who had no testing were found to hold less favourable attitudes toward abortion and rate their religious as stronger than those who had amniocentesis. Emotional attachment to the fetus was stronger among women who had previous miscarriages than those who had not, but did not differ between women who had a previous abortion and those who had not.

Molecular and confocal microscopy comparisons of wild type and temperature sensitive alleles of the <i>aspergillus nidulans</i> morphogenetic locus HypASha, Yu 03 September 2003
Aspergillus nidulans is a filamentous fungus whose cells have highly polarized growth. This requires many genes including hypA, which affects hyphal morphogenesis by promoting tip cell growth and suppressing growth in basal regions. The hypA locus was cloned previously by complementing the hypA1 phenotype. The hypA orthologues in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe are essential, whereas hypA deletion strains in Aspergillus nidulans are viable but morphologically abnormal.
The A. nidulans hypA locus has two temperature sensitive alleles, hypA1 and hypA6. These alleles were generated independently, but using the same mutagen, and were identified and characterized by different groups. Although the hypA1 strain has been shown to sporulate at restrictive temperature, the hypA6 strain was described as having a restrictive arrest phenotype, which suggested it was a lethal defect and was at odds with the report that hypA was dispensable for growth. To resolve this discrepancy, my study compared the hypA1 and hypA6 strains using morphometry, and compared their genetic lesions. I show that the hypA1 and hypA6 phenotypes are indistinguishable and mutation events in their coding regions are identical.
Both hypA1 and hypA6 strains were able to sporulate at restrictive temperature as shown by scanning electron microscopy. Their cell morphologies were indistinguishable after growth under restrictive conditions, as were their repolarization kinetics when restrictive-grown cells were shifted to permissive temperature.
Sequencing the hypA locus from a hypA6 strain, and comparing it to a hypA1 strain showed that they had identical lesions (G329R), which is consistent with the morphometric analysis. Unexpectedly, the hypA1 and hypA6 strains shared additional non-conservative amino acid substitutions, K885F and E932K, with their wildtype parent A28 compared to the strain used for complementing hypA1. The repair of these two amino acid changes can not rescue hypA1 or hypA6 phenotype at 42C.
The S. cerevisiae homologue of hypA protein is TRS120p, which is involved in endomembrane trafficking. FM4-64 endomembrane staining of hypA1 and hypA6 strains showed they had aberrant endomembrane arrays at restrictive versus permissive temperature, which recovered the wildtype pattern after a return to permissive conditions. This is consistent with the similarities between the hypA and TRS120 sequences.
The disparity between the published descriptions of the hypA1 and hypA6 restrictive phenotypes has been resolved, and the allele renamed hypA1/A6.

Work locus of control och ledarskapets betydelse för anställdas målengagemang under en företagsnedläggningMelz, Anders January 2011 (has links)
Anställdas produktivitet har överraskande visat sig öka under tidigare nedläggningar. Detta uppmärksammade fenomen benämns nedläggningseffekten och förklaras bland annat av anställdas ökade autonomi och utrymme för innovativa förmågor under nedläggningsperioden. Relationer mellan ledare och underanställda är enligt LMX-teorin av olika kvalitét vilket kan förklara anställdas engagemang, ett engagemang som även kan förklaras av anställdas individuella differenser. Syftet med studien är att undersöka ledarskapets och personlighetsvariabeln work locus of control betydelse för anställdas målengagemang under en nedläggningsperiod. En enkätundersökning för 275 medarbetare utfördes 2006 på ett tillverkningsföretag. Resultatet från en regressionsanalys visar att ledarskapet spelar en mindre betydande roll för målengagemanget under nedläggningen än medarbetarnas personlighet. Förklaringar till målengagemanget under nedläggningen kan utifrån LMX-teorin tolkas som ett resultat av de högkvalitativa relationer som anställda med intern locus of control tenderar att skapa. Studiens begränsning är att den enbart fokuserar på ledarskapets och personlighetens betydelse för målengagemanget. Andra komponenter av målengagemang bör därför studeras i anslutning till nedläggning.

Personlighet och Health Locus of Control : en korrelationsstudie med deltagare från Sverige och TysklandSvensson, Maria, Håkansson, Anette January 2011 (has links)
I denna studie har undersökts personlighet och Health Locus of Control hos 56 kvinnor och män i åldrarna 18 till 65 år, där 30 var svenskar och 26 var tyskar. Undersökningens frågeställning var: Är en eller fler personlighetsdimensioner i Fem-Faktor-modellen relaterade till i vilken utsträckning en individ har Internality, Powerful others eller Chance Health Locus of Control. En NEO-PI enkät och ett Multi dimensionella Health Locus of Control-skalan-formulär administrerades. Resultatet från undersökningen kunde påvisa en signifikant korrelation mellan Openess to Experience och Powerful Others Health Locus of Control samt Conscientiousness och Powerful Others Health Locus of Control. En signifikant skillnad mellan svenskar och tyskar beträffande Powerful Others kunde också påvisas. Resultaten diskuteras utifrån att det kan vara andra faktorer än personlighet, som styr varje människas Health Locus of Control

Locus of control, syskonplacering och kön : Finns det några samband?Kumlemark, Joakim, Berg, Fredrik January 2007 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine if there was a relation between birth order, gender and locus of control. There where 162 participants in the study, 44 men, 115 women. Birth order was coded into three levels. There where no significant differences between birth order and locus of control. The result showed that female participants where more external when it came to locus of control. When birth order was coded into two levels, there was a significant difference in locus of control. Only-borns where significant more internal than the other sibling groups. Firstborns/ only-borns where significant more internal than both second-born and last-borns. There was no interaction effect between birth order and gender. Adler´s sibling theories and Rotter´s theory of locus of control helped to explain the significant results found in this study.

En relation mellan The Big Five och Health Locus of Control?Åstedt, Eric, Mörck, Robin January 2007 (has links)
Denna studie undersökte relationen mellan karaktärsdragen i The Big Five och Health Locus of Control (HLC). Testen NEO-FFI och MHLC användes för att mäta karaktärsdragen och dimensionerna i HLC. 130 studenter vid Växjö universitet deltog i studien. Resultatet visade en relation mellan Conscientiousness och dimensionen Intern HLC. Extraversion hade en något svagare relation till IHLC. Studenter med en högre grad av Conscientiousness eller Extraversion hade generellt en högre grad av IHLC. Neuroticism hade en relation till dimensionen Powerful others (PHLC). Studenterna med en högre grad Neuroticism hade också i allmänhet en högre grad av PHLC. De funna relationerna kan tyda på att karaktärsdragen tillsammans med HLC möjligen kan påverka faktorer som inverkar på hälsan.
