Emotionellt beslutsfattande : En kvalitativ studie om behandlingspedagogers beslutsfattande / Emotional decision -making : A qualitative study of treatment educators’ decision- making

Abstrakt The violence within the state's institutional board is extensive and affects both staff and young people. The State Board of Institutions has attracted a lot of attention in the media and several reports and articles have described the problem. The State Board of Institutions is an authority that provides compulsory care for adult addicts and young people. The problems within the state's institutional board will not be solved by themselves. The violence seems to be escalating and something must be done. An important part of the work is decision-making. Every situation requires decision making and even when no decision is made it is decision making. The purpose of the essay is to examine the emotional decision-making within the state's institutional board. Qualitative interviews have been chosen as the method. These consisted of two focus groups with follow-up interviews. The previous research consists of research on the state's institutional board, a research on social workers and one on decision-making. The theory consists of Hochschild's emotional work and theoretical concepts from it. Important conclusions in the work are that emotional decision-making is highly individual and is based on one's own reason. Important factors for the treatment educators' emotional decision-making are the immediate supervisor, young people, colleagues, knowledge of and trust in methods. There are points of contact with the theory, mainly when it comes to the profession and professional role.
