Hemlösa ungdomar - ett osynligt problem : En kvalitativ studie om avsaknaden av en enhetlig problembeskrivningWahlberg, Gry, Wiegandt, Sanna January 2009 (has links)
<p>Homeless adolescents are in Sweden rather invisible, as a group. There is no established definition or description of the problem, nor any uniform terms regarding it. The purpose of this study is to investigate how four different organizations, based on their basic principles, describe the group homeless adolescents. We discuss why the organizations reason as they do, and what it leads to. In order to do so we have performed qualitative interviews with representatives from each organization. The study relies on a social constructivist theory, which focuses on how knowledge and different phenomena are constructed. To analyze the constructions concerning the group homeless adolescents we used Kitsuse & Spector’s (1973a; 1973b; 1977) social constructivist theory about social problems. To operationalize our theory and determine how the phenomena is constructed we used Rose’s (1999) dimensions of analysis. Our results show that governmental organizations don’t recognize this as a problem of homelessness, but as a family problem. Only one organization offers a different description. This indicates that there is a public description of the problem, and one claims-making process. According to the public description the solution to the problem is family treatment which means that the basic condition is that the adolescents return home, otherwise the group can’t be helped.</p>

När verkligheten sätts ur spel : En kvalitativ studie om profesionella socialarbetares förhållningssätt till problematiskt datorspelande som ett beroendeFalk-Lundgren, Fredrik, Johnselius, Max January 2011 (has links)
This study examines how professional social workers relate to problematic computer and video gaming as an addiction. It is a qualitative interview study aimed to describe and analyze how professional social workers, who in some way work with problematic computer gaming, relate to the player’s problems in terms of a concept of dependency. The theoretical approach is based on social constructivist theories of discourses, normality, the definition of dependency and diagnoses. The study was conducted through five qualitative half structured definition interviews with professional social workers that work directly or comes in contact with problematic computer gaming. The results portray a consistent, yet fragmented understanding of the problem. Daily life is described as "reality" and the problematic computer gaming as "escapism". The player can’t meet the normative requirements of its surroundings and is classified as addicted. The informants describe similar problems related to computer gaming, but have different ideas on how the problems arise. The study concludes that professionals specifically describing problematic gaming as an addiction explain their clients in terminology comparable to substance abuse. Those who don’t relate to the concept of dependence as firmly describe the problematic gaming as more of a consequence of the interaction between the player and its surroundings.

Dataspelsberoende och dess sociala problematik : En litteraturstudie om dataspelsberoende, dess sociala problematik samt utmaningar inom det sociala arbetet / Gaming disorder and its social problems : A literature review on gaming disorder, its social issues and challenges in social workRezai Yazdi, Shirin, Waseh, Maya January 2023 (has links)
The aim of this study was to address a knowledge gap by conducting a literature review on gaming disorder, specifically focusing on its social problems and challenges it presents in the field of social work. The specific objectives of this study were to identify risk factors associated with gaming disorder, explore the potential social problems arising from gaming disorder and their impact on individuals, examine the treatment approaches for gaming disorder and identify the challenges faced by social workers when working with individuals affected by gaming disorder. The theories used were social interactionism, Erving Goffman’s dramaturgical theory and social labeling theory. Results showed that mental health problems, social isolation, self-neglect as well as disruptions in social relationships, education and work were associated with gaming disorder. Several risk factors were identified, such as age, gender, poor parental attachment, lack of real-life friendships and loneliness. Additionally, challenges in the field of social work arise from limited research and knowledge, as well as the ease with which risk factors can be masked by individuals. The findings suggest that there is no singular treatment approach for gaming disorder, instead, it is important for social workers to understand problematic gaming within a broader context of life challenges. The emphasis should not be placed solely on eliminating gaming, but rather on addressing various aspects of the individual’s life to achieve a healthy balance and a purposeful existence.

"En skål för andras lidande" : Bildanalys av vinnarbilderna i World Press Photo of the Year mellan 1999-2008Rodling, Emma, Ekman, Maria January 2010 (has links)
<p>En undersökning av vinnarbilderna i World Press Photo of the Year mellan 1999-2008. World Press Photo är världens största fototävling och är prestigefylld att vinna för pressfotografer. Syftet var att undersöka vad de senaste årens bildjournalistik förmedlar till sina betraktare genom nyhetsbilderna som vunnit World Press Photo of the Year under 2000-talet. Syftet har förgrenat sig i frågeställningarna:</p><p>Vilka teman har vinnarbilderna i World Press Photo of the Year mellan 1999-2008?</p><p>Vad förmedlar innehållet i bilderna?</p><p>Vad finns det för likheter och skillnader mellan bilderna?</p><p>Studien är en kvalitativ undersökning där vi gjort bildanalyser av vinnarbilderna i World Press Photo of the Year mellan 1999-2008. Vi har använt oss av semiotisk och retorisk bildanalys. Resultaten visar att vinnarbilderna som representerar det bästa inom bildjournalistiken visar ett begränsat antal teman, krig, sociala problem och fattigdom samt naturkatastrofer. De flesta bilderna är från Asien och framförallt Mellanöstern. Bilderna är negativt laddade och människorna på bilderna visar oftast sorg och lidande.</p>
