Forskningsöversikt (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The aim with this literature review was to describe content, objectives, design, and outcomes of support groups for parentally bereaved children three to twelve years of age. In a support group with children in similar situation the children's thoughts, experiences and feelings will be normalised through different activities. Pedagogical methods include creative activities of different kinds, e.g. painting, writing letters and poems, reading stories, play and games. The purposes of the methods are to accept and understand the reality of the loss, to understand and work through the grieving, to enhance family communication, and to keep the memory of the death and go on living. Organisation and structure are described in relation to development levels and ages of children and youths. Outcomes of groups are characterized by clinical observations and a dearth of evaluative studies. All bereaved children should have the opportunity to participate in a support group when a parent, sibling or other relative dies. Well developed services for bereaved children should be a matter of health care policy and quality.

Meanings of being old and living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

- The aim of this study was to achieve a deeper understanding of the meaning of the lived experiences of elderly persons who are severely ill with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and in need of everyday care. Narratives from dialogues with six persons were interpreted using phenomenological–hermeneutic methodology. The structural analyses showed severe problems in daily life due to old age with a decaying body and dialectic experiences of resignation–contentedness, loneliness–connectedness, and being homeless–being at home. The interpreted whole reveals that life, suffering and comfort must be understood as an interlaced experience where ageing is just as important as the experience of illness. These elderly people's concerns and problems due to old age, a decaying body and being severely ill with COPD call for palliative and comfort care and thus challenge all professionals involved in their care.

Context and methodological decontextualisation in nursing research with examples from phenomenography
- 2000
-
Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Caring Sciences. - 0283-9318. ; 14, s. 37-43
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In both human science and nursing research the concept of context is important. However, context can be understood in different ways. The aim of this article is to elucidate, discuss and problematize context, decontextualization and recontextualization in some health care-related phenomenographical studies. A further aim is to problematize the concept of context in a wider perspective of human science, in order to gain a better understanding of phenomenographical research related to nursing care. Our analysis indicates that the complex phenomena which characterize nursing research demand a broad contextual understanding. Both the local or immediate context and the global or mediated context must be considered, as they are dialectically related. This includes the informants' experiences of the phenomenon of interest as well as the socio-cultural discourse. A balance between openness and pliability to the phenomenon is suggested. Reflection is considered an important tool in this process. Within phenomenography, the interest is directed towards conceptions of certain aspects of the world. Thus, context in a wider sense is given a subordinate role. Accordingly, phenomenography is considered to have limited applicability in nursing research when complex phenomena are to be studied.

On the use of narratives in nursing research
- 2000

Ingår i: Journal of Advanced Nursing. - 0309-2402. ; 32:3, s. 695-703
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- On the use of narratives in nursing research Narratives have always been a path to knowledge in nursing care but are a recent element within nursing research. Therefore, this article deals with the narrative and its use within nursing research. First, the use of narratives in nursing care and nursing research is examined. Second, Paul Ricoeur's narrative theory with its dimensions of interpretation, time, action and ethics is presented as a possible methodological basis. Third, the use of Ricoeur's narrative theory in nursing research is examined, showing that, at present, support mainly comes from Ricoeur's text interpretation theory. Finally, a nursing research approach to the narrative, based on the life-world, is suggested. PMID: 11012814 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
