Nilowik, Saga, und Michela Solca. „Hör pornografi hemma i socialt arbete? Socionomers uppfattningar om kunskap och relevans i arbetet med barn och ungdomar“. Thesis, Malmö universitet, Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS), 2018. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:mau:diva-24456.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe purpose of this study is to illustrate how knowledge about pornography is relevant in social work. The study has a qualitative approach, where we have considered the thoughts and experiences of social workers who work with or have experience from working with children and adolescents. The study include six semi structured interviews with social workers from different parts of the social field. We analyzed our data using Simon's and Gagnon's (2005) theory of sexual script. Our data shows two social sexual scripts that often convey contradictory messages about pornography and sexuality. Children and adolescents need to deal with both the sexualizing and the moralizing script considering how they should interpret pornography in relation to their own sexual development. Research shows that almost all children and adolescents get in touch with pornography. Based on our theory, we conclude that children and adolescents are directly or indirectly affected by this. Our data shows a perceived need to talk about pornography with children and adolescents. Previous research also shows that children and adolescents call for reflective talks about pornography with adults. Only because of this, pornography is relevant for social work with the target group. Since research also shows a connection between social vulnerability and sexual vulnerability, knowledge about the subject becomes even more important for the social work as a profession.

Der volle Inhalt der QuellePornography is part of the landscape of our society. Starting in the 1970s, a process of massification has gradually led pornography to become a huge cultural industry, raising questions about the discourse of which it is the subject (production professionals, journalists, laymen, politicians etc.). Pornography is a social and cultural object with economic, political and aesthetic relevance and consequently seems to have gained legitimacy even within scientific research over the last decade. Established as a trend of thought on one hand (referred to in the English-speaking world as Porn Studies) and a research subfield on the other (lesbian pornography etc.), this "new" research field could certainly follow on from Gender and Sexuality Studies. This doctoral thesis proposes to clarify the process by which a marginal object is transformed into an object that fits into the academic system. The work aims to reconstitute the historical context in which the various French research projects relating to pornography emerged. The development of this historical map will allow us to explore the core of Pornography Studies in France and how they were constituted on one hand, and to describe the specific communicational aspects of knowledge construction, transformation and transmission on the other. These processes appear both in the possible relations between different scientific fields and in the flow of knowledge specific to the science that is in the making. This research could also make a heuristic contribution to studies that have already been carried out since the 1980s in Sociology or History of Science about the emergence of new disciplines and new research fields and topics

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleProstitution is a complex, worldwide societal problem that can lead to several negative consequences for the victim. In Sweden, the purchase of sexual services has been criminalized since 1999, and the Swedish government allocates great importance to combat prostitution. Despite this, prostitution is a widespread problem in Sweden. Various studies indicate that the phenomenon is increasing, primarily via the internet, and that prostitution seems to be declining with age. Previous research in the field shows that difficulties in counteracting the problem are partly due to the development of technology, attitudes and norms in society and a lack of resources in the judicial system. The purpose of the present study is to investigate difficulties in preventing prostitution from the perspective of professionals, as well as what can be done to improve the preventive work. Through a qualitative method with semi-structured interviews and an application of the routine activity theory, the research questions are answered. The results show that the lack of personal with relevant skills, the increased accessibility via the internet and the impact of porn on attitudes and norms make it more difficult to counteract prostitution. In addition, it is shown that further measures are required, including early efforts regarding education and a adjustment of the Sex Purchase Act.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe aim of this study is to illustrate the perception of the concept “hard sex” among young women who have sex with men. Emphasis lies on young womens’ approach to “hard sex” as a discursive phenomenon but also to consent and pornography. Data was collected in three qualitative semi-structured focus group interviews with ten girls in total, aged 15-19. The empirical findings were then analyzed within social constructivist theories and concepts regarding power, hierarchies of sexual value, respectability and femininity. The results shows that young girls perceive “hard sex” as a normalized type of sexual practise, but also that this is surrounded by complex ideals about e.g. femininity. The results also show that lack of communication in sexual encounters leads to a creation of strategies linked to consent and role expectations between young women and men. Furthermore, the result show that internet plays an unique role in the creation process of sexual ideals among young women, where influencers, pornography and memes are examples of influential sources.

Der volle Inhalt der QuellePornography is daily consumed by many, at the same time it is regarded as a risk factor for more positive attitudes towards sexual violence. The harmful consequences of pornography is controversial and there is a lack of knowledge regarding its relationship with sexual attitudes. The purpose of the present study was to examine attitudes toward sexual violence against women related to pornography consumption and gender. A cross-sectional study design was used and the data were collected through an online survey with a total of 449 respondents (130 men; 319 women). The results showed a significant positive relationship between attitudes toward sexual violence and pornography in men but not in women. A difference between those who had a high respectively low pornography consumption were found in women but not men. Men had more positive attitudes toward sexual violence and also reported a higher consumption compared to women. Finally, individuals who often consumed violent pornography had milder attitudes than those who rarely did so. To counteract the harmful consequences of pornography, a suggestion is to regulate the production and consumption of pornography as well as investing in norm-critical sexual education in school.

unfavorable attitudes toward rape victims after eliminating the effects of age and education. Additional analysis further revealed that male participants demonstrated significantly more endorsement on unfavorable attitudes toward rape victims than female participants. The main effect of pornography viewing on attitudes toward rape victims was not found significant. However, the results further indicated that there was a significant interaction effect among gender, pornography viewing and empathy. That is, in the high victim empathy condition male participants who had been exposed to pornography scored significantly higher on unfavorable attitudes toward rape victims than those who had never been exposed to it. On the other hand, in the high empathy condition, female participants who viewed pornography showed less endorsement on unfavorable attitudes toward rape victims than those who never viewed pornography. Finally, the results of the study indicated that the interaction effects of pornography viewing and hostile sexism were significant. Indeed, in the high hostile sexism condition, both male and female participants who were exposed to pornography showed significantly greater endorsement on unfavorable attitudes toward rape victims when compared to those who did not watch pornography. The major contributions of this thesis are (1) investigating some of the effects of important demographic variables such as age, education and income, (2) comparing the unique contributions of locus of control, empathy, belief in a just world, hostile and benevolent sexism with a hierarchical regression analysis, and (3) showing the interaction effects of some variables like gender, pornography viewing, levels of empathy and hostile sexism on participants&rsquo
attitudes toward rape victims.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe conceptual link between education and society, forged in the 19th Century, is often taken for granted. This seemingly outdated connection, however, has guided reforms in secondary education in India and Germany throughout the second half of the 20th Century. This study attempts to understand this lag between underlying ideas and the reforms they framed by synthesizing a viable theory for imagining the connection between education and a complex society. Foundational approaches to society and education are brought into dialogue with post-colonial and critical theories. Universalistic assumptions are problematized, and an open-ended solution for theorizing new connections is presented. National educational reforms in India and Germany subsequent to their critical junctures of 1947/1945 are exhaustively and chronologically compared in order to conceptualize a generic character of historical-educational reproduction for each country and to facilitate a process of mutual learning. Finally, a solution to the problems associated with educational reproduction is presented. Education as a public good does not need to simply be reactive to social problems. Instead, it can be reconfigured so as to drive social change.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleEste estudio pretende presentar un análisis comparativo de los rasgos metadiscursivos producidos en las clases y seminarios AICLE ofrecidos en las áreas de Ciencias Blandas y Ciencias Duras. En cuanto a la metodología, los datos se obtuvieron a partir de varios instrumentos de investigación: entrevistas grabadas en audio, transcripciones de seminarios y conferencias AICLE, rúbricas de observación, cuestionarios y pruebas de nivel.Los hallazgos en el área de Ciencias Blandas indican que los recursos lingüísticos encontrados en el discurso del profesor parecen ser más predominantes en el módulo de cuarto curso impartido en la licenciatura de Historia. También se ha puesto de manifiesto que los rasgos metadiscursivos son más numerosos en Ciencias duras, donde los intercambios comunicativos se producen en mayor proporción. Esta investigación arroja algo de luz sobre la relevancia de los marcadores interpersonales en las prácticas de interacción multilingüe que se dan en la educación superior. Las pruebas pueden utilizarse en los futuros programas de formación del profesorado con el fin de apoyar experiencias significativas de AICLE.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleSammanfattning
Denna uppsats handlar om den sociala bakgrundens betydelse för högskolestudier. Uppsatsen bygger på olika teorier som finns inom klassteorin bland annat av Marx, Weber, Bourdieu. Samt har även annan litteratur och teorier används inför fallstudien. Den socioekonomiska indelningen är viktig att studera för att komma ifrån klassindelningen. Jag har både använt mig av svenska socioekonomisk indelning från SCB och Goldthorpes klasschema.
Syftet med uppsatsen är att förstå hur studenter värderar högskolestudier i förhållande till samhällsklass, detta med tyngdpunkten på den sociala bakgrundens betydelse. Jag har utifrån min teori gått ut med en enkät och en intervju till studenter som läser första året på högskolan.
I analysen framgick det att den sociala bakgrunden har betydelse. Studenterna kände att de fick stöd hemifrån, även om deras föräldrar inte hade läst på högskola. Att läsa på högskola var för de flesta studenterna i min undersökning något som de gjorde för sin egen skull och för sin personliga utveckling.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleDetta examensarbete består av en kvalitativ studie som görs på uppdrag av Ericsson ConsumerLab. Syftet är att utforska fenomenet Social TV-konsumtion utifrån ett användarperspektiv. Genom kvalitativa intervjuer utforskas fenomenet genom att undersöka både hur och varför TV-konsumenter använder sociala medier för att prata om TV-innehåll parallellt som det konsumeras. Examensarbetet ger upphov till flera insikter om det aktuella tittarbeteendet, där flera viktiga aspekter täcks in: Drivkrafter, sammanhang där man finner fenomenet, med vilka och hur Sociala TV-tittare interagerar med varandra, barriärer och behov, samt påverkan på TV-upplevelsen. I studien blir det uppenbart att TV-konsumenter allmänt identifierar TV-tittande som något fundamentalt socialt, där man ofta söker likasinnade att dela upplevelsen med och där sociala medier används just för att återskapa känslan av att titta tillsammans med andra. Sekundära skärmar, som t.ex. smarta mobiltelefoner, agerar då ofta som utlösare, då dessa gör det mycket lättare för TV-tittare att interagera med varandra. Detta driver även i slutändan konsumenter till att allt oftare använda flera mediaenheter parallellt vid konsumtion av innehåll. Detta examensarbete påvisar även det mervärde som Sociala TV-tittare upplever av att i realtid kunna interagera med varandra om TV-program, som t.ex. att det blir roligare och mer interaktivt att se på TV. Det är detta mervärde som slutligen även driver TV-konsumenter till att se alltmer TV-innehåll ”live” (tablålagd TV), titta på program man redan sett, och till och med till en ny uppskattning av reklampauser.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis dissertation examines how disability researchers define disability. It is based on four studies. The first describes different definitions of disability in disability research. The second study is a conceptual analysis of the use of disability in a sample of disability research classics. In this study, it is evident that use of the concept is all but clear. It is concluded that especially environmentally based disability definitions would benefit from further empirical investigations. The notion that environmental factors (such as barriers) are a causal aspect of disability is rather widely accepted among disability researchers. However, it has not been empirically studied to such an extent that it is possible to construct workable theories of this relationship.
The third study focuses on administrative definitions of disability and investigates the possibility of using data on disabled people that have been gathered by Swedish welfare authorities. It is concluded that rich data are available, but also that researchers must scrutinize how disability has been defined in these contexts. These authorities often start from medical understandings of disability, which may clash with contemporary understandings of disability as being environmentally based.
The fourth study is a statistical analysis of the effects of different disability definitions on dependent variables. The analyses emphasize variables often included in studies of living conditions. There are major effects of choice of disability definition on the outcome in relation to such variables.
The dissertation strongly rejects efforts to standardize disability definitions; different analytical purposes require different kinds of conceptualizations. Instead, the dissertation suggests that case-constructing reflexivity be conducted. Case-constructing reflexivity means that the researcher starts with a careful analysis of how disability is best defined in relation to the aims of the study, and continues by being constantly aware of how the choice of definition may affect sampling, analyses and results.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleFor presentation of survey results, social science data, and other geospatial statistics requires careful attention in order to facilitate fast and accurate interpretation. Adding dimensionality can easily saturate the observer, leading to confusion instead of adding perspective. We produce over a dozen techniques to facilitate multivariate geospatial visualization, filter them with pilot groups, and then design a computer-based human experiment to evaluate their relative performance. In the experiment, the participants locate (with a mouse click) regions with extreme primary or secondary values and then later estimate numerically the values of these variables. We analyze these data with linear and logistic regression and general additive models to characterize the variance due to a learning effect, and then use general linear mixed-effects models to block out the variability due to individual participants and the independent and randomly-generated survey data used to generate the experiment plots. The effectiveness of a particular technique depends heavily on the goal of the presentation: a technique that provides relative perspective without distracting from the primary variable may not facilitate estimation that is as accurate as other techniques. Four scenarios are provided to qualify the presenters intent. Only one technique performed poorly in all four scenarios and only one technique was average in all four; all remaining varied from very good to very bad between scenarios.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleENGLISH ABSTRACT: This paper asks the question: "Is the Guide to the PMBOICs method appropriate for doing projects of a social science character?" Inthis enquiry extensive use is made ofliterature that is available via the world wide web. This paper follows the school of thought that regards the world as a complex set of interrelated systems. Humans as social beings are an integral part of these complex systems. In order to do justice to human endeavours, one must understand the systems in which humans operate and interpret all human undertakings in relation to those systems. Three broad types of systems approaches to project management are distinguished. A common underlying principle of all three approaches is that they regard social systems as complex, highly volatile and in constant flux. A direct consequence of this characteristic of social systems is that project goals are also not simple and rigidly fixed. The project goals are also complex, in constant flux and open-ended. The traditional Guide to the PMBOICs method for doing project management is unable to deal effectively with these complex and volatile system problems. This paper advocates that a slightly modified version of Checkland's soft systems method be used to deal with social projects, which are by definition, also complex projects. It is proposed that Checkland's soft systems method should be used in addition to the traditional approach. The method proposed by this paper is, to various degrees, already being implemented in practice. The proposed method is, however, presently not being catered for in the project management software packages that are readily and commercially available.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek die vraag: "Is die metode soos voorgestel in die Guide to the PMBOK geskik vir projekte met 'n sosiaal wetenskaplike karakter?" In die ondersoek word op grootskaal gebruik gemaak van literatuur wat beskikbaar is op die internet. Hierdie studie sluit aan by die wetenskaplike gedagterigting wat die wêreld beskou as bestaande uit 'n reeks ingewikkelde en onderling verbinde sisteme. As sosiale wese is die mens 'n integrale deel van hierdie gekompliseerde sisteme. Om reg te laat geskied aan menslike handelinge, moet die sisteme waarbinne die mens leef verstaan word. Menslike handeling moet ook vertolk word teen die agtergrond van daardie sisteme en in verhouding tot die sisteme. Drie gedagterigtings kan onderskei word binne die sisteem benadering tot projekbestuur. 'n Gemeenskaplike en onderliggende beginsel van al drie gedagterigtings is dat hulle sosiale sisteme beskou as gekompliseerd, uiters onbestendig en in voortdurende beweging. 'n Direkte gevolg van hierdie eienskap van sosiale sisteme is dat projekte se doelwitte ook nie maklik definieerbaar en stabiel is nie. Projekte se doelwitte is gekompliseerd, onbestendig en oop. Die konvensionele metodes vir projekbestuur soos voorgestel deur die Guide to the PMBOK is nie in staat om hierdie gekompliseerde en onbestendige sisteem probleme effektief te hanteer nie. Hierdie studie debatteer dat 'n effens gewysigde weergawe van Checkland se sagte sisteem metode gebruik word vir die doen van sosiale projekte, wat per definisie gekompliseerde projekte is. Dit word aan die hand gedoen dat Checkland se sagte sisteem metode gebruik word saam met die konvensionele benadering. Die metode wat hierdie studie bepleit, word alreeds tot vlakke in die praktyk toegepas. Daar word egter nie voorsieining gemaak vir die voorgestelde metode in rekenaar sagte ware programme in projekbestuur wat redelik algemeen in die kleinhandel beskikbaar is nie.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe purpose of this essay at bachelor level was to increase the understanding regarding the experiences of a client’s meetings with different public authorities. The method used was a case study viewed from a client’s perspective and based upon three qualitative interviews with one client. Theories were used to create order and to analys the empiric material. The interviewed person talked about feelings such as dishonour, unfair treatment and feeling powerless.
The informant wanted to reclaim the power of her life, to have influence and self-determination. Being a client and turn to different authorities for help can lead to divergent.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleGenom rörelse utvecklas vi som personer, vi utvecklas motoriskt, vi får en känsla av välbefinnande och vi har lättare för att koncentrera oss. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur pedagogerna förhåller sig till den planerade samt till den spontana rörelsen i förskolan och hur de arbetar för att uppfylla läroplanens strävandemål om rörelse. Vilka svårigheter respektive möjligheter finns det med att få in rörelsen i vardagen på förskolan och hur övervinner pedagogen dessa? Undersökningen genomfördes i form av deltagande observationer samt personliga intervjuer. Genom observationer och intervjuer med sex olika pedagoger från tre olika förskolor har vi fått deras syn och perspektiv på dessa frågor. Resultatet visar att pedagogernas mål med rörelse är att barnen skall utvecklas motoriskt och samtliga pedagoger belyser pedagogens roll under rörelsen som viktig. Utomhusmiljön och utevistelsen är något som de flesta pedagogerna framhåller som särskilt viktigt gällande barnens rörelse och deras motoriska utveckling. Hur de arbetar med denna för att stimulera barnen, skiljer sig pedagogerna åt och det är deras personliga engagemang och målmedvetenhet som blir avgörande hur pass aktiva de själv är under utevistelsen. De möjliga hinder som pedagogerna ser med att få in rörelsen i vardagen är bland annat brist på utrymme, brist på kunskap och brist på resurser.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleVårt syfte med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka hur personalrekryterare ser på begreppet Social Kompetens i samband med rekrytering, framförallt vid rekrytering av människor som i sitt yrke arbetar för människor, tillika serviceyrken. Innan vi påbörjade uppsatsen antog vi att den Sociala Kompetensen var viktig för att kunna få anställning. Vi har i studie 2, som är vår huvudsakliga studie, genomfört sju intervjuer med människor som i sitt yrke rekryterar och genomför anställningsintervjuer. Då det existerar liten forskning kring förekomsten av Social Kompetens i platsannonser valde vi även att göra en sådan undersökning, studie 1, som till viss del även låg till grund för urvalet av intervjupersoner till studie 2. I platsannonser efterfrågas Social Kompetens främst för tjänster där man arbetar för människor, vård/omsorg/läraryrken, men även inom serviceyrken. Personalrekryterare använder inte begreppet Social Kompetens vid utformning av kravprofiler för platsannonser och det är vanligare att personalrekryterare inte efterfrågar Social Kompetens i platsannonser än att de gör det. Trots detta är den Sociala Kompetensen oftast en avgörande faktor för om individen faktiskt får anställning eller inte men definitionen av Social Kompetens är inte entydig bland personalrekryterare.

A key challenge of data-driven social science is the gathering of high quality multi-dimensional datasets. A second challenge relates to the design and execution of social experiments in the real world that are as reliable as those within a controlled laboratory, yet yield more practical results. We introduce the Social Functional Mechanism-design and Relationship Imaging, or "SocialfMRI" - an approach that enhances existing computational social science methodologies by bridging rich data collection strategies with experimental interventions. In this thesis, we demonstrate the value of the Social fMRI approach in our Friends and Family study. We transformed a young-family residential community into a living laboratory for 15 months, through a very fine-grained and longitudinal data collection process combined with targeted experimental interventions. Through the derived dataset of unprecedented quality, the Social fMRI approach allows us to gain insights into intricate social mechanisms and interpersonal relationships within the community in ways not previously possible. This thesis delivers the following contributions: (1) A methodology combining a rich-data experimental approach together with carefully designed interventions, (2) a system supporting the methodology - implemented, field-tested, and released to the world as an open-source framework with a growing community of users, (3) a dataset collected using the system, comprising what is, to date, the richest real-world dataset of its genre, (4) a very large set of experimental findings that contribute to our understanding of important research questions in computational social science in addition to demonstrating the methodology's potential. Among the results described in this thesis are the design and evaluation of a novel mechanism for social support in a health-related context, the observation that the diffusion of mobile applications relies more on the face-to-face interaction ties than on self-perceived friendship ties, and a gained understanding of the evolution of modeling and prediction processes over time and varying sample sizes.
