Young people who commit crimes : A qualitative study on what social workers view as risk factors for juvenile delinquency, the work with these young people and cooperation with other actors (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka socionomers yrkeserfarenheter med ungdomar som begår brott och vilka faktorer de uppfattar kan påverka ungdomarna till att begå brott. Studien har även som syfte att undersöka hur socionomerna arbetar med dessa ungdomar och hur samarbetet med andra aktörer ser ut. För att besvara detta har kvalitativ metod använts och fyra socionomer varav tre fältassistenter och en socialsekreterare har intervjuats. Teorierna som använts till denna studie var teorier om sociala band, systemteori, liberala förklaringar, och konsumtionssamhället. I resultatet av studien framkom teman om social miljö och skola, utanförskap och statusjakt, sociala medier och musik, och hemförhållanden som faktorer som socionomerna uppfattade som riskfaktorer för att ungdomar begår brott. Teman som uppkom om socionomernas arbete med detta var socionomernas arbete med ungdomarna och samarbetet med andra aktörer, och samarbete och stöd till föräldrar. Det framkom vidare av resultatet att det ibland finns svårigheter i arbetet och att barnets bästa inte alltid kom i första hand, samt att samarbetet med andra aktörer ibland inte fungerade som tänkt.

Abstract [en]

The purpose of this study was to examine social workers' professional experiences with young people who commit crimes and what factors they perceive can influence the young people to commit crimes. The study also aims to investigate how the social workers work with these young people and what the collaboration with other actors looks like. To answer this, a qualitative method has been used and four social workers, three of whom are field assistants and one social secretary, have been interviewed. The theories used for this study were theories of social ties, systems theory, liberal explanations and the consumer society. The results of the study revealed themes of social environment and school, exclusion and status hunting, social media and music, and home conditions as factors that the social workers perceived as risk factors for young people committing crimes. The themes that arose about the social workers' work in this area were the social workers' work with young people and cooperation with other actors, and cooperation and support for parents. It also emerged from the results that there are sometimes difficulties in the work and that the best interests of the child did not always come first, and that the collaboration with other actors sometimes did not work as intended.
