Young immigrants' experiences of inclusion/exclusion in Swedish upper secondary school (English)
Abstract [sv]

Tidigare undersökningar påvisade i sina resultat att immigranter upplever någon form av social inkludering i introduktionsklass, och social exkludering i ordinarieklass. Mot bakgrund i tidigare forskning visades det pågå en samhällsdiskussion om detta ämne, vilket är inspirationen till denna studies forskningsområde. Studiens frågeställningar är formulerade mot bakgrund i att undersöka hur unga immigranter upplever inkludering och exkludering i svensk gymnasieskola i relation till klasskamrater och lärare. En kvalitativ ansats är tillämpad, som använder sig av 10 semistrukturerade intervjuer med tio respondenter, där samtliga respondenter har varit bosatta i Sverige mellan 5-10 år. De teorier och begrepp som stödjer denna studie använder sig av bland annat social identitetsteori av Tajfel och ackulturationsprocess av Berry. De huvudsakliga uppgifterna från respondenterna indikerade att ett positivt bemötande från klasskamraterna, med hjälpsamma och accepterande lärare, bidrog till upplevd inkludering i både SVA-klassen och i ordinarieklassen. De främsta orsakerna till att respondenterna upplevde exkludering i skolan i relation till klasskamrater och lärare grundade sig i otrevligt bemötande med spår av mobbning, samt fördomar som grundade sig i diskriminerande attityder. Vad som framgick av resultatet visade sig att maximal inkludering kunde upplevas i både SVA- och ordinarieklass, men det var ett mindre antal respondenter som upplevde det.

Abstract [en]

Previous surveys showed in their results that immigrants experience some form of social inclusion in introductory class, and social exclusion in ordinary class. Against the background of previous research, it was shown that there was an ongoing societal discussion on this topic,which is the inspiration for this study's research area.The study's questions are formulated against the background of investigating how young immigrants experience inclusion and exclusion in Swedish high school in relation to classmates and teachers. A qualitative approach is applied, which uses 10 semi-structured interviews with ten respondents, where all respondents have lived in Sweden between 5-10 years. The theories and concepts that support this study use, among others, social identity theory by Tajfel and acculturation process by Berry. The main data from the respondents indicated that a positive attitude from classmates, with helpful and accepting teachers, contributed to perceived inclusion in both the SVA class and in the regular class. The main reasons why the respondents experienced exclusion at school in relation to classmates and teachers were based on unpleasant treatment with traces of bullying, as well as prejudices based on discriminatory attitudes. What emerged from the results was that maximum inclusion could be experienced in both SVA and ordinary classes, but it was a smaller number of respondents who experienced it.
