Treading a fine line in equitable breastfeeding support
Addressing social inequity in breastfeeding through proactive support
Breastfeeding is subject to social inequity with short-term education and young age being important risk factors of early breastfeeding cessation. Breastfeeding support can be offered reactively, with mothers reaching out, or proactively where a health professional or peer supporter contacts the mother. Reactive support alone may be inadequate and inequitable as individuals with the greatest needs are often less inclined to reach out. An evidence…

The significance of early breastfeeding experiences on breastfeeding self‐efficacy one week postpartum
Many new mothers do not reach their breastfeeding goals. Breastfeeding self-efficacy is a modifiable determinant influenced by prior and new breastfeeding experiences. More knowledge about factors associated with early breastfeeding experiences and breastfeeding self-efficacy would allow us to qualify breastfeeding counselling and increase breastfeeding duration. This study aimed to identify prevalence and factors associated with early negative b…
Focused breastfeeding counselling improves short‐ and long‐term success in an early‐discharge setting
Length of postnatal hospitalization has decreased and has been shown to be associated with infant nutritional problems and increase in readmissions. We aimed to evaluate if guidelines for breastfeeding counselling in an early discharge hospital setting had an effect on maternal breastfeeding self-efficacy, infant readmission and breastfeeding duration. A cluster randomized trial was conducted and assigned nine maternity settings in Denmark to int…

Data were collected from 4815 Danish mothers (68%) who filled out a self-administered questionnaire with open and closed question. Data were analyzed by content and statisti…

What is social justice in Swedish education today? The political governing problem
In this paper, we discuss the concept of social justice in connection with some of the facts and debates about schooling in Sweden. We are concerned about the changing rules surrounding schooling in Sweden, where governing sometimes tends to be in disguise and therefore social and political relations remain unclear. This means an obstacle for social justice. In the introductory section, we give some Swedish connotations on the concept of social j…
I Skyddsängelns gränsland
I traditionell film går berättandet patriarkatets ärenden menar forskaren Teresa de Lauretis. För att fä svar på frågan varför kvinnor ändå roas av att se sådan film, studerar hon berättelser i området där semiotik och psykoanalys överlappar varandra. Kvinnor förförs genom dubbel identifikation, menar hon. Men går det inte att i berättelser direkt rikta sig till kvinnliga åskådar subjekt ? Med hjälp av hennes teorier ser vi filmen Skyddsängeln me…

Person‐positivity bias in political perception
Two samples of Swedish high school student3 rated political party leaders and parties on evaluative scales to test two person‐positivity bias hypotheses: (1) evaluations of persons are more often positive than negative, and (2) individual persons are evaluated more positively than les personal representations of the same object. The hypotheses were confirmed only under certain conditions. Explanations for the bias are suggested
