Social media use and alcohol consumption among students in Uganda : a cross sectional study
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Global Health Action. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1654-9716 .- 1654-9880. ; 15:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background Globally, alcohol use significantly contributes to the disease burden. Alcohol consumption in Uganda is related to several health consequences among young people, including university students. Social media is commonly used by students to share academic information and create social networks. Among young people in high-income countries, previous studies have also shown that social media use can have negative health outcomes related to alcohol use, and associated problems. To date, similar studies conducted in low- and middle-income countries are largely missing. Objective To assess the prevalence of and associations between social media use and alcohol consumption among university students in Uganda. Method This was a cross-sectional study among 996 undergraduate students at Makerere University. Data were collected using a questionnaire. Alcohol use in the previous 12 months was the dependent variable. The independent variable was social media use categorised as general use, alcohol-related use, and social media lurking/passive participation. Multinomial logistic regression was used to assess associations. Crude and adjusted odds ratios were reported. Results Nearly all students (97%) used social media and 39% reported alcohol use. Regular alcohol use was significantly associated with moderate (OR = 2.22, CI: 1.35-3.66) and high level general social media use (OR = 2.45, CI: 1.43-4.20). Regular alcohol use was also associated with alcohol-related social media (OR = 6.46, CI: 4.04-10.30), and alcohol-related lurking (OR = 4.59, CI: 2.84-7.39). Similar, although weaker associations were identified for occasional alcohol use. Conclusions Approximately four in ten students reported alcohol use in the past year, and almost all students used social media. Alcohol-related social media use was associated with occasional and regular alcohol use, with stronger associations for regular use. These findings may guide further research and present an opportunity for potential alcohol control interventions to improve health among young populations in low- and middle-income countries.

Social innovation för hållbar utveckling
- 2022. - 1
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Brännande samhällsutmaningar i form av bland annat segregation, ohälsa och ekologisk obalans skapar efterfrågan på nytänkande lösningar som inte bara följer en ekonomisk logik utan också är socialt och miljömässigt hållbara. I antologin presenteras aktuell svensk forskning om social innovation för hållbar utveckling, med koppling till Agenda 2030. Forskare från olika discipliner och lärosäten belyser detta i förhållande till exempelvis stadsutveckling, arbetslivsinkludering, naturbaserad rehabilitering och skola. Hybridorganisering, samverkan mellan olika aktörer och en ny samhällsekonomisk styrning tas också upp. Tillsammans ger antologins kapitel en bild av det växande forskningsfältet social innovation, med tillämpning mot hållbar utveckling. Därmed diskuteras potentialen i att sammanföra dessa perspektiv för att stärka bidragen till vetenskaplig och praktisk utveckling. Social innovation för hållbar utveckling riktar sig till forskare, studenter och praktiker inom innovationsområdet, exempelvis innovatörer, innovationsfrämjare, politiker och tjänstepersoner, samt andra intresserade.Boken är framtagen i samarbete med Mötesplats Social Innovation.

Diabetes specialist nurses' perceptions of their multifaceted role
- 2012
-
Ingår i: European Diabetes Nursing. - : Maney Publishing. - 1551-7853 .- 1551-7861. ; 9:2, s. 39-44
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of this study was to explore diabetes specialist nurses' (DSNs') perceptions of their professional role in diabetes care.Exploratory interviews were used to elicit DSNs' perceptions of their professional role. Twenty-nine DSNs working in 23 primary health care centres in northern Sweden were interviewed in focus groups. Data were analysed using qualitative content analysis.The DSNs described their profession as encompassing five major roles: ‘expert’, ‘fosterer’, ‘executive’, ‘leader’, and ‘role model’. Challenges interpreted as role ambiguities included feeling uninformed, fragmented, resigned, pressed for time, and self-reproachful.The profession of DSN was interpreted as multifaceted, with various roles and role ambiguities. Patient-centred care and empowerment, which are recommended in diabetes care, can be difficult to achieve when DSNs experience role ambiguity.Lack of clarity about role demands and difficulty in reconciling different roles may have a negative impact on DSNs' attitudes in clinical encounters and could inhibit patient-centred care. The development of the DSN profession requires improved awareness of the DSN's professional role in the clinical encounter, not only to improve the care of patients with diabetes, but also to retain these professionals.

Kommunikation i förskolan : förskollärares och barnskötares kommunikation med föräldrar i ett digitaliserat medielandskap
- 2019
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The overall aim of this doctoral thesis is to study communication work among personnel in Swedish pre-schools, with a particular focus on mediated communication with parents. The purpose is also to analyse what roles are given to the professionals in this communication, to identify what subject positions are constructed and to identify how boundaries are managed within the communication practices.The primary theoretical framework of the thesis is social constructivism and symbolic interactionism. The pre-school organisation and identities are regarded as in a perpetual state of becoming and changes in the media landscape are viewed as rearranging the preconditions for communication practices. Technical innovations are regarded as social products at both ends. Results build upon observations in five pre-schools, interviews with 32 pre-school employees and multimodal analysis of communication material directed to parents. Additional interviews and document studies were conducted in the form of a case study, in order to gain knowledge of the implementation of a digital learning platform.The study shows that the communication environments differ between pre-schools, e.g. concerning how and which mediums are used. Several obstacles to communication are identified, of which many (but not all) are related to the socioeconomic status of parents. Within the mediated communication, pre-school personnel to some extent position themselves as experts concerning practical and pedagogical questions, whilst parents are positioned as actors in need of guidance. A major function of mediated communication is assigning parents’ responsibilities in relation to the pre-school, along with norms regarding what constitutes the “good” (pre-school) parent. Boundary work in relation to parents is conducted using different modalities, used for hedging but also for establishing professional positions. Digitalisation appears as a negative force when introduced top-down, without regards to the needs, previous practices and preconditions within a particular pre- school; but as a positive force when initiated by the professionals themselves and when responding to particular needs within specific pre-schools. As expectations on digitalisation in pre-schools increase, questions of preconditions and communication skills grow in prominence.Although expectations on pre-school professionals’ communication skills are high, communication with parents is not sufficiently acknowledged as part of the actual work in pre-schools. A sign of (and reasons for) the under prioritisation of communication work is the uneven and arbitrary preconditions for communicating, in the forms of relevant education, time and technical equipment. The lack of resources can be connected to three issues: A working environment issue (discrepancy between expectations and preconditions), a democratic issue (communication being random rather than planned/ considered) and a professional issue (multimodal communication not reflecting the professional identity that informants strive towards).Communication with parents (and surrounding society) needs to be acknowledged as part of the work in pre-school, and the personnel need to be given the necessary skills and conditions for communication, in order to provide equality of ac- cess to the parents, but also to give personnel the possibilities of communicating about and reflecting the pre-school organisation as they know it.

Agents of sustainable transition or place branding promotor? : Local journalism and climate change in Sweden

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The climate crisis concerns all fabrics of society. Local journalism can play a key role when cities are handling the problems. This paper analyses local media discourses on climate change in four Swedish cities that aim to be role-models in the transition towards carbon-neutrality. A discourse analysis of news articles and op-eds about the climate, combined with semi-structured interviews with journalists working at four different local newspapers shows that the climate crisis is covered in all newspapers, even if the amount and ambitions varies, including the ability to fill key roles as watchdog and educator. The newsrooms’ climate focus also had to give way when the covid-19 pandemic struck. Local decisions about transportation, food and urban development are common topics and often debated in the local press. However, the price-winning cities ambitious green plans to become climate neutral already by 2030 remain vague for the journalists and probably their readers.

Framing chemicals in Sweden and Poland : journalists’ narratives and media texts

Ingår i: Regulating chemical risks. - Dordrecht : Springer. - 9789048194278 ; , s. 45-69

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- How are chemicals framed in the press in Sweden and in Poland? We have conducted interviews with journalists representing local press, tabloids and national newspapers in order to grasp the professionals’ own narratives about chemicals and also the range of diversity within journalism. What at first can appear as a marginalized topic, chemicals, partly because it is not an established journalistic genre, has turned out to have many faces. All news treating additives in food production and every report relating to medicines, such as the growing resistance towards antibiotics among the population, is part of the discourse, not to mention accidental releases of hazardous substances, etc. Secondly, it is a central part of the study to understand how these dominant themes are textually constructed in the press coverage. The news and media debate about chemicals are not only a central information source for the majority of citizens; the mass media also influence stakeholders, opinion-leaders and decision-makers in society. By and large the results indicate that the types of frames that are used by journalists in these two countries have a lot in common, even if the content of the media texts and the specific national contexts differ substantially between Sweden and Poland.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Michel Foucaults korta text Diskursens ordning innehåller huvuddragen i det diskursanalytiska seendet. Texten, som från början är en installationsföreläsning vid Collège de France i Paris, är en sammanfattning av ett helt diskursanalytiskt ramverk, som inte bara innefattar teoretiska insikter utan också praktiska hållpunkter för hur konkreta studier kan utföras. Foucaults tänkande har haft stor betydelse för medie- och kommunikationsvetare och fortsätter att inspirera till nya studier och kritiskt tänkande kring makt, kunskap och kommunikation.

Motorspriten kommer! : en historia om etanol och andra alternativa drivmedel
- 2014
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Motorspriten kommer! löd budskapet i början av 1900-talet. Liknande utfästelser om alternativa drivmedel har gång på gång hörts genom historien. Men de oljebaserade bränslena har behållit sitt grepp om transportsystemet, trots att de alltid ansetts problematiska. Varför?Den här boken handlar om olika försök att utveckla och förverkliga alternativ till oljebaserade drivmedel i Sverige. Den spänner över ett drygt sekel, från slutet av 1800-talet och framåt, och behandlar bland annat sulfitsprit, syntetisk bensin, gengas, metanol och den första och andra generationens etanol. I fokus står motiven bakom dessa alternativ varför de har ansetts angelägna och önskvärda liksom de problem och strukturella hinder som de har mött och alltjämt fortsätter att möta. Boken ger historiska och medievetenskapliga perspektiv på de pågående försöken till en omställning på drivmedelsområdet och bidrar till kunskap av värde för såväl beslutsfattare som allmänhet.Boken bygger på forskning som utfördes inom det tvärvetenskapliga projektet Framtidens drivmedel? Biobränslen i historisk och kulturell belysning. Den är skriven av samtliga forskare i projektet Annika Egan Sjölander, Helena Ekerholm, Jenny Eklöf, Erland Mårald, Christer Nordlund och Bosse Sundin i samarbete med Henrik Lång.

På pränt i pressen om kärnavfall

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Finns det några (o)likheter i nationella och lokala/regionala mediers hantering av kärnavfallsfrågan? En jämförelse mellan nationella och lokala mediers rapportering och debatt är intressant, eftersom acceptansen för ett slutförvar är väsentligt högre i platsundersökningskommunerna än i landet i övrigt. Massmedierna är både en arena och en aktör i opinionsbildningen och har centrala demokratiska funktioner. I denna studie visas att medierna snarare förstärker än utjämnar skillnader i acceptans.

Som natt och dag trots samma kärnas ursprung? : om (o)likheter och opinioner i nationella och lokala/regionala mediers hantering av kärnavfallsfrågan
- 2007
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Detta forskningsprojekt handlar om de svenska massmediernas hantering av kärnavfallsfrågan under platsundersökningarnas fyra första år. Markanta olikheter mellan nationella och lokala opinioner utgör en central utgångspunkt i studien. Det huvudsakliga syftet är att kvantitativt och kvalitativt analysera (o)likheter i den mediala opinionsbildningen kring kärnavfallsfrågan på riks- respektive lokalplan från platsundersökningarnas början i december 2001 fram till december 2005.Tidningar och tevenyheter i nationella, regionala och lokala medier har undersökts. Totalt sett har 1 118 artiklar och 77 teveinslag analyserats, hämtade från femton olika massmedier. Kvantitativ innehållsanalys är den metod som tillämpats för att ta reda på dels vad som tagits upp i medierna, dels vem/vilka aktörer som deltagit och dels hur den journalistiska bevakningen och mediedebatten fördelat sig över tid. Analytiska verktyg från kvalitativ textanalys har också använts för att närstudera hur meningsskapandet kring kärnavfallsfrågan ser ut.Resultaten visar att det finns både likheter och olikheter i den mediala opinionsbildningen på riks- respektive lokalplanet. Journalistikens uttryck har varierat, såväl innehållsligt som över tid. Störst var bevakningen i början av år 2002 i samband med att Östhammar, Tierp och Oskarshamn tog ställning till ett fortsatt deltagande i platsvalsprocessen. Påfallande få exempel på undersökande journalistik kan identifieras i materialet. Bildanvändningen i de olika medierna visar på stora likheter. Platsundersökning och SKB är vanligaste teman i pressens texter och televisionens nyhetssändningar. Men intresset för provborrningarna och det lokala arbetet med slutförvarsfrågan, vilket är stort i de lokala och regionala medierna, behandlas däremot knappast alls av riksmedierna. Däremot uppmärksammar de exempelvis transmutationsteknik som en tänkbar lösning på kärnavfallsproblemet. Detta tema berörs i sin tur mycket sällan i de lokala debatterna och förkastas helt av SKB och andra centrala kärnavfallsaktörer som ett tänkbart alternativ till den planerade slutförvaringen.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Indigenous peoples’ movements in Brazil have been increasing their presence and visibility online in recent years, especially in social media. Inspired by Norman Fairclough’s early work on critical discourse analysis (CDA) and communicative events, we explore two protests organized by Indigenous rights movements shortly after the right-wing nationalist President Jair Bolsonaro took office in January 2019. Social media content connected to #Red January and #Free Land Camp are analysed, focusing on the use of Facebook by the Articulation of Indigenous Peoples in Brazil (APIB), and the Facebook, Instagram and Twitter activities of Rádio Yandê, a pioneer online radio station established by Indigenous peoples. The chapter highlights how Indigenous media activists construct their contemporary indigeneity online, on their own terms, challenging hegemonic stereotypes and dominant discourses that seek to undermine their legitimacy and power. The analysis shows that both movements articulate, negotiate and translate their identities in connection to ideas of land, nature and justice. Digital networks complicate and impact the dynamics of local, national and global discourse, and also attest to the significance of Indigenous owned media initiatives in the strive for social progress.

Beyond the Blog
- 2012
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This dissertation examines weblog community as a materially afforded and socially constructed space. In a set of three case studies, this dissertation examines three separate weblog communities between 2004 and 2008. CASE STUDY I looks at knowledge management bloggers in order to better understand how bloggers form communities. In this case study, it will be shown that blogs group thematically and in temporal bursts. These bursts of thematic activity allow for movement in and out of a community, as well as act as a bridge between different weblog communities. CASE STUDY II examines two pseudonymous bloggers in order to better understand how presentation and identity is understood in blogging. It will be shown in CASE STUDY II that social identity in weblog communities is negotiated through blogging practices such as transparency in writing and truthful presentation. CASE STUDY III delves further into social identity by examining a community of academic bloggers and how traditional, institutionalized expectations influence social identity over time, and if this influence differs in the core and periphery of the community. It will be shown in CASE STUDY III that there is indeed a difference in how social identity is negotiated and performed between core and periphery members of a weblog community. Finally, a model towards an integrated approach to researching blogs is put forth.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Firefighters are exposed to traumatic and stressful psychosocial and physical strain in their work, and thus they are considered to be a group at high risk of burnout. The aim of this study was to investigate burnout (emotional exhaustion (EE) and depersonalization (DP) among Swedish female and male firefighters and to examine the gender-stratified relationship between psychosocial work environment and burnout when considering the moderating effect of coping strategies among Swedish firefighters. The overall mean values of both EE and DP were notably low in comparison with the general population in Sweden. We found that psychosocial work environment factors increase the risk of burnout among male firefighters. Among men, EE was associated with high demands and lack of social support in work. The association was also confirmed with DP as the outcome and lack of good leadership as the exposure among men. However, among female firefighters the association between psychosocial work environment factors and burnout failed to appear. Among women, EE and DP were only associated with the coping strategy Psychological distancing (PDi). A negative association with DP and the coping strategy Positive Reappraisal (PRe) was also found among women. Regardless of the result from the regression analyses, we must consider that the majority of the female and male firefighters in our study had low scores on the outcome variables EE and DP. Future studies should explore female and male firefighters' context and possible health-protecting environment.
