  • Ung i Halland
  • 2006
  • Reports (pop. science, debate, etc.)abstract
    • De främsta miljöerna där barn/ungdomar vistas är i hemmet, skolan och fritiden. Dessa miljöer har därmed stor betydelse för ungdomars hälsa och välbefi nnande. Under sin uppväxt tillbringar t.ex. barn mer än 15 000 timmar i skolan!Det är viktigt att ställa sig frågorna; Vad kan göras för att bevara, stärka och främja hälsan och välbefi nnandet för alla ungdomar? Vilka generella insatser har betydelse oavsett om det gäller i hemmet, i skolan eller på fritidsarenan? Vad kan göras för att förebygga och komma tillrätta med den ohälsa som vi kan se drabbar ungdomarna idag? Vilka specifi ka insatser har betydelse? Det är viktigt med konkreta insatser i många fall omgående, men det är också viktigt att tänka långsiktigt, att våga satsa tidigt och tänka efter före. Att även satsa på forsknings- och utvecklingsprojekt behövs för att på ett vetenskapligt sätt kunna följa upp konsekvenserna av olika insatser för att insatserna i framtiden skall bli så rätta som möjligt. Detta behöver göras för både generella och specifi ka insatser.Hälsa och välbefi nnande är ett välfärdsmått och därmed en politisk fråga på alla plan, lokalt, regionalt, nationellt och globalt. Barn och ungdomars hälsa och välbefi nnande är också en angelägenhet för alla, vår framtid, våga därför satsa nu! Delaktighet och infl ytande har positiv effekt på både hälsa och välbefinnande, låt därför barn och ungdomar i än större omfattning vara med och bestämma i de frågor som rör dem. Att utgå från Barnkonventionen ”att barns bästa ska sättas i främsta rummet samt att barn och unga har rätt till bästa uppnåeliga hälsa” i alla beslut som fattas är ett utmärkt utgångsläge – för framtiden!

  • Projektledning
  • 2013
  • Book (pop. science, debate, etc.)abstract
    • Projektledning är ett yrke med egen certifiering. Det pågår en spännande utveckling inom området och det blir allt viktigare att hålla sig ajour med utvecklingen.Det övergripande målet med den här handboken är att vara en ständigt aktuell heltäckande bok om projektar­bete. Innehållsmässigt täcker den både frågor som har med struktur och styrning att göra och frågor om ledning av människor och mänskliga processer i grupp. Kompetens inom projekt byggs av både kunskap och erfarenhet. Vi följer kontinuerligt aktuell forskning inom dessa områden och bjuder in intressanta forskare att medverka som författare. Vi skildrar verkliga projekt och låter erfarenheterna få plats, både de bästa erfarenheterna och de utmaningar som man tagit sig igenom.Handboken är levande och det innebär att artiklar tas bort för att ge plats för nya, i takt med att den uppdateras fortlöpande.

  • Caring as an important foundation in coaching for social sustainability: a case study of a successful Swedish coach inhigh-performance sport
  • 2014
  • In: Reflective Practice. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1462-3943 .- 1470-1103. ; 15:1, s. 27-39
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • The aim of this study is to describe and analyze the experiences and strategies of one successful coach in high-performance sports. Through case study methodology we have studied Bengt Johansson, one of the most successful coaches in Sweden ever. From the perspective of social sustainability, caring seems to have constituted an important basis for coaching the Swedish national team in handball during Bengt Johansson′s years as head coach. Caring in this sense means to respect the players, value them, involve them, have dialogue with them, listen to them and support them as human beings. Johansson has demonstrated how competitiveness, dedication and hard work coexist alongside compassion, empathy, participation and caring. © 2013 Taylor & Francis.

  • Shifting, crossing and transforming gender boundaries in physical cultures
  • 2016
  • In: Sport in Society. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1743-0437 .- 1743-0445. ; 19:5
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • At the 2013 conference “Gender in Physical Culture” of the ‘Transnational Working Group for the Study of Gender and Sport’, held at the University of Gothenburg, a number of presentations related to how individuals, groups of individuals and organizations challenge and change dominant gender discourses and practices. Several of these presentations have come to form this volume on ‘Gender in Physical Culture: Crossing Boundaries – Reconstituting Cultures’. To begin the volume, the following article outlines how the seven contributions are connected. We present Lamont and Molnàr’s (2002) idea of ‘boundaries’, which they consider as visible and invisible socially constructed borders that create social differences. Such boundaries are, however, malleable. We propose that this flexibility means that ‘gender boundaries in physical cultures’ can be shifted, crossed and transformed. The case studies included in this edition present concrete examples of how this is possible.

  • Tracing the career paths of top-level women football coaches : turning points to understand and develop sport coaching careers
  • 2014
  • In: Sports Coaching Review. - : Routledge. - 2164-0629 .- 2164-0637. ; 3:2, s. 117-131
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • This study examines how women football coaches reach top-level coaching positions. Semi-structured interviews and a biographical mapping grid gave a sample of 19 women coaches the opportunity to identify factors that impacted their coaching career paths. Hodkinson and Sparkes’ (1997) sociological theory ‘careership’, and in particular their metaphor of ‘turning points’ are employed to: (1) differentiate between the life events that shaped the women’s coaching career development; and (2) outline and conceptualize the career decisions and types of learning that followed these events. The results demonstrate that the women coaches did not necessarily consider coaching as a possible career pathway before and when entering the occupation, but that ‘structural’ turning points enabled them to start and progress a coaching career. Further, ‘forced’ and ‘self-initiated’ turning points significantly affected career development. A key implication is for women coaches to develop ‘coaching career visions’, which can be created and reinforced through strategic entry points and associated support systems.

  • Health Promotion of Refugees – Empirical Evidence from Approaches in two European Countries
  • 2019
  • In: 9th Nordic Health Promotion Research Conference. ; , s. 39-40
  • Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • The migration of many people to European countries in the last years created various challenges and evoked diverse responses. But rarely, lessons learned and good practice for health promotion interventions are exchanged between countries nor common solutions sought. In this workshop, we will shed light on the health situations of refugees in Sweden and Germany, and present four research projects regarding the health of refugees.Initially, we will outline the situation for refugees in the two countries generally, provide ample evidence on the health needs and particular burden of refugees, and discuss the increasing influence of racism. Finally, we will discuss the issue health promotion of refugees, needs, approaches, limitations.

  • Caring as sustainable coaching in elite athletics : Benefits and challenges
  • 2020
  • In: Sport Coaching Review. - Abingdon : Routledge. - 2164-0629 .- 2164-0637. ; 9:1, s. 48-70
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Coaches in elite sport must ensure a balance between performance, high pressure and well-being. A caring approach, based on a coach’s commitment to caring for athletes, has the potential to create such a balance and sustainability. The aim of this study was to identify coaches’ caring and problematise their ethics of care in relation to sustainability. We draw on and integrate the theoretical concept of caring into a conception of (un-) sustainable sport. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven Swedish elite athletics coaches. Results show that coaches’ ethics of care is important for creating sustainable elite athletics practices, but that caring also conflicts with sustainability thinking if coaches do not base their actions on practical wisdom and moral and ethical dilemmas.

  • Sustainable elite sport : Swedish athletes' voices of sustainability in athletics
  • 2021
  • In: Qualitative Research in Sport, Exercise and Health. - Abingdon : Routledge. - 2159-676X .- 2159-6778. ; 13:5, s. 727-742
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Elite sport is a precarious context and as athletes are pushing their physical and mental boundaries to enhance performance, consequences can be devastating. In contrast to arguments that elite sport cannot be sustainable, some scholars have argued that with certain considerations and precautions, elite sport can have fewer unsustainable consequences. However, the current literature has missed to capture athletes' voices regarding sustainability in elite sport. Therefore, this article aims to give voice to athletes and their needs and concerns regarding sustainable elite sport and through this, to extend the existing elite sport sustainability conceptualisation with knowledge from the athlete perspective. Focus-group interviews were conducted with 15 high performance athletes. The findings suggest that athletes need athlete-centred coaching, focus on holistic perspectives, and co-creation of their overall development. However, athletes also seem to adapt and accept commodity structures, as their focus on results overrules most aspects regarding long-term health and well-being.

  • Swedish elite athletics coaches’ professional development in practices of organized coaches’ meetings
  • 2021
  • In: Education Inquiry. - Abingdon : Routledge. - 2000-4508.
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • In this paper, we investigate how elite coaches reflect on their practice and interact with each other, as part of their informal professional development. We use observations of 14 coach meetings, over a period of two years, where coaches came together to share their experiences of coaching elite athletics, and to discuss ways for continuous professional development. Through an action research approach, data collected included notes and audiorecorded conversations. The theory of practice architectures was employed as a theoretical tool to frame the analysis of the data inorder to understand the meeting practices and how these practices were enabled and constrained. The research revealed how conversations led to awareness, which became turning points for new practices. Specifically, the coaches became aware of the importance of belonging to a community, their lack of knowledge and understanding of inequality, and the complexity of coaching.The meetings, as forums for dialogic practice, were enabled by open-minded collaboration, a willingness to share experiences, and a mutual understanding of the coaching context, but they were also constrained by the structures of coaches’ athletics clubs and federations, that do not fully support coaches’ meetings as an informal educational practice for professional development. © 2021 The Author(s).

  • A consensus document on definition and diagnostic criteria for orthorexia nervosa
  • 2022
  • In: Eating and Weight Disorders. - Milan : Springer. - 1124-4909 .- 1590-1262. ; 27, s. 3695-3711
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Purpose: Since the term orthorexia nervosa (ON) was coined from the Greek (ὀρθός, right and ὄρεξις, appetite) in 1997 to describe an obsession with “correct” eating, it has been used worldwide without a consistent definition. Although multiple authors have proposed diagnostic criteria, and many theoretical papers have been published, no consensus definition of ON exists, empirical primary evidence is limited, and ON is not a standardized diagnosis. These gaps prevent research to identify risk and protective factors, pathophysiology, functional consequences, and evidence-based therapeutic treatments. The aims of the current study are to categorize the common observations and presentations of ON pathology among experts in the eating disorder field, propose tentative diagnostic criteria, and consider which DSM chapter and category would be most appropriate for ON should it be included.Methods: 47 eating disorder researchers and multidisciplinary treatment specialists from 14 different countries across four continents completed a three-phase modified Delphi process, with 75% agreement determined as the threshold for a statement to be included in the final consensus document. In phase I, participants were asked via online survey to agree or disagree with 67 statements about ON in four categories: A–Definition, Clinical Aspects, Duration; B–Consequences; C–Onset; D–Exclusion Criteria, and comment on their rationale. Responses were used to modify the statements which were then provided to the same participants for phase II, a second round of feedback, again in online survey form. Responses to phase II were used to modify and improve the statements for phase III, in which statements that met the predetermined 75% of agreement threshold were provided for review and commentary by all participants.Results: 27 statements met or exceeded the consensus threshold and were compiled into proposed diagnostic criteria for ON.Conclusions: This is the first time a standardized definition of ON has been developed from a worldwide, multidisciplinary cohort of experts. It represents a summary of observations, clinical expertise, and research findings from a wide base of knowledge. It may be used as a base for diagnosis, treatment protocols, and further research to answer the open questions that remain, particularly the functional consequences of ON and how it might be prevented or identified and intervened upon in its early stages. Although the participants encompass many countries and disciplines, further research will be needed to determine if these diagnostic criteria are applicable to the experience of ON in geographic areas not represented in the current expert panel.Level of evidence: Level V: opinions of expert committees.© 2022, The Author(s).

  • Dialogträning på vårdarbetsplatser
  • 2011
  • Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
    • Bakgrund, syfte och design Begreppet dialog har använts för att definiera välfungerande och utvecklingsinriktad kommunikation och inbegriper att uttrycka genuina uppfattningar, erfarenheter och känslor, att vänta in, lyssna på och respektera andra perspektiv än det egna samt att vara beredd att låta sig påverkas. Studien var en klusterrandomiserad kontrollerad studie av en dialogträningsmetods effekter på dialogklimat och psykosocial arbetsmiljö bland personal vid enheter inom svensk sjukvård. Träningseffekter och träningsprocessen studerades även i en kvalitativ intervjustudie bland tränade. Träningen genomfördes på fem enheter inom svensk sjukvård och fem enheter utgjorde kontrollgrupp. Kontrollbetingelsen bestod av en konventionell föreläsning om dialog på arbetsplatsen. Metod Inklusionskriterier för enheter var chefens motivation och intresse, frånvaro av allvarliga samarbetssvårigheter samt att organisationsförändringar inte planerades under studieperioden. Träningen genomfördes i mindre grupper och följde en fast struktur men där utrymme fanns för situationsanpassade processinterventioner och kunskapsförmedling av tränarna. Tre legitimerade psykoterapeuter med erfarenhet av att leda gruppsamtal var tränare. Data insamlades med enkäter före träning samt 3 och 6 månader efter träning. 277 personer deltog, varav 158 tränades. Intervjuer med 21 deltagare genomfördes efter träningsperioden. Resultat Den kvantitativa effektstudien indikerade positiv träningseffekt på dialogklimat och psykosocial arbetsmiljö, dock med varierande grad av säkerhet. Resultaten pekade på att effekter kunde öka mellan tre- och sexmånadersuppföljningarna, vilket var oväntat. Den kvalitativa studien fann att deltagare kunde berätta om a) omedelbara träningseffekter i termer av Dialogöppningar (öppet klimat under träningen, utrymme för lyssnande och tal, tid för reflektion och perspektivbyte, vägledning i att formulera egna ståndpunkter, medvetenhet om styrkan i normer och värderingar) samt b) Förändrade kommunikationsmönster i arbetet (undvikande av förolämpningar och ironi, att våga säga sin mening och begära, att vara hänsynsfull och balanserad samt att konstruktivt konfrontera). De kvalitativa resultaten visade också förhållanden som möjliggör respektive försvårar dialog på vårdarbetsplatser, samt att motstånd mot träningen förekommit. Slutsatser Vi drog slutsatsen att dialogträning enligt den beskrivna metodiken var effektiv som medel att påverka kommunikationen bland deltagarna i dialogisk riktning och att öka deras inflytande i arbetet. Keywords Dialog, Feedback, Inflytande, Intervention, Kommunikation, Mixed method, Mixed models, Psykosocial, Teamklimat, Vård.

  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • This study is a one year case study of a programme promoting physical activity and healthy eating habits in a secondary school. The aim was to describe and evaluate a school-based health promoting programme on interest in and participation in physical education (PE), eating habits and physical exercise habits, Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance and self-efficacy for boys and girls before and after the programme. One hundred and sixty-four participants completed questionnaires in December 2007 and December 2008. The results showed increased interest and active participation in PE in girls and an opposite among boys at the post-test. Fewer boys reported regular eating habits after the programme. Girls scored higher on the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire subdomain awareness of a slimness ideal, and boys on the subdomain awareness of a muscular body as well as on the subdomain muscular appearance at the post-test. The results from this study cannot be generalized. Instead, the findings can be used for future research and to develop school-based health promotion programs. Conclusions and implications are discussed in the article.

  • Obsession with diet among fitness center participants in relation to body ideal and social physique anxiety
  • 2009
  • In: 6th Eass Conference “Sports, Bodies, Identities” Rome, May 27th - 31st 2009.
  • Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Several studies indicate that women are more likely than men to exercise for appearancerelated reasons, but today, even men have become more concerned about how they look. Exercise and/or diets are sometimes used in an attempt to develop a more attractive physique. Strict diets such as an obsession with healthy food, sometimes termed orthorexia nervosa (ON), are controversial and have been questioned by researchers. This study investigates how scores on the Social Physique Anxiety Scale (SPAS) and the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire (SATAQ) relate to Bratman’s orthorexia test (BOT) scores with regard to age, sex, and self-reported exercise frequency and duration. The fitness participants (n=251, 166 women and 85 men, 21% dropout) were consecutively selected from five fitness centers in Sweden. They completed the BOT, SPAS, SATAQ, and a questionnaire focusing on exercise frequency and duration. Multiple stepwise regression analysis was used and the significance level set at 5%. In men, the results indicated that the SATAQ subdomain internalization could itself explain the variation in BOT results. In women, the results demonstrated that exercise frequency, in combination with the SPAS score and the SATAQ subdomains of internalization and awareness, could explain the variation in BOT results. Internalization of a slimness ideal (for women) and a muscular body (for men) can be a risk factor for obsession with diet. In the same way, higher exercise frequency, a higher level of social physique anxiety and awareness of Western body ideals seem to be predictors of obsession with diet among women. It is possible that the fitness center environment emphasizes a body ideal that leads to an increased obsession with diet. On the other hand, it may be that people who are aware of the body ideal and are obsessed with diet are the ones who engage in fitness center activities.

  • In: Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports. - Copenhagen : Munksgaard Forlag. - 0905-7188 .- 1600-0838. ; 18:3, s. 389-394
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • This study investigates how scores on the Social Physique Anxiety Scale (SPAS) and the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire (SATAQ) relate to Bratman's orthorexia test (BOT) scores with regard to age, sex, and self-reported exercise frequency and duration in a sample of Swedish participants in fitness center activities. A total of 251 participants (166 women and 85 men) completed the SPAS, the SATAQ, and a questionnaire focusing on exercise frequency and duration. The results indicated that the SATAQ subdomain internalization could itself explain the variation in BOT results. In women, the results indicated that exercise frequency, followed by SPAS score and the SATAQ subdomains internalization and awareness, could together explain the variation in BOT results. Fitness centers could make a point of emphasizing that some physical ideals are neither healthy nor realistic, thus strengthening member self-image and preventing social physique anxiety, eating disorders, and negative attitudes toward appearance.

  • Integration into and through sports? Sport-activities for migrant children and youths
  • 2021
  • In: European Journal for Sport and Society. - Abingdon : Informa UK Limited. - 1613-8171 .- 2380-5919. ; 18:1, s. 64-81
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Migration over recent years has meant that issues of integration are high on the agenda. Sports clubs are considered important settings for promoting integration. This notion is reflected in national and international policy documents. This study focuses on how leaders in a non-profit sports club, operating in a community where a majority have a migrant background, work with the stated goal of promoting integration. The aim of this study is to explore how leaders interpret and negotiate their explicit assignment to promote integration and counteract segregation and how they try to implement strategies to reach these goals and also to explore how participants experience the sports club's activities related to aspects of integration. The study takes an ethnographic approach with participant observations and interviews. The results indicate that the leaders' work in terms of integration was related to negotiating diversity, norms, rules and language. Both leaders and participants highlight how the activities enhance feelings of trust despite racism in society and how the leaders worked to create relationships and to make the activities into safe spaces. Whether this work contributes to integration is, however, debatable and the leaders emphasised inclusion as their main strategy and goal.

  • Effects of an Empowerment-Based Health-Promotion School Intervention on Physical Activity and Sedentary Time among Adolescents in a Multicultural Area
  • 2018
  • In: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. - Basel : MDPI. - 1661-7827 .- 1660-4601. ; 15:11
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Physical activity (PA) decreases with age, and interventions are needed to promote PA during adolescence, especially, among those in low-socioeconomic status (SES) areas. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a two-year, empowerment-based health-promotion school intervention had any effects on changes in (a) moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), (b) sedentary time (SED), (c) exercise training (ET) frequency, and (d) ET duration, among adolescents. Participants (aged 12-13 years at baseline) from one intervention school and two control schools, were recruited from a multicultural area of Sweden, characterized by low-SES. During the course of the two-year intervention, a total of 135 participants (43% boys) were included in the study. The intervention was developed and implemented as a result of cooperation and shared decision-making among the researchers and the participants. MVPA and SED were measured with accelerometers, and ET frequency and duration was self-reported at the beginning of the seventh, eighth, and ninth grade, respectively. There were no significant effects of the two-year, empowerment-based health-promotion school intervention on changes in the accelerometer-measured MVPA and SED, or the self-reported ET frequency and duration, among the adolescents. Overall, the intervention was unsuccessful at promoting PA and reducing SED. Several possible explanations for the intervention's lack of effects are discussed.

  • Gender in physical culture
  • 2017
  • Editorial collection (other academic/artistic)abstract
    • This volume outlines existing research relating to gender in physical culture. The introductory chapter employs Lamont and Molnar's (2002) idea of 'boundaries' as visible and invisible socially constructed borders that create social differences, as the theoretical framework for the book. Seven empirically-driven case studies follow which, on the one hand, demonstrate how boundary 'work' has taken and is taking place at the level of media, institutions, communities and individuals; and on the other hand, show how individuals, groups of individuals and organisations challenge and change dominant gender discourses and practices. The wide variety of rich case materials reveal how gender ideals not only normalize, but are actively and purposefully negotiated and transformed to create individualised and inclusive physical culture contexts. The final chapter explores how the book builds on and extends existing gender and physical culture research. This book was originally published as a special issue of the journal Sport in Society.

  • Valuation and handling of dialogue in leadership : a grounded theory study in Swedish hospitals
  • 2011
  • In: Journal of Health Organization & Management. - Bradford, West Yorkshire, England : Emerald Group Publishing Limited. - 1477-7266 .- 1758-7247. ; 25:1, s. 34-54
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Purpose:Leadership can positively affect the work environment and health. Communication and dialogue are an important part in leadership. Studies of how dialogue is valued and handled in first-line leadership have not so far been found. The aim of this study is to develop a theoretical understanding of how first-line leaders at hospitals in western Sweden value and handle dialogue in the organisation.Design/methodology/approach:The study design was explorative and based on grounded theory. Data collection consisted of interviews and observations. A total of 11 first-line leaders at two hospitals in western Sweden were chosen as informants, and for four of them observation was also used.Findings:One core category emerged in the analysis: leaders' communicative actions, which could be strategically or understanding-oriented, and experienced as equal or unequal and performed equitably or inequitably, within a power relationship. Four different types of communicative actions emerged: collaborative, nurturing, controlling, and confrontational. Leaders had strategies for creating arenas and relationships for dialogue, but dialogue could be constrained by external circumstances or ignorance of the frameworks needed to conduct and accomplish dialogue.Practical implications:First-line leaders should be offered guidance in understanding the consequences of consciously choosing and strengthening the communication component in leadership.Originality/value: The positive valuation of dialogue was not always manifest in practical action. One significant consequence of not using dialogue was that information with impact on organisational efficiency and finances was communicated upwards in the management system. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.

  • Adolescent Girls' Experiences of Underlying Social Processes Triggering Stress in Their Everyday Life : A grounded theory study
  • 2011
  • In: Stress and Health. - Chichester : John Wiley & Sons. - 1532-3005 .- 1532-2998. ; 27:2, s. E61-E70
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • The aim of this study was to generate a theoretical model of underlying social processes that trigger stress in adolescent girls’ everyday life. In-depth interviews regarding the experiences of stress at home, school and during leisure time were conducted with 14 17-year-old schoolgirls. Data were analysed by means of the grounded theory method. Stress was triggered in the interaction between responsibility and the way in which the girls were encountered. Triggered emotional reactions took the form of four dimensions of stress included ambivalence, frustration, despair and downheartedness. These reactions were dependent on whether the girls voluntary assumed responsibility for various situations or whether they were forced, or felt they were being forced, to assume responsibility in interaction with an encounter characterized by closeness or distance. These forms of stress reactions could appear in one dimension and subsequently shift to another. From the public health perspective, the generated stress model can be used in the planning and implementation of future actions to prevent stress and promote well-being related to stress in adolescent girls.

  • Evaluation of a school-based health promotion programme for adolescents aged 12-15 years with focus on well-being related to stress.
  • 2008
  • In: Public health. - London : Elsevier BV. - 0033-3506 .- 1476-5616. ; 122:1, s. 25-33
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate a school-based adolescent health promotion programme with focus on well-being related to stress. STUDY DESIGN: Interventional and evaluative with tests before and after the intervention. The study was performed in two secondary schools in a town on the west coast of Sweden. METHODS: A health promotion programme comprising massage and mental training was implemented for a single academic year in one school (intervention school, 153 participants) in order to strengthen and maintain well-being. No intervention was implemented in the other school (non-intervention school, 287 participants). A questionnaire was developed and tested, resulting in 23 items distributed across the following six areas: self-reliance; leisure time; being an outsider; general and home satisfaction; school satisfaction; and school environment. RESULTS: A pre- and postintervention comparison of the six areas was made within each school. In the intervention school, the boys maintained a very good or good sense of well-being related to stress in all six areas, while the girls' sense of well-being was maintained in five areas and deteriorated in one area. In the non-intervention school, the boys maintained a very good or good sense of well-being related to stress in four areas and deteriorated in two areas, while the girls' sense of well-being was maintained in two areas and deteriorated in four areas. CONCLUSION: Massage and mental training helped to maintain adolescents' very good or good sense of well-being related to stress. A questionnaire with acceptable validity and reliability was developed and tested in order to evaluate the health promotional approach. However, there is a need for further study to develop both the intervention and the questionnaire for young people.

  • “It is easier to learn when you are out” : an ethnographic study of teaching science subjects through outdoor learning at compulsory school
  • 2024
  • In: Journal of Outdoor and Environmental Education. - Heidelberg : Springer. - 2206-3110 .- 2522-879X.
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Previous research has shown that feeling engaged in schoolwork is crucial for pupils to achieve, but engagement and motivation decline with age in many countries. To address these issues, we consider it is important that how we conceive learning include opportunities for learning outside the classroom. This study aimed to explore pupils’ experiences of being taught science subjects using outdoor learning, including the learning they achieved. The research was conducted using an ethnographic research design, a useful method for research in this type of environment where a greater understanding of teaching and learning processes is sought, enabling researchers to explore events more deeply. The study took place during one school year and was conducted for pupils in grade 6 in a school on Sweden’s west coast. This study provides unique insights into how these teacher efforts to offer outdoor learning opportunities have improved pupils’ willingness to participate. Likewise, how the pupils have developed knowledge of and used scientific concepts and skills in different contexts became visible when the pupils were allowed to try, explore, be creative, and observe in real life contexts in various places. In addition, the pupils have been given opportunities to ask, discuss and reflect on questions about various phenomena and processes in nature and humans. From the pupils’ point of view, this has contributed to their easier understanding of the content of the science subjects. These results significantly improve science literacy for science subjects in a school context (Holbrook & Rannikmae, 2009). © The Author(s) 2024.

  • What makes the everyday life of Swedish adolescent girls less stressful: a qualitative analysis
  • 2010
  • In: HEALTH PROMOTION INTERNATIONAL. - Oxford : Oxford University Press. - 0957-4824 .- 1460-2245. ; 25:2, s. 192-199
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Stress is a widespread phenomenon in society today, not least among children and adolescents. Stress-related ill-health has increased in this population and affects girls to a greater extent than boys. Against this background, it is important to acquire knowledge about measures that prevent stress, especially in girls. The aim of this study was therefore to illuminate adolescent girls' experiences and reflections about what makes everyday life less stressful. An explorative design, qualitative content analysis, was used. In-depth interviews were conducted with fifteen 17-year-old girls. The analysis comprised both manifest and latent content and revealed the girls' own experiences of and reflections about what makes everyday life less stressful. Three categories, ‘Enjoyment and Recovery’, ‘Trust’ and ‘Insight and Influence’, and nine subcategories emerged. The latent content of these categories is described by the theme ‘access to sources of strength’. It is essential that persons in the girls' surroundings are aware of all sources that provide the strength to resist and prevent stress in everyday life. A climate has to be created in all arenas of the girls' everyday life in which they can access these sources of strength. Utilizing the girls' experiences and views about what needs to be done is the first step towards a preventive and promotive mode of working on their own circumstances and wishes. This approach is consistent with the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, which emphasizes the importance of involving the target group.

  • “Someday it will be better again” : upper-secondary student athletes’ experiences of schoolwork and sport 7 and 14 months after the COVID-19 outbreak
  • 2023
  • In: Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research. - Abingdon : Routledge. - 0031-3831 .- 1470-1170.
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Globally, educational systems were thoroughly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Upper-secondary students were faced with school closures and distance education. For student-athletes, the COVID-19 pandemic, besides academic stress, also contributed to sports-related stress. In this paper, we explore upper-secondary school student athletes’ experiences of schoolwork and sport during two phases of the pandemic. A qualitative research design was used, and 53 student-athletes participated in focus group interviews. Three themes appeared: Struggling to cope with the new life situation, Reevaluating and longing for social life, and Speeding up the transition to adulthood. The themes were elucidated from temporal perspectives. The students experienced challenges in handling school, sports, and social life, but they also experienced opportunities for personal development. Student-athletes are a common responsibility between schools and sports, and, based on the results, schools and sports in collaboration need to increase readiness for action when major societal challenges, such as pandemics, occur. © 2023 The Author(s).

  • Health promotion in nursing education : Attitudes among nurse students
  • 2015
  • In: Acta Biomedica. - Fidenza : L'Ateneo Parmense. - 0392-4203. ; 86, s. 91-96
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) European Strategy for Nursing and Midwifery has called for the explicit inclusion and application of health promotion in all nursing curricula. However, research indicates that there are deficiencies in nursing education regarding health promotion in both the theoretical and practical elements of education. Insight into the experiences of European nursing students’ attitudes, positive or negative, about working in health promotion may provide a clue whether health promotion will be regarded as an important task and to what extent it will have priority in different parts of Europe. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare Italian and Swedish nursing students’ attitudes towards health promotion practice on matriculation to nursing school and after a three-year nursing education, and to explore whether attitudes towards health promotion practice correlate with BMI and smoking. Method: The study involved students who started their nursing education in autumn 2009 (n =240). Data were collected via a questionnaire. Results: The results show that the Swedish students had a more positive stance on health promotion than Italian students did. After completion of a three-year nursing education programme, Italian students’ attitudes on health promotion had improved, while no such development was seen in Sweden. Further, no correlation between lifestyle issues and attitudes to health promotion was found. Conclusion: Health promotion in nursing education may have important influence on students’ attitudes and thereby on the quantity and quality of future health promotion practice. © Mattioli 1885.

  • Empowering aspects for healthy food and physical activity habits : adolescents’ experiences of a school-based intervention in a disadvantaged urban community
  • 2018
  • In: International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-being. - Abingdon : Taylor & Francis. - 1748-2623 .- 1748-2631. ; 13:sup1: Equal Health
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Purpose:This study aimed to describe adolescents’ experiences of participating in a health-promoting school-based intervention regarding food and physical activity, with a focus on empowering aspects. Method:The school was located in a urban disadvantaged community in Sweden, characterized by poorer self-reported health and lower life expectancy than the municipality average. Focus group interviews with adolescents (29 girls, 20 boys, 14–15 years) and their teachers (n = 4) were conducted two years after intervention. Data were categorized using qualitative content analysis. Results: A theme was generated, intersecting with all the categories: Gaining control over one’s health: deciding, trying, and practicing together, in new ways, using reflective tools. The adolescents appreciated influencing the components of the intervention and collaborating with peers in active learning activities such as practicing sports and preparing meals. They also reported acquiring new health information, that trying new activities was inspiring, and the use of pedometers and photo-food diaries helped them reflect on their health behaviours. The adolescents’ experiences were also echoed by their teachers. Conclusions: To facilitate empowerment and stimulate learning, health-promotion interventions targeting adolescents could enable active learning activities in groups, by using visualizing tools to facilitate self-reflection, and allowing adolescents to influence intervention activities.

  • Empowering older people with age-related macular degeneration : An Empowerment-Based Physical Activity Intervention
  • 2023
  • Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of incurable visual impairment. These impacts include loss of social activities, decreased functional independence, and reduced physical activity.The purpose of the study was to explore the participants' experiences and meanings expressed by people with AMD participating in an empowerment-based intervention.Methods: The study has an explorative design based on ethnographic observations and informal interviews during the Empowerment-Based Physical Activity Intervention (EPI). The intervention embraced empowerment as a process and adopted the reflective equilibrium community empowerment approach. The EPI was carried out over six months and comprised adapted physical activity and social activities twice a week—furthermore, individual health coaching on three occasions. Nine women and two men aged 70-87 years old with AMD in Sweden participated in EPI. Field notes of the observations were analysed using a thematic method with an abductive approach.Findings: The analysis resulted in five themes: a) Feeling seen and included, b) Having a sense of security, c) Developing physical skills, d) Feeling meaningful and social connectedness, and e) Feeling increased motivation.Conclusion: Based on the findings, EPI has been a resource for the participants' well-being and development. The findings also filled a gap in the research literature and may provide insights into the potential of creative supervised, adapted physical activity in groups, health coaching, and socialising.
