Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Gender(ed) patterns in Swedish school physical education and health: a problem of equity?In the spring of 2009 the Swedish National Agency of Education commissioned the physical education and sport pedagogy research group at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences in Stockholm to survey and problematize girls' and boys' conditions in Swedish physical education and health (PEH). The overarching theme of this symposium is to present the results from this project and to discuss different kinds of factors that influence gender equity in PEH.Gender and gender equity in PEH has been on the research agenda both in Sweden and in other countries for several decades, in particular the masculine and heteronormative character of the subject. What is specific, and perhaps new, about this project is that it takes its starting point in statistical data about 15-16 year old girls' and boys' distribution of grades, parents' educational level, and students' and parents' place of birth (Sweden/not Sweden). The Swedish National Agency of Education (SNAE) has access to statistics from every Swedish school about this kind of information.The project consist of three studies:- a survey, where questionnaires were sent to 350 secondary schools to be answered by a PEH teacher (with questions about aims and content of PEH teaching, gender equity, assessment, etc.);- an interview study with 17 PEH teachers in mid-Sweden (focusing on how teachers reason about their subject and about gender equity issues in the subject);- an observation study of PEH lessons with 6 classes at different schools in a big-city area (focusing possible relation between the school’s socio-economic and ethnic conditions, gender patterns during class, and content and organisation of PEH teaching)The survey study has added information from teachers about PEH teaching that can be related to the previously mentioned statistical information about the pupils and the distribution of grades. The teachers and classes participating in the interview and observations studies were selected based on the same statistical information. Each paper to be presented at the symposium will deal with one of the three studies.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article focuses on widening participation in higher education and the low recruitment of students from diverse backgrounds within sport-related programmes. The purpose of the study has been to describe and increase the understanding of how the preconditions and premises for choosing to study ‘sport’ appear to students from diverse backgrounds who have started their studies. An interview study was carried out with eight students from three institutes, based on a purposeful sample. The study draws on Bourdieu’s analytical concepts of habitus, capital and practical sense. The findings indicate that the interviewees’ had sufficient symbolic and cultural capital to enable a ‘practical sense’ that choice and action were possible, including evaluating the consequences of choice. For some, this meant a choice that crossed boundaries. Achieving a greater widening of the recruitment to higher education in sport-related programmes seems to need a clarification of transformable capital.

Att bygga och utveckla effektiva ledarteam
- 2020
-
Bok (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Att bygga och utveckla effektiva ledarteam handlar om hur ledare, tränare, administratörer, läkare, fysioterapeuter, idrottspsykologer, kanslipersonal, ja hur alla individer som fyller någon form av stödfunktion inom idrotten kan arbeta tillsammans i ledarteam, för att utföra arbetsuppgifter och hantera olika former av utmaningar.Boken är upplagd med en blandning av forskning, teori, exempel och citat från den idrottsliga praktiken samt olika råd och tips. En del information kommer från forskning om Janne Anderssons ledarteam. Genom den ges en insikt i hur ledare samarbetar och hanterar olika situationer, dels i det dagliga arbetet, dels under pressade situationer som exempelvis avgörande VM-matcher, men också hur de får ledarteamet att fungera optimalt. Det är kunskaper som kan ge inspiration, vilket alla ledare och tränare kan ha nytta av.Innehållet ska emellertid inte betraktas som en ”kokbok med givna recept” för samarbete i ledarteam. Det finns nästan aldrig en perfekt plan eller väg att gå, utan flera olika vägar kan leda till samma mål. Det är därför viktigt att ledare har ett kritiskt sinnelag, vågar tänka utanför boxen, ständigt reflekterar över sitt eget beteende, sina handlingar och val samt kontinuerligt utvärderar arbetsprocessen, samarbeten med mera för att behålla det som fungerar och byta ut strategier som inte längre är lika framgångsrika.Ambitionen är också att beskriva hur man kan bygga ett effektivt ledarteam som alla individer kan ha nytta av, oberoende var man är verksam. Boken kan därför vara intressant och användbar även för individer inom organisationer och företag som arbetar i olika typer av ledarteam. Det kan vara lärare som arbetar i arbetslag, läkare som samarbetar i olika medicinska konstellationer, anställda inom näringslivet som är indelade i team, men också personer som är allmänt intresserade av idrott, ledarskap och ledarteam.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this study, we provide a novel account of the selection and development of a staff team for the Swedish national men's football team for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. A total of 37 interviews took place at six time points over a 21-month period to track the values-based steps taken by the national Head Coach to build his support team. The sample was employed in a variety of roles including Head Coach, Assistant Head Coach, Goalkeeping Coach, Mentor to the Head Coach, Performance Analyst, Sports Psychologist, three Scouts, and a Team Manager. The data are presented in a temporal manner and organized according to three core values which were espoused by and later adopted as a value system by the support team: candor, humility, community. The data provide novel insight into the recruitment, formation, and development of the support team underpinned by a value system promoted by the Head Coach using candor, humility, and community. The presentation of longitudinal reflections from the Head Coach and members of the staff team during their build-up to, and excellent performance at the World Cup finals offer a significant contribution to knowledge regarding how a values-led approach was experienced in elite sport. The findings offer salient implications for research and practice. Lay summary: This is a case study of the selection, formation, and development of a support team for the Swedish national football team over 21 months before the men's 2018 FIFA World Cup. We explored the values-led leadership approach of the Head Coach across this period, presenting data from interviews over time-related to the impact of this values-led approach on the "team behind the team" in the build-up to and during the World Cup.Applied implications Psychologists and coaches might benefit from adopting a values-led approach to recruitment and ways of working. The values of candor, humility, and community were effectively articulated and role modeled by the leader and subsequently adopted by members of the support team. Although the specific values may not be suitable, the processes and critical moments that defined this adoption process might be valuable for others to reflect on. Values systems might benefit from "stress testing" over a period of time that is characterized by the relative stability of personnel and consistency of value messaging.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Coaching och undervisning har traditionellt betraktats som två skildaaktiviteter. Pedagogiska teorier har därför inte behandlats i litteraturen.Numera försöker dock en hel del forskare illustrera förhållandetmellan dem. Arbetet med att lära ut kunskaper och färdigheter ärbara en gemensam nämnare.

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of what it means to learn to become, be and develop as a coach in Swedish male professional football. The theoretical framework is inspired by sociocultural perspectives on learning and the theory of situated learning, particularly Lave and Wengers’ (2005) concept legitimate peripheral participation and parts of Wenger’s (1998) concept communities of practice. In the analysis of the coaches’ perceptions I have used Nielsen and Kvales’ (2000) characteristics of learning resources in communities of practice and some concepts that belong to the sociocultural tradition and the theory of situated learning; legitimate peripheral participation, shared repertoire, situated identities, scaffolding and more capable. Empirically, the thesis is based on semistructured interviews with ten head coaches of teams in superettan or allsvenskan, the two highest football’s leagues in Sweden. The main findings can be summarized in that the coaches’ teams, including assistant coaches and, e.g., fitness coaches, etc., are important for the coaches’ learning and for them to manage an expanded leadership, tough employment conditions and large external demands of success. The coaches’ interaction with each other in the teams also means that they have great opportunities to form primary communities of practice, where large parts of their learning take place. Inexperienced coaches can accordingly be supported in their learning in a community of practice to which he belongs, but important is also that the coach education supports the coaches’ learning, for example through a focus on leadership issues and analysis of the football game.
