Abstract This article focuses on the ways in which the Danish liberal mainstream press covered events related to the so-called Greek crisis. In particular, we examine the coverage of the different Greek national elections that took place during the Greek crisis years (2010–2019) by Jyllands-Posten (JP), a popular Danish daily newspaper. Qualitative content analysis is deployed to study a corpus of 70 news and editorial articles published by JP on the aforementioned topic. Our analysis highlights the existence of three main interrelated themes in JP's constructions of the Greek elections: a moralist, a culturalist, and a technocratic/anti-leftist theme. These themes are theorised through the use of relevant theory on class cultures and politics today.

The paper presents the results of quantitative and qualitative content analysis of the six most influential daily newspapers in Serbia with a focus on writing about topics that are directly and indirectly related to human rights. It was noted that the selected media content was presented as internal - political thing especially when the question of State responsibility and the measures that have been undertaken by the State were raised, or when the subject of activity of state institutions was questioned. Most often quoted were representatives of the government as centers of political power, though members of marginalized groups were also not absent. The journalists showed sensitivity to marginalized actors of social practice.

Power relations are related to the power of individuals, groups, or institutions over individuals, groups, or other institutions. One party in this case tries to dominate the other party. The asymmetrical relationship is illustrated by the conflict between the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and Indonesian Police (Polri) volume II. This was described in the editorial of Suara Merdeka daily newspaper. This paper discusses how the relations involved in the KPK versus Polri conflict volume II were discussed in the editorial of Suara Merdeka. To examine this relationship, qualitative content analysis methods are used. Qualitative content analysis is a method used to understand the message of a discourse. The relation in the KPK versus Polri conflict discourse volume II is described by Suara Merdeka editors by utilizing linguistic aspects in the form of vocabulary and grammar. Utilization of the vocabulary is in the form of the use of euphemisms and prominent formal words. Meanwhile, the use of grammar is in the form of interrogative sentence and per-sonal pronouns we/us. In describing this relation, the editor put the Polri institution in a dominant position, while the KPK institution was marginalized by the President and Polri institutions.Relasi kekuasaan berkaitan dengan kekuasaan individu, kelompok, atau institusi terhadap indivi-du, kelompok, atau institusi lainnya. Salah satu pihak dalam hal ini berusaha mendominasi pihak yang lain. Relasi yang asimetris tersebut tergambar dalam konflik KPK vs Polri jilid II. Hal terse-but dideskripsi dalam wacana “Tajuk Rencana” harian Suara Merdeka. Makalah ini membahas ba-gaimana relasi-relasi yang terjalin dalam konflik KPK vs Polri jilid II yang dibahas dalam “Tajuk Rencana” harian Suara Merdeka. Untuk mengkaji relasi tersebut digunakan metode analisis isi ku-alitatif. Analisis isi kualitatif adalah suatu metode yang digunakan untuk memahami pesan dari suatu wacana. Relasi dalam wacana konflik KPK vs Polri jilid II dideskripsikan oleh redaksi Suara Merdeka dengan memanfaatkan aspek kebahasaan yang berupa kosakata dan gramatika. Pemanfa-atan kosakata tersebut berupa penggunaan eufemisme dan kata-kata formal yang menonjol. Se-mentara itu, pemanfaatan gramatika berupa kalimat interogatif dan pronomina persona kita. Da-lam mendeskripsikan relasi tersebut, redaksi menempatkan institusi Polri pada posisi dominan, sebaliknya institusi KPK pada posisi yang dimarginalkan oleh institusi Presiden dan Polri.

Introduction Current non-pharmacological treatment options for people with schizophrenia are limited. There is, however, emerging evidence that sensory modulation can be beneficial for this population. This study aimed to gain insight into sensory modulation from the user’s and the treating staff’s perspectives. Method A qualitative content analysis design was used. Transcripts from occupational therapists ( n=11) and patients with schizophrenia ( n=13) derived from in-depth semi-structured interviews were analysed for themes using content analysis. Results Five themes emerged from this study: Service user education on the sensory approach is the key; A variety of tools should be tried; Sensory modulation provides a valued treatment option; There are challenges of managing perceived risk at an organisational level; and There is a shortage of accessible and effective training. Conclusion People with schizophrenia and treating staff had congruent perceptions regarding the use of sensory modulation as a treatment option. The findings suggest that sensory modulation can be a valued addition to treatment options for people with schizophrenia. We suggest further research on sensory modulation intervention effectiveness using quantitative methods so these results can be further explored.
