    En människa bland andra?: Äldre människors begripliggörande av vardagen under covid-19-krisen2021In: Sociologisk forskning, ISSN 0038-0342, E-ISSN 2002-066X, Vol. 58, no 1-2, p. 53-76Article in journal (Refereed)

    A person among others? Older people’s understandings of their everyday life during the Covid-19 crisis

    This article examines how older people make sense of their situation in calls to a helpline a few months into the Covid-19 pandemic. By drawing on the sociology of everyday life to analyse callers’ various understandings of the crisis, the article nuances current knowledge about older people’s situation. The thematic analysis shows that the callers make sense of the crisis linked to social relations on a personal, anonymous, and abstract level. The callers’ responses to challenges to their everyday routines – adjustment or critical evaluation – are connected to different approaches to trust: basic trust in a shared social reality with someone or regulating trust in a set of norms independent from that other. Whereas the calls demonstrate very few positive adjustments in personal relations, they show that anonymous and abstract relations serve as important resources for both maintaining and re-evaluating everyday life during a crisis. Although older people’s lack of secure personal relations during the pandemic points to vulnerability, their resourcefulness is apparent in their active engagement in important anonymous and abstract relations.

    Emotion and management: How frontline care workers feel about using robot animals in elderly care2023In: The Sociological Review Magazine, E-ISSN 2754-1371Article in journal (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Recent demographic shifts in many parts of the world are presenting a challenge to society. An ageing population requires more care, even as there are fewer people of working age available to provide it. In order to make elderly care more efficient and to cope with staff shortages, various technological solutions have been proposed, including virtual assistants, telepresence robots, video games and – perhaps most unusual – robot animals.

    Helen Merrell Lynd: skam, skuld och identitet2022In: Sociologins klassiker: Upptäckter och återupptäckter / [ed] Lisa Eklund och Bo Isenberg, Lund: Studentlitteratur AB, 2022, 1, p. 319-334Chapter in book (Refereed)
    Abstract [sv]

    Amerikanskan Helen Merrell Lynd är en pionjär inom det som i dag kallas emotionssociologi. Utifrån idétraditioner som interaktionistisk sociologi och socialpsykologi utforskar hon emotionernas betydelse för individens identitetsutveckling. Hon för fram en emotion som viktigare än alla andra, nämligen skammen, som genom socialisationsprocessen förankras i individen i enlighet med samhällets normer och värderingar om acceptabelt och oacceptabelt beteende. Skamkänslan tjänar därmed som moralisk kompass för individens livsföring, då den har en självreglerande funktion. För att undvika skamkänslor behöver individen uppträda enligt de krav som samhället ställer. Skamkänslor är svåra att bli kvitt, då de väckts som en följd av ett brott mot de normer och värderingar som individen internaliserat och gjort till en del av den egna identiteten. Individen är alltså föremålet för sin egen skam. För att bli av med skamkänslan måste individen förändras. På så sätt har skammen också en självutvecklande funktion i Merrell Lynds identitetsteori.

    Introducing social robots in Swedish dementia care: Exploring the interaction between care workers, residents, and robotic cats2020In: Journal of Sociology and Social Work, ISSN 2333-5807, Vol. 8, no 1, p. 8-19Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Social robots are discussed as a solution to new societal challenges connected to the ageing population and increasingly demanding care apparatus. Previous research about social robots in health care has been criticized for being either technophobic or technophilic: overly optimistic concerning the possibility of new technology, or pessimistic about the risk that robotization of care will entail a dehumanization of patients. Contributing with a social perspective to the research about the use of social robots in care settings, the article explores the interaction between care workers, residents, and robotic cats in dementia care facilities. The research design consists of a mixed-methods approach: Qualitative interviews with care workers and quantitative observations of residents’ response to the robot. The findings from the interviews and observations indicate a connection between the performative role of the care workers and the response of the residents when using the robotic cat. From the perspective of symbolic interactionism, the findings are discussed in relation to meaning-making practices of care workers and how they construct the interaction with the residents in new ways, using the social robot as either tools or substitutes for interpersonal contact.

    Working with Robotic Animals in Dementia Care: The Significance of Caregivers’ Competences2023In: Nordic Journal of Working Life Studies, E-ISSN 2245-0157, Vol. 13, no 3, p. 49-69Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Robotic animals are increasingly discussed as a solution to challenges connected to the aging population and limited resources in care. While previous research focuses on the robots’ effect on the patients’ well-being, there is a general lack of knowledge regarding the hands-on experience of caregivers’ use of robots. Therefore, the aim of the study is to explore the competences that caregivers draw upon when facilitating interaction between residents and robots. The study was conducted through ethnographic observations and interviews with caregivers at dementia care homes in Sweden. The notion of ‘competence’ is understood as knowledge about the ways of working and social norms that are valued within a community of practice, which members develop through engagement in the community. The findings show that caregivers’ use of robotic animals as caregiving tools rests on embodied, social, and ethical competences.

    Teacher roles in the blended classroom.: Swedish lower secondary school teachers’ boundary management between physical and virtual learning spaces2018In: Journal of Computer and Educational Research, E-ISSN 2148-2896, Vol. 6, no 12, p. 222-246Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The purpose of the study is to explore how Swedish lower secondary school teachers manage blended learning environments, established through using a specific learningmanagement system (LMS) application. In the study, four teachers were followed during a four-month (n)ethnographic fieldwork. Based on analyses of data from video-recordings and observations in physical and virtual classrooms, the study examines teachers’ practices of integrating and segmenting the two classroom domains. In order to unpack the realms of these practices, the study employs affordance and boundary theories.Through the analysis of participants’ boundary practices and their use of communicative affordances in and across space and time, four teacher roles, enacted and emerging through teaching practices, are presented. The paper concludes with a discussion of how participants’ engagement with virtual and physical learning environment compels teachers to reflect upon their preferred teacher role in the new multidimensional classrooms.

    Caregivers’ use of robots and their effect on work environment – a scoping review2021In: Journal of technology in human services, ISSN 1522-8835, E-ISSN 1522-8991Article, book review (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Despite the lively discussion on the pros and cons of using robots in health care, little is still known about how caregivers are affected when robots are introduced in their work environment. The present scoping review fills this research gap by mapping previous studies about the relation between robots in care and caregivers’ working life. The paper is based on searches in four databases for peer-reviewed articles about robots in care settings, published 2000 to 2020. The 27 included papers were examined with the questions of 1) how robots are used by caregivers, and 2) how robots affect caregivers’ work environment. The analysis shows that the use of robots can affect both the physical and the psychosocial work environment, in positive as well as in negative ways. Robots are used in care settings to reduce physical and mental demands of the caregivers, but they can, in fact, increase caregivers’ workload. Thus, the review indicates that robots can improve the quality of work, but that they seldom work as a shortcut to increased efficiency or time effectiveness.

    Automation and Public Service Values in Human Resource Management2022In: Service Automation in the Public Sector: Concepts, Empirical Examples and Challenges / [ed] Gustaf Juell-Skielse; Ida Lindgren; Maria Åkesson, Cham: Springer, 2022, 1, p. 91-108Chapter in book (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In the field of Human Resource Management (HRM), the interest in Robot Process Automation (RPA) technology is steadily gaining. By introducing RPA solutions in HRM work tasks such as recruitment, onboarding, performance management, payroll management, or administration, the idea is that resources can be freed up for HR professionals to focus on more advanced and strategically oriented work tasks. This chapter provides an updated overview of scientific articles about the usage of RPA within the field of HRM. Moreover, the contribution of this chapter also consists of an organizational contextualization in the form of RPA usage within public service organizations, which has not been addressed by previous reviews in the field.

    Populism’s four driving emotions, and how to cultivate emotions supporting democracy: An interview with Eva Illouz2023In: Sociologisk forskning, ISSN 0038-0342, E-ISSN 2002-066X, Vol. 60, no 2, p. 161-176Article in journal (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    We are delighted to present this interview with world renowned sociologist Eva Illouz. She currently holds the position of Directrice d'Etudes at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in Paris and is the Rose Isaac Chair in Sociology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her research focuses on the interlinkages between capitalism, emotions, gender, culture, love, sexuality, and freedom in the modern world.

    This interview primarily centers around Illouz's latest book but also touches on the role of social media in propagating negative emotions, strategies for cultivating emotions such as fraternity and hope to sustain modern democracy, and the contemporary era marked by societal self-destruction and unprecedented catastrophes.

    Teachers’ perceptions about their responsibility for what pupils do on social media2018In: International Journal of Learning, Teaching and Educational Research, ISSN 1694-2493, E-ISSN 1694-2116, The International Journal of Learning, Teaching and Educational Research, E-ISSN 1694-2116, Vol. 17, no 6, p. 127-143Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Contributing to the knowledge about teachers’ educational use of social media, the aim of this article is to explore Swedish secondary school teachers’ understanding of their duties of care and responsibilities for what pupils do on social media. The article draws on data from a mixed method study, consisting of an interview study and a national survey. The findings from the survey show that some groups of teachers are more likely than others to express responsibility for pupils, especially teachers who use many different social media, those who use them in contact with pupils, teachers working at private schools, and female teachers. The subjective experiences from the interviews are supported by the findings from the survey – indicating a correlation between social media usage and level of perceived responsibility. The more the teachers use social media, and thereby get access to more personal information about the pupils, the greater the likelihood that the teachers will perceive that they have some responsibility for what the pupils do on social media. The meaning of the findings is discussed in relation to the theory of caring ethics.
