Menn i pleieyrker : kjønnsforskjeller i jobbavgang blant pleiere i helse- og omsorgssektoren

2014

Masteroppgave i velferdsstudier – Universitetet i Agder 2014 Studier på jobbavgang viser at menn i pleieyrker slutter i større grad enn sine kvinnelige kolleger i sin jobb. Vi undersøkte i denne oppgaven hva som forklarer jobbavgang hos menn i pleieyrker gjennom proxymålet intensjon om jobbavgang. Dette ansees som den nærmeste forløperen før faktisk jobbavgang, og studier på dette kan veilede på tilnærmingsmåter for å bedre beholde menn i disse yrkene. Et kjønnsfokus har veiledet oss innen forskningslitteraturen på jobbavgang og vi identifiserte seks hypoteser som så ut til å påvirke intensjonen om å slutte i sin jobb. Disse var; Kjønnssegregerte arbeidsplasser, sosial inkludering, tidspres…

Lav fertilitet i Europa og forskjeller mellom europeiske land

2014

Masteroppgave i velferdsstudier – Universitetet i Agder 2014 Denne masteroppgaven presenterer ulike forklaringer på hvorfor dagens Europa har lav fertilitet, og hvorfor fertiliteten varierer mellom europeiske land. De fleste er enige i at foreldrenes, og spesielt kvinnenes, mulighet til å kombinere barneomsorg med utdanning og arbeid, er viktige for å oppnå høyere fertilitet i et land (Mills, Ronald, McDonald og te Velde m. fl., 2011; Salles, Clémentine og Brachet, 2010; Billari, 2008; Sigle-Rushton, 2008; Gauthier, 2007; D’Addio og D’Ercole, 2005). Det er likevel noe uenighet om akkurat hvilke virkemidler som eventuelt hindrer eller støtter foreldrenes eller mødrenes muligheter til å kombi…

Gender and Labour in the Music Industry : An exploration into why the music industry has a gender problem and what can be done to change it

2016

Master's thesis in music management MU501 - University of Agder 2016 While numbers are missing, it has become clear over the past decade that the music industry is a place of far-reaching gender imbalance in the form of gender segregation. This paper aims to look at why this is the case, basing its line of argumentation on a close understanding of the mechanisms and structures that lead to the disparity of gender representation in the music industry. It aims at contradicting myths about working in the music industry that, instead of being "cool, creative and egalitarian" (Gill, 2002), proves to be an insecure, exclusive and heavily biased place of work based on informality and exploitation,…

¨Fordi jeg har lyst til å være flink¨ En kvalitativ undersøkelse av identitetsprosesser knyttet til unge jenters valg av karriererettede studier

2015

Masteroppgave pedagogikk- Universitetet i Agder, 2015 Stadig flere jenter søker seg til karriererettede utdanninger. Mye tyder på at kvinner har begynt å ta igjen mennene når det gjelder ambisjoner med tanke på lønn og posisjoner i arbeidslivet, som da gjør at unge jenter gjør seg mer og mer gjeldene i de høyere utdanningene (Bergersen, 2011). Hva er det som driver disse jentene inn i slike karriererettede studier, og hvorfor er høy lønn og status i arbeidslivet og livet generelt blitt så viktig? Med utgangspunkt i dette vil denne studien prøve å skape en større forståelse rundt hvilke identitetsprosesser som kan knyttes til unge jenters valg av karriererettede studier. Studien har en kvali…

"Hva mener dere med likestilling, da?" : overføring av kunnskap om likestilling mellom kjønn i spenningsfeltet mellom ord og handling

2013

Published version of a chapter in the book: Likestilling 2013 : kunnskap og innovasjon på Agder, redigert av Hanne Stousland og Hilde Witsø. Dette kapitlet er et bidrag i debatten om hvordan lærerutdanningsinstitusjoner kan tilrettelegge for opplæring i likestillingsspørsmål. Vi har gjennom et prosjekt fulgt tre studenter som har prøvd ut de likestillingsverktøyene som er utarbeidet av Fritt valg i ungdomsskolen. En modell for taus kunnskap er brukt for å analysere resultatene fra undersøkelsen, og det er funnene fra denne analysen som presenteres her. Det ene funnet er at Fritt valgs likestillingsverktøy er gode metodiske hjelpemidler til å bringe tema om likestilling på banen i skolen. De…

Between good end evil: on the moral ambiguity in "Buffy and the vampire slayer"

2007

Masteroppgave i engelsk, Høgskolen i Agder, Kristiansand Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer aims to empower young women through a declared feminist agenda. The main body of this thesis explores what it is that makes Buffy a television show with a feminist agenda. This thesis analyzes areas which privileges and problematizes human agency from the perspective morals in society. The series advocates using one’s agency in order to optimize potentiality. The thesis examines emotions and human agency; manslaughter and notions of the Übermensch, and finally, the claim of agency and consequent empowerment of women. I have found that several aspects of the series problematize moral choices and p…

International Vocational Education and Training Research: An Introduction to the Special Issue

2021

The seven articles in this special issue represent a wide range of international comparative and review studies by international research teams from China, Germany, India, Russia, Switzerland and Mexico. The presented projects are part of the national program "Research on the Internationalisation of Vocational Education and Training", funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). An adapted version of Urie Bronfenbrenner���s ecological systems theory forms the conceptual framework of the special issue. The four system levels (micro, meso, exo and macro) are addressed by one article each. The article on the microsystem level focuses on the intended and implemented c…

Regional gender inequality in the Norwegian culture of equality

2014

Published version of an article in the journal: Gender Issues. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12147-014-9131-0 This research project has its origin in statistical findings indicating that there has been a long-standing regional variation in the attainment of gender equality in Norway whereby the southern region has been identified as the least gender-equal. This is likely to be caused by an interaction of economic, political and cultural structures. Nevertheless, the understanding of this phenomenon remains incomplete since the cultural dimension too often ends up as a residual category or a dependent variable. The project seeks to explore the cultural dime…

Kerr self-cleaning of pulsed beam in an ytterbium doped multimode fiber

2017

International audience; We experimentally demonstrate that Kerr spatial self-cleaning of a pulsed beam can be obtained in an amplifying multimode optical fiber. An input peak power of 500 W only was sufficient to produce a quasi-single-mode emission from the double-clad ytterbium doped multimode fiber (YMMF) with non-parabolic refractive index profile. We compare the self-cleaning behavior observed in the same fiber with loss and with gain. Laser gain introduces new opportunities to achieve spatial self-cleaning of light in multimode fibers at a relatively low power threshold.
