    Enkätstudie om: Genusbaserad utsatthet och sexuella trakasserier i svensk högskolesektor
    (Karolinska Institutet, 2022) Rudolfsson, Lisa; Dahlman-Wright, Karin; Löfgren, Lotta; Toropova, Anna; Björklund, Christina; Kungliga tekniska högskolan; Malmö universitet; Nationella sekretariatet för genusforskning
    Det övergripande syftet med enkätundersökningen var att etablera forskningsbaserad kunskap om förekomst och konsekvenser av genusbaserad utsatthet och sexuella trakasserier inom akademin som kan ligga till grund för utvecklande av förebyggande och stödjande modeller och metoder. Studien riktade sig till anställda, doktorander och studerande vid de 38 lärosäten som är medlemmar i SUHF (Sveriges universitets- och högskoleförbund) och genomfördes under maj-juli 2021. I enkäten undersöktes sexuella trakasserier genom två olika beprövade skalor. Enkäten innefattade också beprövade skalor som mäter organisatorisk och social arbetsmiljö, hälsa, utsatthet för mobbning, hat och hot, samt ohövlighet. Därtill innehöll enkäten två frågor kring respondenters uppfattning om deras utsatthet minskat eller ökat under covid-19-pandemin. Andelsskattningar visar att fyra procent har blivit utsatta för sexuella trakasserier under de senaste tolv månaderna. Unga, studerande och kvinnor rapporterar högst utsatthet. Åtta procent har fått kännedom om att andra har utsatts för sexuella trakasserier under de senaste tolv månaderna. Även här rapporterar unga och studerande hög kännedom (kvinnor och män har fått kännedom i ungefär lika stor omfattning). Ett antal olika beteenden som kan tolkas som sexuella trakasserier redovisas bland annat som ett sammanslaget mått. Detta mått har endast kunnat tas fram utgående från analys av primärdata. 38 procent av de svarande uppger erfarenhet av något av dessa beteenden minst en gång (skalan är inte tidsbestämd). Gruppen ”kvinna doktorand” rapporterar högst utsatthet med detta mått. De vanligaste beteendena som rapporterades var ”ställt frågor om ditt privatliv, tittat på dig samt fällt kommentarer om ditt utseende eller ålder på ett obekvämt eller obehagligt sätt”. Syftet med denna rapport är: att beskriva genomförandet av en enkätundersökning om genusbaserad utsatthet och sexuella trakasserier i den svenska högskolesektorn 2021, samt att utgöra en första redovisning av ett urval av data från enkätstudien.

    Ledar – Medarbetarskapsutbyten (LMX) inom Detaljhandeln. Litteraturöversikt.
    (2009-02-24T14:23:10Z) Rudolfsson, Lisa
    Svensk detaljhandel har undergått genomgripande strukturförändringar som medfört förbättrad produktivitet och en kraftigt ökad omsättning. Utvecklingen har bl.a. inneburit ökade krav på butikschefen att vara en effektiv ledare. Föreliggande litteraturöversikt presenterar rådande forskningsläge kring re-lationen ledar–medarbetarskap inom detaljhandeln och dess effekt på olika set av utdata. Internet användes för att identifiera publicerade artiklar inom området, med särskild vikt vid artiklar som använt Leader-member exchange (LMX) teorin. Inom detaljhandeln finns ett starkt samband mellan en butikschefs ledarstil, medarbetarnas kundbemötande, arbetsprestation samt en rad framgångsmått. Antalet studier som använt LMX inom detaljhandeln är dock fortfarande få. Tillgängliga studier är i hög utsträckning konsekvensfokuserade och det råder brist på såväl svenska studier som studier som påvisar kausalitet. Implikationer för vidare forskning diskuteras.

    Walk with me: Pastoral care for victims of sexual abuse viewed through existential psychology
    (2015-01-09) Rudolfsson, Lisa
    Pastoral care can be described as a cleric’s presence with people in their time of need, to promote their well-being and strengthen them in their faith. One dimension of working through an overwhelming trauma, such as sexual abuse, is to find a way to make sense of what has happened and possibly to find some kind of meaning in what has happened. Today, the clergy is identified as an important mental health resource and caring for people suffering from psychological trauma forms an important part of pastoral care. The aim of this thesis was partly to study clerics’ preparedness to, and experiences of, pastoral care for victims of sexual abuse, partly to study what needs victims of sexual abuse bring to pastoral care and their experiences of seeking this help. The aim was also to investigate if pastoral care for victims of sexual abuse could be affected by different aspects of gender, and how the clerical vow of silence was perceived and handled. In Study I the role of gender in the care for victims of sexual abuse was investigated within three Swedish Christian denominations. Questionnaires anchored by vignettes illustrating different abuse situations were answered by 421 clerics. The main findings were that female respondents apprehended the described situations as more likely to occur than male respondents did, and that reported levels of preparedness to offer pastoral care as well as belief in the likelihood of the described situation to occur where higher when a woman was the victim, or a man was the perpetrator. In Study II clerical experiences of pastoral care for victims of sexual abused were studied. Four focus groups with clerics were conducted and analysed using inductive thematic analysis. Participants expressed a wish to offer the best care possible. Insecurities and a perceived lack of psychological knowledge, however, provoked self-protecting strategies that may afflict clerics, confidants, and the outcome of pastoral care. Further, feelings of being caught in a trap where described since the vow of silence prevented actions from being taken. Study III and Study IV were built on interviews with 7 women and 1 man who had been sexually abused and sought pastoral care. The interviews were analysed using inductive thematic analysis. Study III focused on how victims of sexual abuse described their relationship to God and to other parishioners. The main findings were that the informants described feeling abandoned by, and angry at, God and that they sometimes felt excluded from the Christian community. The effects the abuse had on their faith were described as essential to their trauma and, further, as an issue they needed to work through to learn how to live with their experiences. Study IV focused on sexually abused individual’s experiences and perceptions of the benefits and shortcomings of pastoral care, including their experiences of raising faith-related issues in psychotherapy. Main findings were that the informants described their needs to be recognized, their needs to express doubts, and a wish not to be rushed towards forgiveness. They wished for pastoral care givers to gain psychological knowledge and for psychotherapists to gain a deeper understanding about the faith implications of sexual abuse. The vow of silence was described as both making it possible to tell and as sometimes obstructing the cleric’s ability to help the confidant get out of the abusive situation. In summary, results indicate that aspects of gender might affect pastoral care for victims of sexual abuse. In view of existential psychology, pastoral care could have a potential beneficial function for victims of sexual abuse. However, results also indicate that pastoral care for victims of sexual abuse can place both the confidant and the cleric in exposed situations. Consequently, there is a need to support and prepare clerics for this task. Further, there is a need to discuss the consequences of the vow of silence: the burden it puts on clerics and how it affects confidants’ ability to receive help.
