The study is descriptive, using statistical techniques with classic indicators (means, percentages). The results show that nuclear familie…

Dona, pobra, mare i fadrina contra l?autoritat moral. El procés inquisitorial d?Àgueda Guimerà (1804)

2020

Resum: En 1804, el Tribunal de la Inquisició vivia els seus darrers moments. Lluny de les grans persecucions inicials contra jueus i moriscos, el Sant Ofici semblava llanguir, però sense dubte, tot i que amb menys força que en temps passats, encara era un instrument formidable de repressió. En aquest context, Àgueda Guimerà, mare soltera, i per això criticada i maltractada, va haver de fer front a una denúncia per calúmnies per part del seu confessor en què en tot moment plana la sospita del delicte de sol·licitació en acte de confessióParaules clau: Inquisició, conducta moral, dona soltera, segle XIX, sol·licitacióAbstract: In 1804, the Court of the Inquisition was living its last moments.…

Parents and nurses in a neonatal intensive care unit: the development of a mutual beneficial partnership in the care of the infant

2009

Ph.D. Thesis, University of Oslo - Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Health and Society ”Foreldre og sykepleiere på en nyfødtavdeling - utvikling av et likeverdig partnerskap i omsorgen for barnet” Studien viser hvor viktig det er umiddelbart å involvere foreldre i omsorgen for det premature barnet, og at ansvar avklares ved at sykepleier og foreldre i fellesskap blir enige om hvordan, på hvilke områder og i hvilken grad foreldre ønsker å delta. Etter fødselen og når barnet er akutt sykt vil sykepleier ta hovedansvaret mens foreldre oppfordres til å være til stede og gi barnet fysisk kontakt. Studien viser hvor krevende starten oppleves for foreldrene, og at sykepleiers tidlige involvering …

Analysis of dietary patterns and nutritional adequacy in lactating women : a multicentre European cohort (ATLAS study)

2021

Abstract Eating habits of lactating women can influence the nutrient composition of human milk, which in turn influences nutrient intake of breastfed infants. The aim of the present study was to identify food patterns and nutritional adequacy among lactating women in Europe. Data from a multicentre European longitudinal cohort (ATLAS study) were analysed to identify dietary patterns using cluster analysis. Dietary information from 180 lactating women was obtained using 3-d food diaries over the first 4 months of lactation. Four dietary patterns were identified: ‘vege-oils’, ‘fish-poultry’, ‘confectionery-salads’ and ‘mixed dishes’. Nutrition adequacy was not significantly different between …

Positive parenting and parenting stress among working mothers in Finland, the UK and the Netherlands : Do working time patterns matter?

2017

This study explored the effects of working time patterns on positive parenting and parenting stress, and the moderating effects of working hours, the unpredictability of work schedules, and autonomy over working time in a European context. This cross-national survey study compared Finnish (n = 337), Dutch (n = 283) and British (n = 317) mothers with children under the age of 13, using structural equation modeling with a multigroup procedure. We found a connection between working time patterns and positive parenting but the nature of the connection differed between countries. In all three countries, no relationship was found between working time pattern and parenting stress, while unpredict…

Displaying morally responsible motherhood : lone mothers accounting for work during non-standard hours

2020

This study examined how lone mothers rationalise their work during non-standard hours (e.g., evenings and weekends), which they perceive as problematic in terms of child wellbeing, and thereby as violating the culturally shared moral order of ‘good’ motherhood. The data comprise interviews with 16 Finnish lone mothers, analysed as accounts, with a special focus on their linguistic features. The mothers displayed morally responsible motherhood through: (1) excusing work during non-standard hours as an external demand; (2) appealing to an inability to act according to good mothering ideals; (3) using adaptive strategies to protect child wellbeing; and (4) challenging the idea of risk. Our fin…

The relation between maternal locus of control and coping strategies of the child with leukemia in treatment phase

2020

The present study focuses on the relation between coping strategies of children with leukemia during treatment and locus of control of their mothers.
