Äldres tankar kring pensionering, åldrande och förluster / Older persons' thoughts concerning retirement, aging and losses

Andersson, Ing-Marie January 2012 (has links)
Syftet med studien var att undersöka äldres tankar kring förluster och upplevelser av pensionering och åldrande. Metoden är kvalitativ. Intervjuerna har gjorts med sex kvinnor som har gått i psykodynamisk psykoterapi mellan ett och tre år i samband med sin pensionering. Kvinnorna var mellan 66 och 77 år gamla när intervjuerna genomfördes. Resultatet visar att det viktigaste inför framtiden är en god hälsa och en trygg ålderdom. Samtliga informanter har haft positiva förväntningar inför pensionärstiden. Övergången från att lämna yrkeslivet till att bli pensionär har inneburit olika för var och en. Det framkom både positiva och negativa aspekter. Alla fick någon form av kris i samband med pensioneringen, oavsett om de har valt att fortsätta arbeta eller inte. Det handlar inte om arbetet utan om tillhörigheten. Informanter ansåg sig fått en ny insikt genom psykoterapin. Deltagarna ser positivt på åldrandet, men det går inte att förneka förlusterna, sorgen och oron för hur det kan bli senare i livet.

”Jag tänker inte sitta hemma och sticka” : En studie av sex nyblivna pensionärers informationsbehov och biblioteksvanor. / ”I’m not going to sit at home knitting” : A study of six newly retired peoples information needs and library habits.

Johanson, Helen, Larsson, Ingrid January 2007 (has links)
This study is about information needs and library habits among newly retired people. The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the affective and cognitive needs that come with retirement. In what way do the information needs of this group change due to retirement? In order to answer this question we make use of two theoretical models; Role theory and Wilson’s model of information needs. When it comes to library habits, we use Andersson and Skot-Hansens model to examine how newly retired people use the library now and how they could use it on basis of their needs in their new role. The method used in this study is qualitative; interviews are done with six newly retired people. The results show that newly retired people have a cognitive need to create meaning in their lives and an affective need of being needed to compensate for their loss of work role. These needs do not however create that many information needs. The newly retired people who were interviewed consider that they already know everything that they need to know, especially when it comes to information about their interests, which they have been into for many years. If there is something they need to know there tends not to be a problem finding information about it. The library is used as a centre of knowledge, for example newspaper-reading, and as a centre of culture, for example book borrowing. / Uppsatsnivå: D
